Harold Night Highlights 1/13/09

[ProfessorKirk]

The Law Firm's "dying band members" group game was pretty damn funny.

I unfortunately had to warm up and miss Abra's debut, but would love to hear about Bastian's show.

 

[MikeStill]

Bastian--

Oscar: Why are you sitting in my chair?

Abra: Because I have a boyfriend.

I was all like, "Abra has arrived!"

Law Firm--

Fucking awesome organic opening, just amazing.

 

[SixSider]

Ditto on Lawfirm opening. So physical, so fun.

Kevin Hines paranoid.

Bastian's "bringing the family to the boss's for dinner." The freak out explosion of activity killed me. Abra banging her hands on her head and then counting to control herself was my personal favorite moment ofthe night. (I admit I am biased.)

 

[David Siegel]

-Bastian's whole show was great...but WOW Abra owned that stage. Anyone in the audience who didn't know otherwise would have thought she'd been with them for months. The "dinner at my boss' house" scene was A+ stuff.

- Gabrus dying so everyone had to pick him up...or try.

- Absolutely anything Chris Schell said or did in "The Flaming Mo"

 

[Castillo]

-y.

- Absolutely anything Chris Schell said or did in "The Flaming Mo"

Was he the "I'm going to kill you mother/blockbuster guy.?

 

[Toastface]

Barack Obama: Brian, you'd better be watching me or else

Jeff Hiller's Prince song

Law Firm's spectacular opening

 

[ruby sneakers]

porter's brilliant reactions to kevin's assertions that everything was about him. he manages to really BE in the scene, whatever is going on, and continually establishes and reflects the reality of that scene. i am endlessly impressed by what he does.

abra's magical energy during the dinner scene. my heart nearly exploded with gladness.

 

[Books]

I'm John Larroquette! I live in your couch!

 

[chrismck]

Five dollar pizzas.

 

[DigsyMadrox]

Patrick's cat-prov skills in RAGNAROCK.
Jeff Hiller's explanation for why everyone was falling over ("Then I sat on their legs")
Abra's "Because I have a boyfriend" yes-and. So. Great.

 

[PorterMason]

Five dollar pizzas.

Seconded!

 

[Ren]

Watching the audience members react to "dead" members of the Law Firm splayed across their laps. The guy holding Nate Lang's head looked real worried when everyone else came back to life, and he didn't...
