Harold Night Highlights 5/20/08

[Castillo]

The Fucking Kennedy's
"You yelled brain cancer?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, the government is over."

The Scam

"You're making me choose between a city I love and a woman I care about."

The Law Firms "mitten" group game, ridicoulous.
"wait what the fuck are stairs?......I'm just gunna climb my rope back up to my room."

really fun night. there was an energy / exhiliration to the whole night that was really cool. the new team harold show was really solid too.
whorenado and the scam rocked their first shows!
yeah great harold night, my brain is too fuzzy for substantial highlights right now, but i loved the 'gotta sign the book for heaven' game; and frusciante's 'just doing god stuff' line before they finished getting up the escalator.

Great Harold night all around. Congrats to Whorenado and The Scam on great debut's.

Kevin Hines' "Don't make me choose between the city I love and the woman I care about" may be the funniest thing I've heard said in improv in the past four years.

And Bangs had a killer show. Top to bottom, kickass, funny supportive, just a great show.

 

[R and R]

This was a really fun night. Great debuts.

The Law Firm: Sue's justification of the group game: Gavin have you unscrewed that bottle yet?

Fran Gillespie was on fire. Her 9/11 realtor was awesome. So dark, so funny.

Pat and Craig's chili-cook off rivals: "By all means, take a nibble."

Great stuff y'all.

two little moments I enjoyed:

Violet, upset after hearing her son was joining Circ De Soleil.
"The circus is one thing, but the gay circus!"

Devlyn calmly chiming in after the terrified President Jon Gutierrez told everyone to leave America and go to Haiti
"There will be a ferry service to Haiti"

I really wish I remembered the exact wording, but Fran's "Do you stop having fun when the sun goes down? Not here!" in the Bangs opening killed me. Fran, sorry that I'm butchering whatever the actual line was. It was hilarious.

Also loved the law firm "mittens" group game.

Great shows all around!

her delivery of that line KILLED me. so funny.

agreed on kevin's, 'the city i love, woman i care about' line. that brilliant combination of being incredibly clever, a great delivery and the perfect game move. loved it.

Gutz reaction to getting shot!!!!

 

[David Siegel]

To echo everyone else, The Law Firm's mitten group game absolutely slayed me. So simple, but still far enough ahead of the audience that I was surprised with each new move...topped off with the hilarious rope to the bedroom.

I also loved The Fucking Kennedy's boardroom scene where no one wanted to get kicked out of the room. And Devlyn's eyes lighting up while probably thinking of how many brain jokes he could make but no one else would get.

 

[Lord Hatsumi]

I think the Law Firm also had the most exciting and most fun opening. When they hit the pattern of "really, you don't know about ....?" god that killed me.

Dang I wish I went

Put Some Clothes On!

I liked the specificity of 10 to 7 in Bangs's vampire group game, and then the immediate group noooo when someone said "I keep thinking about being un-undead."
