Patton Oswalt has expanded his world from comedian to writer to actor and now hes producing the movie, The Comedians of Comedy and the Comedy Central show of the same name. This new reality series follows four of the funniest comedians working today, Maria Bamford, Zach Galifianakis, Brian Posehn and Patton Oswalt, on their US tour. Director Michael Blieden has also taped them backstage and preparing before each show.
Showtime? Motherfucker. I thought the movie was in theaters.

I love Patton.
I saw him in Falls Church, VA in the spring, and we drove up to Baltimore for the show that appeared in the first Comedians of Comedy episode. The show sold out before we arrived, though.
I've watched the documentary about 5 times in the past couple of days. It's one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life.
I knew a lot about Brian Posehn, Zach Galifianakis and Patton before seeing it and I'm a big fan of all three....especially Zach. I think I saw Maria Bamford once before but didn't know much about her. She's fucking brilliant. I can't wait to see more of her.
It's a really fantastic film. I'm so glad Patton did it.
I think his reputation is hurt by being on a really shitty show. I know it probably pays the bills, and I don't begrudge him the money, but, god damn, does that show suck ass.
There are just so many of these lame sitcoms featuring a fat, dopey guy with a hot wife, and I can't tell a damn bit of difference between them.
