Since I missed my assignment last week, this is a 2 for the price of 1 recap! Amazing! Last week the comedians were auditioning in Sydney, Australia and in Los Angeles. Those who made it to the semis are Thea Vidale, Sean Perkins, Sarah Colonna, Dante (he won the money and pass) and Jon Reep. In beautiful Australia, captain Australia unfortunately did not make it through, but Gina Yashere, Fiona McLaughlin, Adam Vincent and Lawrence Moody all made it. Please note that it’s the only “foreign” country to have more than three comics going through. What is that all about, I ask?! This week though, it’s time for a new continent! London is up first and the very first thing I notice is Alonzo. And his arms. Dang! Helllo there! Another pleasant or at least interesting or surprising thing is that our host Bill is in London talking to comics. How fun. The first notable comedian of this city is named Spencer Brown. This guy doesn’t need to show his passport, he just says his name and everyone knows where he’s from. I love that. He’s very good at making faces during his set. I like him for some reason. Rob Deb is unsuccessful in his attempt at making the jidges laugh (shout out to our favourite dress challenged sytycd host) when he dares to enter the Harry Potter world of comedy. I don’t think the world is ready for jokes about the book titles just yet. Better luck in 2099. They have a montage on how polite the rejected comedians are after being told they weren’t good enough. Why, cause the Canadians threw food at them and the Aussies swore? Silly stuff. Josh Howie is very Jewish and every single joke he makes is about that. The judges think he’s clever. Maybe not everyone agrees… suspence! Matt Kirshen does indeed look like he’s young but his comedy is actually not that bad. When people heckled him, they go awwww! Teehee. Yes, I just tee-heed. Ava Vidal has good delivery and wants to cash in her babies because Madonna is getting a new baby. Bwaha! Tiffany Stevenson, a blonde woman decided to talk about the show Desperate Housewives and how it would be played out in London. Well, actually, I think that it would be like that pretty much anywhere in the world except Wysteria Lane. NOT funny to me. Andres Caballero isn’t good at performing stand-up comedy. So why am I talking about him? Because he made me laugh more than anyone else! After being rejected, he proceeded to pinch his nipples. I debated writing this part of the recap because of the strange hits we might get from some internet searches… any-who, he says he does that when he’s nervous. I love it! Imagine him being on a date with someone and he can’t let go of his chest! Funny. The judges then get into a “fight” because Ant refuses to let through someone and they proceed to call him Frances/Francis? Well people, we now know what happened to Buckstar. He moved to London, grew a beard, stopped grooming, took an accent and changed his name to Buddy. Needless to say he bombs at the showcase…unless it was clever editing, you never know with these people. The lucky lads moving on are Matt (awww!), Ava, and Spencer. Sounds good to me! Good job, jidges. Blimey, I shall have to write about the city of Gordon Bombay, Minneapolis, tata for now! (A virtual non-redeemable ART dollar to anyone who knows who that is (Canadians excluded in the contest.) Ever the educative show, we learn that if you have accessories in your act, it most likely will be rejected. Even a dude with more accessories than jokes is not going through. Also, it is important to note that if you take chicken little out of your special place, you will not go through but you will appear on national television and disturb millions of people forever and ever. This comic named Lil Rel has a joke about having a 70’s father that goes on and on. He does make me laugh about his mom having a man’s voice because she smokes too dang much. John Evans like to party and drink milk. What? No, he doesn’t. How should I know! He does makes lots of jokes about immigration. Tracey Ashley made me laugh a lot, even if her act is really mean! She wants to call her kid barbecue so that she could laugh every day, because they say that all the fun is gone once you have kids. Well Tracey Ashley, just start to sing, get very famous, take drugs and then you can name your kids after various items, drum sets, brands of food, etc. and no one will tell you off. You’re welcome. What comes next made me go “what?” and while that happens a lot, this seriously shocked me. It wasn’t the fact that Doug Benson came in to audition again (ROBBED! He was robbed!! Segue guy, come on!!) but that he already had auditioned in LA and got sent away! WHAT! Ant of all people thought he wasn’t energetic enough or something. This smells like a setup from miles away but I’ll play network people, I’ll play. Tommy Johnagin is one of those people who look like someone you know. Or maybe that’s just me but dang it bugs me. He says he has a stupid mom! And then he talks about umentionable things done to a cat! I don’t like him… but apparently everyone else does because he wins the “unmentionable company that doesn’t give money in other countries” and free pass. The lucky ladies and gents getting their grove on where MimeAnthony used to wow us all are Doug Benson, Tracey Ashley, and Tommy. That’s it! Three people! Bill kindly tells us that it’s going to be a top 32 at the semis. We still have one city to visit, and that’s Tempe. You all know what that means. One city left to see Buckstar. Cheers, mate. Since I know nothing more than my cat about comedy, sign up to ART and tell me a good joke.
	How ya gonna fix it?
