the oh-no! DVD of the week: ‘Live Nude Comedy’

How much do you wanna bet that no comedians are nude here? Cuz who doesn’t want to see some pudgy naked guy shuffling around onstage while he bitches about how his girlfriend won’t go down on him, airline food sucks, and geez, these kids today, with their sexting?

What’s that? No takers to my bet?

Smart move.

Turns out that on this Showtime series, not only are the comedians not nude, the random anonymous dancing girls who are supposed to be enticing all the dudes to tune in and get their rocks off aren’t nude either.

So like most items that use words like “nude” in their titles, it’s basically a case of bait-and-switch.

I’m sure that’s not the only issue you have with this DVD but I guess it’s nice to know that you’re looking out for all the young male heterosexual voyeurs who might normally be tempted to buy such an item. Who would have ever thunk it?

P.S. Is the misspelling of “nude” in your title intentional?

You mean there’s still a market for actual nude comedy? Quick, somebody teach Megan Fox some duck jokes!

Forget “Nude”.

It’s not “Live”, since we’d be watching a recording.

Hey, that’s faulty advertising!

@JoshDM: I’m hearing Linda Richman’s voice in my head: “This live nude comedy is neither live nor nude. Discuss.”

No. And it’s fixed now.

It could be worse. Dane Cook could be on the DVD, performing nude standup.

Actually, I’ve never seen Dane Cook perform, but as far as I can tell, you’re not allowed to have a discussion thread on the Internet unless someone insults Dane Cook.

You are fucking awesome. That is all.
