A Night of 140 Tweets

Wednesday, March 24th, 2010

A couple weeks ago, I took part in A Night of 140 Tweets: A Celebrity Tweetathon for Haiti at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in LA. It was a really fun night for a great cause and it’s now available for download and on DVD, with all of the proceeds going to help build schools in Haiti.

My pal Rob Huebel helped to conceive and organize this unique event, so when he asked me to be a part of it and read one of my tweets onstage I jumped at the chance because Rob has video footage of me in a pony costume, putting out the candles of a birthday cake by urinating on it.

Download it in HD on iTunes ($2.99)

Order it on DVD at Amazon w/ extra footage ($10.99)

$#*! My Dad Says

Friday, March 12th, 2010

I’ve just been added to the cast of the CBS sitcom pilot $#*! My Dad Says, based on the popular Twitter account of the same name. Since august, the account has enlisted more than one million followers and made its creator, Justin Halpern, an internet celebrity.

The show will star the legendary William Shatner as the grumpy father made famous by Halpern. Ryan Devlin will play Shatner’s son, forced to live with his father after losing his apartment. I play Shatner’s other son, who makes his living as a realtor along with his wife, played by my old MADtv cohort and friend, the insanely hilarious and talented, Nicole Sullivan.

The script was written by Justin Halpern along with Patrick Schumacker. Halpern and Schumacker will co-exec produce the Warner Brothers for CBS project along with executive producers, David Kohan and Max Mutchnick, creators/executive producers of Will & Grace. James Burrows is set to direct.

To me, the only thing funnier than the foulmouthed rantings of a pissed off old dude is those rantings coming out of William Shatner’s mouth.

I cannot wait to get started on this show!

Oh, and whatever this video is, it’s awesome.

A Short Message

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Hi. It’s been a while since I’ve posted here on Hamfatter. Sorry. I was doing stuff. The site will be seeing a great deal more activity in the coming weeks and months so please come back often to check it out.

Well, that’s it. Thanks for visiting. I love you. Is that weird?

Oh hey, wanna see a short film my good pal Marshall Cook wrote and directed? I’m in it. It’s about relationships and people talking and that sort of thing. It won “Best Ensemble Acting in a Short Film” a couple years back at something called the Downtown Film Festival in Los Angeles. Sounds fake. He probably made it up. Loser.
