Important things with Demetri Martin


Damn, this show is hilarious! It's got sketches, jokes, diagrams, cartoons, songs...man.  It is  quirky and original (which I find quite refreshing in what is currently lame and repetitive).

Tonight's show is about chairs.  Ensue joke telling: "Why are lions so terrified of chairs?"  and "Why do you always have to sit down for bad news?  Like, 'you'd better sit down, this news is coming in low' or 'I've got really terrible news, you'd better lay down.'"  

Ok, so out of context it majorly loses some funny (and I never claimed to be a writer).  But this guy's got it.  Something about the dry sense of humor and shaggy hair...    Also, he has a lot of other comics on the show!  Tonight there was sketch with David Cross.  Now he's talking about rat balls.  Keeping it classy... 


Yeah, so there are also a lot of youtube videos of his standup.  Ch-ch-check it.
