"A woman in the audience has decided to get up, go to the front and try out her stand up comedy on us. It’s not good."

Kat Wood must be a biologist.

Everyone has a dream in LA. Hope she gets that house in the hills one day.

The funniest part was the Larry David music at the end.

In LA it's ABA- Always Be Auditioning.

I give her credit for trying it. Ya gotta at least try.

Geoff Matthews said...

Shoot your shot. She tried.

Things I would never do:

1. Go to an AMC theater - except as a favor
2. Wait around while they "fixed the projector"
3. Listen to a comedy act by an unknown person.

At least she didn't do a rap song.

Nice figure. Definitely a Woman.

madAsHell said...

Gee, I wonder who broke the projector??

rehajm said...

Golly…

Tough crowd.

There’s a legend, possibly true, that at the old Harvard Square theater the audio failed during a showing of Casablanca, and a couple in the audience went to the front and spoke the lines verbatim in sync with the video.

"Kat Wood must be a biologist." And a critic.

I had an event like this happen when I was in college, but the lady doing the impromptu stand-up was awesome. I still remember it as one of the best laughs of my life. Credit to this lady for trying, and credit to Burbank for having the cinema open for something like this to happen. But like rocean, why go there?

Rabel said...

Not good, but better than Cory Booker.

Skeptical Voter said...

Actually the AMC theater in Burbank is in a building that also has a live comedy club. But the AMC theater is 3 floors up. But the lady was close, but since her material apparently wasn't great she may not get a gig at the comedy club.

Hope she wasn't on a first date.

"Nice figure. Definitely a Woman."

Careful Howard, it's LA. Are you a biologist?

Someone should’ve yelled “FIRE!” 🔥

gspencer said...

If thrown popcorn can get your shot dead in a theater, then so too this bad comedy.

On the plus side, she has a nice shape.

Wince said...

The projector is broken, they’ve been working to fix it for 30 minutes.

"I hate when that happens."

So I took my um ...

Self-guiding movie projector?

Yeah! And you know the slot where the film feeds in?

Yeah

Well I put my tongue in there, you know, just to see how far in I could get it to go

Yeah

Well I switched the machine on and my tongue started going into the machine. It was wild, it was threading all around. It was going up and down and all around. But then it got jammed. Me tongue was resting against the um ...

Red-hot projector bulb?

Right. And I started smelling smoke. It was like I was cooking up a whole batch of uh ...

Country-style patty sausages?

Yeah. And I couldn't get it out, it was jammed. So I reached for one of those um ...

Shrimp-forks?

Yeah, and I just plucked it out of there. Boy! I hate when that happens

I know what you mean

Oo!

Ow!

Ouch! I hate when that happens

Tell me about it

Red-hot projector bulb?

Oh mann….in the mid-80s some high school friends of mine worked in the box office at Proctors Theatre in Schenectady, so I got to sit in the front row with them for Billy’s show. The girl next to me did this routine with him…and she seemed to know it better than Billy.

Hot/Crazy well above unity.

Type II fun for Wince.

I've been watching the recent Adele special over the last couple of days (I have a short attention span). I do love her songs, but there are several times when the audience sings along and nearly drowns her out. No one's paying to hear the audience sing, or in this case to have someone in the audience perform!

Howard said...

She's a New England 8.5 and an LA 6

Lurker21 said...

Soon enough the only movie theaters left will be in places like LA where everybody thinks they're in show business ...

effinayright said...

I tried the same thing once.

My opening line was:

"So a baby seal walks into a club...."

Didn't go over well.

farmgirl said...

I got cringe bumps.
Not because of her:
4her. But hey, that’s me.

You go…. Girl. Heh.

Iman said...

Howard once tried his hand at the comedy thing:

“Good evening, ladies and germs! Hit me, beat me, make me write bad checks!”

At that point, it all went downhill for Howard…

Would that be beautiful downtown Burbank, where Rowan and Martin introduced Tiny Tim to the world?

Rollo said...

Her name is Tiffany King. She won a date with Chris Kattan on The CelebrityDating Game (Second Prize two dates with Chris Kattan?). No word on whether she is actually bipolar or just attention starved.

Bobmac said...

Women are like pornography. I can’t define it, but I know one when I see one.

farmgirl said...

Effinayright: smh

I just got your opening line.
Woman enough to admit it2.
