Last Comic Standing is Back on NBC?

May

2006

Tonight, I see that Last Comic Standing is back. That's strange since they not only cancelled the last season, but never aired the last episode(s): the ones that would have let us know who won. Apparently reruns in August was better than airing an already recorded episode of a new show. Yet, here it is, back on NBC. I hope they at least follow through with this startup this time because I love standup comedy. This is one of the rare opportunities to see standup outside of going to the clubs directly.

Of course, this also brings up the painful fact that I let lastcomicstanding.com expire, despite owning it when the show was cancelled. There wasn't a tremendous amount of traffic while the show was still on and it dropped off pretty heavily in the months afterward, making it a "no brainer" to let it expire. Or not, apparently.

Oh, and if you watched and liked Jimmy Pardo (who didn't go on to the next round), you'll love his podcast which I've been listening to for a few weeks. I was excited to see him on. Sorry you didn't advance, Jimmy.
