DVD Reviews of The Upright Citizens Brigade: Asssscat!
DVD Review: If you like improv buy Asssscat.
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have seen long form improv comedy before and know what to expect, ASSSCAT! is an incredible show. If you haven't and you're willing to give long form improv a fair shot, this is the best place to start; it's the funniest improv show I've ever seen. Matt Besser, Amy Poelher, and Sans are all involved. Need I say more? Poehler, by the way, never stuck out for me on SNL, on ASSSCAT! she's the sole woman performer-- and she's darn funny. For the curious, ASSSSCAT! features a guest monologist [Will Arnett and Kate Walsh among the more famous ones], whose story is then followed by a bunch of scenes. It's great improv, it's funny, and even your friends who like extremely mainstream comedy should be able to enjoy it.
If you are an improviser, if you teach improv, or if you are even vaguely interested in the techniques that are used in improvisation, order this DVD one-day shipping. Amazing. While there are interviews with the cast members, they're basically filled with only somewhat interesting stories and the answer to the question you'll soon be asking "why ASSSSCAT!?" [the short answer is that it's something Horatio said]. Anyway, the real gold, and I do mean absolute gold, is the very serious and technical commentary on the set by Besser, Walsh and Ian Roberts. The guys lament that they can't be funny, but what you get is far better: people who are hilarious explaining why they're hilarious. Absolutely must-have.
If you don't buy it mini Roger Federer may run up an orifice of yours. Yes, that's a reference you'll get later.
