The Green Room with Paul Provenza

The Green Room with Paul Provenza is a talk show on Showtime, hosted by Paul Provenza. It features a panel of guests, discussing various topics about comedy.

At the start of each episode, the camera approaches a stage door in an alley, where one of the season's guests appears, only to warn the viewer off, saying that the event is for "comics only." In another nearby doorway, Provenza motions the viewer in, with the advice to "be cool," then warns, "if you've ever been offended by anything, don't come in." The camera then follows Provenza into the building, via hallways and stairs to a final door, which opens onto the soundstage, where the evening's guests are already in conversation.

- Anyone seen this? Its fantastic and very funny. Comedians talk about comedy and their experiences doing it. Nobody holds back and they often take the piss out of each other. Funny and educational if your have any dreams of doing stand-up. Highly recommended 5*****

Hey guys & girls, get with the programme and check this out.

That's just a link to a TV streaming service which makes you register and asks for credit card details.

I've seen it and I really like it. Sadly it's hard to find episodes here in the UK. :(

You must have done something wrong and clicked on the wrong link. You can watch episodes from that site for free. Try again.

I don't spam. I'm a vegetarian!

I think the links for Series 1 Episode 1 are dead so start with the next episode :)

Sorry Bob, slight op error on my part but I still can't get anything to work because you need Flash and I am an Ipader (or cock as Apple haters say).

Sorted Bob - just watched this on YouTube:

Enjoyed it. Can't work out whether Gary Shandling has overdone the Botox or had a stroke!

I am glad you liked it, you must try to hunt down the other episodes. Each and every single episode is fantastic in its own way. So many great talents and insights, I wish the show was an hour long :)

I wish I had an iPad, they are so much easier to clean than laptops...

Love it - wish there was a UK equivalent.

Paul Provenza's a funny funny man. The Green Room is class.

It was him who sorted out the whole thing of making The Aristocrats documentary too.
