Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis

Probably one of the funniest things I've watched recently - available on You Tube or Funny Or Die.

For those who haven't seen it, it's basically a fake chat show with some really big name guests - Sean Penn, Bruce Willis, Natalie Portman, etc.

Each episode is only about 5 minutes long, so you have no excuse not to watch them. Beyond recommended.

A good find RC.

Have just watched this one... http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/5ef1adb57b/between-two-ferns-with-zach-galifianakis

These are great, the Charlize Theron one is brilliant. People should try and check out Galfianakis doing stand up, too; his 'Live At The Purple Onion' is great.

Or dig out 'The Comedians Of COmedy' documentary, where he went on tour with people like Patton Oswalt and Maria Bamford; he's a proper oddball.

Love the Natalie Portman episode -

'You shaved your head for V For Vendetta, do you also shave your V For Vagina?'

And when he looked down at her dog and said 'My penis is bigger then that.' I lost it big time.

'I hope your dog dies'. Laughing out loud

I watched these a while ago now, some of them were hilarious.

These are produced and directed by, I think, Scott Aukerman. He just had an odd pretend chat show/sketch 'thing' on TV in America that features all sorts of great comedy people. It's called 'Comedy Bang Bang', and if you like a bit of oddball comedy, it's well worth a look.

I had some concern that this was going to be about threesome with Britten and Cotton.

I was gonna jump in with this, I know some people appreciate Mr. Show and basically half the Mr. Show cast appeared on the IFC series. There's also a podcast http://www.earwolf.com/show/comedy-bang-bang-podcast/
