First Dana Carvey Show Episode Finally Online!
Apart from being able to watch Meet Joe Black on a perpetual loop free and legally, the most exciting thing for me about Hulu has been the availability of the legendary Dana Carvey Show. Sadly and oddly though, the first episode was not initially included. Some say the depiction of Bill Clinton nursing live puppies remains as controversial today as it was when it first aired. Whether that was the case or not, it's no longer keeping the episode off your computer, because it's now on Hulu:

What’s the Dirtiest, Most Offensive Filth Flarn Filth Ever on Comedy Central?
Don't tell The Beeper King, but I prefer my communications to be two-way. That's why I have both a mouth and ears. It's also why there's a second can at the end of the string that runs from my house to Rue McClanahan's. And it's why there are comments on this blog. So let's use them. Here are some questions for you:
What's the dirtiest and/or most offensive thing you've seen on Comedy Central?
What is the dirtiest Reno 911! episode?
What are the dirtiest Crank Yankers calls?
Who are the dirtiest comedians on Comedy Central?
Barring anything with nudity (sorry, Tubgirl!), what are some of the most hilariously offensive and offensively hilarious things that you've seen on the internet?
Put your answers in the comments. But first, here's something to grease your mind-wheels a little:
Has Dane Cook’s Standup Record Been Broken?
Comedy has suddenly become an endurance sport. First Dave Chappelle did a six-hour and 12-minute set. Then Dane Cook bested him, staying onstage for seven hours. And now two lesser-known comics are apparently battling to claim the title.
I mentioned this briefly Tuesday, but a few more details are now available. A Winnipeg standup named Big Daddy Tazz did an eight-and-a-half-hour standup set earlier this week:
He said he decided to break a record set by U.S. comedian Dane Cook who did a 7-hour set at Hollywood's Laugh Factory last December, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., said. However, comedian Robby Wagner gave a 10-hour routine on March 9 at Toso's Sports Grill in Phoenix, an Internet search of news releases showed.
Part of Tazz's 88-page set list included references to his own battles with bipolar depression and attention deficit disorder, the Sun said.
An anonymous comment below the article takes issue with the mention of Wagner's alleged performance and says Tazz has submitted his claim to Guinness. So who really has the record now? Beats the hell out of me, but I predict David Blaine will soon crush all previous records with a 97-hours standup set from inside a shark-infested underwater volcano... on the Moon!
