recommend a comedy

[mahogany]

It's summer, and I feel like being entertained. I want to watch some really good comedies between now and September

I'm going to re-watch So I Married An Axe Murderer. I've never seen it all the way through.

Thank you for your suggestion of Arrested Development! It's the first t.v. show to make me laugh as hard as the Office (UK version). Jason and I have been indulging in a couple of episodes every night after the kids go to bed. Awesome, awesome, show.

I will check out Bottle Rocket and the Darjeeling Limited. Bottle Rocket is available on Netflix, which is a double bonus.

Have you seen 'Lars & the Real Girl'?

I caught it on t.v. a couple of years ago. It's definitely an offbeat kind of a movie, but really sweet, and never mean spirited. I quite enjoyed it.

If you liked a Fish Called Wanda, did you see Fierce Creatures? Pretty much same cast etc.

Have you seen any of the Canadian ensemble comedies, like A Mighty Wind/Waiting for Guffman/Best in Show/For your consideration?

And for standup, Louis CK's "Hilarious" has a few things in it that made me wince, but there is an entire section about parenting that made me laugh so hard I couldn't breathe.

This is awesome! Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't seen any of those.
