This triple CD + DVD combo contains close to five hours of the best new material from the likes of David Cross, the guys from Stella, Todd Barry, Demetri Martin, Mike Bribiglia, Slovin & Allen, and twenty more. Also included are musical performances from Craig Wedren (Shudder To Think), Marcellus Hall (Railroad Jerk, White Hassle), and Langhorne Slim. This is a comprehensive document of the best of NY stand-up. The DVD compiles over 100 minutes of extra and extended performances, including the famed Fuggedabuddies routine, bonus Eugene Mirman videos, and much more. Comedy Central. 2005. |  |

Laugh A Lot Dec 18, 2005
By Stephen Smith
"Steve"
If you are looking for something truly original for Christmas, this is it. It offers a wide collection of very funny and varied comics. There is something for everyone. Not every comic will have you laughing, but each one has something clever and there will be plenty that hit your funny bone. It is a fantastic gift for yourself or your friends. We all need to laugh a bit more and this CD will make it easy. Pop it in the CD player or the car and you will be smiling and laughing in no time. It gives your friends a glimpse into the funny and often wacky New York comedy scene. And you (and they) will be on the cutting edge. The CD includes well known names, but also the latest up and comers. It has some "grown up" humor so it is not for little kids. Get it or get several and spread the gift of laughter.

A must have for the alt comedy connoisseur Apr 14, 2006
By Sweet Claire I am a huge fan of Jon Glaser, Todd Barry, Mike Birbiglia, David Cross, and Demetri Martin....and guess what? They're all on this album! Thanks to Invite Them Up, I discovered I like the comedic stylings of Andy Blitz, Tom McCaffrey, Jessi Klein, and Aziz Ansari too! Eugene Mirman, I'm endebted to you. You've broadened my comedy horizons. Cheers!

Great example of how difficult comedy must be. Jul 07, 2010
By T. Hunt
"wasabi crush"
As a whole, the collection is a disappointment, but there are some individual performances that absolutely succeeded and are certainly worth a listen. If it were up to me, I'd advise someone buy mp3 versions of these standouts.
Eugene Mirman is always a win and Todd Barry's crowd-interactive routine is notable, but it was Aziz Ansari, to me, that really stood out.
Sadly, I thought David Cross fell flat, and he was the reason I bought the cd.
I was torn between the two and three-star rating because there are some gems, but the album as a whole just wasn't worth my time. There is a definite contrast in performances which created an awkward herd-thinning experience that I probably won't sit through again.
I only burned a few to my itunes and called it even.

A little rough in parts but it has some classic moments Dec 06, 2006
By A. Shantz Granted you have to get on the right wave-length to be able to appreciate a lot of the material but the same is true for most great art an comedy. The Fuggedabuddies part on the DVD stays funny over many repeated viewings. Its just too bad they didn't have Reggie Watts included.
If you like your comedy neat and tidy then stear clear, but you'd miss out on a lot.

Hidden gems among the rough Nov 21, 2007
By J. Wagner There's some great alternative comedy here, but you might have to suffer through Mike Birbiglia and Jessi Klein to get to it. Make sure you check out The Doilies (Zak Orth and Michael Showalter), Aziz Ansari, God's Pottery, Jon Benjamin and David Cross. I don't know if I'd drop $16 on this set, but the used copies here are appropriately priced.
