5. Thanks for posting this, that show was a riot!
I especially liked the unknown comic. "Hey, Chuckie Baby! I've got a joke that's gonna make you look stupid! Oh, I see you've already heard it!" Or the time when he said his parents were in the audience and the camera showed two people in the audience with bags over their heads. I know, very sophomoric but funny nonetheless!
