I disagree.  His set at the Ottobar was funny, but he just sees more comfortable with sketch comedy rather than stand-up.  And his best bits were essentially sketch material anyway.  I'd say of the three (Leo Allen and Eugene Mirman), his set was the worst.  Still, his mock-Eugene Mirman video was hilarious.
 
 I may go again for Black, but I almost guarantee this won't come close to a Stella show.  Those guys together are genius.

well, then i guess we'll agree to disagree.
 i thought leo allen was adorable and funny, but not as...i don't know...seasoned maybe?
 
 while for me, nothing will ever compare to the state (although stella comes close) i'm kinda fond of michael showalter's nerdy humour and delivery. i even watched the baxter twice this weekend.

That stuff is obviously just about a paycheck.  Capitalism at its most basic level.
 
 Their other stuff is where they are doing more of what they want.

yeah, but you see, I was kind of hoping that the two Michaels would just screw on stage and let us watch for a couple of hours...

I'm assuming that you missed the word "around" in your post.

that would require beating the cuteness of Michael Ian Black & Michael Showalter.  start with tight 70's-style track shorts and thick, thick sarcasm.  good luck on that one.
