Comedians Of Comedy Biography

The Comedians of Comedy is an occasional stand-up comedy tour featuring alternative comedians Patton Oswalt Zach Galifianakis Brian Posehn and Maria Bamford that was documented in a 2005 film and 2005 Comedy Central television series of the same name both directed by Michael Blieden. Recently Zach Galifianakis left the tour and has been replaced by comedian Eugene Mirman.
The idea behind The Comedians of Comedy — its name a play on The Original Kings of Comedy and similar tours — involves the comedians performing at smaller indie rock venues instead of comedy clubs. Playing indie rock clubs was an idea taken from anti-comic Neil Hamburger who is considered a pioneer of this type of show playing such clubs since 2000. Both the film and television series alternate between footage of the comedians on stage and other aspects of their lives on the road.
The film The Comedians of Comedy shot during the fall of 2004 had its world premiere at the South by Southwest film festival in March 2005. It is one of the first films to be financed by the DVD-rental service Netflix also the film's distributor.
The film inspired Comedy Central to commission a six-episode Comedians of Comedy television series involving a six-city tour during the summer of 2005; the show premiered in November of that year. The episodes were shot in Baltimore New York City Philadelphia Atlantic City Boston and Martha's Vineyard. The series was notable for providing some publicity for Robert Kirkman's comic book Invincible which Oswalt spoke about during the first episode while shopping at a comic book store.
