One of the cleverest folks I've met in the last few years is Josh Robert Thompson, who was so brilliant as Geoff Peterson and a whole cast o' characters on The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Unlike most of what passes for a talk show these days, that series was largely improvised and Josh was amazing in how fast 'n' funny he was. I've seen some of the best improv performers in the world so it takes a lot to impress me…and he sure did.
What's Josh doing now? He's been producing the pilot for The Josh Robert Thompson Show, funding it up to a point with his own money. I've only seen as much of it as you'll see in this video but it looks terrific and as you may have figured out by now, I think the guy's real good…so I want to help the thing along; ergo, my own donation and this plug.
They're financing the last stages of it with an Indiegogo campaign, asking for donations. They already met their primary goal and are now going for a "stretch" goal to make the product even snazzier. Here's the video. Here's the link. I don't promote many of these things but I thought this one was worth my support and, I hope, yours…
