Attell is amazing. It's annoying how when you go to open mics all across the country you see new guys either trying to replicate his image or Louie's. But Dave is incredibly funny and incredibly underrated. He's so quick too and his energy is just nonstop. Reminds me a lot of a young Carlin. Glad he's got this show and it sucks that Dave's Old Porn didn't work out and that he lost a lot of money on it.
Insomniac was a great show. You can still watch the episodes on youtube. He did like three in New York. Most of the eps fly by. This was back when comedy central had some quality programs at least
One of my all time faves. I was shocked one show when Jimmy and one of the other comics I don't remember just kept nailing him left and right. Don't know if they caught him off guard or what but it took him a bit to start giving back.
Just found out that he'll be performing here in Buffalo here next May. Going to start boning up on past clips now, really didn't know much about him except for his failed attempt at The Gong Show.

I dont think its annoying. Its standard. Everyone does it. But rhey usually find their own voice if they make it.
Jimmy still sometimes sounds like a colin open micer.

Greatest line in the history of the show. Period.

I still hold Skanks For The Memories as one of my all time favorite comedy albums.

"I hate to travel, I think it's because when I was a kid, my dad would beat with me a globe." One of my favorite lines of all time.

I wish Attell had a bigger ego and was a bigger self-promoter... it wouldn't be him, but he deserves the success.

He was great on Dr. Katz and his Comedy Central specials and all that stuff. He should absolutely be bigger. Maybe he's about to finally blow up.
