It's a comedy interview DOUBLE SHOT! First up, Maria Bamford. She's one of the biggest and easily one of the funniest comedians working today. Maria has appeared on The Comedians of Comedy tour, Louie, and in somewhat unsettling Christmas commercials for Target. We climb inside Maria's head in a revealing interview. Hannibal Buress recently starred in the Comedy Central special, Hannibal Buress: Animal Furnace, and is a former writer for SNL and 30 Rock.
You may have seen comedian Maria Bamford recently as a guest star on Louie (fX). She's got recurring roles on the re-booted Arrested Development (Netflix), Tim & Eric: Awesome Show and Check It Out (both Adult Swim). Maria, a Duluth, Minn. native, is the first female comic to have two half-hour Comedy Central Presents specials. Movie producer Judd Apatow (Anchorman, Knocked Up) has said of Maria, "I've seen a lot of comics and it takes a lot to make me laugh really hard. And she definitely makes me laugh super hard."
Hannibal Buress has made prime-time appearances on Louie and on 30 Rock, and he's worked as a writer for 30 Rock and Saturday Night Live. Chris Rock says Hannibal is "the funniest young comic [he's] seen in years." Hannibal released his debut comedy album, My Name Is Hannibal, in 2010. His latest Comedy Central special is Hannibal Buress: Animal Furnace.
