05.28.09 ‘FUNNY PEOPLE’ HAS BO BURNHAM, VIRALS
Much like Tropic Thunder, it’s looking like the best part the upcoming Judd Apatow-directed Funny People might be the virals and fake movies within-the-movie. These videos (above and below) are the latest to hit the web. They’re from the (fake) TV show starring Jason Schwartzman’s character – a self-obsessed NBC TV star on a show called, “Yo, Teach…!” (I’m assuming they’ll eventually be part of the DVD extras). You may notice that one of Schwartzman’s students is Bo Burnham, the painfully dorky YouTube rap sensation with whom Apatow is supposedly writing the “anti-High School Musical.” It’s not that I’m not impressed by this kid’s songs, it’s just that his comedy is… different. It’s the kind of comedy that says, “Let’s never hang out*.”

*yes, I stole this line from Dmitri Martin. I was hoping you wouldn’t scroll all the way down here and expose me.

Fucking hell, I just recognized the principal in the second clip – that’s Roger from What’s Happening?.
God damnit, Apatow, get an actress’ bra off once in a while and you might just have yourself a lifelong fan over here.
I’m with Peet. Needs more boobs. Everything is better with boobs.
Sorry, Lince, this is just a little too…”Cinema Fairy” for Him. The Mighty Feklahr leans a little more towards “Enema Hairy”.
Marshall Mathers : growing up with no father :: Bo Burnham : growing up with two fathers
I don’t think I did that right, but you get the point….
WTF did everyone go, did someone pull a fire alarm?
I’d love to see “The More You Know” promos for a show called “Yo, Reach Around!”.
The first video taught me to hate Zach Braff. I already knew that yo.
I heard a silly rumor that Jason Schwartzman doesn’t own a jacket without patches in the elbows. Haha. That’s not true, is it guys? Because that would make him a hipster, and hipsters go to hell.
Jason Schwarzman is not A hipster. Jason Schwarzman is THEhipster.
Fuckin oiPhone. Insert spaces where necessary.
is that the set from “Head of the Class”?
He satisfies the Jewish dwarf fetish in all of us.
