Comedian watch: Anothony Jeselnik

Anthony Jeselnik

If you haven’t seen him, or at least heard of him, you should.  Though Anthony Jeselnik is no rookie in the comedy circuit, only recently has he started to make a name for himself.  How is he making such a name for himself?  By being one of the most hilarious assholes on the modern comedy scene.

His jokes have controversial subject matter, ranging from suicide to abortion, and can be seen/heard as cruel and downright appalling.  In a 2008 interview, Jeselnik, in his own defense, says his raunchy approach to comedy is purposeful and smart.

Check out a preview of his premiere album “Shakespeare,” which is set to be released on Tuesday, September 21, and is sure to be utterly offensive and brilliant.

    My god is Jeselnik one dirty, dirty comedian. His stand-up is hysterical and is not one of the more known stand-up comedians, but really deserves credit as being one of the best of today.

    I thought he was really funny when I saw him. He kind of fits into the same category as Daniel Tosh with his political incorrectness. To me, the more over the top, the better.

    This is a little long for an interstitial, but good. You should check out Splitsider, which Adam Frucci (ex-Gizmodo) just launched. 4/4
