I watched a bunch of Nathan For You and the pilot of The Rehearsal and this guy sits right on my limit of awkwardness in terms of comedy. Do the people he’s working with know he’s doing a bit? Is that ethical? Is he doing a bit? Does he even know if he’s doing a bit? What do you even call that kind of comedy (I think Andy Kaufman was the same way in some respects, right?)

I found the pilot of The Rehearsal to be a pretty cool concept. I’ve since ‘spoiled’ the rest of it by looking it up and it seems it veers off in a very specific direction which I don’t know if I’m interested in or not.
