Celebrity Poker Showdown, 8/5
Tonight at 9 on BRAVO.
Tonight's table features:
Hank Azaria
Seth Meyers
Gail O'Grady
Amy Poehler
Jeffrey Ross
They're really stretching the definition of 'celebrity' with this table. I would only term of these people celebrities: Azaria and O'Grady. I barely know Amy Poehler. I would have had no idea who the other 2 were without their bios on the BRAVO site.

I've been hooked on this show the past couple of weeks. David Cross kills me.
I agree that they bring in B- and C-listers, but it should be an enjoyable show tonight. Azaria and Poeler are both funny and Ross is one of the best comedians out there today, IMO.

I don't know ... I'd consider all of these guys celebrities. Seth Meyers is the only one of the group who isn't really established, but he's been on SNL for, what, 3 years now? I don't see any of the other 4 being more important than the others.
Here's a challenge: find a documentary on any famous comedian (made within the last 10-15 years of course) that doesn't contain interview footage with Ross. That guy is in everything.

That poor tournament director, he had some classic lines against Jeff last night...
Robert (to Jeff): "Basically [Seth] said you're an a--hole."
I've gotta watch that again.

Robert was bringing the funny all night long.
Oh Gail, why did you have to go out so early? She didn't seem to have much of a sense of humor, though.
Ross was hilarious. Poehler is simply *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* *beeping* awesome.
