The Funniest TV Shows According to Paul Rudd, Tracy Morgan, and Zach G

Birthday Cat is a notoriously tough crowd.

So apparently GQ’s latest issue is the comedy issue, and they assembled Tracy Morgan, Zach Galifianakis, and Paul Rudd to talk about what they find humorous. And while I like the entire article because it’s a bunch of funny dudes making jokes, I thought I’d share this exchange about which TV shows they think are funny:

GQ: What TV show do you think is funny?

TRACY: Brandy & Ray J.

PAUL: Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, that’s really funny. [especially when Rudd's on it -Ed.]

ZACH: I think if they put a laugh track on Intervention, it would be funny.

PAUL: Have you seen Hoarders?

TRACY: Hoarders is serious stuff, man.

GQ: There’s enough there, enough hoarders in the world, for there to be a whole season on TV about it?

PAUL: You have no idea how many hoarders there are. You could throw a stick and hit a hoarder anywhere.

TRACY: You gotta look at Lockup.

GQ: What’s Lockup?

TRACY: Oh man, this is subculture. Interesting. Guys washing their T-shirts out in toilet bowls.

ZACH: I don’t know if this is being racist or something, but there’re never any Asians on that show.

TRACY: Never! They don’t go to jail.

ZACH: Why? Why?

PAUL: They’re all too busy hoarding.

Oh man, “Intervention” with a laugh track. Internet: make it so.

Also, the excerpt above led directly to this exchange, which was my favorite in the interview:

GQ: All right, speaking of races, what’s the funniest race?

PAUL: The Iditarod.

Oh, Paul Rudd. I’m a little bit gay for him.
