Michael Showalter is funny. Simple as that. Luckily, your opinion doesn't mean shit, so if you happen to disagree, it doesn't matter. Some of you may remember him from
Wet Hot American Summer, "The State",
The Baxter, or the short-lived Comedy Central series "Stella". He runs with the typical David Wain crew: Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Ken Moreno, Michael Ian Black, and so on. Hell, even Bradley Cooper was in WHAM (the above-mentioned movie, not George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley's super awesome music duo).
Anyways, most of these people's careers are burgeoning to some degree or another, either through acting (Rudd/Banks/Cooper), directing (Wain), or writing (Moreno). However, it always seemed I rarely saw anything happen with Showalter.** Fret not, for the tools at College Humor gave him his own bit called "The Michael Showalter Showalter". Classic.
NOTE: This is very similar to Zach Galifianakis's "Between Two Ferns" which is also great, so be sure to check that out as well. I'm quite sure both of these series were developed specifically for people who want to slack off at work.
