Paul F. Tompkins: Driven to Drink (1999 TV Special) User Reviews

4 pints of Guinness later

[bibimimi · 8/10 · 9 September 2002]

Paul F. Tompkins used to do the scathing 'Us People's Weekly Entertainment Report' on "The Daily Show". I used to not laugh so I didn't miss anything. He is an alumnus of "Mr Show", probably the funniest show there ever was. His anger at stupidity is palpable, but most notably his own stupidity rankles him the most. In "Driven to Drink" he recounts a wasted night at Dirty Frank's in Philly literally sucking on a bar rag. I used to hang in Frank's. I don't doubt this story is true. I had tears in my eyes.

The best from the beginning

He is the very best. My favorite comic of all time. We are blessed to have him in our lives! He is funny and good at drinking too!
