Andy Kindler October 22, 2009

One show (Thurs) 8p, two shows (Fri-Sat) 8p & 10p, two shows (Sun) 7p & 9p: Andy Kindler is known in comedy circles as a troublemaker. Originally from New York, and now complaining from California, he annoys people all over the world. Andy is often recognized for playing the life affirming character “Andy” on the CBS sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. He is a frequent guest and correspondent (“Man on the Street”) for The Late Show with David Letterman. Each summer at the Montreal Just For Laughs Festival, he delivers the State of the Industry address to a packed ballroom filled with comics and Hollywood “industry” types. He’s famous for his scathing attacks on the world of entertainment, including the previously taboo practice of making fun of his fellow comedians. Just as the comedy boom of the nineties was imploding, Andy wrote the “Hack’s Handbook” for National Lampoon. This “how to” guide satirized and exposed tired comedy formulas. Andy’s other noteworthy credits include the HBO Young Comedians Special, Late Night with Conan O’Brian, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Dr. Katz - Professional Therapist, Home Movies, and The Larry Sanders Show.
