Sarah Silvermancorralled a whole bunch of funny friends, including Seth Rogen, John C. Reilly, Key & Peele and Tig Notaro, to contribute to the inaugural episode of Rubberhead, a new comedy variety showfrom Vimeo and the comedy collective JASH.
Silverman hosts the first episode, and as she succinctly introduces itin the trailer, Welcome to a night of weird. The succession of clips includes everything from Rogen and Silverman engaging in some some high-octane cop action to a man with a weirdly shaped head chucking a Big Gulp at an innocent pedestrian. If you want all that plus a bouncy castle the entire 45-minute episode is available to buynow for just $4.99.
In a statement, creator Daniel Kellison described Rubberhead as a no holds-barred show without the middleman. What you see is the comedy created wholly by the artist, without interference from executives or networks or standards and practices. We put our full trust in our artist partners. Nothing is off-limits.
