Editorial Reviews

Billy Gardell, the star of CBS’ hit comedy "Mike & Molly," has appeared in dozens of television series, including "Yes, Dear," "My Name Is Earl," "The King of Queens" and "Desperate Housewives." But his first love (apart from his Steelers) has always been stand-up comedy where his disarming no nonsense approach to life continues to sell out comedy clubs and theaters nationwide. Now Billy returns home to Pittsburgh, where all the funny began for him, in a one-hour live event that celebrates working-class America.

ON CHILDHOOD: “Kids today get to do whatever they want. My Dad’s answer for everywhere you ever wanted to go was ‘they’re closed.’”

ON MARRIAGE: “After 10 years of marriage, dinner and a movie don’t cut it. After 10 years, you gotta say stuff like ‘Who wants new floors?’”

ON HALFTIME: “I’m 40. I’m at halftime in my life, and I played a sloppy first half. You know you’re getting old when you hurt yourself sleeping.”

5.0 out of 5 stars Halftime is awesome, February 5, 2011

This review is from: Billy Gardell: Halftime (DVD)

I'm from Pittsburgh and and have seen Billy live over 10 times. I've been a fan of his since he was on Lucky. I love this guy and was at both shows for the taping of this special. Yes I'm biased but he is one of the funniest guys I've ever seen. He's awesome in person too. It's nice to see a hometown boy make it big. But in all honesty, this is a great comedy special.

I saw this special when it was taped and let me tell you this guy is HILARIOUS. Everything that came out of his mouth had me laughing. He's totally relatable AND clean enough for the whole family to enjoy it. Definitely check this one out... I can't wait to get a copy on DVD!
