Editorial Reviews

Fans of the syndicated 1980s TV series An Evening at the Improv will get a kick out of this commemorative TV special. Budd Friedman, overseer of the Improv comedy club in Los Angeles, takes a back seat to host Robert Klein this time out. Offering their considerable talents to the occasion are such Improv habitues as Billy Crystal, Richard Lewis, Paul Rodriguez, Martin Mull and Robin Williams. This 60-minute video is unrated, but the language gets hilariously salty at times. All-Star Toast to the Improv debuted on the HBO cable service.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great meeting of comic minds, June 2, 2009

This review is from: HBO Comedy Club: An All-Star Toast To the Improv (VHS Tape)

This is one of the funniest HBO comedy shows ever. I watched it many times when I had a tape from its original airing. The interplay between these guys is relentless, and their salute/skewering of the Improv and its owner Budd Friedman is as ruthless as it is inspired. Mull, Crystal and Williams were particularly good.
