This Week In Comedy: Esther Povitsky stars in the new comedy movie, Drugstore June, supported by stacked cast of stand-ups & influencers including Bill Burr, Bobby Lee, Haley Joel Osment, Trevor Wallace, Beverly D’Angelo, James Remar, Miranda Cosgrove, Matt Walsh, Al Madrigal, and many more. Povitsky plays June, a wannabe influencer who's juggling multiple problems: her parents want her to move out, her ex-boyfriend accuses her of stalking him, and two detectives think she may be involved in the robbery of a local pharmacy.
Also happening this week: it was around this time ten years ago former Weekend Update anchor Seth Meyers graduated from his tenure on SNL to the Late Night slot on NBC, which celebrates its tenth anniversary tonight with the show's first guest, Amy Poehler (we're placing our bets that Poehler will FOR SURE be under the desk).
And finally, a great lineup of comedy specials and albums coming out this week from Donnell Rawlings, David Cross, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes & more!
