NerdMelt Showroom

December rolls ahead. Football playoffs are around the corner, all the holiday video game releases are on store shelves, family is coming to town, TV shows have their special holiday episodes all ready… it truly is a magical time of year. And this week at the NerdMelt Showroom is no exception, with two chances to see Dan Harmon (at Harmontown and Friday Forty) and Conan’s writers swinging by to bring their books to life at Team Coco Presents Authoritatively Funny!

Saturday at 5:00 is Anomaly Table Read!

Anomaly is an epic science-fiction adventure created by Skip Brittenham and Brian Haberlin, with art by Haberlin and Geirrod Van Dyke. Come celebrate the Los Angeles launch of Anomaly with its creators and an all-star cast reading from this exciting and ground-breaking graphic novel.

Saturday at 8:00 is Horrible Movie Night!

If you like movie riffing DIY-style, then join us for this MST3K/Rifftrax style show that invites YOU to help make fun of the worst movies ever. Come up with the best one-liner of the night and you could win a prize! Your hosts John Mathot (Phineas & Ferb) and Susan Wright (The Because Show podcast), along with the hilarious improv team Capitol T, will present a most horrible feature!  So come on down to see a movie from the naughty list!

$8 in advance, $10 at the door.

Sunday at 7:00 is The Nerdist Open Mic!

Matt Mira of the Nerdist Podcast and Paul Cibis host this comedy free-for-all. You’ll see brand new comics, comics you know and love trying out new material (Chris Hardwick and Kumail Nanjiani are frequent drop ins), and the magic that is live comedy. Sign up at 7pm, lottery at 7:30!

FREE!

Monday at 8:00 is Harmontown!

What is Harmontown? It’s awesome. It’s unique. It’s one of a kind. It’s something only Dan Harmon (creator of Community and the upcoming Rick and Morty) and Jeff B. Davis (Whose Line is it Anyway) can do. It’s a different show every time and it’s every week. Lucky us! Playing Dungeons and Dragons? It’s happened. Dan Harmon freestyle rapping? Yup, that too. Calling Chevy Chase from stage? Happened…more than once. A celebrity guest? Allison Brie, Donald Glover, and Gillian Jacobs among others have all stopped in. Getting super personal with an intimate audience? Always. It’s Harmontown. It’s awesome. It’s unique. Don’t miss a single week.

$10.

Wednesday at 8:30 is The Meltdown With Jonah and Kumail!

The weekly popular standup show, hosted by Jonah Ray and Kumail Nanjiani, hosts the best standups in the country as well as amazing acts you haven’t heard of quite yet but should! Plus there’s original art each week, surprise drop-ins, and sometimes a puppy!

Thursday at 8:00 is This Show Is Your Show! With Matt Bennett!
