Oh my gosh! This show was so funny, my cheeks were hurting before Gary even stepped on the stage.
HILARIOUS
I thought Gary was sooooo funny! I really loved his show! He didnt base his act on voulger humor which alot of comedians do, he based it on real life comedy we all can related to. I always watched him on King of Queens since it's one of my fav show and I watch him when he is on Chelsea Lately and think he is just hilarous!!!!
