This is the opening shot from a TV pilot that Zach and I just made about redneck vigilantes who go around blowing up meth labs. We didn’t get picked up, but since I got lit on fire for it, I thought it was worth sharing. No stunt men, no special effects. They just waited until we were about fifty feet away from the trailer and blew it up. We only had one take and I was very nervous, but Zach didn’t even flinch. All in all, one of the coolest things I’ve gotten to do.
Saturday Night Live (11:30 pm on NBC)
SNL is rarely something that I want to watch, but they’ve done everything right this week by having Zach Galifianakis as host and Vampire Weekend as musical guest.
