Party Down (show on Starz)

[Come on, Jason]

Anyone here besides Jouster and me watching this show?  It's maybe the best comedy going right now, but it's on a network I always forget exists.
Excellent cast, especially Jane Lynch, Martin Starr, and Lizzie Caplan (swoon).

Here's episode 1:

It's a really great show, my wife and I have been enjoying it immensely.

Thanks for the heads up.  I hope all the episodes are this funny.

[Regular Joe]

Breathtakingly funny, I agree. I've been watching on ninjavideo.net, because I don't have Starz. The ensemble is amazingly talented, and every cameo has so far been gold.

They are. This is my current favorite show.

It's available on Instant Netflix.

[samir]

i love this show too.

just got picked up for a second season! yay!

this despite the twin inconveniences of 1. being on starz and 2. airing late on fridays.

I was looking forward to the show for awhile and thought the pilot was only so-so, but since then it's felt like every episode is even better than the last. The show might have Jane Lynch's funniest performances yet. I also think the show has had a lot of excellent guest stars that work well (JK Simmons, Rick Fox, etc)

Sources tell us exclusively that Starz has renewed Rob Thomas' hilarious half-hour dramedy about cater waiters in L.A. for a second season. With the possible exception of Jane Lynch, who is over on Glee now, all of the main castmembers, including Adam Scott, Lizzy Caplan, Ken Marino, Ryan Hansen and Martin Starr, are expected to return.

I mirror the positive sentiments of the thread. Ken Marino has been terrific in this show.

I watched the first two episodes on the netflix last night. It's very good. Thanks for the heads up. I'd never heard of it. I like it a lot even though it hits a little too close to home.  Great cast!  I noticed Paul Rudd is an executive producer on it as well. And Ken Marino does a great job of carrying a show.  Too bad he's probably getting paid a thousand bucks an episode or something.
