Chris Rock appeared on Comedy Central’s “Night of Too Many Stars,” a benefit to research and fight autism. Since he has a comedy special coming up on HBO (this Saturday, to be exact), he’s not contractually allowed to do his own standup. So he does the standup of one of his (and my) favorite comedians, Steven Wright. Their styles are completely opposite, but Rock makes it work…

Ah, but you didn’t mention the best part: that a few jokes into the set, Steven Wright himself comes out…and starts doing Rock’s act!
I wanted everyone to be as surprised as I was. Thanks for ruining it, Harris!
I hereby hang my head low and stand appropriately chagrined.
