…is “Can’t Sleep with Dave Foley.”
While it’s not the best talk show currently on the air – that honor might go to “The Craig Ferguson Show,” which has upped its ante by adding Tim Meadows as a recurring guest correspondent – it is, to be sure, the best online talk show. (Sorry, Tom Green.) How can you go wrong with a concept that involves Foley (“Kids in the Hall,” “NewsRadio”), who’s suffering from insomnia, offering a monologue in bed as he lies beside his sleeping wife, talking to a “guest” that he finds online via iChat, and enjoying a number from whatever musical guest happens to be conveniently positioned outside his house.
Right now, I’m watching the third episode, where Dave has a virtual conversation with his former”NewsRadio” co-star, Maura Tierney (who looks just as hot in the middle of the night as you’d always hoped she would), then steps outside for a song from Jon Brion…and after that description, you know you want to watch it, too.
P.S. The other two episodes are available for your viewing pleasure at SuperDeluxe.com.
