Yeah, the whole hour-long thing shouldn't be a big deal when you take the time of all the video clips out. That probably won't allow for the whole show (as in, all the songs performed) to be aired, but the DVD version sounds like it will include all performances from whichever show.

Anyway, I will definitely be tuning in to see the broadcast!

It's not unprecedented. VH-1 aired a cut down WAY Live.

Won't be a problem at all.
You have quickly thought up such matchless phrase?

Even the Twitter reports on these shows were really glowing. A lot of fans had their socks knocked off there. I'm really looking forward to this.

Thanks for the info, Jeremy. I'm glad to see Al finally getting to do something with Comedy Central. It would be nice if he could get on either The Daily Show or The Colbert Report to promote this. Heck, maybe Comedy Central could be the new home of Al TV. It seems like a pretty natural fit.

I wonder if this was shot in HD. I know Comedy Central has an HD channel, so it certainly seems possible. It would be cool to see this in HD, and I'd love a Blu Ray release.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

Yes please. I'm sure the gals (my wife included) wouldn't mind if it was a 3D Blu-ray as well, although I don't see them going that far with it. Comedy Central usually only releases standard DVDs.

I'm looking forward to the DVD release, but an hour on Comedy Central is really only 35 minutes when you edit out the ads.

Was there a meet and greet between shows, or did Al just stay inside?

Someone on Twitter mentioned that he didn't come out after the 3 PM show. My guess is that he stayed in the venue to get ready for the next one.
