They were all onSaturday Night Live, and they all had their own HBO comedy special.
Now theres another to add to the list.
My Favorite Shapesis so truly imaginative and one-of-a-kind.
Sandy Honig
We had a small home, so every inch mattered.
She designed her own clothes, and a lot of our furniture were her creations too.
What to you is funny about shapes?
My favorite moments of this show are when an object is funny and my commentary just reinforces it.
I enjoy when something is funny but we dont fully understand why.
Plus, Im coziest when nested in metaphor.
Some of your stories and anecdotes are rather unique in nature, while others are more personal.
What comes first the shape or the joke?
Many would say getting an HBO stand-up special is a rite of passage for comics how did this happen?

Did Lorne Michaels ask if you wanted to do it?
I had the show, I liked it, and so did HBO.
How was the night of the taping?
Did you experience more nerves than usual?
Anything in particular that you wont ever forget?Same amount of nerves.
A healthy amount I think?
Seeing the chair my mom designed on stage was a beautiful moment.
I thought,oh wow, now that chair is a star.
I think Im at my happiest when creating (or co-creating!)
Sometimes that something benefits from my physical manifestation, sometimes not.
Its worth noting that Dave [McCary] has been a close and dream collaborator.
Were you surprised that either got through and appeared in the live show?
Ive been very encouraged to do work that feels true to me there.
That has been invaluable.
A couple of those pieces were done with queer friends at the show too!
And gorgeous shots of a pool and some very glossy lips.
(Also whats the best way to watch?
Will it also be available dubbed into English?
If dubbed, are you and the other actors doing all of that?
Los Espookysis for anyone willing to hold and inspect a curious, warm show.
Thats an important part of our editing process right now.
(Thats not true I think that would work if youd hear me say it.)
