Return of the Love Machine

  • Uncategorized

After a three week Winter break, the ACME players (including yours truly) retun to the stage tonight.
That’s right, people! We’ve turned the ACME Love Machine back on, and tonight we’re cranking it up to eleven.
Now let’s be honest, we live in Los Angeles, and when that weird watery stuff falls from the sky, we like to stay home and enjoy WEATHER WATCH!!! on the local news, but I’ve seen tonight’s WEATHER WATCH!!!, and the truth is . . . it kind of sucks. It’s pretty much a rehash of last week’s WEATHER WATCH!!! with a few new shots of that flooding street out in Devore. Your time would be much better spent enjoying the Love Machine. Trust me. I’m totally impartial on this one, folks.
Of course, if you have a Love Machine of your very own, you probably wait months for a night like this so you can stay home and crank it up. If you’re one of those people, enjoy the Cinemax. We all hope to see you at the show next week.
WHAT: ACME Love Machine
WHERE: Acme Comedy Theatre
135 N. La Brea
Hollywood, CA 90036
(323) 525-0202
WHEN: Tonight, 8 pm.

    The “weird watery stuff” falling from the skies over the Land Of No Opportunity has been frozed or it’s wite and flutters down happily and is still on the ground, making camp. Tomorrow’s highs is suppoes to be 59, then we have some more frozen and white stuffing falling the next day.
    Kansas weather gets a bit confused about what month it is in the winter time. One day it will think it’s May, the next it’s convinced itself it’s Janurary. It’s a bit frustrating for those of us who have to try and keep up with it’s latest whim.

    Wil thanks for your help earlier about the Track Back…really I am on a good track now. Good luck tonight, hopefully I will be able to see you this summer when I come out to visit family. But atlas work keeps me busy as usually. Let me back track that good luck and say break a leg.

    I wish I lived in CA, but alas I am here in Chicago where it’s really cold and there is half melted snow on the ground.
    It would be cool if some day you all could come up to Chicago *bats eyelashes 🙂

    Hey Veronica Knight
    I am from Kansas!(Currently living in Chicago at the moment) Overland Park to be exact.
    and I totally agree with you about Kansas whether. Just wait 5 minutes it and will change to something you either do or don’t like,lol.

    You talk about your shows so much! I wish i could go see them (being in canada I’m hard pressed to even find your books 🙁 ) you need to come up to the great white north and bring your books and stories with you so all your loyal fans can see you/read your stuff/get a autograph… well it’s just a suggestion! 🙂 have fun eh?

    Off Topic: Just got the Journal today and have yours as another journal my friends should visit. Is this okay? Great to know your still out there … you kinda (to my knowledge) dropped off the face of the earth after Star Trek.
    On Topic: I hope your show went great. I would enjoy seeing one as many others have mentioned.
    Well, gotta skidattle.

    So why don’t you do more of this “love machine” stuff outide of that SoCal craphole? As another Chicagoan posting replies here, that might be gold for a week or two stint here at alot of local theaters.
    Also as a Chicagoan, tonight was cold, wet, and crapalicous.

    I’d love to be there, but I don’t think they’ll let me leave here.
    Of course, I don’t have Cinemax either, which is why I’ve entertained myself for two days by perusing your entire Photo Blog. 🙂 So, thanks for that, and also thanks for the gmail4troops.com link! That’s a noble cause.

    I can attest to the fact that Love Machine IS a great show. I saw it before Christmas. The skits are funny and Wil’s has some great skits of his own. It’s a good evening. I might even go again if I can find some more people to go.
    Anyway, if you live in L.A., get out of the rain and go see it. If you’re hungry, you can go to the Amalfi first, which is 10 feet away from the theater and you don’t even have to get wet going to both. If you live outside California, it’s suppose to run through March, according to Wil. Maybe you can come on vacation???

    Woman: “I’m here to turn on the pleasure machine.” [Have sex with Butthead]
    Beavis: “Uh, the TV’s fine now. The remote just needed new batteries.” *slams door*
    I just thought of that for some reason.

    Your reference to the weather watch being mostly the same reminds me of the scene in LA Story where Steve Martin pretapes the weather because “what could possibly change” saying it will be sunny and 72 all weekend or something. Then it pours and his boss loses his boat and fires him.
    Ah, the weather in LA.

    Wil,
    Your state needs rain but no floods. Your recent weather must be a strange thing for you to go through but I have faith that you will be fine. I also know that your comedy show will be great too. Hang in there because your sun shine will be back in no time.

    Heh.. having moved to CA recently from the midwest I must say it’s funny to watch the news when the weather segment is on. I mean, run for the hills, stockpile supplies, it’s going to … rain! 🙂
    I’m sure I’ll have a different viewpoint 12 months from now, or at least that’s what my coworkers tell me.

    Here’s hoping we can get down to LA for the
    show, Wil! We have been getting steady rain
    in Simi since we landed in Burbank. Thank
    God we aren’t in La Conchita! Holy moley!

    So I had heard all about the Wil Wheaton blog since I started blogging recently. I’m like, whose this Wil Wheaton guy anyway? Now I get it…
    Anyway, having enjoyed you on television during my teenage years, I am glad to know that you are safe and sound and not hold up in some Las Vegas Motel shooting heroine with a billy goat and a single tooth hooker name Bev. Now comes the cheesy self promotion….
