But this time round, it's as a suit!
According to Variety, Jim Carrey is the co-creator and exec. producer of an HBO comedy that pays homage to the late 70's-80's era Comedy Store in LA and its then owner Mitzi Shore (Pauly's mom).
Carey was part of the influential wave of comics in the late 1970s and early '80s who got big career boosts by performing at Shore's famed Comedy Store.
Comedienne Lisa Lampanelli - the really funny chick from all those roasts - is attached to star as the character based on Shore.
Lampanelli + Carrey X HBO = funny (we hope)!

I remember the Comedy Store owned by Pauly Shore's mom. And I remember Jim Carey getting his start there too. What a neat thing to do now.
first
swweeet
Second!
I LOVE JIM CARREY!!!!
He could eat crackers in My bed anytime! lol
Lisa Lampanelli is as funny as a cow in heat. Rather disgusting and suffers from not a lot of imagination. I wish it would not happen with her.
He's a HUNK!
I've loved every Movie He's done!
idk.. it sounds really funny but I hate Lisa Lampanelli
I FUCKING LOVE LISA LAMPANELLI
Comedienne Lisa Lampanelli is a DISGUSTING PIG!
Lisa is going to ruin this movie! Sorry JIM I won't bother!
Wow. He's so creepy looking. what stupid hair.
Re: Dandy – He's a character Actor You idiot! He always looks different for parts!
Well, it'll be filthy, if nothing else. That wacky Lisa likes to talk a lot about banging black guys!
why is it …Carrey X HBO? It should be L + C+ HBO = funny
smart move! no one wants to see him in movies anymore.
Lisa lampanelli is a fucking funny ass chick, LOVE HER!!
I don't think Lisa Lampanelli is very funny, (Actually I love her)….Wait a cotton-picking minute. She was an honorary howre. Hmmmm.
You are all evil…lol
Who cares. He is the worst thing Canada ever produced. And that's saying a lot when you factor in Shatner and Celine Dion.
i love Lisa Lampanelli and Jim Carrey!
that shit just may be funny..Lisa Lampanelli is the shit!!
that chick is soooo nooot funny!! every joke is based on her love of black men, which is fine, just not that edgy in this day and age!! at those roasts, she is the least funny one each time. How is this woman even semi-famous?
I love Jim Carrey's ACTING, but where in this story does it say he is going to ACT in this "comedy?" He is going to be a "suit" only. Also, is it a series, a movie, or what? I don't know Lisa Lampanelli. imdb says she is an insult comic. I see her pic and now I recognize her; I really don't like her at all! Personally I can't stand insult comics, and that's not Carrey's background. I don't see how this can be a good project for Carrey.
He's soooo creepy. And so obviously a tweaker. And he's not very funny, except when he's doing a serious role.
this show sounds lame, Lisa is a unorginal pig, she was alot funnier when she was known as Dice Clay. and Jim is so unimportant that ……well he just is.
I hope the show sucks as much as perez does at a mans soccer event! later bitches
I frigging love Lisa Lampanelli!
This could be maybe his worst photo.
Is lisa lampanelli gay? Im not but id still hit that.
He's too old for his hair. He has 20-something lady hair. For the love of god, lose the girly bangs and let it go a bit grey, man!
Just saying…
sale orribleeeeeeeeeeeeee ok qu
LOVE Lisa Lampanelli. If you have never seen her, go rent the Comedy Central William Shatner roast.
Had the honor of meeting her after a show once and she was very sweet, signed copies of her CD and cracked jokes.
Will definitely watch this HBO thing!
I love,love,love,love Lisa!! She is a true original!!
I love Lisa Lampanella, I will watch anything she is in!!!!
Re: rza – you are joking right..They save the best for lat for a reason..I am speaking of those roasts..
