Abbi and Luke welcomed viewers to the fifty-sixth show and pondered what their marriage would mean for their working relationship. Things could be different. Or exactly the same.

Josh Homer returned as host and this time as a new dad! He talked about how much he hates the Tyra Banks show. It's a Mr. Mom thing.

Ryan Hamilton was back from the road to tell tales of how being from Idaho confuses people. Mainly people not from Idaho.

Man of Many Hats that he is, Harry Terjanian visited, this time as Christopher Walken who analyzed the myriad impersonations of himself in an oh-so-important PSA.

Joselyn Hughes had everyone's attention as she spoke about holiday party bloopers and run-ins with shady characters proving that every time a bell rings an angel gets its wings...and a girl gets hit on.

The Living Room was proud to welcome Sean Patton for his debut! He captivated us with the message of the era: Broke pimpin’ ain’t easy.

Snarky blogger Danny Kaye-Ward wouldn't let you hear the news without putting down all the celebrities that weren't in it first.

Grinning with no idea of what she was getting herself into, Abbi Crutchfield gave her last performance as a single woman and talked about--what else?--being engaged.

Right on Abbi's heels to correct her of all her misconceptions about matrimony was Jay Jordan Gilbert, the married counselor who has never been married.

The Funniest Comedian of All Time this episode was noneother than Ryan Hamilton! Ryan will never have a dull moment thanks to his bunny blow darts and fart putty.

Show 43: Olympic Champions

Photography by Aemiessence Fine Arts

Victor Varnado

Just in time for the closing ceremonies of the 2008 Summer Olympics, The Living Room celebrated an extraordinary league of comedy heroes. No fake fireworks were used in the production of this show.

Host of Honor Vince Averill introduced the following lineup:

Luke Thayer
Victor Varnado
Jacqueline Novak
Nore Davis
Ryan Hamilton

with special guest appearances by M.I.A. and feminist motivational speaker Dr. Erick Newberry.

Luke Thayer and Abbi Crutchfield welcome the crowd
Abbi and Luke welcomed viewers to the forty-third show by discussing which Olympic sport they would have chosen to master. Eating mashed potatoes is a lame choice, in life and in fantasy.

Vince Averill
So nice, he visits twice, Vince Averill returned for a second time to the show! He smoothly executed all of his material and captivated the audience like a young Mary Lou Retton.

Luke Thayer
Luke Thayer returned to the stage to rehash defeats past from his childhood. He won the sympathy vote from the crowd.

Abbi Crutchfield as M.I.A.
No sport events are complete without musical talent, and we were lucky to have a visit from M.I.A. Even though she didn't sing Paper Planes, she revealed how she comes up with her unusual songs. And now we know why they're not mainstream.

Victor Varnado
Victor Varnado enjoyed his first time on the show, celebrating his prank-worthy good looks, the hope for a black U.S. president and condemning dishonest drug companies. His observation skills get a ten-point-oh!

Jacqueline Novak
Jacqueline Novak, (the Phelps of the show, for winning a record number of FCAT awards) explained the obsession behind such dance films as Step Up 2: The Streets.

Abbi Crutchfield as Dr. Erick Newberry, feminist motivational speaker
Dr. Erick Newberry returned from a national tour to read the news and give China a piece of her mind for the gymnasts lying about their age. Women need to embrace themselves no matter their stage of life! Somehow she tied the lesson to Toucan Sam. Huh? We're just glad she's back.

Nore Davis
Representing Yonkers, Nore Davis came all the way down to share the woes of an overly protective family--or just to hide out from his mom for a while. Coaches are tough.

Ryan Hamilton
Ryan Hamilton closed the show and holds the record for going the longest riffing on things around the room. From identifying the berries in his smoothie to taking Matt Sears' order from the counter,

Ryan Hamilton feels like a waitress for Matt Sears

Hamilton had the crowd in stitches providing a new look at the backdrop for the hour's previous performances.

Victor Varnado, Abbi Crutchfield and Luke Thayer
The Hat of Chance deemed Victor Varnado the Funniest Comedian of All Time! He can't decide which niece or nephew he hates enough to give a used edition of the Cat and Mouse. Hey, it's a board game. Olympic games...Yes, we've had enough of the references too.

No! One more:
