Paul Reiser

( January 17, 2013 )

Paul Reiser returns to Zanies for more stand-up after a performance here in 2012. The "Mad About You" star's humor revolves around a subject he knows very well: marriage and family, as he took time away from show business to focus on his.

Why go: It's nice to hear that celebrities can be just as unaware as regular folk about raising children. Reiser tells of the time his hand slipped while trying to loosen his baby's diaper and hit the baby in the nose.

Reconsider: You're leery of a comedian who doesn't have a website and podcast.
