See Dennis in "Slideshow" - January 11th

I'm going to be performing in "Slideshow" again on January 11th. This is going to be a particularly interesting night because each performer is creating a slideshow based on a box of slides chosen randomly. Paul, the proprietor of the Fake Gallery, was given a ton of discarded slides, like boxes and boxes of them, and we all grabbed one and now we have to turn them into comedy gold. I suppose I should open my box at some point and see what I have to work with. Maybe I'll go do that now.

Anyway, it promises to be a fun night...and there's free hooch and Diet Coke! Hope to see you there!

Hollywood Life 4-Pack

Hey Friends. Pick up the new issue of Hollywood Life magazine with Halle Berry on the cover. I have four profiles inside: "Californication" and "X-Files" star David Duchovny, "Atonement" star James McAvoy, music producer J,R. Rotem (he'se the guy who was rumored to ahve impregnated Britney Spears) and from "Ugly Betty", the hilarious Michael Urie.

I didn't have to nerve to ask Duchovny about all the free-balling sweatpants stories I've been hearing about him for years but I did talk to Rotem about Ms. Spears. They were romantically linked for a while after Britney split from K-Fed. He worked on seven tracks with Britney for her latest CD "Blackout", but when I talked to him three weeks before the CD dropped, he didn't know which if any of his cuts would make the CD. I think it's because none of them did. He was real fun to talk to, though.

A Tale of Two Game Shows

Anyone who knows me knows that I've always been obsessed with game shows. As a kid, I used to buy all the home game versions of TV shows and make my friends play them.

So it was a dream come true to be a contestant on the new game show "That's the Question" on the Game Show Network. It almost made up for the time back in 2003 that my dreams of being on Pyramid were dashed--after umpteen auditions and a full day of waiting in the studio to tape--because it turned out that I had gone out on a couple of go-nowhere dates with the executive producer back in the 90's. For legal reasons, I was out and I couldn't play the Pyramid. And I rock at Pyramid. Talk about a heartbreaker.

So I was thrilled to get on "That's the Question." The show is hosted by Bob Goen and it combines elements of Wheel of Fortune, Jumble and Millionaire to make a game that's fun, fast-paced and challenging.

My episode airs on the Game Show Network on Friday, November 30 (9 PM EST / 8 CST). Check your local listings for the exact time because every market is different. I can't tell you if I win or not, but I can tell you that I'm wearing a green shirt from Banana Republic and that I had a lot of fun.

Speaking of game shows, The MisMatch Game returns to the LAGLC on Friday, November 30, December 1 and Sunday, December 2. Learn all about it HERE.
