HBO Comedy: Robert Klein: Unfair And Unbalanced - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

Starring in his ninth stand-up special, comedian/actor Robert Klein delivers an all-new, hour-long stand-up routine.

Taped in front of a live audience on April 10 at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts’ Amaturo Theatre in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Klein takes on: bipartisan gridlock in Washington; obstructionism for the sake of obstructionism; image instead of substance; Congressmen running off to Argentina rather than running the country; couch potatoes with two waistlines; out-sourcing tech jobs to India; and the average American’s fascination with pop culture but his/her total lack of interest in grappling with truly important issues.

Also, backed by a symphony orchestra onstage, Klein will belt out newly minted musical numbers about such topics as medical marijuana, Barack Obama and his continued inability to stop his leg from shaking – at least when he’s singing the blues.

Premieres Saturday, June 12 at 10 p.m on HBO Canada
