#mr zed

I got into Mr.Zed due to YouTube vids of him online and let me tell you, he’s one of my favorite characters in fiction!

It’s been a downer of a week, and on top of it all I missed a milestone as sometime in the last week or so I made my 10,000th post!

So here’s an episode of the Mr. Zed Show to cheer you up. Mr. Zed (a.k.a. David Zed) is the world’s first “robotic” stand-up comedian. He is from the US but is based in Italy, though he turns up on occasional comedy specials in the US (he made a guest appearance on a network show only a few months ago). He also hosted a popular comedy show for kids, and Mr Zed’s official YouTube channel has made some of these episodes available; they appear to only be about 6-8 minutes long.

Reading up on David Zed, I found out he’s been around for a long time; back in 1980 he actually had a hit record in Italy titled (what else) “R.O.B.O.T.”
