Doogie Howser comes of age!
The 9th annual SF Sketchfest Celebration of Comedy touts guest appearances this year by talented Neil Patrick Harris, Conan O'Brien (licking his wounds?) and famed talk-show King Dick Cavett (to name a few).
For die-hard fans of comedy, the fest - whick revs up this Friday (January 15th) and jolts funny bones until February 2nd - is a must attend.
One of the highlight events is "Celebrity Autobiography" (Jan.30th & 31st) which headlines former Dougie Howser star Harris.
At press time, the award-winning actor was still mulling over bios to offer up in his much-anticipated appearance at the rollicking fest.
Tomes by Sarah Palin and David Hasselhoff kicking around inside his head are major contenders for the wicked jab he is allegedly comtemplating.
"The less you try to make it a comedy hit, the funnier it is," he joked to one reporter in recent days.
Because the charismatic star is slated to mug for the cameras this week-end @ the Golden Globe Awards (he's been nominated for the coveted award this year) the out actor was forced to bow out of "Match Game" (a popular sketchfest program) which gets underway the same night in Frisco.
Other much-talked about events include Weird Al Yankovich in conversation with Chris Hardwick (web soup), a Fred Willard chat at the screening of "Waiting for Guffman", and Moon Zappa's stab at improvising stories penned by good old dad (legendary Frank Zappa).
See 'ya there!
