The Aristocrats makes its TV debut

That's The Aristocrats as in the movie from Paul Provenza and Penn Jillette, not The Aristocats, the Disney movie. One of those films is incredibly decadent and depraved, while the other is merely about the world's dirtiest joke. The joke has actually been around since vaudeville times, and it is not, in and of itself, a particularly funny joke, but it's definitely a fun joke to tell because it allows for the teller to embellish and stretch the joke out as long as they want. It's been a dirty little secret among comedians for ages. They sit around trying to come up with the grossest, raunchiest version of the gag they can think of, and the movie skips from one comedian to the next as they each put their own unique twist on it. The movie will make its TV debut on HBO this Wednesday, July 26, at 11 p.m.
