Who doesn’t like running into your favorite celeb? No one! Meeting those folks you look up to can be a magical experience most of the time. However, in the case of the new Above Average series Village Idiot, the experience is less than ideal for one socially-inept comic (but he doesn’t know that). Dave, played by series co-creater/co-writer Dave Hill (Dave Hill Doesn’t Live Here Anymore), lives in Greenwich Village where he just happens to have multiple uncomfortable run-ins with famous “friends.” In the premiere episode, Dave runs into actual Flash actor Tom Cavanagh. We get to hear exactly what Tom and Dave are thinking throughout their whole extremely awkward encounter. We also get the feeling Tom would rather be anywhere than talking to Dave. Fun! New episodes of the series will be released every Thursday. Look forward to guest stars Jordan Carlos (The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore) and Malcolm Gladwell (author of The Tipping Point) in the upcoming episodes. Now enjoy Reverse Flash!
This 3-episode webseries was co-created & co-written by Dave Hill and Tim Fornara (executive producer of TruTV’s series Comedy Knockout).
