I am actor/comedian Ken Marino, ask me anything!

Hi Ken, Michael Ian Black here. What do you like best about me, and why?

Seems legit.

Roy jones the boxer here.

Remember when I was pertanent? Remember when boxing was?

Hi MIB. There are many things I like about you. I think what I like most is that behind that hard sarcastic exterior you are one of the kindest sweetest people I've ever met. Also great teeth.

Are we having fun yet?

Adam Scott smell like farts!

Also, Watch BAD MILO!

Any word on a Party Down movie?

They are trying....

Any luck getting that Soup 'R Crackers franchise going?

No luck at all.

I LOVE THE TEN. Seriously, The Ten, in my opinion, is the most underrated comedy I've ever seen. Where did the idea for that movie come from??? When/how did you and David Wain meet/start writing together. Also, Burning Love is perfect. Sorry this is a blob of thoughts, I'm just excited. HI.

I'm excited too! Excited that some besides me likes THE TEN! We started back in college. We were roomies.

Also, Watch BAD MILO!

Do you wish that there was more Reaper? I wish there was more Reaper

I do but the demon costume started to be a pain in the ass. But I loved the show and the part.

What was your favorite skit from "The State"?

240 dollars worth of puddin'

Closing up the plug bag ...

What?!?!?!?!?!

Well that was fun! Thanks all. Drive safe.

love, Ken

Do people offer you things to dip your balls in all the time? Do you hate it?

Not all the time. Mostly when I'm with my kids. Bad timing I guess. No don't hate it. But I do hate having to explain to my kids what just happened.

Sorry for not having longer answers. I am a slow typer and I wanted to get to everybody's questions.

[deleted]

No idea. What do you think? I'd like to think so.

Ken- I adore you! I just wanted to let you know that The State is still one of my favorite shows ever. I'd love it if you guys would do some sort of 'reunion' type show? Would that kind of thing ever happen?

You must be very old.

Me too.

How did you decide to transfer the name Glenn Richie from "The Ten" to "Children's Hospital"?

ps YOU ROCK

RC and DW's Idea.

Did you wear a wig in Wet Hot American Summer?

Also who in your opinion put forth the best performance in that movie?

Yes I bought it on Hollywood Blvd. Best performance: Meloni

If not, which if any of them have you kept in touch with?

Yes. We are all still tight.

How many times did your balls pop out of those short shorts during the filming of Wet Hot American Summer?

And is there any progress on the long-rumored sequel to that masterpiece?

About 90 minutes

When you put those operating scissors in your patient was it really a goof? Or are you a cold blooded murderer?

It was a Goddamned goof.

What is Enrico Colantoni like??

Like 5'9".

Serious answer: The nicest guy! Love him.

Like 5'9".

Is there any hope for more Party Down? How big was your involvement with the Veronica Mars movie?

Never say never. RE: VM: I was in it. Which is big for me.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Is it ever problematic working on projects with your wife?

Only when she beats me. Which is often.

Hi Ken! Big fan

1. what is your favourite part about Burning Love?
2. is there any sort of news on the Party Down movie?

1. working with my wife and my friends
2. nope

Party Down movie - please tell me it's going to happen!

As an actor and a funny guy, have you ever had conflict with writers/directors where you were tasked with saying a line or doing a performance that you just think (or know) may not be funny, and if so, how do you handle that situation?

Love your work, looking forward to Bad Milo!

I can't tell you that. But it might.

Sure. You try it there way and you try it your way and if you are working with people you trust the cream will rise.

How did Ben Stiller get involved with Burning Love?

Mike Rosenstein a producer at Ben company liked the script and showed it to ben.Ben responded to it.

Hey Ken. Just a quick question. I read through your answers and I'm still a little unclear about this one.

Should I watch Bad Milo?

Sorry for being unclear. Yes you should.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Do you have any cool behind the scenes stories that happened on set of Wet Hot American Summer? The cast for that movie is so unreal so I feel like it had to be an absolute blast to film

It rained 29 of the 34 days we shot. somehting like that

On a scale of 1 to Bidet. How much has owning a Bidet changed your life?

Bidet.

Is Lizzy Caplan as awesome as she seems to be?

Awesome-er.

How many times a day to people yell "I wanna dip my balls in it" at you? And, you were my favorite in Party Down. Its still one of my favorite tv shows of all time. I really hope the movie happens.

One more question. Did you really punch Nick Kroll?

4 times a day. Yes I really punched Nick But you have to hear my side of the story....

Hey Ken. I absolutely love everything you've been involved with. So thanks. If you could dip your balls in anything right now what would it be?

Mustard maybe.

Who was your favorite guest star that was on Children's Hospital?

Too many to pick! Mrs C from HAPPY DAYS maybe.

Hey Ken! Any plans on coming to Toronto in the future?

Sure. Why? What you got?

First off, you kick ass in Eastbound and Down and your Party Down character is my favorite of the crew.

What was it like working with Danny McBride on Eastbound and Gillian Jacobs for Bad Milo?

Danny is the coolest mother fucker Gillian... you can't get any better!

Do people still come up to you and ask, "Who's got somethin' for me?"

Yes.

Also, Watch BAD MILO!

Hey Ken, any chances a Party Down movie happens? Big fan, would love if Netflix picked it up for another season.

Yes there is a chance. How big of a chance....no clue. Why don't you talk to the people over at Netflix.

Long time fan of yours since The State. Bad Milo looks amazing. You have never failed to entertain me in anything I've seen you in. I don't really have a question though.

Then I have a question. Buy me dinner?

I recently watched all of Dawson's Creek for the first time. It really made my day when you popped up as the "hot professor."

What day was made? Tuesday?

How did you all (The State) not die laughing shooting "The Pope is a Coming" sketch? Definitely my favorite.

Three members actually died of laughter while shooting that one. Sorry to be a buzz kill.

Is there a story behind the name 'Just Falcon', the actor who plays Dr. Glenn Richie on Childrens Hospital?

His name was Falcon at one point and then I suggested adding Just. So it would be a bit of an Abbott and Costello bit when his name was discussed.

I just had a particular thought. What if we go all the way to the zoo and the monkeys ain't in the mood?

To make-a love?

Big fan! Wishing Flute Cop had more lines, and wondered what he does with the flute?

He plays it well.

What is your biggest Ron Donald Don't? You are awesome "You've been Seeded!"

Don't fail scissors.

Is Dan Marino really your dad or have I been lied to all my life?

Lied to.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Thank you for Ron Donald.

The scene first episode where you tell a teenage girl you will just...destroy her after she thinks she saw you masturbating is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Thanks man!

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

You have no idea how excited I was the first time you showed up on Veronica Mars singing Private Eyes. I can't wait for the movie and hope the Party Down script is coming along nicely. What was your favorite State skit that you wrote? Is there more Burning Love coming anytime soon?

It excites me that you got excited. Favorite Skit I wrote: Louie and the Last supper

Was Natasha Leggero really bottomless the whole time for burning love also Should I watch bad milo

Yes and YES!

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Hey Ken! Huge fan of your work! What made you decide to sign on to Bad Milo?

When Mark Duplass asks you to be in a movie he is producing about a demon coming out of your butt. I ask,"when's the fitting!"

How did you find out you were going to be in Eastbound & Down? Loving this season so far.

I got a phone call.

Will you be my friend

For sure. I always get my friends ATM password and bank info. What's yours friend?

[deleted]

Happy Birthday Kyle! Happy Birthday to you!

How's your day been?

Ehh

Hey Ken! Have there been any talks to start a new sketch show with the old gang? I really miss seeing all of you guys together.

Like maybe we call it The Old Country?

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

When is burning love returning? Who is the main character, if there is a new season?

No new season. But season 2 and 3 on E! this fall!

When you get stressed in BAD MILO a demon comes out of your ass.

What happens to Ken Marino in real life when your stress is at a breaking point?

I pee out a gnome.

Do you ever have a desire to take on a serious role or is it just not your thing? What kind of non-comedic role can you see yourself in? Or, I guess, something different from what you usually do.

Also: thank you for the love you give your fans, and thank you and your wife for Burning Love. You're beautiful people.

Firstly thank YOU! Secondly I want to do a western. That seems like fun.

What was it like trading faces with Rob Huebel?

It hurt.

Ken,

I have enjoyed everything you've done. I'm amazed you didn't reference Party Down in your credentials; it's one of the most underrated comedies to come out in recent years.

Are you eager to play more serious parts? I think you'd be great. I'm sorry that this looks like it was written by a twelve year old. I'm tired.

Thanks! I didn't say Party down because it's not out right now. I was just shamelessly pushing what's out right now.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD! Burning Love season 2&3 coming to E! this fall!

Did you improvise that dick joke on Eastbound? that shit had me rolling on the floor!

Not sure what dick joke you mean. That show riddled with dick jokes. Do people really roll on a floor when they laugh a lot???

What's going on with Party Down?

Same shit different day man.

How do you think of new material. Does it just come to you? Or do you have a Process?

I hire young writers and I keep them in a box. http://psychology.about.com/od/sindex/g/def_skinnerbox.htm

Bad Milo looks amazing.

When will there be a Louie movie?

Thanks! Louie movie coming out 20never.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Loved your episode of the Nerdist podcast.

Was it as hard as I imagine it to be to keep a straight face during every interaction with Ken Jeong's character on Burning Love?

My face was filled with botox so no.

Keep writing and acting because you're hilarious. I love watching you on Burning Love and Children's Hospital. You're definitely my favorite comedic actor by far.

Lend me a million doallrs if you really mean it.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

You have aged very gracefully, and look even hotter than u did in the 90's.

I have an oily T zone. It helps. Also lots of work done to my face.

All the creature pooping scenes in Bad Milo looked exhausting. What did you have to go through for those performances? Thanks for all the laughs.

I have been training for this part all my life.

True Story: My wife recently had a dream that she was an extra in the Veronica Mars movie and she was supposed to kiss you in a scene. She was very agitated when she awoke. My question for you is this: What is the capital of Iceland?

Reykjavík And that's what I said to your wife right before I stuck my tongue in her mouth.

Who in your opinion is the most successful "The State-r"?

Obama

Hey Ken, huge fan! Children's Hospital is the funniest show on TV hands down.

Is there still a chance of a second Wet Hot?

Thanks and I'm not sure! Never say never I guess.

Also, Watch BAD MILO! And Eastbound and Down! And Axe Cop! And Childrens Hospital! And Toy Story Of Terror! And IN A WORLD!

Hey Ken I'm a big fan. I even once asked you something about burning love on twitter and you responded which was cool, I don't have a question I just want you to know I think you're a funny actor (party down / childrens hospital / east bound and down) some of my favorites. Keep doing what you're doing. Also, in a non weird way, want to hang out when you're around DC sometime?

also, i'm not literally a fan, I'm a human just FYI

I do not want to hang out but only because I don't hang with humans.
