So according to the leaked comedy lineup, we'll be getting a Donald Glover set.......pretty awesome. He's hilarious and i've been following his work in his sketch comedy group Derrick Comedy as well as his role on Community and his rapping (Childish Gambino). His standup is pretty good and I'm looking forward to his set. Hopefully we get a rap set from him too.
Donald Glover/ Childish Gambino is in my top three on my wish list. I don't care about any other comedians as long as he's there, although I must say that I would be disappointed if it was ONLY his comedy, Culdesac and I am Just a Rapper1 and 2 are some of my favorite rap albums.
It would also be amazing if some of the other Roo artists played with him and let him rap over their music like he does on I am Just a Rapper (that would really be the dream, but I doubt that would happen).

I think it may just be comedy set considering the comedy shows are usually shared by like 3 or 4 comedians...so he may only have like a half hour. I'd love to be wrong though. Maybe they'll add him as a short cafe act or something.

He's great on Community. I've been meaning to watch his Derrick Comedy stuff on netflix. Maybe I'll finally catch a comedy set this year and see him. Here's one of my favorite scenes with him and levar burton.
btw, am I the only one who incorrectly thought he was Danny Glover's son?

Not positive but if that Derrick Comedy on Netflix is just their movie Mystery Team then you need to watch it. It's very funny.

Never heard of this dude until Odd Future on the MTV Woodies, but after watching some of these clips Im gonna check out Community and some of his stand-up

I had no idea that he wrote for 30 Rock until he was on Conan a couple months ago. He started writing for them straight out of college, the guy is incredibly talented.
That Levar Burton episode of Community was hilarious. My favorite line from the show was on the Election episode when Troy describes Garrett as "he's like god spilled a person"

haha that's too funny. and yea the movie on netflix is Mystery Team. My roommate watched it and gave it a great review also, so I'm def gonna have to check it out.
Won't get to enjoy his childish gambino but at least he'll be there. Comedy is semi weak but i've been wanting to see him for ages, so he's the deal maker for me.
This scene made cry so hard I was laughing. It's not totally Troy-centric but that's when his character is at its funniest:
I'm so happy he's going to be there! I've been tweeting him about it every few weeks -- I think that I might've been heading towards a twitter restraining order...
