Wow. Just...wow. Anyone hear the show today? Artie went BALLISTIC on Teddy. I thought he was gonna put him in the hospital. The dude went through about 5 guys to try to get to Teddy.
I love Artie, but he certainly crossed theline today. Artie ended up quiting the show and if he hadn't, I think they would have had to fire him. The guy has GOT to be on something again. I don't buy that he is clean right now. As it stands, he is off the show and the show is on vacation next week so we won't know for two weeks...
If he is gone, I hope he gets his act together because he is one of the funniest comedians in the worldin my opinion. I also hope that if he has to be replaced, that Greg Fitzsimmons is the one to get the job. He is pretty funny himself.
I wouldn't be surprised if Artie ends up dead soon...

I havent heard that show since they switched to satellite and left the E! channel. I used to be a huge fan of Howard. Yes Artie has had some close calls with death already and will be dead soon enough.

YouTube has the entire episode.
Just search for "Artie Lange quits."
it is in 3 parts.SICK and vmarcilfan75 like this. -
nothing is official on that show. he said he resigned, but he really didn't. and they(sirius) said they pulled the replay so howard could review the tape over the weekend and decide what to do. sounds like a load to me, but you never know.
Arties been trying to get himself out of the show for the last 2 years...he just cant bring himself to quitting. yelling the F word(slur for gays) yet AGAIN, getting violent again. repeatedly missing days. i like him, his moms family and my wifes family are life-long friends. but he takes himself too seriously, he needs to chill and just be...and give the stand up a rest. -
Just heard it....wow...Artie is messed up emotionally.

I think he is the second highest paid stand up comedian in theindustry. He routinely nets checks over 75 grand for a night. What he doesn't realize is that he only gets that due to the exposure he has from the Stern show. -
I dont know about that Sam, he was big before Stern.

He does work more than people give him credit for. Having a job that constantly puts you on planes every week is tough. I have done that, and do that still sometimes and it wears you down. On top of doing stand up at night and a morning drive talk show can wreak havoc on you. And I think its unfair to ask himto give up stand up seeing as how he probably QUADRUPLES his pay from the show doing it.
But even with all that in his corner, you can't do what he did today. The guy is out of control and I think he needs to be drug tested. Honestly he does. Besides all of that, there is a precedent with this show to fire people who become physical. -
Id give up my job for the "hassle" of being paid to travel and tell jokes...

I think most of us would, that is not the point. The point is, Artie is so screwed up that even when he has the world by the balls, he is miserable. He creates this own depressing universe for himself. -

I worded it wrong, I believe he brings in more money than those guys (with the exception of Dane Cook) due to how often he works. I read it somewhere, have to find the article. Good catch on your end. :up: -
Agreed on that one buddy -
Just proof he is one sad, sad soul -

Uhm, how are my numbers off when I clearly stated that millions still listen to Stern on a pay service (Sirius)? The 12-20 million number is from when he was on regular radio across the country.
I happen to think Artie is a terrific talent when it comes to standup, but you know as well as I do that the Stern Fans will absolutely turn on him when heleaves the show. You are spot on that his numbers will tail off significantly if/when he leaves the show. Probably not as much as Jackies because A: Jackie sucks, B: Howard will still support Artie publicly and C: Artie does have a career outside of the show (movies, standup etc.) and thus has connections to get his name out there.
But your right. The messed up part for Artie is that he wa splanning on retiring from the road in a couple of years by working hard now and banking tons of money. With this blow up and potential plugs going away, he has just doomed himself to a life on the road for the remainder of his life barring something amazing coming his way.Last edited: Apr 10, 2008 -
