so happy that Earthquake made the move to WME
That’s not even a solid joke.
that is not earthquake
I’ll miss his frequent appearances as a bum on 30 Rock if his own show makes it.
He opened for Stephen Merchant at the Largo earlier this year and killed it. So awesome. Congrats dude. You stole the show!
Not cool. ICM was killing it for this guy. Doesn’t it seem like a lot of the clients of that management company and that law firm move tend to get moved around from agency to agency? should be more loyalty in this town especially within comedy circles. Sad for ICM.
One of the reasons is the toxic culture at ICM. Becky HATES William Rodriguez.
I was there too. He was so funny.
I’ve seen this guy like 3 or 4 times at Meltdown and he’s fucking hilarious. Hands down my favorite comedian.
Hes an excellent comedian and writer. Should see some big things from him.
this guy is more than a solid bet. funny funny funny
Typical Becky move
Too bad for Hannibal. He lost a great agent at ICM !
funniest guy out there.
Love Hannibal, the guys is hilarious. But it seems like ICM was doing a great job for him. I remember when they signed him, and thinking they were smart to get on board before anyone else. You never know what goes on behind the scenes.
it seemed like he had a great agent that worked really hard for him. bummer.
