[ what's crackin'? ]

If you're a comedy nerd, you should already know the name Aziz Ansari. He's doing the hipster doofus thing as Tom Haverford on NBC's much-beloved, little seen Parks & Recreation, he did the sketch comedy thing on MTV's brilliant and undervalued Human Giant series, he recently took the reins of the MTV Movie Awards, and he's been doing standup this whole time, too. If you want more, you'll get it soon — he and alt-comedy director extraordinaire Jason Woliner inked a three-picture deal with Judd Apatow and Universal at the end of last year. Translation: Aziz Ansari will, knock on wood, soon be a damn movie star. Which is awesome because, as you'll see at the Tower on Thursday, the dude is funny as hell.
