There was definitely an different vibe in this second preliminary week, maybe because of the higher percentage of visiting comedians, the documentary film crew, and a wide variety of expections, who knows?

Anyway, a couple of people made a hard run at the semi-finals spots - like to single out Dartanion London, whose improv training was put to good use when the mic cut out during his set at the sold-out Fairhaven last night. Dart was able to not only recover, but had a great set which was justly rewarded by a huge response and high scores from the judges.

Also to Hamilton, Ontario's Manolis Zontanos, who hammered out a couple of hot sets at the WAC and Fairhaven.

But when all was said and done, neither effort was enough, as another Canadian, Paul Myerhaug, was also making his run, and beat out both.

But now - the scores go back to zero!
Making the semi-finals from this week:
Paul Myerhaug, Toronto
Myq Kaplan, Boston
Jeff Dye, Seattle
Natalie Gray, LA
Rory Scovel, Washington DC
