The Warmup Guy

Autor Bob Perlow, Richard Cummins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2026
A hilarious behind-the-scenes book from "the best warmup guy in the business" who kept live studio audiences engaged and laughing on TV sets (Jay Leno).
A comedy show where no one is laughing is anything but funny, so from the late 1970s to the early 2000s, stand-up comedian Robert Perlow made it his mission to keep the energy flowing on television sets. Perlow perfected his routine as a warmup guy on the sets of some of television's most popular shows, including Friends, Will & Grace, Growing Pains, Cheers, Full House, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. From an improv class with Robin Williams to a heated encounter with Tim Allen, Perlow saw it all. He uses his trademark humor to reveal personal recollections from both behind and in front of the camera in this hilarious tell-all book.

"One of the best." --Garry Marshall
"A must read for anyone wanting an insider's look at comedy, TV, and celebrities." --Fred Willard
"An inherently fascinating and consistently compelling read from beginning to end, The Warmup Guy is impressively well written, organized and presented, giving the appreciative reader true insights in the creation of television programming." --Midwest Book Review
