Former SNL and High School High star Jon Lovitz will be opening up his own comedy club at the Universal Citywalk on the West Coast. In a display of ego and lack of imagination, it will be called the Jon Lovitz Comedy Club.Admittedly, I've never seen Lovitz perform stand-up comedy. I sort of figured he had faded into celebrity obscurity like so many before him and would only be seen time-to-time until his inevitable appearances on shows like Dancing With The Stars and Celebrity Boxing. If he got on Celebrity Apprentice, I think Trump would throw him out in the first round based on Lovitz's looks alone (which is both a statement about Lovitz and Trump).
I do wish the guy the best of luck with this business venture. I have been to Citywalk and think a comedy club would be useful and unique there. Hopefully it will last beyond the first year.

Jon Lovitz is a great stand-up, and has a LOT of top comedians who are friends of his. His club will almost certainly do well.
Plus, the location will be really convenient for writers at the new Tonight Show with Conan (many of who are great comics in their own right) to perform there, since the new Tonight Show studios are on the Universal lot.
