Friday: While we rarely recommend spending a night indoors, tonight we wouldn’t fault you for tuning to the premiere of Maria Bamford’s brand new Comedy Central Presents half-hour special. (10:30pm, free, unless you count having to pay for cable and the cost of electricity during the half-hour stretch, and even then, the cost is quite minimal) If you’re too hopped up on goofballs to sit inside, or have the awesome magical power of TiVo at your disposal, watch “Knife Fight” and “Engagement Party” showcase their ability to harness and control the righteous beast that is Longform Improv over at The Westside Eclectic. (10:30pm, $10)

Saturday: See Andy Kindler give the Rule of Three a warmhearted bitch slap at the Improv in back-to-back shows. (8pm and 10pm, $18) Recommending The Dirtiest Sketch in LA Contest, hosted by Amanda Egge and disgruntled Sprint worker Michael Busch, is kind of like recommending a cock fight, which is to say, while we personally think it’s wonderful, we also realize that everyone isn’t as sick in the head as we are. (midnight, $5)

Sunday: For the high-fallutin’ types, or the folks who get out of bed before noon on a Sunday morning — in other words, everyone who didn’t view awful, dirty sketches the night before — head over to the Steve Allen Theatre for a lecture about the use of blasphemy in “South Park” by David Koepsell. (11am, $6) Tarik Davis, Colton Dunn and a white guy join special black guests for a Black History Month extravaganza at the UCB. (9:30pm, $5) And finally, if you’re like us, and you’ve had just about enough of the smarmy intelligent, planned-out brand of “humor” that Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert practice, then tune into Fox News for “The 1/2 Hour News Hour”. The only question we have is if we can use the Sports Guy’s Unintentional Humor Scale for this, since it’s actually trying to be funny. (10pm, your soul)
