“An orgy of comic genius!”
-Comedy Central on-line

“In a city of jokers these situational comedians are among the very finest.”
-San Francisco Chronicle

“Those Killing My Lobster kids are up to it again — that is, making you laugh uncontrollably.”
- SFGATE.com

“Intelligently whacked-out comedy.”
-San Francisco Magazine

“Hip, irreverent, and brilliantly funny.”
-WHERE Magazine

“San Franciso’s very own sketch comedy super troupers “
-San Francisco Examiner

“It’s a wonder that local sketch-comedy group Killing My Lobster doesn’t have it’s own television show by now.”
-SFGate.com / SF Chronicle Online

“Gays be warned: this may tickle your funnybone.”
-Creampuff Magazine

“Chicago may be the epicenter of sketch comedy, but Killing My Lobster has the potential to put San Francisco on the map.”
-SF Weekly

“Sketch comedy remains Killing My Lobster’s bread and butter, and their latest show certainly honors their reputation for crisp writing and slick performance.”
-The Chicago Reader

“Megahilarious…Killing My lobster consists of comics who look funny, act funny, talk funny, walk funny, and think funny.”
-Seattle Post-Intelligencer

“Killing My Lobster has San Francisco audiences rolling in the aisles and is poised to blow up nationwide. Known for their irreverent, literary, and smart slapstick routines, the Lobser crew performs sketches about, for example, a guy whose lifelong dream is ride the G-Spot – Kenny G’s tour bus—or two dot-commers who hawk their online potato-selling website E-potato.”
-Heeb Magazine

“The hottest and most consistent sketch group working in the Bay Area.”
-Contra Costa Times

“Laugh-out-loud hilarious through and through. Cleverly written and inventively performed. World domination – or at least a series on Comedy Central – won’t be long in coming.”
-San Francisco Bay Guardian

“They’re not going to quit telling jokes until you start laughing.”
