Larry Miller Explains "The Five Levels Of Drinking"

Birthday boy Larry Miller has long been one of my favourite comics, chiefly for the insightful brand of comedy he performs; the most famous of his bits is this classic - The Five Stages of Drinking, which he occasionally still hauls out as a party piece and perennial crowd-pleaser...

While he lost out on the plum role of George Costanza to Jason Alexander, Miller did get to voice the Pointy-Haired Boss on Dilbert in addition to many other movie and television roles stretching all the way back to the 1990 film Pretty Woman.

Carson-Era Comedy: Larry Miller

Ah... Those were the days. It used to be an illicit treat to stay up and watch The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, which I did faithfully throughout the last three years of high school.

Carson's commitment to providing exposure to the best stand-up talent in the country has made stars of men like Larry Miller, who's forged himself quite a tidy little career in the movies, often playing cranky or embittered men who wield their smidgen of power like a weapon of mass destruction.
