It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia: "The Nightman Cometh"

Tracie — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:00:00 EST

On last night's season finale of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Charlie wrote a musical, The Nightman Cometh, based on two songs he wrote last season — "Nightman" and "Dayman" — that demonstrate the inner workings of his mind and his subconscious obsession with being anally raped. The musical was a continuation on that, with accidental themes of child molestation and slavery. His whole point for writing the musical was to get the coffee shop waitress he stalks to marry him, but obviously, she was even more creeped out by him than ever before. Clip above.

Broadway actor James Barbour, who once stared in the stage production of Beauty and the Beast, will serve 60 days in jail after confessing in court yesterday, in graphic detail, to having had sex with a 15-year-old aspiring actress in his dressing room, a girl whom he was supposed to be mentoring. The best part about his confession is the way the New York Post reported on it. "'I placed my hand - I mean her hand,' Barbour continued, flubbing his line, 'on my p- - -s and my hand on her v- - - -a.' 'On her what?' asked the court stenographer, leaning in to hear him. 'On her v- - - -a,' he repeated helpfully, projecting more clearly." That's some great reporting. But it wasn't his graphic confession that surprises us most about this case — it's the fact that a guy in musical theater had sex with a female. [NY Post]
