Growing up outside of St. Louis , Randy & Jason Sklar had a typical suburban upbringing — playing soccer and baseball after school, hanging out with friends. Then they found comedy.
Their comedy quickly attracted the attention of MTV's talent executives looking to develop a different kind of comedy show. What they came up with was ” Apartment 2F ” — a sitcom format based around Randy and Jason's characters living in New York City . The format allowed the team to work into plotlines, live comedy performances, comedic characters, and short films by other performers. The show aired on MTV from July 13, 1997 through November of 1997 garnering rave reviews.
After developing pilots with HBO Independent Productions, WB and NBC, Jason and Randy provided the voices of Biff and Chip Oblong on the critically acclaimed animated show, The Oblongs.
Randy and Jason have also guest starred in several TV shows, including an Emmy Award winning episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm. They starred as conjoined twins in a memorable episode of Grey's Anatomy and as warring agents on HBO's Entourage. Of the Entourage episode, Entertainment Weekly television critic Paul Katz wrote of their turn, "in the hands of comedic masters, The Sklar Brothers, they made it soar."
Their half hour Comedy Central Presents stand up special is still in regular rotation on the network.
In November of 2006, Randy and Jason wrapped their 4th and final season of their critically acclaimed comedy series, Cheap Seats on ESPN Classic. In 77 episodes, the Sklars built a strong following in both the sports and comedy worlds.
Randy & Jason currently reside in Los Angeles . They continue to perform stand-up all over the country.

Because of Helium (and my stand up comedian cousin) I am becoming a stand up addict. Please help me get my laugh fix.
November 2, 2010 at 14:57
Either day or time:)
November 2, 2010 at 14:58
The Sklars make it okay to laugh at twins. Also, Cheap Seats was my favorite show of six years ago. Also, Spelling Bees. Also, Mozart wants to be a doctor.
Thursday @ 8, please.
November 2, 2010 at 14:58
What, no Ron Parker? Still like to go though Friday at 10 p.m.

I’d like to see them on Friday @ 7:30 because I’m a fan of their podcast “Sklarboro Country,” the ESPN show “Cheap Seats,” and their guest spots on the Jim Rome Show.
November 2, 2010 at 15:36
The Sklar Brothers podcast is hillarious, and I’d love to see them live! Either show on Friday would be sweet!
November 2, 2010 at 15:39
I need my girlfriend to see these guys or I’ll never get her to watch sports! Late show Friday is best. Thanks.
November 2, 2010 at 16:08
Because I love to laugh. Saturday at 7:30 please!
November 2, 2010 at 16:36
Because last week I won Nick Kroll tickets, but had to give them to my sister. And now I’m jonesing for some stand-up. And either day, late shows are better for me.
November 2, 2010 at 16:45
I grew up in St.Louis also and have been listening to these two clowns for a long time but never seen them live! They’re spots on NPR, Jim Rome and such are hilarious and they’re podcast is amazingly funny. I also have never been to a comedy club here in Portland and would love take my girlfriend who is also a comedy virgin. If you can spare two tix for Friday night, either time would be fantastic!!!! Thanks in advance!! You guys rock!
November 2, 2010 at 20:13
Because my wife and I watched EVERY episode of Cheap Seats and miss the brothers! Their twitter feed is not enough! And make it Friday night at 10pm, just like when we’d watch Cheap Seats (on tivo).

November 4, 2010 at 16:29
Would love to go to the 7:30 show on Friday… :)
November 4, 2010 at 16:33
I’m not familiar with the Sklar Brothers and love checking out new comedians! I will take tickets to any show/date. Thanks!
November 4, 2010 at 16:34
I would greatly appreciate these tickets for one reason, and one reason only: My girlfriend Jasmine. It has been an incredibly difficult year for the both of us financially, add on top of that family emergencies. Whenever we think of funny she always mentions the Sklar brothers and proceeds to shower me with you tube clips of them. Amidst all the letdown this year, sometimes all you need is a good laugh to lift your spirits and renew hope, especially when you know that it’s comedians that she loves. I would be grateful to be able to surprise her with this. Thank you for your consideration! Prefer friday night at 7:30 but sat at the same time is ok too. ( 10 hour day on sunday though)
November 4, 2010 at 16:45
I would like to be the token white women with poofy hair in the audience who laughs real crazy-like the whole time :o)
To really make it work, you should probably send me to all four shows.
November 4, 2010 at 17:55
I want to take a date to the Friday show at 7:30 because we want to laugh TWICE Tor would it be four times) as hard!
November 4, 2010 at 18:14
We would like to go saturday – because we haven’t seen Helium yet. :)
November 4, 2010 at 18:20
I always have a great time at Helium and would love to see the Sklar Bros!! This Saturday at 7:30 would be perfect.
November 4, 2010 at 18:37
i think these guys are the shitznit, but i am not willing to try and write something as crafty as the die-hard fans above so i will just hope for random drawing.
November 4, 2010 at 19:19
I would like tickets to see the Sklar Brothers on Saturday at 10pm if you cannot then 7:30 would be cool too. They were great on Comedy Central Presents. Thanks, Chris
November 4, 2010 at 19:24
I want to win tickets to this.
November 4, 2010 at 20:00
I would like to attend on Friday or Saturday, either time is fine. I NEED to attend because the rain has gotten me down

I’ve been riding the roller coaster of buying a house this month, inspections, loan docs, paperwork, paperwork, paperwork …. I really need a good laugh but I’m to broke at the moment to afford it. It’d be happy to attend any night at any time. Help a girl out who’s helping out the portland housing market! ;)
November 5, 2010 at 08:33
