I've never really been a fan of stand-ups coming out and just doing their act to start the show. It seems to happen a lot more in recent years whenever a stand-up hosts. I prefer the monologue to show something different from the host.
I always enjoy the "Real Bostonian" commercials. I looked up their previous ones, and was surprised to see the first one wasn't with Burr but was actually Casey Affleck for Dunkin. The second one was Burr with the Sam Adams Pumpkin Spice beer. The recurring character is actually Mikey Day in a Patriots hat and high-vis vest. He was Affleck's friend in the first one and Burr's son in the next two.
