"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Sounding like Chewbacca, Jonathan Ames made a "hairy call" to greet the sidewalk throng of Bored to Death fans who were waiting for him outside the Brooklyn Inn Wednesday night. "I don't know what fun can be had — it's just a bar!"
The twinkly Bored to Death creator had invited folks to come celebrate the show and mourn its demise. Oh, and drinks were on him — and so they came, filling up the bar, the sidewalk, and the street. The already overwhelmed bouncer, desperate for backup, greeted Ames with, "You should work the door."
"A simple tweet and wow," said Dean Haspiel, his illustrator and inspiration for the Zach Galifianakis character of Ray the cartoonist. "They're around the block!" Ames noted, pulling open his jacket to reveal a Super Ray T-shirt. The show might be dead, but he had no regrets: "We had fun with it. Life was less bleak for 27 minutes a week."
