EndedReality showComedy

Actor and filmmaker Jon Favreau and a revolving guest list of celebrities eat, drink and argue about everything but who picks up the check. Each episode features Favreau and four guests sharing an evening of food and banter. Screen legends sit next to television personalities, legendary directors swap stories with stand-up comedians. It's the kind of spontaneous, unapologetic look at the entertainment industry you'd expect only IFC to bring to the table.
