Harland Williams

By TOM CHILD

Published on May 28, 2008 at 2:43am

Comedian Harland Williams is one of the oddest people you'll ever see. Canadian by birth, but inexplicably smacking of the American South (could it be the sideburns, the laconic drawl, the first name?), Williams has been in numerous television shows and movies and is a frequent and reliably amusing late-night-talk-show guest. His comedy sits neatly between Andy Kaufman and Mitch Hedberg, relying more on non sequiturs and unusual connections of logic than the standard standup shtick. Go see this singularly bizarre individual and marvel at the way his mind works.
