John Mulaney: From Scratch

Streaming on Various venues

Rehab looks good on John Mulaney. The first batch of tickets to his latest tour—presumably named for the comedian’s wish to re-start following a struggle with cocaine and alcohol addiction, as well as a highly publicized divorce—sold like hotcakes, and the tour has now been extended through November 7, with stops in Boston, Las Vegas, Atlanta, Philadelphia, and New Orleans. If the handful of stand-up sessions Mulaney did in May at New York’s City Winery are any indication, audiences are in for a raw take on Mulaney’s recent struggles. Hopefully there’s also the humor that made us love him in the first place. —J.V.
