Late Night Stand-Up Rewind: Todd Barry, Louis C.K., Marc Maron And More (VIDEO)

Sometimes, it's nice to have a reminder that for every Daniel Tosh rape joke that gets made, there are thousands of alternatives that we can see on TV nearly every night. And this week was a good one for stand-up: Not only did we see the likes of Todd Barry and Ted Alexandro do stand-up on CBS, we got some great panel from Louis C.K., Marc Maron and Jen Kirkman.

Plus, Sebastian Maniscalco performed on "Conan" to promote his upcoming Showtime special, and newcomer Cristela Alonzo did great on "Conan," too.

Finally, the second season of "John Oliver's New York Stand-Up Show," Comedy Central's new show showcasing some of the funniest stand-up comedians in America, debuted this week as well. What a week!
