Comedian and actor Bryan Callen has a pretty simple goal in life – he wants to make a lot of money so that he can afford a helicopter and an entourage of acrobats, a pet monkey and a giant. Given his résumé, Callen just might get his way. Fifteen years ago he made his television debut on MadTV, where he was a series regular, before going on to guest spots on Sex and the City, West Wing, CSI and other popular programs. Along the way he made a few stops on the talk show circuit, including Late Night with David Letterman. See what Letterman found funny during Callen’s four-day stint at the Houston Improv. 8 p.m. Thursday, 8 and 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, 7:30 p.m. Sunday. 7620 Katy Freeway. For information, call 713-333-8800 or visit www.improvhouston.com. $15 to $17.
