The Lonely Island (TLI) is a group of filmmakers founded in 2001 by Akiva Schaffer, Jorma Taccone, and Andy Samberg (aka The Dudes). The group was originally from San Francisco, California and now reside in New York. The Lonely Island has created numerous comedic films, shorts, parody songs, and music videos. They have written shorts for the popular television show Saturday Night Live, most notably "Lazy Sunday", "Dick in a Box", and "Jizz in My Pants". They have made three full-length television pilots, all of which were rejected. The group operates a web site under the same name that showcases their collaborations. The site also includes a blog from second-tier member Chester Tam, often referred to as Chez (pronounced CHAY). The blog, titled Chez Chat, gives humorous summaries of the site's updates.
The three core members currently work together as writers on Saturday Night Live. In August 2007 the group premiered their first feature film, Hot Rod.[1] TLI will be releasing an album called Incredibad in 2009 under the Universal Republic record label.[2] The Lonely Island Lyrics |
