Portlandiapalooza at The Rio Theatre
The Rio Theatre is presenting a very special full day binge-watch session of the hit IFC series Portlandia, airing seasons 1 through 3 on the big screen for Portlandiapalooza on April 13th.
There will be birds on things. Pickled popcorn. Artisanal grilled cheese sandwiches. A selection of some of Portland’s very best craft beer courtesy of the fine folks at Copper & Theory. Official Portlandia swag (vinyl! t-shirts! DVDs!) signed by stars Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein.
To top is off, series co-creator and star Fred Armisen (Saturday Night Live, Late Night with Seth Meyers) will be joining in for a live Skype Q&A.
This event is open to all ages. Those under 19 will be strictly limited to the balcony. Tickets are $13 in advance online or $15 at the door. Doors at 1:00pm.

Favorite skit – Brunch Village!!
although i love all the carrie, fred and the mayor sketches, my fav sketch is a toss-up between “artisinal knot store” and “eddie vedder tattoo”
Cacao

cacao!
The cacao sketch!
Women and Women First bookstore.
My favourite sketch is “It’s Over!”. My favourite duo is the couple from the “Is it local?” chicken sketch.
Bing watching Vancouver shot Battlestar Galactica. Been there!
My favorite sketch is the chicken farm sketch in the first episode I think. Where they’re at a restaurant and need to see where the chicken they’d be eating is raised before eating it.
My favourite would be the ‘A O River’ sketch. As well as Dumpster Divers, especially when Carrie says,”awww..”
