With the Oscars set to air this Sunday, this week's clip is a special tribute to one of this year's dramatic Best Actor nominees who got his start on the Second City stage: Steve Carell. While it's only about two minutes long, this clip from Carell's late '80s level 5 conservatory graduation show is a silly improvised rhyming game Carell kicks off as a frustrated lumberjack…who eats dogs? Little did that audience know that almost 30 years later, that frustrated lumberjack would become an Oscarnominated actor.
