Dinner for Two

O

he Mandel family didn't know
what their son Howie was
going to do for a living, but,
frankly, successful actor/comedian was
not even on the list.
Howie was a special child. He was,
how to say this delicately, annoying. And
he still is.
"Some things never change," he said
in a telephone interview. "I did all the
things that people said, 'Well, he'll grow
out of it,' and now it's a career.
Everything I was punished for and
expelled for is now my career."
Every aspect of Mandel's multifaceted
personality is on full display in his new
short run series, Hidden Howie: Public
Life of a Private Nuisance, airing on
Bravo Thursday nights at 11 p.m. start-

program where he uses a camera hidden
in his glasses to do Candid Camera style
tricks on unsuspecting people. Fans of
the Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Live
with Regis and Kelly, where these shorts
regularly appear, are already familiar
with the lengths Mandel will go to for a
laugh.

Obviously Jewish

On the premiere episode of Hidden
Howie, for example, Mandel goes into a
crafts store looking for something he can
use to preserve his recently deceased
grandmother. Needless to say, he wants
to mummify her "before she rots."
The helpful clerk — not an actress,
but a real clerk — is so polite she doesn't
blink as she suggests the proper tape and
quantity for a 5-foot-1, 130-pound
woman.
While viewers will get more than a
few laughs from these segments, not
everyone is pleased. Some establish-
ments have taken out restraining orders
