Every February, the winter blahs known as SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) reaches its peak (or hits bottom) for millions of people. But Las Vegans

will have something to smile about: The shortest month is shaping up as a standout for stand-up.

In addition to the long-running laughmakers already in town, a gang ofTV-famous comics hit town next month.

By now, you’ve heard that Jerry Seinfeld is doing two days at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace (Feb. 1-2, tickets from $75). That same weekend, Drew Carey brings his Improv All Stars to the Hollywood Theatre at the MGM Grand (Feb. 1-3, from $89).

“Deal or No Deal” host Howie Mandel moves into the Hollywood Theatre at the MGM grand from Feb. 14-28 ($79). Acquired taste David Spade is set to play the Planet Hollywood Showroom (Feb. 15-16; he’ll be back March 14-25, April 11-12, July 25-26, August 30-31, Oct. 10-11 and 24-25, and Nov. 28-29; $89). Professionally cranky Wanda Sykes hits the Showroom Mar. 28-29 (also $89).

And at The Mirage, “King of Queens” star Kevin James will open for Ray Romano of “Everybody Loves Raymond,” and the longtime friends will do a Q&A with the audience after the shows, Feb. 15 – 16 and Feb. 29 – March 1 in the Danny Gans Theatre( $110).
