Jon Glaser has joined the cast of Parks and Recreation! He'll play a councilman and local orthodontist who, as Mike Schur tells TVLine: " “basically becomes Leslie’s nemesis. He doesn’t find her interesting or charming at all, and doesn’t care about her bright-eyed, bushy-tailed attitude toward making the town better… He just doesn’t like her.” Doesn't like her!?? Impossible. Well… It's great because it's about time that Leslie met someone who just doesn't buy into her whole thing (so she can vanquish him). It's also great because Jon Glaser is the best.
Kevin Hart is currently killing it. He's one of the biggest stand-ups working, he's getting tons of movie roles, and last night he was asked to sub for Chelsea Handler as the host of Chelsea Lately. Yet, despite all of this grown-up success, he still maintains a child-like fear of dolphins. As you can see below, as soon as Joy Bryant brought up the ocean, he couldn't wait to bring up his grudge against dolphins. It's pretty impassioned. It's ruined his appreciation of almost 50% of lower back tattoos. Dolphins, however, have remained eerily silent thus far about what they think of Hart.
Two weeks ago, Stephen Colbert embarked on a mission to run the Swedish national twitter account, @Sweden. And after much debate, Sweden made their final decision:
"Although we appreciate that having Colbert as a Curator of Sweden would be meaningful in terms of global attention to this initiative, VisitSweden and the Swedish Institute have decided to – after thorough consideration – decline his generous offer."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. What the shit? Sorry, he can't live up these recent gems:
It's just a classic nice fellow meets mean service employee then gets sad, so he has his famously mean dog puppet friend come and yell insults at said mean service employee, which devolves into complete nonsense yet understanding and eventually love and "titty" smacking story. Classic.
Stephen was cool with the Knights Templar drug cartel until they messed with his snacks. He warns the drug pushers not to mess with Don Pringles because "once he pops he cannot stop." Which makes sense, considering that moustache. He looks like Bill the Butcher from Gangs of New York but instead of murdering people and butchering meat, he murders people and butchers potatoes.
This is probably the first time he's told a joke he's believed in in 15 years. They come after 20+ members of The Tonight Show staff were relieved of their jobs last Friday. Most likely this will be the end of it – Jay is a definitive good soldier – however what if it isn't? What if he starts making more and more jokes at the network and Comcast's expense and then leads a revolution against all telecommunication corporations and then becomes the unlikely voice of the Occupy Television movement and then gives all his cars to gutter punks and then becomes a gutter punk and then gets [...]
I'm pretty sure Jon Hamm decided that during his Mad Men break he's going to just give himself to the comedy community and let them use him for anything they need. There is this, he dressed like an apple for Kristen Schaal to say bye to New York, he's appearing on like all the Fox animated shows, he sang with Reggie Watts about Taxi, he's going to appear on Children's Hospital with a moustache, and who knows what else. He's like comedy's boyfriend. (Well done, comedy. But be careful, he doesn't believe in marriage.) And as comedy's boyf, he did a great job putting Jon [...]
Simpsons showrunner Al Jean is leading a protest against Community being eligible for animation Emmy awards. Where animated shows like The Simpsons or Family Guy are only able to submit for comedy series categories or animation series categories, Community has been allowed for the second year in a row to submit for both. Al Jean's letter is co-signed by over 50 heavy hitters like: Seth MacFarlane, Matt Groening, James L. Brooks, and David X. Cohen. As is common around this time of year, a line is being drawn in the sand. Are you #TeamCommunity or #TeamSimpsonsFuturamaFamilyGuy? Read Jean's letter in its entirety and the Academy of Television Arts and [...]
Say what you will be about Madagascar 3: Scar's Mad & Gassy Return but it has been wonderful for late night television. Martin Short was on Kimmel to talk about the film but then things took a turn. As you can see above, Martin Short almost Martin Shortened Kimmel's life.
Here is Alison Brie performing in her band The Girls, which undoubtedly is a comment on the much talked about television program Girls. Here is how I know:
1. Her band is named Girls, like the show's name, despite the fact that there already is a successful band named that. 2. She is singing a song called, that's right, "Rich Girls", which features the lyric: "You're a rich girl, and you've gone too far/Cause you know it don't matter anyway/You can rely on the old man's money/You can rely on the old man's money". She might as well just summarize the plot of the pilot, amirite? 3. She [...]
Ok, he doesn't actually say, "Fuck you, Sting," but he probably wanted to. It was just that he was spouting off almost the identical sentiment that Aziz Ansari did last month. They both even brought up Sting. Sting! I wonder if Sting is aware that he's comedians' enemy number one. Like he wrote these perfect songs 30 years ago and thought, "Suck on this, clowns. People are still [...]
Yesterday, we mentioned that Modern Family's first table read of the season might be canceled because of looming negotiations. Well, that table read was supposed to be today and that shit got canceled. Beyond not showing up for work, the ModFam5 is suing 20th Century Fox (the studio who own Modern Family) for violating the "7 Year Rule", which prohibits contracts longer than seven years. It's a standard move for actors in negotiations like this. The studio's most recent offer of $150,000 per episode plus a $50,000 per episode bonus for season 4, $200,000 per episode for season 5, $225,000 for season 6, and up to $325,000 for [...]
If American Idol decided to become a regional competition instead of a national one, this is EXACTLY what the Chicago version would be like: just grown men in athletic hats, drinking beers, and singing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" between innings. Yeah, Chicago Idol sounds like a definite improvement. Call up Brian Dunkleman and ask him if he is willing to move to the midwest.
Remember when Greta Van Susteren had a silly name, called Louis C.K. a "pig" who "denigrates women," and said he shouldn't be allowed to host the Radio & TV Correspondents' Dinner, which may or may not have caused him to drop the gig? Well, as the video above shows, not only does Luther have President Barry's back, he has Louis's as well. I'd watch out, Greta; Luther wears A LOT of rings. You'll re-Greta it. (Sorry.)
