As we are flooded with images of the recent Gulf oil disaster, there are some who worry about the future of our planet and its wildlife, while others are concerned with who is to blame in this epic botch job.
Before anyone arrives to these concerns, however, they are reminded of one thing and one [...]
When a celebrity passes, we are often shown the same images in the news cycle over and over: Dennis Hopper on a motorcycle, Michael Jackson moonwalking, that famous Farrah Fawcett poster. Sure, they’re iconic and all, and necessary for those who have absolutely no idea who the departed is, but those of us who are [...]
After years and years of hearing what a lost treasure MTV’s The State was, I was finally granted access through it’s recent addition to Netflix’s Instant Stream feature. It more than lived up to its reputation, especially when compared to it’s lazy older brother, Saturday Night Live. Sketches on The State rarely outstay their welcome, [...]
Don’t read if you’re not caught up.

On Sunday, the Discovery Channel debuted Life, the breathtaking new 11-part nature documentary that serves as de facto sequel series to the equally stunning Planet Earth. Unlike Earth, which [...]
First off, I crossed out Jonah Hill’s face because he has nothing to do with this post, not because I do not like him.
This week on The Sarah Silverman Program, two of the most subversive, non sequitur, absurdest comedians in entertainment joined forces to make some of the weirdest scenes ever recorded. Andy Samberg [...]
While Conan’s exit agreement bars him from appearing on television until… when was it again?… Andy Richter apparently has no such clause. The former, then once again, then former again late night side kick recently stopped by Live With Regis and Kelly to let it all out to Kelly Ripa. It makes sense. Who else [...]
After riding the success of past viral hits “I’m F-ing Matt Damon” and its sequel, “I’m F-ing Ben Affleck”, Jimmy Kimmel unveiled his new video on Friday. In “The Handsome Men’s Club”, Jimmy presides over a panel of A-list actors known for their easiness on the eyes. To name the full roster would ruin the [...]
