Or would that be “Steven Seagasm”? Whatever. In news that made me slip out of my chair and painfully crack my chin on my desk, ’90s action hero/demigod STEVEN SEAGAL is getting his own reality show! In which he’s a real cop! In real Louisiana! REALLY!Apparently Seagal has been working on and off as a […]

SNL: Sissies, Nancies, Loafers (Light In)
The election is over, which means we won’t be seeing Tina Fey playing Sarah Palin on SNL anymore — well, not until 2012, at least. Frankly it’s hard to see a need for SNL in the interim, but the show remains on the air regardless and apparently last weekend’s show — which I missed — […]

The Absolute Worst Moment in the History of Humankind
Let’s let our imaginations run free for a moment, shall we? Let’s imagine an awful, awful “what-if” scenario in which Barack Obama did NOT win the presidency on election night. Imagining it? No… you’re not doing a very good job. Just imagine the absolute worst moment in the history of humankind… and then multiply it […]

Paul Rudd + Beyonce + Justin Timberlake + SNL = LUV!
It may be going for the easy laugh, but I’ll happily accept it — especially when it involves this weekend’s Saturday Night Live sketch involving Paul Rudd, Beyonce, and Justin Timberlake dressed in a revealing leotard.Hilarity… ensue!

Keith Olbermann on Gay Marriage and Prop 8
It’s really sad that only the choir and not the people who really need it the most will watch this. Last night, Keith Olbermann of MSNBC’s Countdown fired off one of the most moving and convincing oratories I’ve heard about gay marriage and those who voted in favor of Prop 8. If you know anyone […]

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough Said a Very Dirty Word
You know… I usually don’t mind people cursing at me — in my job it happens roughly every 37 minutes. However! CAN’T YOU PLEASE WAIT UNTIL I GET TO WORK? Now I can’t even watch the almost always relaxing Morning Joe on MSNBC without host Joe Scarborough saying… saying… oh, my sweet lord, I can’t […]

DVD Review: Futurama: Bender’s Game.
So the third direct-to-DVD Futurama movie isn’t all that good. At Futurama‘s best, it’s a pretty hilarious animated sitcom that just so happens to take place in the future; at its worst, it falls back on little more than its sci-fi trappings and nerd references for laughs. Let’s face it: Anyone who gets the reference […]

OH FUCK JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS ARE TRULY OUTRAGEOUS
Last night’s election coverage made use of holograms, and fancy new technology, and computers and blah blah blah. But as everyone knows, the only holograms worth paying any attention to are Jem and the Holograms. Come on, you remember! The ’80s kids cartoon show? Jem is a singing superstar, and the alter ego of… oh, […]
