Video: SNL Girlfriend Voice skit
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Prime Time, NBC, Saturday Night Live,
I was just able to catch this past week’s episode of SNL (Season 34, episode 20), and for some reason, this skit had me rolling. If you saw it, it’s the one where three guys are trying to plan a bachelor party, but keep getting interrupted by phone calls. It starts with their girlfriends calling, and each of them talking on the phone using their “girlfriend voice”—that’s right guys, you are not alone on that one. If you haven’t seen it, check it out above. Good times.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, ABC, Gossip,
What I Like About You star Amanda Bynes will soon make her return to TV via ABC. Bynes will play a young, Midwestern girl in the new comedy Canned.
The pilot features a group of friends working in the same corporation, all of whom get fired on the very same day. It’s a plot that could be very familiar to home viewers, and Bynes has no shortage of comedic chops to bring to the series.
Bynes will play workaholic Sarabeth on the show. David Rosenthal will serve as executive producer.

Reports have surfaced that suggest Roseanne (these days, her last name is back to being Barr) will soon be returning to prime time network TV, a dozen years after her hit comedy series came to an end.

Okay, we just came across this Louis C.K. clip, and had to share.

Give it a look, and let us know what you think - is he talking about you? Hey, we’re just as guilty ourselves…

Kevin James: His Time to Shine?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Columbia Pictures, Comedy, Celeb News, New Releases,
The success of Paul Blart: Mall Cop over the weekend proves two things quite solidly: one, Kevin James, all by himself, can bring people out to the theaters and; two, I just can’t predict what moviegoers will watch. I have to admit, when I saw the promos for this one I was pretty much rolling my eyes - but in my defense I only saw the short version.
I shouldn’t have been surprised. After all, James always has been hilarious. The portly comedian first came to widespread public attention when he became TV’s King of Queens, a sitcom which celebrated a nine-year run on network. By any measure, that’s great success.

2009 Golden Globe Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Prime Time, Cable, HBO, NBC, News,
One year after a strike-induced absence, the drinking resumed. Although the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards drew its usual set of followers tonight, this year’s program carried even more significance than usual. The reason? Heath Ledger.
With or without the Dark Knight nomination, the ceremony would have been interesting. Was this going to be the year a film about an Indian game show (Slumdog Millionaire) won top prize? Would either Meryl Streep (Mamma Mia, Doubt) or Kate Winslet (Revolutionary Road, The Reader) walk away with two awards? Could Mickey Rourke‘s comeback performance in The Wrestler earn him a surprise win over Sean Penn (Milk)?
To find out the answer to these questions (and many more), you can read our detailed coverage after the jump!

Jack Black to Get Some Office Work Done
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, NBC, The Office, Gossip,
Singer/actor Jack Black will make an appearance on The Office, enjoying a rather cushy spot on the schedule: he’ll be on right after the Super Bowl. It’s a tough act to follow, but somehow I think Black can pull it off.
The episode, titled “Stress Relief,” will originally air on February 1 and involve a bootlegged movie. How will Black factor in? So far, the network is giving any details.

Although a looming SAG strike may threaten next year’s Academy Awards, the Golden Globes ceremony should finally go on as planned. The 66th annual event is scheduled to air on Sunday, January 11th, just 11 days before the Oscar nominations are announced.
Here are some of the noteworthy mentions from this year’s list of film nominees:
- Frost/Nixon and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button both led the field with five nominations each.
- Despite being chosen Best Film by the New York Film Critics, Sean Penn was the only nod Milk received by the HFPA.
- Meryl Streep earned two nominations for her work in Doubt and Mamma Mia.
- Kate Winslet is also up for two awards. Her films - Revolutionary Road and The Reader - are also up for Best Picture.
- Heath Ledger did get a posthumous nomination as expected.
- Although he was recently recognized for his acting work in Gran Torino, director Clint Eastwood (Changeling) was only acknowledged for his musical achievements.
