Emma Stone Pokes Fun at Her Nerd-Friendly Image
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Video,
Emma Stone, or “that cute redhead the nerds like," offered up a low-key but solid Saturday Night Live performance over the weekend. Stone has been seen in Superbad, Zombieland and Easy A -- as her monologue pointed out -- and will play Spider-Man’s love interest in the upcoming reboot.
Stone, 21, handled the gig like a pro, effortlessly breezing through a monologue that helped her poke fun at her image as a nerd idol. Stone delivered both deadpan and quirky comedy, receiving strong support from the SNL cast throughout the episode.
View the entire monologue, one of the high points of the episode, in the clip above.

Barbara Billingsley, Famous TV Mom, Dies
Barbara Billingsley, one of TV's legends, has died. Billingsley was better known to TV audiences as June Cleaver, the mom on Leave it to Beaver. That classic TV sitcom ran on CBS in 1957, then on ABC until 1963.
“People still talk about it and write letters, telling how much they watch it today with their children and grandchildren,” said Billingsley several years after the show had been canceled. Though it was still very popular in 1963, the show called it quits after the sixth season because the two youngest stars, Jerry Mathers and Tony Dow, wanted to move on. “We knew we were making a good show, because it was so well-written,” Billingsley stated in the same interview.

Finally.
South Park will make MTV’s Jersey Shore even more laughable on Wednesday night. That’s when the reality series will be spoofed on the animated series. The episode features “Jerseyites” who arrive in Colorado. Randy and Stan Marsh will defend the town against the onslaught.
The cast of Jersey Shore are looking forward to seeing themselves on Comedy Central. “I Always Wanted To Be On South Park !!!” Pauly D tweeted upon hearing the new. “SOUTH PARK GOES JERSEY SHORE! WEDNESDAY! Yes! Finally!!!!!” Snooki added moments later.
Let’s hope they’re still being good sports come Thursday morning.

Lindsay Lohan in Talks to Host SNL
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live, Gossip, Video,
UPDATE: Insiders are saying that Linds won’t be appearing on SNL after all. Funny that the whispers arrived on the same day reports about two failed drug tests did.
Lindsay Lohan’s dance card is filled with post-jail and post-rehab commitments until November, but her schedule will open up a little just before the new year. How will she celebrate her extra free time? Why not with a hosting stint on Saturday Night Live?
Linds is reportedly in talks with the famous variety show to perform as the host on the December 4 episode. Lindsay Lohan isn’t the most popular person the show could snag, but the situation is rife with comedic possibilities.
The actress has already proven that she’s capable of poking fun at herself. Lohan hilariously hosted the show on May 1, 2004. Back then, she was sweet seventeen and about three years shy of her first rehab stay.

The Colbert nation has spoken…will the Comedy Central host answer?
Comedy Central fans have organized their own campaign to prod Stephen Colbert into hosting a “Restoring Truthiness” rally in response to Glenn Beck’s recent “Restoring Honor” rally, which was strongly backed by the GOP.
The idea seems to have sprung from a post on Reddit, and everything has snowballed since. A Facebook page and website have now been created for the rally, which has been given an October 10, 2010 date. A locale for the rally has also been named: Washington, D.C.’s Lincoln Memorial, where Beck held his event. Fund-raising and merchandising will help fund the rally. Any remaining monies will be donated to the charity of Colbert’s choice.
