comedy central Things must be a little awkward over at The Daily Show HQ these days. Not only is the show’s host of seven years skedaddling — and a little earlier than expected — but there’s talk that highers-up might replace him with someone in-house. But which correspondent? And wouldn’t that pit all of them … Read more
YouTube In addition to politely disagreeing on the internet with Martin Scorsese and shepherding about a hundred projects in development, the Russo Brothers have set their sights on converting the Oscar-winning Western Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid into a series for Prime Video.

Getty Image Queen Elizabeth II’s death was announced early on Thursday (September 8) and social media responded to it in a multitude of ways. Many laughed, celebrated, and trolled the 96-year-old. In one of the most humorous acts, the queen’s Wikipedia page was given a unique edit. Someone already griefed the Queen Elizabeth II Wikipedia … Read more
It doesn’t stop there, either. Trump is being prosecuted by the Manhattan district attorney, the New York attorney general, the Westchester County district attorney’s office, the Washington D.C. attorney general, Author E.

Mike Marsland / Mike Marsland / WireImage / Getty Images Despite announcing his departure from the Bridgerton cast over a year ago, Regé-Jean is … Read more
When Regé-Jean Page departed from Bridgerton, it was understood that he’d be moving (at least partially) into blockbuster mode, and that’s what’s definitely happening.

Jordan Peterson is throwing another tantrum on Twitter. The self-help podcast guru, who just signed a deal with the Daily Wire, is known for making bold, headline-raising proclamations about his internet use and then backing off, so it’s likely this is more of the same. Nevertheless, Peterson’s said he would “rather die” than delete a … Read more
