I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Being on television is the best way to make yourself look like a complete jackass. Take this little girl, for instance, who’s asked a simple question on a game show. Now, just getting answer wrong would be one thing. But getting the answer this wrong is something else entirely.
Let’s face it – we’re addicted. Every single one of us. We’re addicted to ‘tweets’ and ‘blogs’ and cute f**king kittens. We’re addicted to staying in touch with everyone we’ve ever met (and plenty of people we’ve never met), to talking sh*t anonymously to strangers and laughing at other’s misfortune. And it’s high time somebody show this every-growing monstrosity called the Internet who’s the g*ddamn boss! Which is where Tosh.0 comes in. (more…)
I’m not exactly sure how these guys came up with the idea to use a TV in place of a soccer ball or a hacky sack, but something tells me it involved being really, really bored. Either that, or they thought they would win the Break.com College Break Contest, which they did. So, good move! You know, along with all the other good moves.
Really, can anything go wrong with a celebrity endorsement? OK, other than their latest movie/album/TV show turning into a flop. Or them getting caught on camera beating a hooker while wearing your clothing line.
OK, so a lot can go wrong. But maybe nothing is worse than when the celebrity’s troubles have a cruel, ironic connection to the product they’re endorsing, turning your multimillion dollar ad campaign into an exercise in unintentional hilarity.
Tonight, Jimmy Fallon will take the stage in the first ever episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. And needless to say, he’s got a big task ahead of him – maybe too big.
Not only does he have to follow in the footsteps of comedic genius, Conan O’Brien to, he has to stop being such a humongous douchebag. Which is no easy task; Fallon’s douchiness runs deep and wide, from his spastic, laugh-at-his-own-jokes style to his asswipe hair, to just not being funny.
Of course he could still pull it off. Some insiders are saying he’s going to totally geek-out in an attempt to build a loyal fanbase and wash away some of the haters. So maybe we’re wrong, but if you ask us, the whole thing stinks of failure even before it gets out of the gate. (more…)
Over the past few years, it’s become glaringly apparent that Hollywood is suffering from a crippling idea shortage. We’ve seen a fourth Indiana Jones, a third Underworld, a third Mummy, a fourth Scary Movie, a fifth Saw… it’s pretty pathetic. Of course, the endless sequel thing isn’t completely abnormal. Jaws, Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street all saw countless followups through the ’80s and ’90s. However, what is a new and very annoying trend in Hollywood is the needless remaking of movies and TV shows. (more…)
This German Eurovision host thought it would be a good idea to talk about his co-hosts ‘points’ and then give them a grab. But I bet he didn’t think he would be getting the sh*t slapped out of him on live TV, in front of all of Europe. Awkwaaaarrrrrrrdd…
Everybody knows the Barack and Michelle Obama are in a genuine relationship, with genuine love and affection for each other. But I bet you didn’t know THIS little tidbit. My question is, how does this woman know this?
OK, I’ve got this idea for a television show: We’ll get a bunch of hot girls in bikinis, cover them in KY jelly and line them up in a row. Then we’ll have weird middle aged dudes try to slip N’ slide across them, and whoever makes it the farthest wins! It’s gonna be great… Oh, the Japanese already did that? Figures… (more…)
“The Naked Man is going to revolutionize the one-night stand like the forward pass in football or the slam dunk in basketball,” said Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) during last night’s episode of “How I Met Your Mother.” And we think he’s right.
A revolution in man-dom, “The Naked Man” is a last-resort move to get laid, used when you have nothing to lose at the end of a mediocre first date. And it all comes from the prophet, Mitch. In the beginning of last night’s episode, Ted walks into the apartment to find Robin’s date, Mitch sitting on the couch buck naked. Mitch, explaining his lack of clothing, tells Ted all the rules to the Naked Man: (more…)
