As part of YouTube’s “Comedy Week,” Zach Galifianakis held a very special edition of his Funny or Die web series Between Two Ferns which starts out like a regular James Franco interview but then gets weird real quick. Lonely Island and Edward Norton co-star, which is great, because we haven’t seen those guys in forever. (Edward Norton, where’ve you been hiding?) Read More

By now, you may have seen the local human interest/crime story from a Fox affiliate in Fresno, starring a hippie hitchhiker named Kai who saved the day when the man who picked him up decided he was Jesus and started attacking people at what appeared to be an outdoor thrift store convention a work site next to the highway. Luckily, Kai had an axe, and after Jesus (who used the N-word), crashed into a man working for Pacific Gas & Electric, the jam-bander took action, saving a woman from being bear-hugged to death by his former driver.

I heard that Fox News is secretly making these adorable Downton Abbey parodies in order to squash the liberal agenda. Because, as Stephen Colbert said, “The popularity of Downton Abbey proves that America loves rich guys. The same way the popularity of Breaking Bad proves that America loves meth dealers.”
Well, we would, if they made their pseudo-ephedrine while riding on the backs of stuffed animals! Read More

For as long as we can remember, the best game during sleepovers/on late-night drug binges/in girly blogs has been Fuck/Marry/Kill. If you are unaware of how the rules work, they’re pretty simple: you pick three people who share a similar Venn Diagram overlap (such as Disney princes, former prime ministers or Scientologist movie stars) and then go around in a circle announcing which of the individuals you would sleep with, marry or kill. One fate for each person, and no overlapping. So you can’t marry two people, nor can you opt out of killing one of them.
Fun, right? And now the game has been taken to a new level by Jennifer Wright and Ashley Cardiff of TheGloss.com, who have made a web series off the same concept with a slightly less blue name: Wed, Bed, or Dead. And guess what? It’s the Fashion Week edition! Read More

You know what? Screw what mom says, this guy is gold. What’s his name, Effi? Yeah, he’s great. Big improvement on that stuffy investment banker that you were dating last year. This guy is just such a free spirit, you know? You can just tell that he wakes up every morning and does that Roy Scheider thing from All That Jazz. Except instead of Dexedrine its his anti-psychotic medicine, and instead of talking to a mirror, he’s talking to his box of merkins. Read More

Did you ever wonder where late night infomercial hosts go after they ruin their career? I know I sure do! And now, thanks to InAPPropriate Comedy, the brainchild of ShamWow!’s Vince Offer, a man who was once arrested on felony battery charges after hitting a 26-year-old prostitute on Miami Beach. It’s rude, it’s crude, it definitely stole a font from CollegeHumor.com, and it also stars Adrien Brody.
Obviously, this will be an outstanding feature, remembered in the pantheon of films as being “like the Scary Movie franchise, but way worse.” Read More

Was 2012 a good year for films? Probably not the greatest, if box office returns and our own Rex Reed are any indication. But maybe it wasn’t the worst? We had Beasts of the Southern Wild, Argo, Cabin in the Woods, Django Unchained (well, it comes out December 25), The Amazing Spider-Man, a new Batman movie, the movie with all the other superheroes in it, a new James Bond movie, a new Paranormal Activity movie, the first Hunger Games movie, the last Twilight movie, Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, Cloud Atlas, Moonrise Kingdom, Les Mis, Life of Pi, Wreck it Ralph … and a bunch more. We can confidentially say that each film was great. Or really terrible. Or we didn’t see it.
At least, enough to make six minutes of a YouTube montage, which is actually pretty long for a supercut video, but the disingenuously named “The Sleepy Skunk” managed to mash all of the above features, as well as many others, into his 2012 movie trailer mashup. Enjoy? Read More

What do you think about when you hear the word “Brazil”? Does it conjure up pictures of beautiful beaches, buxom models, and tropical drinks? Or does your mind immediately go to darker places: Terry Gilliam’s nightmarish visions of bureaucracy gone mad, the slums of Rio de Janeiro, the torture of a Brazilian wax, or poor Eduardo Saverin?
Because, let’s face it, Brazil can kind of be a scary place. Especially since the country’s version of Candid Camera apparently involves terrifying the every-loving shit out of hapless victims who use their elevators, as exemplified in this YouTube video that has been making the rounds? Read More

We know you’ve seen the video of Mouseketeers Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, and JC Chasez singing “Cry For You” on The Mickey Mouse Club, back before their relative successes (and in one case, slide back to anonymity). But have you seen the video of just Gosling and Timberlake harassing the all-female R&B group Xscape? Do you want to? Are you sure? Read More

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey will be hosting the Golden Globes this year. This is a big “first,” since never before in herstory have two women been allowed to share the same stage in Hollywood, for fear they would start shredding each other’s clothes and tearing out clumps of hair.
But being on TV and being friends with Tina Fey aren’t the only two things Ms. Poehler is good at. She also gives #RealTalk lady advice to young women on her website, Smart Girls at the Party.
That is why ABC World News was impressed enough to name Ms. Poehler “Person of the Week.” It’s truly an honor, as the following video from last night’s broadcast clearly shows. Read More
