Pro-Trump dating apps aren’t just real, they’re deeply necessary. Several have popped up over the years, and they’re all terrible. Trump.Dating, for example, made headlines when it was revealed that the face of the service had a child sex conviction. Well, in the wake of that site’s failings comes Donald Daters, an…
After a week off to rest, recuperate, and drink nothing but absinthe (according to himself), Stephen Colbert returned to The Late Show on Monday to find that, yup, America is still getting dumber. Apart from the simple fact that racist simpleton Donald Trump is still in the White House (like, as president, even),…
On Sunday’s Last Week Tonight, John Oliver continued his weekly public service of processing seven days’ worth of hateful, dispiriting bullshit into a half-hour of expertly modulated, laugh-punctuated comic outrage, as he took a look at the United States’ long and morally queasy relationship with the oil-rich…
About a month ago, the Senate passed the Music Modernization Act, a piece of legislation meant to update the way royalties work for musicians and songwriters, and Donald Trump signed it into law today alongside the biggest/only music superstars he could rope in, including Mike Love, Craig Morgan, John Rich, Doobie…
Saturday Night Live veteran and Single Parents star Taran Killam swung by Matt Gourley’s wonderful I Was There, Too podcast this week for a candid, amusing talk about his life and career. In it, he chats about his surprising turn in 12 Years A Slave and his underrated directorial debut, Killing Gunther, but most…
Taylor Swift sent the dregs of 4chan into an existential tizzy yesterday by revealing herself to not be a closet white nationalist. In an Instagram post, the traditionally apolitical pop star came out in support of democrats Phil Breseden and Jim Cooper, both of whom are running in Tennessee’s US Senate race. If…
The last time adult film star and unlikely topic of high-level political debates Stormy Daniels appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, she was still bound by the various non-disclosure payments and other legal considerations surrounding her alleged affair with now-president Donald Trump. Things are . . . different now. As…
Yesterday afternoon, President Trump took to the podium for his fourth ever solo press conference since taking office and treated the American public to nearly an hour and half of semi-intelligible rambling and borderline slander. In other words, it was a normal day in America. When things like this happen that are…
In what Seth MacFarlane no doubt imagines will be a friggin’ schweet bit of television, Fox’s Family Guy will unleash its bright orange markers for a two-part episode featuring our shitty president.
This shouldn’t be taken as proof that the opposition to Donald Trump is really just some #fakenews, but Michael Moore’s anti-Trump film Fahrenheit 11/9 seems to be bombing at the box office, with the documentary’s returns coming in significantly lower than those of Moore’s own Fahrenheit 9/11, the Bush-era documentary…
This week, people from all around the world put their differences aside for a moment to share in one of the few enjoyable experiences left to us in these nightmarish times—having a good laugh at Donald Trump. While speaking in front of the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, Trump made one of his signature…
And so, the paradoxical quest to find a man who is somehow both a) willing to get on national TV and voice his aggressive support for Donald Trump, and b), not plagued by some form of TV-toxic racist or sexist scandal just waiting to emerge resumes yet again today. CNN has parted ways with contributor Jason Miller,…
Introducing former Secretary of State, U.S. Senator, First Lady, author, and person who won the popular vote by three million votes Hillary Clinton, Stephen Colbert had to wait for his audience’s extended applause to die down. And, sure, losing an election to a buffoonish bigot reality show host and confessed sex…
Alec Baldwin and Lorne Michaels both teased that the former would return to play Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live’s upcoming 44th season, which will presumably be every bit as filled with furrowed brows and “ew, I just ate something yucky” faces as its last.
Tracy Morgan, while hilarious, is not a comedian known for his great character work. The character of Tracy Jordan on 30 Rock was really just a slightly exaggerated version of himself, and one of his more memorable SNL characters, Astronaut Jones, was a tongue-in-cheek reference to his own lazy commitment to a…
It seems fitting that in this incredibly dark timeline Tom Arnold would emerge as a self-styled citizen journalist, promoting a show where he’s not just playing detective (a crime procedural starring Arnold also sounds pretty dire, though). The Hunt For The Trump Tapes includes the search for the so-called pee tape as…
Just in case you had any hope that the coming week was going to be easy, FEMA is going to test a system on Thursday that allows the president of the United States to send an emergency message to nearly every cellphone in the country. Of course, our president happens to be famous dickbag Donald Trump, so while this…
When the revival of CBS newsroom comedy Murphy Brown was first announced at the beginning of this year, we opined that it was the rare sitcom that would actually feel timely and relevant in the era of “fake news” cries and Trump’s reckless war of words against the media. Obviously, its creator agrees.
The Daily Show had already booked chef and philanthropist José Andrés to appear on Thursday’s show before Donald Trump started tweeting his latest baseless, self-exonerating conspiracy theory about the number of American citizens who died in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. (Short version, best read in Grampa…
Tim Allen has been on a big right-wing kick lately (or, you know, forever), with him noting in March of last year that the real Nazis are the liberals in Hollywood who think it’s bad for some reason when people are Republicans. Later, when his Last Man Standing sitcom was canceled, he argued that the show’s pro-man…
