Television appearances by Tom Waits are few and far between. That’s why we were upset back in April when the publicity-shy songwriter postponed his slots on ‘The Late Show with David Letterman’ and ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’ for unspecified reasons. However, Waits has announced that the dates have been rescheduled.
June 12, 2012 To friends who know me well, hear me out. I watch two kinds of television: CNBC or absolute garbage. HOWEVER, I have now stumbled upon the ultimate disappointment of the modern age. A show called "Redneck Island". See for yourself.
Jerry Seinfeld stopped by Bravo’s ‘Watch What Happens Live’ Monday night, and during the ‘Plead the Fifth’ segment the comedian was peppered with question about his hit show ‘Seinfeld,’ which is still all over TV in reruns 14 years after its last episode aired.
Florence + the Machine have been running at high gear lately, what with promoting their most recent studio set (2011′s ‘Ceremonials’), their recent live release (‘MTV Unplugged,’ out just last month), and keeping up with a busy tour schedule that found them headlining New York’s Radio City Music Hall earlier this week. Somehow, they managed to squeeze in time for a visit to ‘The Late Show With David Letterman’ last night (May 9).
‘Mad Men’ returned on Sunday after a nearly two-year absence, beginning its long-awaited fifth season with the revelation that Don Draper had married his secretary, Megan. (Admit it — you watched the entire episode while “Draping.”)
To celebrate the return of America’s favorite chain-smoking, liquor-swilling ad execs (and Christina Hendricks, of course), we’ve gathered some funny photo memes inspired by the show from around the Web. (Note: some images contain NSFW language and outdated views on women in the workplace.)
If you’re a fan of ‘Man vs. Wild’ host Bear Grylls, enjoy him while you can — the Discovery channel has announced it’ll no longer be doing business with the adventurer.
During a talk Sunday at the South By Southwest Festival, ‘Family Guy’ creator Seth MacFarlane confirmed that he’s working on new episodes of the legendary cartoon series ‘The Flintstones.’ Yabba Dabba Doo!
The website STDCarriers.com is a website that allows people to anonymously post a person’s name, location, photo and what STD’s the individual has. Does the finger pointer need proof the individual has an STD? Nope. How do you get your name taken off the website? Only by sending in proof that you do not have the supposed STD. I don’t want to scare you, but your name could be on this site.
South Korea is getting their own version of ‘Top Gear.’ Their first episode is bound to be way cooler than even the first episode of the original show, even if this massive helicopter crash wasn’t by intention.
Every year it seems like the summer movie season starts earlier and earlier. You can argue that last year it started in April with the release of ‘Fast Five.’ This year, you can argue that it starts in March with the release of ‘The Hunger Games.’
NBC’s ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’ continued ‘Bruce Springsteen Week’ with a surprise for its 600th episode. Although it was announced that Elvis Costello would perform Bruce’s 1987 hit ‘Brilliant Disguise,’ it was not revealed until the show aired that Costello, who’s got quite a good catalog of his own songs, would also record a second Springsteen song, ‘Fire,’ as a web-only exclusive.
During his post Oscar special, Jimmy Kimmel did a skit in which he pitched Oprah programming ideas for her OWN network. While clearly a spoof, some of Kimmel’s ideas, like ‘Fight Club Book Club‘ would’ve been sort of great.
‘Saturday Night Live’ was thinking about running a very similar skit during the show last week, with host Maya Rudolph doing her famous Oprah impression. But it didn’t make the final cut. However, SNL has released the dress rehearsal footage for the never aired Weekend Update segment on their website.
