Happy 2024, everyone!
Its a new year with a soon-to-be new show on CBS.After Midnightwill premiere the day after the Emmys/M.L.K.
Day this year, and hostTaylor Tomlinsonwent onThe Late Showto demonstrate a proof of concept.
The point of@midnightwas deliciously simple: Tell the best, shortest joke, and win points.
Ick or No Ick did not seem to have the same simplicity of design.
If this show can give young adults the same inflated self-confidence, it will do gangbusters.
Also, Tomlinson hosted at Colbert quite well.
She controlled the desk, and Colbert was a game participant.
Heres who won the even less important award of funniest late-night clips of the week.
Jimmy Kimmel Claps Back
Jimmy Kimmel gave America a very useful media literacy lesson on his showMonday night.
Technically, comedians could say anything they want at any time.
They just dont, because its wrong/annoying/bad for the data pipe.
Thats service comedy right there.
The game works like this: Theres a stack of names of people everyone playing knows.
Another stack of cards is questions that are completely useless in determining which friend were talking about.
What kind of dog is Fred Armisen (dachshund)?
What piece of furniture is Rachel Dratch (ottoman)?
I want to play this gameyesterday,it seems that fun.
Kevin Hart Embodies Heather Gay
The nation is swept up inRHOSLCfever.
He can sell a line like a G-d bad Mormon bitch.
A lesser host would take the L and just let Dua Lipa go on with her life.
and doing it weeks later in front of a studio audience.
Sure, the tattoo is teeny.
But its there, and thats what fucking matters.
