Jack Black shared that he was unaware of who his musical counterpart would be for the SNL episode until he received a call from Jack White. Black recalled, 'He was like, 'What do you think, should we do this SNL thing?' I was like, 'What are you talking about?' And he was like, 'Wait, they didn't tell you?' I was like, 'No, you're going to be the musical guest?'

The crew walked off the Bonfire Legend production late last week and has called a strike against the production, citing a series of labor issues.

MarcAurele knew he had to strike while the iron was red-hot, so he got to writing, and in just three short weeks he was bringing the show to life, complete with a number that explored the inherent musicality of that bike scene and another that featured a chorus lauding 'gay hockey players with big butts' as if they were singing a church hymn.

Knumears is releasing their debut album Directions on April 3, showcasing their unique sound within the Los Angeles screamo scene. The album is available through Run for Cover and Summer Shade.

Colbert began his monologue by stating, 'Folks, it was a big night on all the broadcast networks. Donald Trump at 9 o'clock gave a national prime time address. It was concise, intelligent, and brought the nation together with shared purpose.'

Under the ABS challenge system, a team begins each game with two challenges. If a player gets an umpire's call overturned, their team retains the challenge. In effect, this means a team has unlimited challenges until they get two wrong.

This season on 'Deli Boys,' the Dars are drowning in dirty cash and Philly's sketchiest crooks are circling. Enter Max Sugar: casino king, money launderer, and Lucky's new crush who turns laundering into a chaotic situationship.

The final show I review below got me looks that made me feel like a fish in a bowl. First, the private security at the door had two Valiant rent-a-cops who scowling at me-and only me-with that same 'Give me an excuse!' glare I've gotten from real cops all my life.

Kamrooz Aram is everywhere this year, from Mumbai Art Week to the Whitney Biennial, and critic Aruna D'Souza is grateful. She pens a beautiful meditation on his work, reading his abstract paintings as not simply a denunciation of Western modernism nor a reassertion of Islamic visual motifs, but something else entirely - something gestural, exuberant, riotous, and incomparably his own.

Steve Martin Writes the Written Word is an aptly-named collection and excellent introduction to the comedian's best writings, including some new material. In another piece, he makes the list of 100 greatest books he read laugh out loud funny with fake titles such as "Omelet: Olga - Mnemonic Devices for Remembering Waitress' Names" and "Marijuana! Totally Harmless (can't remember author)."

ARMY Twitter was aflutter with accusations that the warm-up comic for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon made a racist joke. He said, 'Anybody here from the North? No? Nobody?' Fans interpreted that as being directed at the band, implying that one of them was from North Korea.

The New York Comedy Film Festival has announced the full lineup for its inaugural edition, running February 15-22, with screenings and events taking place at venues including Asylum NYC and the Baruch College Performing Arts Center. Spanning a full week, the festival aims to showcase the range of comedic storytelling on screen, from broad laughs to darker, more experimental takes, across features, shorts, series and documentaries.

Readers who saw my previous post will recall its focus on a recurring pattern of laughter and humor found during my deep dive into the humor of the Seinfeld series. I wondered why we tend to laugh at various things going into our bodies and tried to explain why we might be so inclined using the Mutual Vulnerability Theory of Laughter.
