And so did Eddie, back in the day. Chappelle is still doing it. Watched Sticks and Stones yesterday. 

 

Yeah, I'm not buying this "you're not allowed to be funny anymore!!" thing. That's what the hyper-conservative folks like to say when they're not allowed to be overtly racist and xenophobic. You can absolutely be funny, just like Eddie was back then. Chappelle is proof of it for sure. You're absolutely allowed to be funny, you're just not allowed to be an *******.

ok - don't buy it.  We will see what Eddie comes up with.  I hope that he can be "funny" in this day and age, that's all I am saying, because he sure had a lot of material about gay people in both Raw and Delirious, that just wouldn't work today.

^^ Phenomenal news, that......too bad she couldn't take Aidy Bryant with her. Glad Kenan and Kate are confirmed to return...

maybe if that show that Aidy was also on was on a cable channel she would have been gone by now, but then again Portlandia aired on IFC or whatever network it was on and Fred Armisen was able to juggle both.

Well now we know why she's leaving

Another actor who thinks game shows help their career.

I wonder if the show will bring back those inflatable Deli Cheeses

An actress with limited range ... it's a smart move on her part.  Unless you're a main player SNL doesn't pay that much and it is a lot of work.

The book isnt even out yet

Even though I'm probably the only person here that watches it

 

With The Orville moving to Hulu from Fox, I wonder if Space.... errr,,,, CTV SCI Fi Channel (how original) will pick it up when it comes back in January? Funny how Fox picked it up for its third season then sold the series to Hulu.

For those of you locals in MB that watch the Amazing Race Canada we have to watch it live on CTV's website

 

well this is disappointing to read, apparently Josh Gad had creative differences with the guys that made Once Upon a Time

but Muppets Now is still going forward

 

I guess this can explain why we haven't seen Teri Hatcher in anything since Desperate Housewives

WOOOOOOORRRRRRDddd

I'm just kidding the only thing I really do remember about this series is that it came on AFTER Carmen Sandiego

https://tvline.com/2019/09/10/ghostwriter-reboot-apple-tv-plus/

John Seda is leaving Chicago PD. What the writers have done to his character (Antonio Dawson) is beyond belief. He used to be the one character on that series who was all about honesty & integrity. They turned him into a rat & an addict who knows his fellow detective Adam Ruzek is taking the fall for him. Hard to believe they'd destroy Antonio like that.

well it's nice to see her act again at least (unless I'm out of the loop and she has been acting still)
