In this segment, learn about one of the biggest milestones that too often gets overlooked in the historic space race back in the 60s and also enjoy the great Kyle Kinane really coming correct to an episode of Drunk History, complete with an “appropriate” hat.
Everything here is as exactly as you read in the headline, though we’re not exactly sure about the “beaver” part.
Adult Swim put the premiere of Jon Glaser’s Neon Joe: Werewolf Hunter on YouTube ahead of the premiere that’s less than two weeks away. However, to entice you to tune in on Mon. Dec. 7th at midnight to watch the actual, unaltered televised premiere, they have put this whole first episode with a caveat.
They “projected” it onto an image of a moon, which they’re calling a “beaver moon” because if you can watch stuff on a beaver moon, why wouldn’t you?
Still, you can watch the whole episode in its entirety for free, courtesy of the fine folks of Adult Swim. Maybe some of you prefer ‘beaver moon definition’ as opposed to HD?

Lawrence has got Oscar bait and big tentpole film franchises under her belt. Now, on to comedy.
Project Delirum will be the second comedy project that Jennifer Lawrence currently has in the works. Already, she writing a sisters comedy with Amy Schumer and now she’s attached to direct this feature delving into the drug-fueled military experiments of the 60s and how wrong they went.
If her successes from Winter’s Bone to Silver Linings Playbook to The Hunger Games to more as well as her hitting it off as friends with Schumer and her general off camera demeanor suggest anything, we’d wager that she’s going to make a big splash in comedy coming up.

Just in case New Yorkers have wised up to Billy Eichner’s act on Billy on the Street, Billy has this challenge which pits strangers against other strangers against Billy.
Either way, Eichner is animated the whole way through, the key to any Billy on the Street game.
It may not be a lot, but Anomalisa racked up 4 nominations.
Thought provoking dramas comprise the majority of this year’s field of nominees at The Film Independent Spirit Awards with such excellent entries as Spotlight and Diary of a Teenage Girl.
However, comedies, albeit thought provoking ones, found their way in.
Charlie Kaufman’s Anomalisa, which we have only heard praise for, is up for Best Feature, Best Director (w/Duke Johnson), Best Screenplay, and Best Female Lead (Jennifer Jason Leigh).
The brilliant Swedish existential comedy A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence from Roy Andersson is up for Best International Film.
You can the rest of the nominees here.
Hopefully, either or both will take home a statue to offer something not so sobering in the field of winners. The ceremony takes places at the end of February next year.
If you think Thanksgiving doesn’t get enough songs honoring it, just think about what World Toilet Day must feel like.
Fortunately, Reggie Watts and his band Karen have got World Toilet Day and whatever else is on James Corden’s holiday wheel covered.

Shut up and take my… oh, you know the drill by now.
Futurama: Game of Drones will be the latest connection to the beloved series Futurama that fans keep alive enough to justify something new. Futurama writer and producer Patric Verrone is on board along with Wooga and Fox Digital Entertainment in case you’re wondering how in line this game will be with the actual series.
As you might imagine, a game version of Futurama will involve their very ill advised deliveries in competition with another interstellar delivery service.
So, at this point, it would seem that Futurama fans only need to wait a few years for some new Futurama-related release to come around.
Coming to theater and VOD next week, Adam Pally and Rosa Salazar really test the limits of how two people should haphazardly fall in love in the film festival hit Night Owls.
Just see it in this trailer, then look for its release on Fri. Dec. 4th.

Netflix is smart to stay in the Bob Odenkirk business.
WIth Bob & David has only been on Netflix for a little bit and already, Netflix is planning their next move with Bob by picking up the film he stars in and co-wrote with Philip Zlotorynski and Eric Hoffman, Girlfriend’s Day.
In the movie, Odenkirk, as a greeting card writer, tries to clear his name from being accused of murder.
Like, Beasts of No Nation, you’ll have the chance to see it in limited release in theaters as well as on Netflix.
Between Better Call Saul, With Bob & David, this film, and probably more on the way, we’re glad to see Odenkirk back in the limelight as big as he has ever been.
As Thanksgiving nears, Butterball has opened up their annual Butterball Turkey Talk-Line for those looking for questions on how to prepare their turkeys.
So, Stephen Colbert gave them several calls on last night’s Late Show and asked about turkeys as well as other non-related turkey questions.
The latest episode of Cameron Esposito and Rhea Butcher’s web series She Said over at Amy Poehler’s Smart Girls gives us all a gift in explaining exactly what feminism is in a succinct and entertaining way.
For those who keep mistaking it for something that it’s something that isn’t about equality or those looking for a good way to summarize feminism in order to demystify people’s stereotypes, watch this video right here.

We’re going to venture a guess that both the MST3K loyal and newcomers to Mystery Science Theater 3000 will be pleased with this news.
As the Kickstarter to bring back MST3K has already reached its initial goal and speeds towards its stretch goals, creator Joel Hodgson has announced the folks that will being playing the roles of Mad, Crow T. Robot, and Tom Servo as well go into some detail over the dynamics of this new iteration of MST3K.
Earlier today, Joel sent the update out that Felicia Day will be playing Mad (specifically Kinga Forrester, the daughter of Dr. Clayton Forrester), Hampton Yount will be filling the role of Crow T. Robot, and Baron Vaughn will be the next Tom Servo.
With Jonah Ray as the host, this almost rounds out a pretty swell cast, but, there seems to be a new role for an evil henchmen waiting to be announced.
Based off of who he got so far, we’re sure Joel has got someone great lined up for that role and that’s all the more reason that the Kickstarter should raise as much as it can to make as much new MST3K as possible.
Of the many comedic talents of Jon Benjamin is known for, singing or playing instruments or doing anything musically aren’t any of them.
However, that didn’t stop Benjamin from making a jazz album with actual, very accomplished jazz musicians playing along side him or, as some musicians might say, “carry his ass”.
Coming this Fri., Nov. 27th, off of Sub Pop Records, Benjamin will releasing an experimental record of him attempting an entire jazz album entitled “Jon Benjamin-Jazz Daredevil: Well, I Should Have…* (*learned to play piano).
Let Jon himself tell you more about the project and, most importantly, why he’s doing it.
If you’re a fan of avant garde jazz and experimental comedy, like we are, you can pre-order this record from Sub Pop right now.

Oh, we don’t know all the details, but really hope this goes to series soon because we suspect Matt, Jake, and Pat have something incredibly dark, but damn funny cooking.
Matt Ingebretson, Jake Weisman, and Pat Bishop have all made their way through the LA comedy scene doing stand-up and making various very funny sketches videos as Women Comedy, under their own names, etc.
Now, they’ve got their own pilot called Corporate, which will delve into the underbelly of the corporate world in a richly dark, satiric manner over at Comedy Central.
We can’t for sure, but perhaps it might be something a little like this fantastic Women sketch that Pat and Jake made awhile back.
Well before any image of Baskets came out, the Louis C.K. and Zach Galifianakis series that follows a man trying to become a highly respected clown was already set as one of the most highly anticipated comedy series to come out next year.
Now that we’re seeing some promos roll out, it’s even more enticing than whatever we were imagining and, though we already really wanted to see it, we somewhat inexplicably really want to see it.
Just watch these latest promos and you’ll be right there with us, itching for the premiere.
Keep in mind that you’ll be itching until Jan. 21st, Baskets’ premiere date.

See? Having a genre defying, dark romantic musical comedy TV series isn’t so crazy.
The first season of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is going to feel more like a full-fledged TV season with five extra episodes having been ordered at The CW.
Hopefully, this will lead to a renewal pretty soon and keep CW’s comedy streak along with Jane The Virgin going.
The second special episode of No, You Shut Up! with Paul F. Tompkins is now on YouTube in full, thanks to Fusion.
You can see more puppets and Paul debate it out as well as Patton Oswalt “announce” a presidential run and the NYSU team actual talk to real life California State Assembly member, Ted Lieu.
Watch it all here to get your NYSU fix until it comes back for its fourth season on Feb, 4th.
As of right now, there is still no female hosts in late night.
Come February 2016, that will all change once again when Samantha Bee takes up the mantle and push forward from where Chelsea Handler was at E!
So far, she’s off to a good start with this Star Wars-themed, complete with the voice of Darth Vader, promo.
9PM on PBS.
While Eddie Murphy has already received his actual Mark Twain Prize for Humor at the ceremony, the rest of us only know that he ribbed Bill Cosby during his acceptance speech.
We don’t know what Kevin Nealon Jay Pharoah, and more were up to during the ceremony, but it seems like they were there honoring Eddie in their own particular way.
We’ll definitely be curious to see if Eddie’s acceptance speech goes a little more into some bits/material/etc.
On top of his show getting renewed and his podcast cruising along as one of the biggest podcasts around, Marc Maron also has a comedy special, More Later, coming next week to EPIX.
Just like you’re used to, he has got his stool to perch on and all the anxieties and neuroses to break down and examine hilariously as this preview shows.
Look for More Later on Fri. Dec. 4th at 10PM.

Between Undateable, having his own week @midnight, his fantastic album The Funches of Us, and everything else he has going on, things are deservedly going pretty well for Ron Funches.
So, at that’s the case, Ron is living it up his way as he explains during his panel interview with Conan this week. As you might imagine, a wrestling bed is involved.
From friends to family to America, Brett Gelman is all makng sure we’re all served up equal courses of horror and comedy.
There has been Dinner with Friends with Brett Gelman and Friends and Dinner with Family with Brett Gelman and Brett Gelman’s Family and now, according to Brett Gelman’s instagram, the very next dinner that Brett looks to be setting up will go a little broader than his last two dinner specials as he’ll be dining with America.
What we’re assuming is called Dinner with America with Brett Gelman and America (or maybe Dinner with American with Brett Gelman and Americans) is apparently set to premiere sometime in spring 2016.
This should give you ample time to prepare and catch up on the last two.
