Will Ferrell Confirms There’s a Script for Zoolander 2 and Mugatu Is Returning

September 14, 2014

(via JoBlo)

While Justin Theroux and Ben Stiller have hinted that a sequel to Zoolander might be on the horizon soon, it has only been hints and rumors that we might get to see Blue Steel from Zoolander’s visage once more.

However, Will Ferrell has commented in a recent interview with JoBlo that a script is indeed in place that will have a read through soon and the villainous fashion designer Mugatu that he plays is set to return in the sequel.

That still leaves plenty to be do with actually getting cameras rolling, but, for now, this is great progress where there hasn’t been any for years.

Watch Jake Johannsen Returns to Letterman For Umpteenth Time

September 14, 2014

cbs, jake johannsen, late show, letterman

In the world of late night, there are comedians that have mastered doing stand-up in the pinpoint, condensed style of delivering material without seeming pinpoint or condensed that most late night talk shows require. That’s part of the reason that a handful of stand-ups get to do several sets/make several apperances on several different shows.

One of those comedians is Jake Johannsen and you can see his latest appearance from this week amongst dozens over the last few decades here.

Even if it is an accident, it will be a great one that you should attend. So, get your tickets for the Accidental Comedy Festival.

Reunion of National Lampoon’s Vacation’s Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo Closer to Happening at ABC

September 13, 2014

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo, who co-starred in all of the National Lampoon’s Vacation movies, have been working on developing a project at ABC where they would again be a married couple, but, this time, would have to deal with their grandkids.

8 months ago, when the project was announced, there was no writer. Now, Brad Copeland has been set as the writer as ABC has made a script commitment to the project.

If this gets a greenlight, we wonder if there would be any crossover or recognition of the Vacation reboot with Ed Helms.

Gabe Liedman and Jenny Slate Read Jenny’s “Screenplay” at The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail

September 12, 2014

Gabe Liedman and Jenny Slate are besties, in case you don’t know. So, when they’re on The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail on Comedy Central, they are, of course, going to read a screenplay, that may just be more than a screenplay.

For the rest of us, it’s just a movie that we hope gets made even though it’s around 4 pages long.

Today Is The Last Day to Help Kurt Braunohler Send Goats and Chickens to African Families in Need

September 12, 2014

heifer international, indiegogo, jet ski for goats, kurt braunohler

Even though Kurt Braunohler completed the absurd Herculean task of jet skiing from Chicago to New Orleans, there’s still around $17,000 to raise for his $50,000 goal on indiegogo to support Heifer International in sending 500 goats and 1000 chickens to African families in need.

Kurt is willing to put up his limited edition “Keep It Dry” towels for those who donate. So, you have until the midnight tonight before the campaign ends.

Also, getting a towel that says “keep it dry” could double as a symbol of solidarity in conserving water during this California draught.

Rick and Morty Promotional Spaceship Up for Auction on eBay

September 12, 2014

adult swim, auction, rick and morty, space ship

The fantastic Rick and Morty on Adult Swim are giving the public the chance to own the awesome giant spaceship that resembles the one Rick and Morty use in their adventures.

You can bid for it right now at eBay.

As of this post being written, the current bid is $620 and the auction will end in just less than a week. Also, do note, if you do win the auction, that the prop spaceship itself as it looks larger than life, it weighs somewhere around half a ton, probably heavier than most stuff in your life. As Rick would say, Wubadubdubdub.

So, before chatting about their IFC series, they played The Fade Away, a great song/a heads up to people get broken up with that they don’t know that they’ve been broken up with.

Michael Che to Co-Anchor SNL’s Weekend Update in Place of Cecily Strong; Will Leave The Daily Show

September 12, 2014

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

There’s been a lot of movement as of late ahead of the 40th season of Saturday Night Live. The latest change is Michael Che will return to SNL to co-anchor Weekend Update with Colin Jost. Che was a correspondent on The Daily Show, but with taking on this gig, will leave The Daily Show after his short tenure there.

Cecily Strong, who co-anchored Weekend Update last season, is moving back to being in more sketches.

After seeing Che on The Daily Show, we think he will do quite well at The Weekend Update desk.

Billy Eichner Gets to Yell at a Delighted David Letterman and Shares How Joan Rivers Helped His Career

Turns out David Letterman is a big fan of Billy on the Street and Billy Eichner. In fact, he’s so much a fan that he gleefully played one of Billy’s game while Eichner was on The Late Show and thoroughly enjoyed getting answers wrong.

Billy also shared his experiences with the late Joan Rivers who was also a fan of Billy’s and helped him get noticed.

Hader thankfully talked about both things while on Jimmy Kimmel Live this week all for our enjoyment. Perhaps, the Kasem bit will make Seth Meyers’ Second Chance Theater?

IFC’s biggest series are getting into production for their latest seasons and, of course, they have quite the guest star list.

Pitchfork reports that a nice roster of bands will be featured on Comedy Bang! Bang! including The National, Lonely Island, Future Islands, and The Flaming Lips. Presumably, there will be some great jamming between them and Comedy Bang! Bang’s band leader Reggie Watts.

Splitsider has found through Carrie Brownstein’s Instagram that Natasha Lyonne, Jeff Goldblum, and Jane Lynch, amongst others will join Fred Armisen and Carrie in Portlandia.

So, we can’t wait for the premiere of either of these.
