1. The hilarious Molly Ruben Long got diagnosed with breast cancer a week ago and then went ahead and hosted a comedy show in a NYC bookstore with these breast cancer jokes. Round of applause right now wherever you are for Molly. Please send her well wishes/support/good vibes/whatever you can.

2. Following parting ways with Upright Citizens Brigade as a brand, Amy Poehler is now taking her improv talents to Masterclass (for grown-ups not looking to be on SNL?) (Variety)

3. Take your first gander at the nostalgia machine marching on in the first image of Eddie Murphy reprising his iconic Beverly Hills Cop role as Axel Foley.

4. Critically acclaimed (and even with that, not talked about enough?) dramedy Unprisoned is getting another season (Deadline). Kerry Washington has the most fun she’s had in years in a role on top of a fascinating dissection of life post-incarceration.

5. We’ll leave you with this: If you must watch cis straight white men do stand-up, know that there are plenty that are great and aren’t even remotely controversial. Case in point, Joe Zimmerman with one of the best specials of the year.

Whatever your initial knee-jerk reaction to this news, we should be all glad that Eddie Murphy is, once again, playing Axel Foley.

Paramount and Eddie Murphy Setting to Bring Beverly Hills Cop Back to the Big Screen

While there was some interest about there being a Beverly Hills Cop TV show, there should be much more excitement that Eddie Murphy is setting to return as Axel Foley on the big screen.

If this actually gets made, this would be one of the few Eddie Murphy comedies over the last couple of decades that people won’t immediately be making fun of for years.
