Morning Debriefing 7/25/11
1) What, no monsters? How is this a horror movie? Oh wait, that’s hilarious. Please watch the Red Band trailer for Tucker and Dale vs. Evil
More Tucker & Dale vs. Evil Videos
2) Futurama doesn’t have to be raised from the dead for at least 2 more seasons.
3) Tonight in late night TV comedy appearances: Jon Benjamin (yes, the one from Jon Benjamin Has a Van) is on Conan (TBS 11PM) and Don Rickles will hopefully tell a better story on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (CBS 12:35AM) than he did on Leno.
4) Matt Kirshen on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon
5) You almost have to forgive Pete Holmes as a doctor if you’re diagnosis is given like this…
The Last Pizza Commercial from Brandon Routh
7) So there’s is going to be an open mic this Friday under a floodlight in a park… Also, they’re going to use a megaphone instead of a mic, which is why it’s an “open meg”.
