1. Legendary boundary pushing and, subsequently, groundbreaking comedian, Andy Kaufman, is going to posthumously receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Announced as guest speakers for the occasion are Kristen Schaal, Kevin Nealon, and Michael Kaufman, but we’d honestly be surprised if someone didn’t show up as Tony Clifton.

2. Jodie Sweetin is making absolutely clear that she did not want her latest movie, a rom com called Craft Me a Romance, to air on Great American Family, a more conservative, family focused network that loves rebranding homophobia as “preserving traditional marriage” (Yahoo). She promises to donate money made from the movie towards LGBTQ+ orgs. So, does that mean Sweetin is aiming to do an A24 movie soon?

3. Super high concept, sci-fi dramedy from Cory Finley, Landscape with Invisible Hand, just dropped its final trailer before its theatrical release this Fri. Aug. 18th. It gives a more than pleasant surprise of how Tiffany Haddish continues to dazzle with her acting range if you weren’t already sold on a satire about co-existence.

4. The brand new seasons of Solar Opposites, complete with the voice of Dan Stevens in place of Justin Roiland, has just gone up at Hulu. Yes, that includes all episodes so you can binge Stevens’ gorgeous British accent all in one go.

5. Uh, Burbank and North Hollywood are having comedy festivals at the same time?

The overwhelming majority of what you can see at the legendary Comedy Store on the Sunset Strip is some of the biggest names and the up-and-comers nipping at their heels doing stand-up. That said, there are things that a little offbeat that happen upstairs in The Belly Room such as an entire family style dinner/comedy talk show that the one and only Full House star Jodie Sweetin hosts.

Each comedian on the line-up brings their very own dish to share and enjoy (or, conversely, be curious about?), which provides for the wondrous experience of getting all the fun of a chaotic family dinner, but not having to deal with your very own family. This round of Family Dinner with Jodie Sweetin is set for Sat. Mar. 11th at 8PM at The Comedy Store with comedians LA scene favorite Rob Haze, director of Comedy Store docu-series Mike Binder, and delightful comedy multi-hypehate Vanessa Guerrero.

Tix are $15 (plus 2 drink min.) and you can (and very much should) go get them here.
