Silicon Valley is on the precipice of its 3rd season and your favorite underdog tech crew is getting ready to make a stand, yet again.
Watch the teaser here, then look for the season premiere on Sun. Apr. 24th on HBO.
For all of those that thought T.J. Miller’s brand of chaos could really go either way as the host of the 2016 Critics Choice Awards, we hope you were watching the broadcast last night. Miller really went for it on his terms with his monologue that involved a gigantic multiple puppet contraption and all his bits in between the awards being handed out.
T.J. had a ball gown cannon (it’s exactly what it sounds like)…
…he read his worst review on stage…
…and, of course, did a Yogi Bear 3D (a film not favored well by critics) bit.
We sincerely hope this amount to many more hosting gigs for T.J.
Sunday will not stop me. @CriticsChoice @AETV I will host and people will laugh, cry, and vomit. pic.twitter.com/TM9YZ3Hlgu
At 5PM PST, 8PM EST, T.J. Miller will ensue with whatever his plan is to host The Critics Choice Awards, despite “warnings”
The broadcast is live on A&E and it might be worth switching back and forth between the democratic presidential candidate debate.
The main thing that you can be sure with T.J. Miller is at the helm of a show is that you’ll see something that will defy logic in a complex and layered way and also make you double over laughing at the same time.
His latest appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is proof of that and we’re hoping the same sort of wave of delightful abandon will be ridden by Miller throughout The Critics Choice Awards this Sunday.
These two promos give a good indication that TJ Miller is going to have a lot of fun as the host of The Critics Choice Awards.
Do keep in mind that they will be broadcast live on Sun. Jan. 17th at 5PM PST on A&E, which we have no doubt that TJ will take advantage of.

For those of you that think Ricky Gervais was going to do something crazy returning as host of The Golden Globes, you probably have no idea what crazy thing Miller is going to do as host of The Critics’ Choice Awards.
T.J. Miller has hosted numerous shows (Mash-Up, Crunchie Awards, and The Golden Trailer Awards to name a few) both as himself and a blue demon and in pretty much every case it’s been an experience that Miller can only conjure up.
That’s why we’re glad to hear that he’s getting bigger and bigger profile awards show to host like The Critics’ Choice Awards, which will encapsulate both The Critics’ Choice Movie Awards and The Critics’ Choice TV Awards. The ceremony is set to broadcast on Sun. Jan .17th on A&E, Lifetime, and LMN at 5PM PST.
Anything from Monty Python: Live at the Hollywood Bowl to the brand new variety series hosted by The UCB 4, The UCB Show, to Garth Marenghi’s Dark Place to SNL to The Kids in the Hall to The World of Alan Partridge to…
30 Rock, stand-up from George Carlin, Louis C.K., Sarah Silverman, Amy Schumer, Hannibal Buress, TJ Miller, Kyle Kinane, Reggie Watts, Sean Patton, Eddie Pepitone, Jon Dore, Bo Burnham, Donald Glover, Garfunkel & Oates, Tim Minchin, and way more.
Really, that’s just scratching the surface. Actually, since this is the beta version, it’s only scratching the surface of scratching the surface of what the beta version of Seeso has got in store for us all like Harmonquest, Hidden America with Jonah Ray, etc..
Oh yeah, we should have mentioned that all of this is free until Jan. 6th, which makes one hell of a Christmas presents from Seeso. Get into all of it here.

TJ Miller got everyone on board for him being a blue demon that interviewed bands in a TV studio he invaded with The Gorburger Show and now he’s going blue again, though not as demonic, in this new Slim Jim ad campaign with Greg the Genie.
Instead of snapping into a Slim Jim at the behest of Macho Man Randy Savage, you get a Slim Jim Wish from Greg the Genie when you snap into a Slim Jim.
Then, Greg tries in earnest to get you most of what you wished for.
He’s more of an upcoming genie…
…who is really trying to make his bones in the genie game…
…and for that, his granted wishes are extra special.
We sincerely hope there will be way more of these.
T.J. Miller, Mila Kunis, Bob Odenkirk, Susan Sarandon, Rob Riggle, Danny McBride, and Nick Swardson voice the characters for this stop motion animation romp through the underworld, Hell and Back, where two friends try to rescue their friend from the mistaken clutches of hell.
The writing and directing includes three Robot Chicken alums, Ross Shuman, Hugh Sterbakov, and Zeb Wells as well as Tom Gianas who has written on and directed anything from SNL, Mr. Show, Drunk History, Human Giant.
An R-rated stop motion animated comedy already peaked our interest, but this red band trailer should make Hell and Back all the more intriguing to you when it premieres Oct. 9th.
With a big dash of TJ Miller, the morning news is made all the better. Cities such as Omaha and Kansas City have found that out and now Detroit’s Fox 2 was the latest show to get the full TJ Miller morning news experience .
Watch TJ cover the weather, both physical and spiritual, do more “water bits” and…
…get into general goofball-ery with “The Nine” gang.
Clueless Gamer has just marked its very first multiplayer episode with a 3-on-3 showdown with Halo 5: Guardians.
Conan O’Brien enlisted the help of Aaron Bleyaert and Andy Richter to take on Thomas Middleditch, TJ Miller, and Zach Woods from Silicon Valley.
The results of the battle are all the trash talking, skill disparity based on generational differences, and bribing that you’d want from a Clueless Gamer battle.
When TJ Miller’s name was called for the Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series award at last night’s Critics’ Choice Television Awards, TJ, one for delightful mischief at awards ceremonies, took upon himself to do a bit reminiscent of his Conan in Chicago appearance.
Whether he had this fully planned or not, it’s still pretty great. Watch it here.

Your favorite blue demon talk show host is back and possibly better than ever as they might be on HBO.
One of the gems on TJ Miller’s resume that probably doesn’t get enough shine is The Gorburger Show where he played a blue demon that looks like it fresh out of Big Trouble in Little China and switched off between terrifying employees of the studio he invaded and chatting with a musicians. Somehow, it’s less absurdist than The Eric Andre Show.
Now, HBO has ordered a pilot where Miller gets to return as Gorburger and will talk to the likes of Ed Helms and Johnny Knoxville and get to do even more crazy segments that blur the line between Miller’s genuine curiosity and the bloodlust of Gorburger.
Keep your fingers crossed that HBO gets more into the TJ Miller business.
Given that he’s eaten beef in record time on Conan, this is all par for the course for TJ Miller.
TJ Miller continues to leave an indelible presence with every talk show appearance as evidenced by his latest sit down with Conan.
As the host of the upcoming Golden Trailer Awards, having a role in the Deadpool movie, and being the subversive Erlich Bachman on Silicon Valley, TJ naturally just talked about the craziest trailer that you’ll possibly ever see, some “unbelievable” details about Deadpool that Marvel might get mad at, and showed how to be Erlich in real life.
From seeing this and every other talk show appearance by TJ, you could easily cut together a full length comedy special.

TJ Miller will undoubtedly make a night of The Golden Trailer Awards that people outside of those in attendance and those who make movie and TV trailers will hear about.
On May 6th, Miller will again host a night honoring excellence in a specific field as he did at the recent Crunchie Awards. This time, it’s The Golden Trailer Awards honoring the best in, you guessed it, trailers.
Given every televised appearance he’s ever made, whether it be eating beef sandwiches on Conan or weirding out morning news show hosts, we’re sure TJ has something up his sleeve.
We can only hope that TJ keeps getting to host these sort of things more and more.
It’s a trend now that big music and arts festival have a solid comedy line-up and we’re definitely on board for that.
The Pemberton Music Festival that’s set to take place in Pemberton, British Columbia from Jul. 16th-19th is taking cues from SXSW, Bonnaroo, Outside Lands, Sasquatch, and more to have comedy alongside their massive music line-up.
So, next to the likes of Kendrick Lamar and The Black Keys, The Pemberton Music Festival line-up also has:
Reggie Watts
Tig Notaro
Ben Gleib
TJ Miller
Gorburger
Ali Wong
Harland Williams
Eric Andre
Cheech & Chong
Doug Benson
Chris Trew
Air Sex Championships
That’s right your favorite blue demon talk show host Gorburger is on the bill.
Now that we’ve peaked your interest, you can get your tickets right here.
We really enjoyed Jason Nash’s “Jason Nash Is Married” last year and thus we think Nash’s latest film FML: A Social Media Adventure could use your help.
Interestingly enough, Nash’s last film featured him doing a podcast as that was what he was doing at the time when he was putting the film together.
Nowadays, Jason has become quite the star on Vine with over 1.5 million followers. As such, he’s making this film with Vine stars as a buddy road comedy with two guys, him as one and Brandon Calvillo as the other, from much different generations trying to up their social media presence.
The likes of TJ Miller, Patton Oswalt, Rob Corddry, Busy Philipps, Ken Marino, Andy Daly, and Paul Scheer will be in FML as well as Vine stars Cavillo, Brittany Furlan, and Sunny Mabrey.
They’re looking to raise $200K and are at $22,663 with less than three weeks to go. If you want to help and donate, do so here ASAP.

When making public appearances or hosting anything, TJ Miller is always one to go for the hilarity of the spectacle. Miller has made himself a legend on morning talk shows, filled in wonderfully for Chelsea Handler on Chelsea Lately, had a “meltdown” when guest hosting The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail, and more.
So, it shouldn’t surprise you that TJ did some sharp crowd work at an awards ceremony and really got some nice roast jokes in on an almost all Silicon Valley (the real one) crowd as the host of Tech Crunch’s Crunchie Awards.
After all of this, you should definitely be looking to hire TJ Miller for your next high profile event whether your high profile event can handle it or not.
The second season of Silicon Valley premieres Fri. Apr. 12th at 10PM on HBO and the whole gang is going to be back in full force, seated comfortably in a repurposed living room at their computers next to their white board with a disgruntled TJ Miller in a robe.
Just check the first promo and then save the date.
Austin’s Moontower Comedy Festival just announced their line-up for this year and it’s indeed, as we said above, pretty damn amazing. Do they have Christmas in April nowadays because having Patton Oswalt, TJ Miller, Emo Philips, Tim Minchin, Bridget Everett, John Mulaney, Hasan Minhaj, Byron Bowers, and Eddie Pepitone just to brush the surface is a wish list come true.
Moontower goes from Wed. Apr. 22nd- Sun. Apr. 25th and you can an special early bird discounted badge for $99 right now. You should be clicking over to get that deal right now, so you don’t miss out on this.

TJ Miller continues to be a bridge between big tentpole action movie franchises like the latest Transformers movie and wonderfully absurdist comedy like The Gorburger Show.
Miller being in a Deadpool movie might just be a perfect intersection of the two.
All of us were lucky enough to get T.J. Miller on late night twice this week with stops at Conan and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.
Not that were any sort of medical authority, but we figure that you need a good dose of T.J. in your life. So, enjoy T.J. talking to Conan O’Brien about his performance art morning news appearances and then proposing only like T.J. Miller would and having all sorts of hijnks and then doing stand-up on Ferguson.
New Found Glory is going on a big ol’ tour called Glamour Kills and, on select West Coast dates, have gotten comedian Eli Olsberg to join in.
So, if you’re catching NFG on this side of the country, then listen to TJ Miller, Dave Ross, Megan Amram, and more, and catch Eli doing stand-up.
Last night was the very last episode in Chelsea Handler’s 7 year run at E! as the titular host of Chelsea Lately. To mark the occasion, she got 50 Cent, Miley Cyrus, Tim Gunn, Gwen Stefani, Dave Grohl, Melissa McCarthy, Sandra Bullock, Gerard Butler, Fergie, Jennifer Aniston, Avril Lavigne and so many other A-listers as well as so many of the comedians who have been/worked on the show including Fortune Feimster, Kurt Braunohler, Sarah Colonna, Kevin Nealon, Ian Karmel, Claire Titleman, Matt Braunger, Ron Funches, and way more to do a big farewell musical number.
It’s a touching sentiment that all these people came together and sang a song all about Chelsea Handler, but we would like to point out that around 1:27, TJ Miller is wearing the best suit ever and around 2:15, Natasha Leggero might be holding the best portrait that’s ever been held up during a farewell song.
