Well, the line-up for the evening kind of speaks for itself (it seems half of late night is on this thing), but we should add that this evening presented by Will Ferrell is in support of the charity Cancer for College and their 25th Anniversary.
Tickets are going for $49-$500+ and you can get them here.

The upcoming Rock the Kasbah from Barry Levinson and Mitch Glazer starring Bill Murray has just released what is probably its best trailer yet.
Bill Murray is in full Bill Murray form as a desperate tour manager stuck in Afghanistan as you can clearly see here.
Look for Rock the Kasbah in theaters on Fri. Oct. 23rd.

Kaitlin Olson is taking some time away from Paddy’s Pub and the crazed schemes of Mac, Dennis, Charlie, and Frank to now trying to woo Rob Reiner who plays Jess/Zooey Deschanel’s dad. Olson’s character will also be rivals to Jess and Cece as they were at odds with each other since high school.
Perhaps, there will be a nod to Sweet Dee with Kaitlin saying something like “I will eat your babies, bitch!”
Zooey Deschanel & Anton Yelchin To Star in Dark Comedy ‘The Driftless Area’
Even with a vague description of being “pitted against a volatile crook” and “falling for a enigmatic woman”, The Driftless Area could be promising for the fact that it’s a dark comedy with Anton Yelchin, who you might have just seen in Only Lovers Left Alive, and Zooey Deschanel starring.
Perhaps, by “enigmatic woman”, which we’re assuming is Deschanel, there’s a chance that Zooey Could be the type of crazy enigmatic that she played so well on Weeds.

WHAT A MOM WANTS
If you’ve just checked out the site and haven’t watched the video, please do so!
Much love to Tess Lynch, Rob Delaney, Jill Kushner and Shelby Fero for participating!
(and yo, did you know Zooey scored this? Multitalented, that one.)
Yes, there are plenty of hilarious people in this video as listed above from new site, HelloGiggles, but it’s the first appearance, to my knowledge, of apparent comedy writer prodigy Shelby Fero (she’s 17 and listed by Patton Oswalt on who to follow on Twitter). Pretty amazing stuff all around in this video.
Remain Champagne: REDNECK HIPSTER
I wonder how an overly patriotic redneck hipster from Silverlake would talk? I think he’d sound…a whole lot…like this:
***
“All right. I don’t know how you do it in Victorville or Redlands or Fresno or Lancaster or Palmdale or wherever, but I’ll tell ya how we do it here in Silverlake!…
I bet this will happen in a year or so. Matt Champagne is ahead of his time.
