JD Vance must hate those memes that show his face swollen up 50 to 80 percent more than its actual size. For a few delightful weeks this spring, anywhere you went on the internet, you could find a photoshopped image of Vance’s face. He’d be bald, or wearing one of those little helicopter hats, or sporting an even worse haircut than the one he actually has. But there was one constant: His face would be so…
SYDNEY – Saying the ruse began as a harmless prank about the continent’s mammals having pouches, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese admitted Tuesday that all those animals like wallabies, numbats, quokkas, and bandicoots were completely made up. “We just assumed everyone would have caught on by now, because these creatures are clearly imaginary,” said Albanese, adding that Australians were shocked that the rest of the world could be so gullible as to think there was…

In the South Park Season 27 premiere, “Sermon on the ‘Mount,” the long-time satirical series tells us that, in these times of struggle and division, we must ask ourselves: “What would Jesus do?” Meanwhile, Jesus just asked us, “Do you really want to end up like Colbert?” The public acrimony between South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone and their parent company Paramount seemed to reach a head last week when Parker and Stone enlisted the services of…
Heavy Metal icon Ozzy Osbourne died at the age of 76 on Tuesday, but he’ll still live on in the hearts of Black Sabbath fans everywhere and Hank Hill’s hometown of Arlen, Texas. Throughout the course of King of the Hill’s 13-season run and 15-year hiatus, fans have noticed an uncanny similarity between the Prince of Darkness and Hank’s Alamo-chugging, womanising pal, Boomhauer. Both are famed for their rambling, mumbling speech, and they each can…

Roughly five years after several It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia episodes were plucked from streaming platforms for blackface, redface, brownface and other offensive jokes, fans have found a way to watch them anyways — venturing to their public libraries in pursuit of the pulled installments. “Looking for banned episodes?

The Bear just scored 13 nominations at this year’s Emmy Awards, largely in the comedy categories that it has lately dominated in spite of its serious tone and subject matter. After all, as Chef Charlie Kelly would say, cooking is no laughing matter.

Sometimes, a prop or costume piece that goes largely unnoticed turns out to be worth way more than the movie it’s in. 5 ‘The Phoenician Scheme’s Priceless Artwork Wes Anderson’s latest joint features — you…
The Pickup stars Eddie Murphy and another former Saturday Night Live cast member as wisecracking “mismatched armored truck drivers” who are attacked by a gang of “ruthless criminals” and forced to rob a casino. And apparently, it’s coming out this year, and not in, like, 1997.
