A very, very bearded Stephen Colbert recently stepped back in front of the camera for a small interview with America magazine's Editor-at-Large Father James Martin to discuss Catholicism. It's the first time we've seen the once upon a time Colbert Report host since he ended his show, and we've got to say: we dig the new look. Colbert's appearance has been talked about for a little while, as he was first spotted out with the beard some time ago. But in this new video we remember just how much we really, really enjoy him, and even more so how much we want him back on television. So, come on, let's get the Late Show with Stephen Colbert up and running soon! Read More »
Last night, 60 Minutes aired the much-anticipated interview with Larry David, creator and star of Curb Your Enthusiasm.

We hate to bring more attention to this white and gold v. blue and black dress debate – because let’s face it, the media has been talking WAY too much about it as it is – but it seems that musician John Mayer has a thing or two to say about it via his Instagram account. And well, following those possible marriage and wedding rumors with girlfriend Katy Perry, we figure we could squeeze in just a little be more of Mayer into the news.

Looks like not everyone was thrilled with Dakota Johnson's appearance on last night's Saturday Night Live. Not necessarily because of her actual performance, of course. We're actually speaking of a certain sketch that has now caused a Twitter outrage online. In a father-daughter commercial parody, SNL player Taran Killam played a father dropping off his daughter, who was played by host and 50 Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson, at the airport. The sketch mocks the very same Toyota car commercial in which a father brings his newly enlisted daughter to the airport. In this bit, however, the daughter does not head inside, and she's not in the army. Instead, she catches a ride from someone else––ISIS. Which, as you might guess, is where the outrage came. The sketch left many viewers feeling that the legendary NBC sketch show crossed the line. Read More »
