In a rare appearance, the entire cast of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia – Charlie Day, Danny DeVito, Rob McElhenney, Kaitlin Olson and Glenn Howerton – stopped by Conan O'Brien's CONAN set last night to discuss Season 10 of their FXX hit. If you watched the episode then you know it was incredibly disorganized (mainly due to DeVito) and undeniably hilarious. During their segment, the gang promised more episodes of their series, which will be Season 11 –– contrary to popular belief the series was ending after Season 10. They also discussed that awkward love scene between Day and Olson, who has been married to creator Rob McElhenney for quite some time, the controversial making of Lethal Weapon 6 and, of course, we can forget about DeVito's Frank Reynolds supercut...

Fans of Will Smith are gearing up the for ever so anticipated release of the rapper-turned-actor's upcoming film Focus, which stars the former Fresh Prince alongside The Wolf of Wall Street's Margot Robbie. And while the two make a near-perfect pair, or so it seems, it looks as if much of the film's comic relief comes from actor Adrian Martinez, who stars as Smith's righthand man, Farhad. As the lead's "pit bull," as he exclusively tells MStars News, Martinez's character is one who finds himself skeptical of Robbie as she enters the scene and sweeps Smith off of his feet. Read More »

Perhaps one of the best sketches of this past Sunday's Saturday Night Live 40th anniversary was Celebrity Jeopardy. Why? Well, because it gathered some of the most iconic celebs (both the performers and the impersonations) together again for one of our favorite SNL sketches of all time. And while Darryl Hammond delighted playing Sean Connery, as he usually does, and Norm MacDonald thrilled us all with his famed Burt Reynolds/Turd Ferguson impression ... it seems that there was supposed to be a little more star power in there. And yes, Kenan Thompson did a wonderful job as famed comedian/alleged rapist Bill Cosby, but it seems he wasn't the first choice to play the role of the good doctor. So, who was supposed to? One time SNL savior Eddie Murphy, who appeared in the NBC studio for the first time in about 30 years – which turned out to be a bit of a letdown. With Celebrity Jeopardy, however, apparently Murphy ultimately decided he did not want to play the Cosby Show star ... according to Norm MacDonald's Twitter account. Read More »
