Last night, HBO aired the Season 5 premiere of their hit series Game of Thrones. And while it was undoubtedly a crowd pleaser, the author of the books which the series is based off of, George R.R. Martin, was busy dropping his own new project: Lil Thrones. That’s right, Martin decided to create an animated cartoon parody of his famed Game of Thrones hit. And who better to unveil the video to the public than Conan O’Brien’s Team Coco? Read More »
After word broke that Hillary Clinton is running for President in the 2016 spot, we couldn’t help but venture back to this past weekend’s Saturday Night Live cold open – with host Taraji P. Henson and musical guest Mumford & Sons – in which key player Kate McKinnon portrayed Clinton prepping to make her big announcement. The sketch appeared to beat the former First Lady to the punch, and even brought back a familiar face: Darrell Hammond’s infamous Bill Clinton impression. Which got us thinking: what are the top five impressions of a President in SNL’s history? Is it Amy Poehler’s Clinton impression? How about Jay Pharoah’s flawless impersonation of President Barack Obama? Read More »

Who said CONAN host Conan O'Brien couldn't do chin-ups? All he needs is a little motivation, a challenge... and comedian Kevin Hart. To celebrate the fifth anniversary of her Let's Move! campaign – which aims at helping children live healthy lifestyles and fight childhood obesity – First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama decided to create the #GimmeFive challenge. Much like the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, this contest has a person challenge another to do five somethings (chin-ups, jumping jacks – something that makes them move.) When (and if) they complete it, that person is then required to pass on the challenge. Which is exactly what O'Brien did after accepting Obama's chin-up challenge. Of course, he did have some help...

Comcast is angry over a slew of Rob Lowe characters that include 'Scrawny Arms Rob Lowe', 'Painfully Awkward Rob Lowe', 'Super Creepy Rob Lowe', 'Far Less Attractive Rob Lowe' and 'Meathead Rob Lowe'. According to Comcast, DirectTV's claims of 99% signal reliability, 1080p HD programming, more sports and better picture and sound quality in the Lowe commercials are completely false.

All of whom are trapped in a room and forced to try and get out using hidden clues. Read More »
While the world was busy bashing Jon Stewart's soon-to-be Daily Show replacement Trevor Noah, the current host of the Comedy Central vehicle was busy trying to figure out the right words for viewers and non-viewers alike. And on last night's episode, he seemed to figure it out. Stewart kicked off the episode immediately detailing the "kerfuffle on Twitter" that Noah found himself in the middle of, largely due to some "offensive" and "sexist" tweets he dished out to the public in the past.
