Let Jiminy Glick Host the Next Presidential Debate

“Glick is like an instrument Marty knows how to play.” Let Jiminy Glick moderate the debates! This was a popular sentiment online leading up to and following last night’s disastrous presidential Alien vs. Predator event on CNN. The infamously inept interviewer character was top of mind as his creator, Martin Short, guest hosted Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week, filming pre-taped interview segments with Bill Hader and Sean Hayes and “taking over” for Short to host an entire episode on Thursday.

Per People, Quaid proposed during a sunset stroll in Hawaii and definitely not in his very own Napa Valley winery, and, get this, we can’t even confirm if the couple first met on the Queen Elizabeth II or not.

Listen to Moses Belt a New Song From the The Prince of Egypt Stage Musical

Luke Brady as Moses. As with so many cultural events, the coronavirus cut the West End run of the stage version of The Prince of Egypt, but fate has found a way to (shout with me!) deliver us a cast recording of the production all the same, just in time for Passover, or Easter, or the yearly secular holiday in your (or at least my) household that is rewatching a DVD of the 1998 Dreamworks animated movie.

Lloyd Braun, the Man Who Says Previously on Lost

With Lost’s time-twisting plots, it seems only appropriate that the disembodied voice that has introduced each episode’s opening recap with the words, “Previously, on Lost … ” should belong to a figure from the show’s past.

Love and the History of TVs Attractiveness Gap

Last Friday, Netflix debuted its latest binge-ready romantic-comedy, Love, from Judd Apatow. The ten-episode first season, which depicts the dueling perspectives of a man and a woman in a relationship, has picked up mostly positive reviews for its realistic portrayals of dating, addiction, and dependence.
