Before Michael J. Fox lost his virginity on Family Ties, he was getting his first kiss thanks to McDonald’s. How cute was the 18-year-old in that 1980 commercial?
Getting a talk show is groovy, but it does have some downsides. For example, producers like to torture their talent. They do so with animal segments, eating disgusting things, and scaring the hosts for Halloween.
Sherri Shepherd is back for the second season of her show Sherri, and today was one of those days when the producers got to have a little fun at her expense.
Brittney Levine was on the daytime talk show to demonstrate some TikTok finds, and the last one was so scary it made Sherri jump higher than a kangaroo.
That is because they made Sherri stick her hand in three different boxes filled with Halloween goodness to find out what was lurking inside. The first box contained Ramen noodles. The next one was filled with pumpkin guts. And for the finale, they had a lifelike animatronic spider waiting for her touch. When it moved, so did Sherri. She liked moved to the next block. And in Manhattan, that is like a mile.
Since I am a sadist, I hope the show does this to her more often. Sorry, Sherri, it is what makes me watch talk shows.
Last week, we got to meet the Reality Show Villains on House of Villians. And tonight at 10p on E!, we get to see why they earned that title.
House of Villians stars Jax Taylor (Vanderpump Rules), OMAROSA (The Apprentice), Corinne Olympios (The Bachelor), Tiffany “New York” Pollard (Flavor of Love and I Love New York), Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio (The Challenge), Anfisa Arkhipchenko (90 Day Fiancé), Shake Chatterjee (Love Is Blind), Jonny Fairplay (Survivor), Bobby Lytes (Love & Hip Hop: Miami), and Tanisha Thomas (Bad Girls Club).
The ten have agreed to live in a house together and compete for the title of Baddest Reality Villian and $200,000.
During the first week, they took part in their first challenge, and OMAROSA was the winner. She put Jax, Corinne, and Shake up for elimination. And tonight, the three of them are going to have to fight to stay in the house.
But since this is a house full of villains, they are not the only ones fighting. There will be sabotage. There will be tears. There will be vicious names thrown at each other. There will be alliances made and broken. There will be drama, lots and lots of drama. You don’t know who is going to hate on who. But enemies will be made tonight.
And Joel McHale has a front seat to this all because he is the host. How they got such a nice guy to do the job, I don’t know. But he is perfect for the role because he gets his little digs in.
However, they are not as bad as the digs the contestants hurl at each other.
I never knew I wanted a competition show full of only villains. But I did. And this show so delivers.
I also discovered that I could hate them even more than I did when they were on the shows that made them infamous.
And with that, I am going to say to you! If you watch Reality TV, then you NEED to be watching House of Villains. You are going to love to hate everyone but McHale, who is there.
If you thought that The Boys was bloody great, then you need to be checking out the school-based spinoff that makes the OG look boring. And once you start watching, you will be wanting more. And today, Prime Video announced that we will be getting more episodes. As if there was any question?!?
“We couldn’t be happier to make a second season of Gen V. These are characters and stories we’ve grown to love, and we are thrilled to know people feel the same! The writers are already working on the new season—sophomore year is gonna be wild, with all the twists, heart, satire, and exploding genitalia you’ve come to expect from the show,” added showrunner Michele Fazekas and executive producer Eric Kripke.
That’s right, we get to see a penis explode! And when was the last time we saw that? Besides on The Boys. But still. As a woman, I welcome scenes like that!
Therefore, I can’t wait to see what other sick and twisted torture they come up with this season, which concludes on November 3rd, and the next one.
Can you think of another superhero adventure where the good guys are so good at being so bad than the ones in The Boys universe? Take that Doom Patrol! And Deadpool! I said it, Ryan Reynolds. Whatcha going to do about it?
Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford will not be celebrating a year with Sweeney Todd because they are leaving the Broadway musical at 46 weeks.
The producers made the announcement today: “They are finally heading to the seaside. Josh Groban and Annaleigh Ashford will be departing Fleet Street on January 14, but you still have more chances to brave the chair dearie. Our tale is extending into Spring 2024!”
The producers did not reveal who will be replacing them, but I expect that we will find out soon.
Before they do. Groban talked about his departure. “The countdown begins. My heart is heavy but filled with deep gratitude to announce my final performance as Sweeney Todd,” the singer wrote. “To hold the torch of this monumental role for all of this year, alongside my dear friend and partner in crime @annaleighashford, has been nothing short of a life changing experience. This brilliant cast and crew and orchestra have given me so many gifts every single day. I will miss sharing Fleet Street with them, but will forever be grateful to have given audiences Sondheim’s masterpiece alongside them these last many months. I will truly cherish and enjoy to the fullest the weeks ahead that I have left. ❤️”
So if you want to see him in the production, get your tickets now because there are only a limited amount of shows left to see them.
