Kaboom!!! Hollywood Game Night is finally back on NBC tonight at 9p with all-new episodes. Not only does host Jane Lynch have a new house, but there are also some new games to play.
Tonight it is American Ninja Warrior hosts Akbar Gbajabiamila and Matt Iseman joined by Superstore’s Nico Santos vs The Good Place’s D’Arcy Carden, Marc Evan Jackson and Jameela Jamil. The first game they play is Kaboom which will scare the hell out of the contestants and us. Which is why it is favorite!
The second game is a new one. Each celebrity is given a movie title while the team captain is given the photo of an actor to hold up. If that actor was in one of those movies, then they need to run over to their leader to see if they are right. For example the celebs are given The Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates and Grown Ups, which movies were Chris Rock in? Now, does Whipflash make sense?
The third one has them trying to reach the buzzer in a pool of plastic balls. The next game is Sound Off where they are each given a word to say in their order, together the sound of those four words are the name of TV show. Sounds easy, but it really is not. Finally, it is time for Lend A Hand. That is where one player stands behinds another one and puts their hands between their arms. The person in the back has to get the other two players to guess what they are describing. It is really funny.
Actually all of the games are funny which is why this game show was responsible for bringing back the genre!
Before Jane Lynch and Andy Richter shared Conan O’Brien’s couch as guest and sidekick, they shared one as Carol and Mike Brady in The Real Live Brady Bunch. How groovy are the 31-year-old actress and the 25-year-old actor in that 1991 production that was the brain child of Jill Soloway. You know, the woman behind Transparent!
CBS has cancelled cancelled Angel From Hell after just five episodes according to The Hollywood Reporter. Why did I say cancelled cancelled? Because this is only the second show this season to be pulled from the lineup before all of their filmed episodes aired. The other show was ABC’s Wicked City.
The show’s star Jane Lynch confirmed the news on Twitter with, “Oh my newly minted #anghellions. Thank you for supporting our show! It is so sad but what a joy was had. 😇💋”
Is the news a surprise? No, the sitcom was from Hell. It was truly awful and I like the cast. This was just a really bad unfunny show.
So what will be replacing it on Thursdays at 9:30p? A Big Bang Theory repeat this week and then 2 Broke Girls will air their remaining episodes for this season in that slot.
Jane Lynch was on Conan O’Brien’s show yesterday and he asked her about the Febreeze commercial she did. She told him she was full of glee to do the ad because scents are really important to her. She likes the way a person smells naturally, so the TBS late night host asked her to smell his sidekick and him to tell them what they smell like.
She then took a big whiff of Andy Richter and told him he smells like, “fresh baby diapers.” Before you like ewww, she meant the ones fresh out of the bag and not the ones fresh off of a baby who left their scent in them.
Then it was time for her breath in Conan and she told him he smells, “eggy.” What that means, I have no idea but I never think of eggs having a scent until they are rotten and then you don’t want to smell like that.
I don’t think I want to know what I smell like to her, but then again I don’t know what my scent is anymore. I change my perfumes out like every day and today I smell like Plumeria. What do you think you smell like?
