The Reverend, but it’s fair to say you chose the incorrect options if you don’t get to see at least one of Carol Kane’s fantastic musical numbers.

For being one of the most beautiful and successful people in the world, Robert Pattinson comes across like a sloppy, basement-dwelling teenager in his new GQ profile.

When I was a kid, my brother and I had a game we’d play after school: How quickly can you guess which Brady Bunch episode you’re watching? One tip-off was the music: If the kids ran into the house to a tune with an upbeat tempo, (do-do-dooo-do, do-do-do-dooo-do…), it was likely a fun-filled episode featuring a…

As former Saturday Night Live stars, hosts, head writers, and fake news anchors, Seth Meyers and Tina Fey, not surprisingly, have a lot in common.
