Here are some sentences I never imagined I would type: 1. There is a talking penis in the upcoming Pam & Tommy series on Hulu — namely Tommy’s penis. 2. The penis is voiced by Jason Mantzoukas. I suppose this begs the question, “Who would voice your penis?” I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR YOUR ANSWERS.

Jon Stewart will receive The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor from the Kennedy Center.

People really liked Yellowjackets — it is the second-most-streamed show in Showtime’s history. Speaking of, this article makes a good argument that if you’re looking for your next binge, Brand New Cherry Flavor on Netflix is a good fit for a 90s/horror/time-bending trip. I’d also recommend Archive 81 for the same reason, though the ending is … meh.

Did y’all know that the bodybuilding God Squad on The Righteous Gemstones was based on a real group in the 80s called The Power Team who preached “about the dangers of drugs and alcohol, premarital sex and gangs,” to teenagers and then performed feats of strength? Because now you do.

Just look at NBC trying to dance around having to defend their choice to broadcast the Beijing Olympics despite China’s human rights issues: “We’re going to be focusing on telling the stories of Team USA and covering the competition, but the world as we know is a really complicated place right now,” she said. “We understand that there’s some diff issues regarding the host nation. So our coverage will provide perspective on China’s place in the world.” At the same time, she added, “the athletes do remain the centerpiece of our coverage.” OK. SURE. By the way, they’re also not sending most of their announcers or hosts to China, but that’s because of COVID, not because of any political reason.

Speaking of the Olympics, the hot oiled-up Tonga flag-bearer …

… yeah, him, he’s raising money for his tsunami- and volcano-ravaged country, if you’re interested in helping out. 

According to TVLine, season two of La Brea will answer the mystery of who is electrocuting people. Have fun with that, y’all.

General Hospital buries Luke Spencer tomorrow.

Jessica Alba was mean to Jensen Ackles on the set of Dark Angel in today’s chapter of News You Can Use in the Year 2001.

A reporter was hit by a car on live TV, but she’s OK! She gets knocked down, but she gets up again. Literally.

GLAAD Media Awards have released their nominees.

Someone is making a space studio for some reason.

Congratulations, Adam Rippon and Jussi-Pekka Kajaala!

  1. The only person who should voice a penis honestly is Mantzoukas. It just makes sense somehow. Although it would be hilarious to have, say, a Morgan Freeman voiced donger.

  2. Noted garbage person Michael Weatherly was also (allegedly) a dick to Jensen Ackles on Dark Angel and then proceeded to base his NCIS character on Jensen’s Dark Angel character. I don’t care for Michael Weatherly …
