Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

George R.R. Martin made fun of himself for not finishing the Game of Thrones books on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and hahahaha, yes, great. NOW GET OFF MY TELEVISION, GEORGE, AND GO FINISH THE GODDAMNED BOOK.

He did say he’s “three-quarters” of the way done with it, which, according to Colbert’s on-the-spot calculations means it might be out in THREE YEARS. I remain doubtful.

Matthew Perry has written a book, and Flatiron Books, his publisher, has hired quite the publicist, because I can’t open the internet without another “Matthew Perry said ‘XYZ'” story falling into my lap. The biggest takeaways from the book have been about his struggles with addiction: he nearly died when his colon “exploded”; he had to drop out of Don’t Look Now after he nearly died in surgery while in rehab; and Jennifer Anniston confronted him about his drinking while on Friends, and tried to help him. The book also discusses how he came up with Chandler’s signature delivery and reveals that he has some sort of weird thing against Keanu Reeves, the Internet’s boyfriend. Now please stop drowning me in Matthew Perry stories, thanks.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Agency will no longer hold press conferences for TV shows and movies being considered for the Golden Globes. The press conferences were a point of contention, particularly for actors who felt obligated to attend and endure intrusive questions from members.

Ariel Elias, the comedian who was heckled and had a beer thrown at her by a MAGA lunatic (and handled it like a badass) did her set on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week:

They are still looking for the next host — or hosts — of The Daily Show, and are not necessarily committed to hiring from within after all.

Netflix’s very first series, Lilyhammer, is leaving the streamer next month. Though it wasn’t a Netflix original, it was the first show to stream on the service, and in the binge model which was revolutionary at the time.

Call Me Kat will honor Leslie Jordan with a title card at the beginning of tomorrow night’s episode. He had filmed eight episodes of the series before his death.

Let me be very clear, I love the changes Interview With the Vampire has made, with the time period, with Claudia’s age, and with Louis’ race and backstory. That said, I find it very curious that there hasn’t been the same sort of fan outrage about the changes, particularly over Louis’ race, the way we’ve seen with House of the Dragon and The Lord of the Rings. I can only assume the difference is that Interview With the Vampire‘s fan base is inherently less toxic than those two. Anyway, get over yourselves, racists! Sometimes change is good!

Tony Hale is down for another season of Veep. We all are, Tony. We all are.

Hey Ghosts fans: you will be able to ask Trevor questions via his haunted mirror this evening and tomorrow.

Melissa Villaseñor has revealed that she left Saturday Night Live after six years for the sake of her mental health. “At the end of the day, it was about my mental health. Last season, I had a couple panic attacks. I was struggling, and I always felt like I was on the edge of a cliff every week. I was like, ‘I don’t want to do that to myself anymore.’”

Good Burger 2 is apparently really happening:

DC has named James Gunn and Peter Safran as Co-Chairmen of DC Studios. Congratulations, guys! I won’t be seeing any of your superhero movies, but I’m happy for ya!
