Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Oh good, my cable provider is in yet another carriage dispute, this time with Tenga, which means my access to CBS has gone dark. Tenga owns 66 stations in 52 markets, so this will impact a bunch of NBC and CBS affiliates.

GIVE ME THE PARAMOUNT+/APPLE TV+ BUNDLE ALREADY. Also, MORE OF THIS. MORE BUNDLING STREAMERS.

Announcement of the new Daily Show host (or hosts) is expected any day now. Could it be Jordan Klepper and Desi Lydic? (Or is this just their publicists putting this out there to test the waters?)

Here’s a profile of Saturday Night Live‘s resident weirdo, Sarah Sherman: “… she’s like if Pee-wee Herman and Gilda Radner had a comedy baby.”

Looks like Outlander is going to get back to work soon. And The Last of Us starts back up on February 12.

Adam Brody sounds like he was a pain in the ass to work with back on The O.C.

Good for Kelly Clarkson. Fuck that guy.

I’ve been catching up with The Gilded Age and I can’t begin to express how accurate this is:

#stitch with @yumna 🍉 except the Gilded Age , which I hate so much, but also love and hate #hbo #thegildedage #tv #garbage #luncheon
