@leanne.rooks As we say in Bristol, he thinks hes on a slider!
Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
It’s now your chance to own the “Ludicrously Capacious Burberry Bag” from Succession. It’s only $1750 at the moment, which seems like a good deal (but the auction will be going on for the next two weeks, so.)
Is Matthew McConaughey’s involvement with the Yellowstone spinoff in danger of not happening because Taylor Sheridan is a jerk? MAYBE.
Here’s a thing I just learned: Johnny Knoxville was offered a spot on Saturday Night Live doing his little prank and stunt thing, but he turned it down to create Jackass instead.
9-1-1 has resumed filming. It will premiere on ABC on March 14.
Katt Williams spent three hours on Shannon Sharpe’s podcast burning it all down, attacking everyone from Steve Harvey to Cedric the Entertainer to Kevin Hart to Ludacris and it was AMAZING.
Shannon Sharpe just said “Hello” and Katt Williams was like: I’ll begin with a list of everyone who I think is untalented in alphabetical order. After we finish up with that i’m gonna tell you about all the people who stole from me

And people showed up with some receipts backing up Williams’ claims, particularly of joke stealing:

While he said some … borderline crazy? things (anytime anyone brings up the Illuminati you should raise at least one eyebrow) … he also said some things that aren’t wrong, including:
“The problem with Friday After Next is that we’re trying to make a classic comedy, and this comedy involves a rape, and rape is never funny no matter who it happens to and what the circumstances are.”
and
“There are words we can use for a while, and we use them for a while until someone says, ‘That ain’t a good word, we should stop saying that, it doesn’t make people feel good.’ And we stop saying the word, and we move onto new words.”
Some of the people Williams dragged have responded, if you’re interested.
But then there is this from Deon Cole:

I know everybody’s enjoying the mess, but I liked this part of the interview where Katt Williams talks about his version of “tithing.” pic.twitter.com/0GFFKhdhh3
