Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Here are the jokes Nikki Glaser didn’t tell at the Golden Globes. (The Alec Baldwin one is ROUGH.)

The Golden Globes reportedly loved working with Glaser and will be asking her to host again.

Wait, hold up, The Simpsons is moving to Wednesdays? This feels very wrong.

Hoda Kotb’s last day on Today is Friday and Jenna Bush Hager isn’t handling it well.

This is a lovely visit to the Colombian set of Netflix’s One Hundred Years of Solitude.

If you’re just dying to give SNL some money for some reason, they are selling merch that ties into the 50th anniversary.

Following the death of The Vivienne, the first winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race U.K., Tyra Sanchez, the season two winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race, posted some really shocking comments and is being dragged for it. She continues doubling down, though, because this is the most attention she’s received in a hot minute.

GOOD.

Hoping Andi Dorfman is healthy and home with her new baby.

My heart is absolutely broken for Aubrey Plaza. Hoping she and everyone else who loved Jeff Baena find peace.

SO. The whole Blake Lively/Justin Baldoni mess blew up over the holidays, somehow even more than it already had?

Following Lively’s complaint against Baldoni with California’s Civil Rights department on December 20, The Voices of Solidarity Award from Vital Voices revoked their award to Baldoni for “advocating on behalf of women and girls”; Liz Plank, Baldoni’s co-host on his podcast The Man Enough Podcast, announced she was leaving the show; Sony Studios threw their support behind Lively and condemned the attacks on her; more stars came out to support Lively; and Baldoni’s former publicist, Stephanie Jones, sued Baldoni for breach of contract. (But stick a pin in that one, because it’s super messy, and Jones isn’t innocent in this mess.)

On December 31, Lively officially sued Baldoni himself, his studio, and the publicity firm he used and on the same day, Baldoni filed a libel lawsuit against The New York Times, claiming they conspired with Lively’s team to smear him. Ironic, I know. He also claims in the lawsuit that Ryan Reynolds pressured WME to fire him as a client, but WME is denying this. (Of course, who is WME going to stand with, the biggest movie star ON EARTH or the guy that everyone hates right now?) Oh, and his legal team is teasing countersuing Lively, which is maybe not the way to convince the world that you aren’t a retaliatory asshole, but what do I know.

In the wake of the Blake Lively/Justin Baldoni mess, Kate Beckinsale opened up about her own experiences of being abused on set over many years, including being assaulted by crewmembers, being called names by co-stars, and being forced to do a photo shoot the day after she had miscarried.

This is a good rant from Kayleigh Donaldson at Pajiba about how easy it is to smear women — Blake Lively, Amber Heard, Meghan Thee Stallion, Angelina Jolie — because our society is primed to hate and distrust women.

I would add to this that one of the reasons Blake Lively’s story is unfolding a little differently than the others is that, again, she is married to the BIGGEST MOVIE STAR IN THE WORLD, and in comparison, Justin Baldoni is relative nobody. It has nothing to do with Lively’s own power, but the man she is associated with. Long story short: patriarchy is a helluva drug.

Zachery Ty Bryan has been arrested for domestic violence again.

Noushin Faraji, a longtime hairdresser at Fox News, is suing the company claiming she was fired after raising complaints about workplace misconduct and refusing to have sex with host Skip Bayless.

Armie Hammer says he’s getting a lot of work and insists that people now recognize that he “got fucked” by the stories about his alleged abusive behavior. I am exhausted.
