Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
David Letterman is not holding back. When asked if he believes CBS canceled The Late Show for financial reasons, as CBS claims, he replied:
He was dumped because the people selling the network to Skydance said, “Oh no, there’s not going to be any trouble with that guy. We’re going to take care of the show. We’re just going to throw that into the deal. When will the ink on the check dry?” I’m just going to go on record as saying: They’re lying. Let me just add one other thing, Jason. They’re lying weasels.
And Jimmy Kimmel responded to the MAGA freakout about the Rudy Giuliani joke:
President Obama does not want to be Jon Stewart, thanks.
I’m not going to talk about the Met Gala except to praise these celebrities who chose not to go and legitimize that billionaire and his tacky wife. (Including Meryl Streep, who has The Devil Wears Prada 2 out there, and every reason to attend if only to promote that movie, and still said, “No.”)
The Boys series finale will receive a theatrical release on May 19.
There is now a real WKRP in Cincinnati. Please do not give them a helicopter.
Channing Tatum is crashing out over Zoe Kravitz getting engaged to Harry Styles. Maybe.
Congratulations to Jesse Williams and Alejandra Onieva!
Hoping Alyssa Farrah Griffin’s baby boy is doing better — what a terrifying thing for any parent to go through.
