‘The Boys’ fandom is getting mad at the wrong things again.

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Answer: Because it was BAD. Next question?

Jerry Seinfeld says Friends was basically a remake of Seinfeld, but with attractive people, and you know what? Maybe, kinda.

Stephen Colbert has given another exit interview, some two weeks before his show ends, and it’s as intelligent as you would expect:

Me being canceled reinforced a narrative that CBS already had a nimbus of knee-bending that they had created around themselves, because even their lawyers said there was no reason to cut the check, and then they did and gave no rationale for why they changed their minds, and then suddenly they got their broadcast license.

Causality is not the same thing as correlation, and I understand that — and not just because I learned it from the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, which reminded us that, yes, you smoked and you got cancer, but, you know, correlation is not causality. So maybe my cancellation was just a naturally occurring tumor that just had to be cut out of the corporation. I mean, that’s entirely possible. I would also say — and this is what feels most true to me — that two things can be true. It can be that the broadcast model is collapsing, and, while we’re at it, as long as we’re collapsing here, what if we shove this one out a window first? I mean, this lamb’s got a very cuttable throat.

Additionally, he reveals that his white whale guest would be The Pope; he sent Byron Allen a note congratulating him on taking over his timeslot; and reminds folks that he’s more conservative than people think — he’s a suburban Catholic who goes to church every Sunday, for chrissakes!

Here, Stephen Colbert takes questions from his fellow late-night hosts:

And set your calendars for next Monday: the “Strike Force Five” (Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver) will appear together on The Late Show on May 11.

I don’t know, but I feel like The Boys fans who are complaining that these final episodes are just “filler” are the same folks who were mad that Homelander is the bad guy. Like, what are you guys watching? Oh no, is there too much character development? Are relationships being explored? Is your steak too juicy and your lobster too buttery? Suggestion to Eric Kripke: reach out to Damon Lindelof; he knows a little something about fan backlash, especially in a final season.

First of all, how is The Hunting Wives eligible for this year’s Emmys? Didn’t that come out like three years ago? ~checks notes, realizes it came out less than a year ago, stares blankly at the wall while contemplating how much shit has happened between July 2025 and today, and how much it has aged me overall~ But second of all, calling it a “comedy” is an interesting choice. Good luck, you crazy kids!

Brandi Glanville can stand down: LeAnn Rimes is not joining The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Dave Chappelle needs to stop. He is not doing himself any favors here, whinging that he is somehow the victim of his own bigotry. Complaining that something was “taken out of context” is the laziest excuse available. I saw these comedy specials, and the jokes were as offensive and cruel as reported in the media.

The Russo brothers think spoiler culture has gone too far.

Hayden Panettiere wants you to know that she’s bisexual. OK.

So relieved Eugene Mirman is doing well after that terrifying car crash. 

Get well soon, Bonnie Tyler!
