GIVE THIS GOOD BOY ALL OF THE HOT DOGS

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Bob Iger wants you to know that the whole Jimmy Kimmel/Charlie Kirk mess last year wasn’t political; they pulled him off the air for “bad taste.” Okay.

Saul Goodman’s PSA about democracy was not a one-off:

Fuck yeah, Larry.

A judge wants to know what’s going on with the tarp over the Kennedy Center building, the one covering up President Doorknob’s deep shame.

We have a peek at David Tennant in the upcoming season of Only Murders in the Building:

Robby Hoffman was SO MAD she didn’t win the Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy that she actually stormed out of the ceremony (only to have to return and present an award), and you know what? I get it. (Still, Julianne Nichols obviously deserved that Emmy.)

Some French broadcaster (a woman!) criticized a Belgian soccer player for leaving the World Cup to attend the birth of his child, saying:

“You have to realize that it’s truly a privilege to participate in a World Cup, it’s an incredible joy,” Channel L’Equipe presenter France Pierron said during an on-air appearance. “There are hundreds of footballers who would kill to be in your shoes. It might never happen again in your life.”

She added, “It’s truly a special moment, a childhood dream come true. You’re living out a childhood dream, yet you’re going to walk away from it all to attend the birth of your child — a disgusting moment, if you’ll pardon the expression, where the dad is completely useless.”

Hey, lady! You know what else is “truly a special moment”? You know what else will never happen again in one’s lifetime? THE BIRTH OF ONE’S CHILD. Sit down.

I’m rooting for these two.

I worry Jenny Mollen isn’t getting it.

Congratulations, Yolanda Hadid and Randy Kendrick!

Get well soon, Marcy Walker.

Continue to feel better, Daryl Hall!

Love is dead.
