Here's A Thing With Tommy Wiseau In It Here is a 10-minute long episode of a web series? Or something? I don't know what this is, but I do know that Tommy Wiseau is in it. You know, for the superfans.
Important Two And A Half Men News BREAKING: Eddie Van Halen will play himself on an episode of Two and a Half Men this season. CANCEL ALL YOUR PLANS.
(Please know that this hurts me more than it hurts you.) How did he do it:
(A) He cheated
(B) He's lucky
(C) He's a genius
(D) It is written
(E) None of the above
(F) Because obviously this was a painfully easy question with all of the lifelines at his disposal, because ultimately this is about giving money to charity and making celebrities look good and getting some star power behind this ailing, unwanted show, not about actual knowledge, isn't that right, Patricia Heaton?
G) BLUNTZ
Also, LOL when:
Regis Philbin: You play trivia much?
Snoop Dogg: Yeah, yeah.
Snoop Dogg, one of the world's premiere Trivia Heads. He plays trivia MUCH. So much. It's nuts how much trivia Snoop Dogg plays. He was going to call himself Trivia Dogg, but then he didn't, but he still wishes sometimes that he did. On those dark lonely nights of the soul plane. (WOOF.) (You can't fire me, I quit!)

Look, regardless of where you fall on the Family Guy divide, whether you think that its endless, redundant, 3rd-grade pastiche of self-referential fart jokes and unclever non-sequiturs is terrible, or whether you think ahahah me like put this show in my face, there is one thing that I think we can all agree on: no one fucking cares about the politics of Family Guy. If there is one arena of the public discourse in which Family Guy need not even pretend to be competing, it is laughter politics. So will someone please tell that to Seth MacFarlane? From the Guardian UK:
American right-wing talk-show host Rush Limbaugh and former president George Bush's strategist Karl Rove are to play themselves in a forthcoming episode of Fox's animation Family Guy.In the episode being produced for next season, Brian, the liberal dog of the cartoon's central family, the Griffins, gets bored and frustrated because he feels he no longer has anything to complain about with Barack Obama in the White House, so he becomes a Republican and starts listening to Limbaugh.
Hold on. That part is fine. Family Guy can have whatever type of slime-faced thumb head it wants on there. Have them all! I don't care. But, come on, Seth MacFarlane, with this explanation:

The Videogum "Louis C.K. Promise": Parks And Recreation Great Louis news, you guys. Louis C.K. will have a story arc in season two of Parks and Recreation, playing a police officer and a potential love interest for Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler). High five.
Speaking of dancing, and moving on to genuinely bad ideas, Katie Holmes, whoever that is, appeared on So You Think You Can Dance last night and performed Judy Garland's "Get Happy." You probably missed it because you fell asleep during her pre-dance interview.
OK, so I have a question:

Sarah Palin, whoever that is, was on this week's American Chopper, because of course she was.
Why does she keep talking about how long Alaska has been a state? Is that a thing? Are Alaskans constantly reminding everyone that they've been a state for 50 years? I suppose when you are up there on the oil rig or working in the cannery or whatever, you forget that down on the mainland NO ONE CARES ABOUT THAT. And what on Earth does she mean that Paul Teutul Sr. "just has that patriotism." What he just has is a handlebar mustache and a problem relating to his children.
I know that it's 2009 and making fun of Sarah Palin's bland, empty rhetoric is like shooting a potentially retarded person in a barrel, but jeez. She's like Gay Robot but for Saying Stupid Americana Stuff. Awful.
The bullet that just grazed America, you guys. TBTJGA. (Via Buzzfeed.)

The Terminator trudged along the wooded path towards the lake, his gun dangling by his side, the taunts still ringing in his hypersensitive bionic ears. He stared at the ground as he walked, and didn't even bother scanning anything with...

Last weekend, something strange happened. Some of the Videogum Monsters created their own secret, password-protected chat room. In 2009! Incredible! I suppose every monster has his cave, or whatever. As it turned out, though, we already had a Videogum Chat...
