This is it! My last Gawker dance. And, in the immortal words of Denise Huxtable, I.. I... I don't know what to say. So I'll leave the goodbyes up to an old friend, dearest socialite Tinsley Mortimer, my original muse. More » -

AARP Town Hall Models Set After Other Trusted Debate Program
Doesn't the set at left, used for a retired person "Town Hall"-style meeting, look a bit like the set for the exhaustively sleazy Jerry Springer Show? Old people watch a lot of TV, so it was probably a comfort. More » -

The Fox & Friends Gang Takes a Stand: I'm With Stupid
Oh goodness. I'd hoped for a good clip to end my Fox & Friends "coverage", and the video team has delivered. Today the pompadoured earwigs were discussing America-hating Bill Maher. Why doesn't he leave and go to France? More » -

So this clip has been passed around a bit, but it's still worth mentioning. It's the minutes from a Santa Cruz City Council meeting and... *faceplant.* Everyone's crazy. The saddest/funniest thing? Some poor bastard actually had to summarize this insanity. More » -

The Hilarious Side of Stuffy British Politics
In the Loop, Armando Iannucci's new political satire, is getting near across-the-board raves. It's funny and British! What's also funny and British (maybe funnier and Britisher?) is the series on which it's based, The Thick of It. The first episode: More » -

Today The Wrap henpecks at the troubled Universal, citing flagging box office returns and office infighting. But the most interesting tidbit is that the studio tried to cut 30 minutes off of Judd Apatow's two-and-a-half-hour Funny People, but failed. Why?
