If there is a word that we would use more than any other to describe the ratings landscape from Sunday night’s new episode, it would be “boring.” Then again, this is the same word that we would use for the most part to describe the entire landscape the past few weeks on the night. The […]
Tonight, the spotlight was on Larry Wilmore in a big way during the White House Correspondents Dinner. He had the challenge of following up President Barack Obama, who has a history of being very funny during the event. The one thing that we’ll have to say for Wilmore is that he really went in hard, […]

We’re a glutton for punishment, and maybe for that reason we love watching the White House Correspondents Dinner year after year. For us, there is just something so funny and odd about watching some of these people in the news media squirm while someone makes fun of them. It’s also really hard to even figure […]
