Emily Blunt offers some insight into presenting at the Oscars with Ryan Gosling for hilarious Barbie vs. Oppenheimer banter.

Avatar's James Cameron admits Ryan Gosling's viral Saturday Night Live sketch "Papyrus" created a "dilemma" for The Way Of Water.

A select few actors got their start doing standup and/or comedy before making the leap to acting.

James Cameron is in on the joke of SNL's famous Avatar font sketch.

Queen Elizabeth's appearance opposite Daniel Craig at the 2012 Olympics was mostly her own doing.

This will sound like a bit but it’s not: John Mulaney, one of the most famous and talented stand-up comedians working right now, has joined Late Night with Seth Meyers as a staff writer. The news was announced last night by Late Night EP Mike Shoemaker and was confirmed by NBCUniversal, as Mulaney appeared on the show last night to talk to Seth about the role ghosts played in the recent presidential election. The news isn’t actually all that surprising. Mulaney and Meyers worked together closely for years at SNL where Meyers was head writer and Mulaney …

Finally, an announcement even more awaited than the Snyder Cut — it was revealed this Tuesday that Senator Kamala Harris would become former Vice President Joe Biden's running mate in this year's Presidential election, making a whole lot of history as the first Black (and South Asian) woman to run for the country's second-highest office on a major party's ticket. One of the least important yet still fun aspects of this announcement is the fact that in the world of comedy, it means more work for Maya Rudolph in the very-not-too-distant future. The …

Saturday Night Live's longtime Weekend Update host Michael Che is set to star in an untitled sketch comedy series for HBO Max, the streamer announced Tuesday. Each episode will follow a theme or incident, (police brutality, unemployment, falling in love, etc.), and use sketches and vignettes to illustrate what it feels like to experience this from a black vantage point. It’s less about being “right,” and more about being honest, even at the risk of being controversial -- something Che has never shied away from in the past. Che's six-episode series will be produced by Universal TV …

Sherman's Showcase is a hard show to explain but a very easy one to fall in love with. The creators of one of the smartest sketch comedy series being made today have "35 to 40 years" of comedy experience between them, but writers Diallo Riddle and Bashir Salahuddin still get surprised by reality. Their IFC sketch comedy series features a conceit that lets them experiment with all sorts of genres, as the series is framed around a fictional long-running TV show hosted by the titular Sherman (Salahuddin). While the show is reminiscent of Soul Train and other variety …

During the third at-home episode of Saturday Night Live, cast MVP Kate McKinnon appeared in a sketch spoofing 2019's The Lighthouse starring Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson. From McKinnon's beard to the black-and-white aesthetic to the absurdly delightful details, everything about this sketch is incredible and easily the best of the Season 45 finale episode. [caption id="attachment_889300" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via A24[/caption] Standing in for Dafoe's Lighthouse character is McKinnon's version, Phineas Gale, in a sketch titled "Lighthouse Keeper." Sporting a heck of a (fake) beard and a fisherman'…

Saturday Night Live's at-home episode had everything: sketches about Zoom company calls going terribly awry, a peek at Ruth Bader Ginsberg's workout routine, a Masterclass parody featuring Chloe Fineman's incredible Timothée Chalamet impression, Aidy Bryant attempting (key word here) some calming visualizations, Mikey Day as a Twitch streamer who can't keep up, and much more. Yes, Saturday night's special, first-ever at-home episode was an interesting experiment for the long-running sketch comedy series. As is often the case with SNL, not every sketch was a total success but it did have …

If you feel like you’re going a little stir-crazy under quarantine, you’re not alone. These really are the longest days of our lives, which is no doubt what inspired Will Ferrell, Kristen Wiig, and Jimmy Fallon to put together a full-on daytime soap spoof called “The Longest Days of Our Lives” on The Tonight Show. It’s incredibly silly and heavy on wordplay, and more than a little bit of a ripoff of the SNL sketch “The Californians,” but it’s a delight all the same. In the sketch video, the trio of comedy performers are …

On Tuesday, Netflix released a trailer for The Iliza Shlesinger Sketch Show, which stars on of the streaming giant's go-to comedy stars, Iliza Shlesinger. Netflix is no stranger to sketch shows, have found recent success with Tim Robinson's I Think You Should Leave and Astronomy Club: The Sketch Show as it expands its comedy offerings. [caption id="attachment_883548" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via Netflix[/caption] Now, it's Shlesinger's turn to take a crack at stepping into the shoes of a color bunch of characters in this six-episode sketch series (say that five times …

John Mulaney returned to host SNL for a third time this past weekend, and in addition to delivering a hilarious monologue, he has now made it three-for-three in terms of crafting epic musical sketches. The first was 2018’s Diner Lobster, a sketch Mulaney had worked on during his tenure as a writer at SNL but never made it to air. The premise found a diner going full Les Miserables after a patron orders lobster off the menu, with Kenan Thompson portraying said lobster. The second Mulaney musical sketch was the aptly named Bodega Bathroom from his second …

Gremlins 2 is one of the most unique sequels of all time and this classic Key & Peele sketch about its creation might just be their funniest.

The Lonely Island trio of Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, and Akiva Schaffer are no strangers to the feature film world. Samberg’s appeared in a number of films, Taccone directed the comedic masterpiece MacGruber, and Schaffer helmed Hot Rod and The Watch. But while Hot Rod had the involvement of all three Lonely Island members, it was a project that already existed by the time they signed on, so it took until Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping to get a fully fledged, 100% Lonely Island movie. So in the wake of that under-seen gem, as well as their major …

Key And Peele featured lots of classic sketches during its run but the hilarious "Consequences" could be the show's most underrated.

Adam Driver returned to Saturday Night Live last night to serve as host for the third time — and that wasn't the only role the Oscar-nominated actor reprised during the show. During his episode, Driver returned to the world of Undercover Boss as his Star Wars sequel trilogy character, Kylo Ren. [caption id="attachment_869454" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via NBC[/caption] It's been five years since Driver played Kylo Ren in an SNL "Undercover Boss" sketch. Previously, Driver's Kylo posed as Matt, a technician on Starkiller Base. In the latest edition of the sketch, framed as …

Following 2016's viral sketch, Adam Driver reprised the role of Kylo Ren for another "Undercover Boss" sketch in last night's Saturday Night Live.

Portlandia ran for eight seasons and featured some of the funniest sketches in all of television during that time. These are the most hilarious.
