Kevin Costner shared his thoughts on the Field of Dreams joke John Mulaney made at the Oscars after watching the bit "a second time."

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 …

It’s Election Day – and an extremely stressful one at that – so you may or may not be looking for distractions. To which I say, here’s a delightfully lowkey 15-minute interview between John Mulaney and Seth Meyers on Late Night with Seth Meyers that will absolutely distract you from any anxieties you may be having at the moment. Mulaney was a guest on Late Night last night, and since he and Meyers are genuinely close friends in real life, their interview ran long. Like, way long. And it also got very weird. To the point that after the …

For the fourth time, John Mulaney returned to host Saturday Night Live on Saturday, October 31. The former SNL head writer's homecoming fell on the biggest night of the month. It was more than a Halloween episode; with three days left until Election Day 2020, the show made damn sure to remind us just how important it was to go out and vote — and vote for Democratic nominee Joe Biden. With plenty of material available thanks to the timing of Saturday's episode, the cast and writers turned in one of the strongest episodes thus far in Season 46. …

For the fourth time, John Mulaney a.k.a. Mr. Sack Lunch Bunch, is coming back to the hallowed halls of Saturday Night Live to host. News of Mulaney's return to SNL broke during Saturday night's episode hosted by Adele. Mulaney will be joined by musical guest The Strokes, who will also be making their fourth appearance on SNL to promote their latest album, The New Abnormal. And speaking of The Sack Lunch Bunch, two new specials starring Mulaney are on the horizon over at Comedy Central and they could get referenced in the upcoming episode. In addition …

John Mulaney is moving his lively John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch to Comedy Central for two new specials. The first installment of the Emmy-winning actor and stand-up star's Sack Lunch Bunch debuted back in December 2019. The initial special took a very cheeky approach to the Mister Rogers formula, with Mulaney as a more offbeat mentor to a group of elementary and middle-schoolers with celebs like Richard Kind, David Byrne, and Jake Gyllenhaal appearing to help impart some unusual life lessons. [caption id="attachment_909052" align="alignright" width="355"] Image via Netflix[/caption] It's …

Late Night with Seth Meyers has been pretty strong during social distancing since Meyers is an affable host who has been inviting on people with whom he has a strong rapport. For example, his latest guest was John Mulaney, one of his friends and former co-workers on Saturday Night Live. While Mulaney technically had something to plug—his new podcast Oh, Hello: The P'dcast—really it was just two funny guys shooting the shit about what they've been up to lately. One of the things they discuss is VSCO Girls (if you've never heard the term …

Since there's currently no Saturday Night Live, how about a few stories from behind the scenes, courtesy of the cast and crew? John Mulaney is here to share just that thanks to a new video series (we hope) called SNL Stories from the Show. The very personal tale, with Mulaney's quirky brand of wit and comedic delivery, goes back more than 10 years to track his rise through the ranks. It's also an earnest sharing of his experience working in the at-times exhausting writers room of one of the world's biggest shows. The long-running …

John Mulaney hosted Saturday Night Live last night for the second time, and in a surprise to no one, his monologue was hilarious. Mulaney got his professional start as a writer on SNL, helping co-create the character of Stefon with Bill Hader among many other notable sketches, so he’s right at home on the Studio 8H stage. And in addition to that, since leaving SNL Mulaney has solidified himself as one of the best and funniest stand-ups working today. So combine the comfort onstage with the raw talent, and you get an incredibly funny stand-up monologue …

When John Mulaney does anything, we here at Collider leap to attention. He's hilarious, relatable, charming as all get-out, and focused on very specific comedic targets we didn't know we needed until we got them. So every time he comes home to host Saturday Night Live, as he's doing on February 29, we leap to double attention. And in a new promo for the episode, he's checking in on an old friend. If you didn't know, Mulaney and SNL cast member Pete Davidson are real-life friends who have at times put their friendship …

I don't really know what to make of Netflix's upcoming special John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch. And I think that's the point. In the first look at the children's musical special (let that sink in for a minute), Emmy Award-winning comedian John Mulaney held some rather tough auditions to fill out his cast. The satirical slant to that video gave us a better idea of the tone of the special, but this new trailer reveals its A-list guest stars and its adorably awkward kid cast. John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch, …

There's something about seeing comedian John Mulaney in a tight-fitting black shirt being mean to people in a 1970s retro-feeling context that really does it for me. This particular combo worked like gangbusters in the peerless Documentary Now! episode skewering the Company cast album recording. Now, it's working again in a new promo for the upcoming John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch Netflix special. John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch looks to recreate those classic TV variety specials where celebrity guests would sing, dance, do light comedy sketches, and learn lessons with a crew …

John Mulaney is an old-fashioned type of comedian. A showman, if you will. He wears a suit on stage, speaks in a transatlantic accent, and crafts his jokes with impeccable, Catskills-feeling tightness. And now, with a new variety special announced for Netflix, Mulaney is leaning in even harder to his retro sensibilities. John Mulaney & the Sack Lunch Bunch, featuring Mulaney and a bunch of cute, super-talented kids, comes to Netflix December 24, 2019 -- aka Christmas Eve. Remember "that bygone television era when children sang songs about their feelings with celebrity guests on funky outdoor sets"? Mulaney …

Apple TV+ has released its second trailer for the original series, Dickinson. This decidedly modern take on the life and times (or, the teenage/twenty-something times) of American poet Emily Dickinson stars Hailee Steinfeld (Bumblebee) as the titular lead. And Apple looks to have taken the poet’s line “Tell all the truth but tell it slant” to heart, creating a version of Dickinson’s life that deliberately feels like modern day—in both vernacular and attitude. The show has taken 2019 ideals and inserted them into mid-19th century New England, livening up the material for younger audiences …

Of the many, many reasons Sony's Oscar-winning animated feature Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is objectively The Best, the introduction of John Mulaney's Spider-Ham stands as the most delightful. If you haven't scooped up the Blu-ray yet, an extremely charming extra feature just hit the Marvel HQ Youtube page: Spider-Ham: Caught In a Ham, an animated short directed by Miguel Jiron and written by David Schulenburg that catches you up on the title porker's battle with Doctor Crawdaddy (Aaron LaPlante) right before the events of Spider-Verse. Here's the short'…

John Mulaney is one of the funniest people on the planet. I consider myself a stand-up comedy connoisseur, and Mulaney's stuff is consistently hilarious, especially all his jokes involving the Law & Order franchise. It seems like Mulaney is everywhere lately, and he kind of comes off like a big kid. I mean, the name of his 2018 special was Kid Gorgeous, after all. And now he's turning to actual kids for his next special. Don't worry, no need to call the SVU. In a new interview with Esquire, Mulaney revealed that his new special will …

John Mulaney memes are everywhere - and with good reason! These will have you rolling on the floor with laughter.

John Mulaney is best known for getting his start working as a writer on Saturday Night Live as well as his comedy specials. He has also done a variety of voice acting and other appearances, and overall is just super funny. The Internet is a big fan of his and his jokes, and some of the lines from his comedy specials are highly relatable. Whether he’s talking about being raised Catholic or going on about how people always think he’s gay, Mulaney has a quote that is bound to make you laugh.

Saturday Night Live movies based on characters from the show have been fewer and further between than in the 90s and early 2000s, but that doesn’t mean the prospect wasn’t at least discussed when it came to one of SNL’s biggest characters of the 21st century: Stefon. Bill Hader and John Mulaney created the character of Stefon as a Weekend Update correspondent who would come on the show and offer the most random and salacious “tips” of where to go in New York City. The result was hilarious, as not only would Hader routinely break thanks to …

Two wildly talented individuals will be hosting Saturday Night Live in March. NBC announced that on March 2nd, John Mulaney will return as host for the second time with musical guest Thomas Rhett. Then on March 9th, Idris Elba will take the stage with musical guest Khalid. Mulaney was a longtime writer for SNL who’s probably best known for writing all the Stefon appearances with Bill Hader on Weekend Update. After a short-lived sitcom, he’s now become one of the most popular standup comedians around, and he returned to SNL to host for the first time last …
