Paramount+ Just Added a Ton of Classic Nickelodeon Content

Paramount+ just gave children of the ‘80s and ‘90s a whole new reason to subscribe. Oh sure, the streamer has Beavis and Butt-Head, The Daily Show, all the Star Trek you can handle. But it also just added almost every single classic Nickelodeon show from when you were growing up. And, holy shit, it’s awesome.…

Drunk History Is Canceled Amid Comedy Central’s Push Toward Reboots and Adult Animation

Derek Waters and Jeremy Konner’s Drunk History has been canceled at Comedy Central after six seasons. It’s strange that the comedy-meets-history series was axed after it had already been renewed for season seven, but it looks to be a casualty of ViacomCBS’s new head Chris McCarthy’s drive for a top-to-bottom makeover of the channel—largely involving…

The Ren & Stimpy Show Is Being Rebooted, for Some Reason

In a move reflective of the network’s doubling down on the animation space, Comedy Central’s set its sights on one of the most raunchy and absurd cartoons to come out of the ‘90s. One that’s only gone on to live in infamy. Deadline reports that Comedy Central’s greenlit a revival of The Ren & Stimpy…

Settle Down Beavis, and Come to Butt-Head: The Iconic ’90s Animated Series Is Making a Return

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from Mike Judge’s head-banging, couch-dwelling masters of snark, but the animated teens of Beavis and Butt-Head—one of MTV’s biggest hits of the 1990s that spawned a 1996 feature film which was also a huge hit—are returning to the airwaves thanks to Comedy Central. As the New York Times…

Comedy Central Is Picking Up Jodie, a Daria Spinoff Series

The cynical, wry world of Daria is continuing on television, though not on MTV.

Key & Peele’s YouTube Did Something Special for the Release of Us

Before Jordan Peele was one of the best horror directors in the business, he was one half of the comedy duo Key & Peele, whose sketch show ran for five seasons from 2012 to 2015. Hopefully you know this already. But if you don’t, the show’s YouTube is ready to introduce you to one of…

Drunk History Resurrected the Tale of How Mary Shelley Brought Frankenstein to Life

Submitted for the approval of the Midnight Society: Drunk History tells the true story of how an opium-fueled sex party inspired not one—but two—of history’s greatest fictional monsters. Comedy Central’s Drunk History opened its latest season with an entire episode dedicated to the story of how Mary Shelley (played by Westworld’s Evan Rachel Wood) came…

Drunk History‘s Take on the Legacy of Star Trek‘s Nichelle Nichols Is a Booze-Fueled Delight

Nichelle Nichols’ time as Lieutenant Uhura on Star Trek is iconic—but at this point, so is the story of how she nearly quit the series after a season. So much so, that Drunk History’s retelling of the moment Nichols met Martin Luther King Jr. manages to cover the whole thing pretty hilariously. The segment, narrated…

That Viral Video of a Girl Calling Donald Trump a Disgrace is Totally Fake

Have you seen that video of a young girl telling President Trump that he’s “a disgrace to the world”? It’s a satisfying clip for those who believe the president needs to be called out to his face. But the video is completely fake. The clip went viral on Twitter yesterday, with countless people believing it…

Futurama‘s Bender Reads Chuck Tingle Porn, Shiny Metal Asses Likely Get Bitten

Bender, the lovable rascal from Futurama, was never shy when it came to adult-only content. He loved going to robot strip clubs, had a string of girlfriends (including a ship), and was even arrested for pimping. But Bender Bending Rodriguez never took off someone’s pants and admired the length of their dick. Until now, thanks…

Comedy Central Adds Blue Alien to Late-Night with The Gorburger Show

The latest comedy icon to join late-night isn’t Jessica Williams or Desus & Mero, it’s the freakish offspring of a Labyrinth creature and Sully from Monsters Inc. Comedy Central announced at this year’s TCA that it’s picked up Funny or Die’s The Gorburger Show for an eight-episode season. The Gorburger Show is a web series…

Time Traveling Bong Is the Science Fiction Stoner Comedy We’ve Been Waiting For

Duuuuuude. I know we’re all fired up about the Rogue One trailer today, but take a moment to watch the trailer for Time Traveling Bong, too—Comedy Central’s new pot-fueled science fiction special from Broad City’s Paul Downs and Ilana Glazer. It airs on 4/20 (obviously), and it looks hilariously insane. Here’s the official synopsis, via…

Happy Wednesday, Key and Peele Is Back in Our Lives

Good news for fans of sketch comedy and laughing: Key and Peele comes back for its fourth season tonight, and the first episode is stellar. Key and Peele was always good, but the third season was especially smart and silly, and if this season is as strong as its opening episode, we’re gonna have a…

I Prefer Watching These Heavily Slurred Versions of American History

Drunk History is in many ways the best show on television at the moment. You get the LOLs of absurdist sketch comedy while arming yourself with enough History Channel-quality Fun Facts™ to make you sound smart the next day. At the same time, it feels like hosting a party in your living room—one that inevitably…

Comedy Central’s new iOS app will allow you to watch full episodes of their popular shows the day after they air. The most recent episode will be available to everyone, but you’ll need to prove a TV subscription to go deeper into a series.

Futurama‘s seventh season may ret-con the series’ saddest moment

There’s a hell of a lot for Futurama fans to get excited about in this three-minute premiere of the second half of the seventh season, debuting this summer on Comedy Central — a planet of apes, a Thing parody, tentacle-monster Leela, a war with a Cobra-esque evil organization, some mild robo-Satanism — but nothing, and…
