No business like show business and no business

The White House Correspondents dinner, aka “the nerd prom,” may be in trouble. The New York Times reports that both Vanity Fair and The New Yorker, two Conde Nast publications, have pulled out of their annual parties. VF editor in chief Graydon Carter, no fan of Donald Trump, says he’s going fishing that weekend.

Then there’s the satirical Not the WHCD being planned by the very funny comedian Samantha Bee and sponsored by her network, which is owned by Turner Communications, part of Time Warner. When Bee announced this last week it sounded hilarious at least on paper. But it also depended on people of note coming to Washington.

Comedy is dead in the Trumpland...but who killed it? The people who hate Trump filled rage or Trump himself by being who he is?

Doesn't it seem like the entire world order of things has been turned on its head and ferociously shaken??

From SHOWBIZ411:

A lot of proper journalists have turned their noses at the dinner as inappropriate. Tom Brokaw has been very vocal about it. “I would watch on C-SPAN, and as I watched on C-SPAN, I would try to put myself, kind of, if you will, in the person of an interested citizen in Kansas City, or in Little Rock, or in Spokane, Wash., saying, ‘That’s the Washington press corps?’ I mean, there was more dignity at my daughter’s junior prom than there is [at] what I’m seeing on C-SPAN there,” he told Politico.
Of course, a lot of people point to the 2011 dinner, hosted by Seth Meyers, as the moment Trump decided to run for President. Meyers and President Obama were merciless to Trump, who did not take the ribbing well at all. Maybe this year it would be best to have a smaller, non roast dinner, with fewer celebrities and no mention of the current President.

There's no business like....well, no show business.

A great article by Tim Goodman on the Hollywood Reporter about the Trevor Noah situation

And the premise is this: Twitter is not a comedy club.. and comedy is really, really bad on Twitter.

I can’t say I disagree. This is a great point by Goodman..

Trevor Noah, New 'Daily Show' Host, Criticized for Tweets About Jews and Women

This is silly and inane. It’s comedy.. the same people offended by this would have an annuerism if they heard the Martha Stewart segment from the Justin Bieber roast… he’s a comedian not a candidate. And good comedians have always pushed the the envelope further than the particular current generation was comfortable with..

Some of the best comedy on YOUTUBE is when comedy films are re-cut into horror movie trailers. Such is the case with “CLARK” .. I love this one.

ONCE AGAIN, THE COAL SPEAKER IS AHEAD OF THE CURVE!

Are you reading my website, LES MOONVES?

I was shocked tonight to see a story making the rounds saying that Chelsea Handler is in talks to be the next host of a late night show as David Letterman plans his exit from the network—maybe not Letterman’s slot, but something.

The reason for my surprise: In March 2013 I nominated Chelsea Handler for late night! That’s right.. I voted my confidence in her to host a show and said she should be considered for Leno’s then soon to be open position instead of Jimmy Fallon.

And I cannot believe March 2013 is already beyond a year ago… 

I wrote this in 2013:

Actually.. I think it’s time for a woman to take over some air time on late night TV.. And no, not Oprah. I think the best choice for the future of late night would be Chelsea Handler. I am serious about that. She would bring a creative feeling to late night—and if she’s put into the Fallon slot, she would be able to continue her irreverent style of comedy.. 

She didn’t get Fallon’s. She may get Letterman’s.

What I wrote in 2013 still applies in ‘14.. She’s primed, she’s rested. And ready.

Is America?

Piers Morgan wasn’t.
And that’s another reason she gets my vote.

David Brenner just lost a battle with cancer.. he is dead tonight at the age of 78.

He died on a Saturday.. I think of all the Saturday nights he entertained throughout the years of his career, to half empty rooms of half drunk people to the audiences of the TONIGHT SHOW with Johnny Carson..

His humor became an inspiration for others such as Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Reiser..

He was a star of the 20th century and a trend setter for years to come..

And he never abandoned his craft.

As FOX news points out in their story tonight on his passing, 

Brenner worked steadily through 2013 doing standup. A four-day gig last December included a New Year’s Eve show at a King of Prussia, Pa., casino-resort in which he showcased young comedians.

Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis: President Barack Obama from President Barack Obama

This may one of the funniest things I have seen in a long time..

And say what you will about health care and the President, but this was pretty good advertising to use comedy and a video watched by young people to drop serious hints about health care..

Great marketing. And a few good laughs.

The changed politics of late-night 'comedy' TV--FOR THE WORST

How disappointing.. So basically, late night comedy shows have gone from lampooning politicians to a world where they will allow them to ‘soften their image’ and be even faker than they were before.

Goodbye Carson…1980-1995 Letterman.. and all the others.. Hello Jimmy Fallon. 

Good luck being everyone’s friend.

Proving that anyone is funnier with Miley Cyrus’ tongue.. here we have a series of stars proving it, including House Speaker John Boehner, celebrated star Robert Goulet, Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, and former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell. 

Rounding out the photos.. Miley Cyrus proving anyone is funnier with hog dog eating contest hands in their mouths..

Good evening.

Enjoy SNL.

Is David Letterman's time coming to an end on CBS!?

The late night wars indeed.

And you thought Korea was getting tense..

Is David Letterman's time coming to an end on CBS!?

Send in the clowns.

Governor Chris Christie appeared on SNL last night.. But his participation in the skit on the show is drawing fierce criticism.  Just wondering your thoughts?

A blast from the past! So happy I came across this little memory of the late 90s glory of LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN and the guy who had bullet proof legs..
