Season 4 of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, the most bonkers series in television, is now available for fans to bring home on Blu-ray and DVD. DC’s Legends of Tomorrow doesn’t fit easily into one box.

Somewhere along the way, they decided this shouldn’t be…

My full review of the animated classic is forthcoming but in the meantime, here are…

Between Two Ferns: The Movie stretches out the Funny or Die series into a feature-length film while losing most of the humor in the process. Listen, it gives me no happiness to pan Between Two Ferns: The Movie. Trust me–panning this film is like a huge punch in the gut. I have nothing but the greatest respect for all those involved in the production. Between Two Ferns worked so well online because the interviews were…

The 71st Emmy Awards–honoring the best television in comedy, drama, variety, and movies–are taking place tonight on FOX, airing live 8-11 PM ET/5-8 PM PT. The Emmy’s are following in Oscar’s footsteps this year by going without a host. I’m hope this doesn’t become the future as it will put many comedians out of a job. There’s a shocker right out of the gate! An animated Homer Simpson is hosting the show…or so we thought. …

Where’s My Roy Cohn? is a documentary on the guy who served as chief aide to Joseph McCarthy as well as being a mentor to Donald Trump. Listen, I think Matt Tyrnauer is a fine filmmaker. He does a solid job at digging up interviews out of the archives and grabbing interviews for the film. But when push comes to shove, is Roy Cohn somebody that’s really worthy of a documentary let alone a biopic? …
