Season 4 is officially underway, and we're kicking things off with COMEDIES—starting with the gloriously unhinged cult classic MacGruber. In this episode, we dive headfirst into the over-the-top action parody that somehow turns explosions, celery, and bad decisions into comedy gold. We talk Will Forte's fearless commitment, the movie's absurd humor, why it bombed before becoming a fan favorite, and how MacGruber sets the tone for a season dedicated to laughs.We also zoom out and talk about comedies today—how the genre has changed, what's missing, what's working… and ask the big question: are comedies dead? Or just evolving?If you love dumb humor done brilliantly—or just really hate Cunth—this one's for you.Got thoughts, favorite quotes, or comedy picks you want us to cover this season?

This is PBS Hour. And this one's for the ones who got the joke. PBS Hour is here, and it's British brilliance at its best. From the camp chaos of Are You Being Served? to the quietly radical heart of The Vicar of Dibley, to the tender, grown-up romance of As Time Goes By.This episode celebrates comedy that evolved and still lands, proving humor doesn't have to shout to make an impact w wit. warmth, and characters who feel like old friends.#PBSHour #BritishTV
Ped & Burk are back together post holidays for an episode that brought us anxiety because of the prep of the Meat, Mm! But first, Adam wants people to stop making their parents drive to them for the holidays, and also might lose his marbles if people can't be better clappers.

We each list our top 10 comedy movies of all-time in what was a painstaking process! We end with some classic jingles from the 90s. Hut Hut! Love y'all.
We dive into our favorite holiday movies and the memories tied to them.

Friday means 5-Star Movie Reviews, and Andy Peth doesn't pull any punches. Joined by co-hosts Luke and Ashley, Andy dives deep into two very different films—asking the question every moviegoer wants answered: Is this worth my time? Andy opens with Marty Supreme, a performance-driven drama anchored by Timothée Chalamet. While Andy praises Chalamet's acting as elite—possibly among the year's best—he calls the film exhausting, overly long, and emotionally draining. His verdict? 2.5 stars overall, with a strong performance buried inside a movie many viewers may find frustrating or boring. Is great acting enough if you don't enjoy the story? Next up is Anaconda, a comedic adventure starring Paul Rudd and Jack Black. Andy appreciates the cast, the shorter runtime, and a handful of funny moments—but says the script, humor, and pacing fall short. His final score: 1.5 stars for quality, calling it watchable but forgettable. Which movie divides audiences the most? Which one sounds like a total miss—or a guilty curiosity? Andy breaks it down so you don't waste your movie night. Marty Supreme - Review begins at 17:39 * ⭐ Quality: ⭐⭐½ (Andy's personal take: ⭐½) *

This week on The Video Store Podcast I am recommending four films that sit in an interesting stretch of Arnold Schwarzenegger's career, when their action persona took a left turn into broad studio comedy. These are all wide release films that played constantly on cable and sat on the front wall of the video store for years. They did well in theaters, but they almost felt built to be rented, watched with other people in the room, and talked about afterward. None of them are obscure, but seeing them together makes the choices clearer and more deliberate.Twins from 1988 was the real pivot point. Ivan Reitman directed, pairing Arnold Schwarzenegger with Danny DeVito, which on paper felt like a gag and ended up working better than expected. It was one of the first times Schwarzenegger played openly against his screen image instead of reinforcing it. The film was also a financial gamble that paid off. Rather than taking a traditional salary, the main players took a share of the profits, which turned into one of the most lucrative deals of the era. It also helped normalize the idea that Schwarzenegger could carry a comedy without winking at the audience the whole time.Kindergarten Cop followed in 1990 and again teamed Schwarzenegger with Reitman. This one leans harder into contrast, placing a very rigid screen presence into a setting that refuses to bend to it. The child actors are doing a lot of the real work here, and the movie wisely lets them. It was shot largely in Oregon (Goonies country!), which gives it a look that stands apart from a lot of studio comedies of the period. Just his second comedy leading role and the formula is obvious, but it still had enough care put into it to feel earned rather than lazy.Junior arrived in 1994 and is probably the strangest entry in this group. It brings back Reitman, DeVito, and adds Emma Thompson, who plays it straight in a way that grounds the movie more than it probably deserves. This was one of the last times Schwarzenegger leaned fully into this specific style of high concept studio comedy. The visual effects were handled with restraint, and the film relies more on performance than spectacle, which makes it feel smaller and more controlled than its premise suggests.Jingle All the Way from 1996 closes things out and feels very much of its moment. Directed by Brian Levant, it leans into consumer anxiety, holiday chaos, and the late nineteen nineties obsession with must-have toys. Sinbad is a big part of why the movie works at all, pushing against Schwarzenegger in a way that keeps the energy up. It was not especially well reviewed at the time, but it has stuck around in a way many similar holiday comedies did not. It also marks the end of this particular run, before audience tastes and Schwarzenegger's career both shifted again.Taken together, these four movies show a very specific window when studios were comfortable reshaping a major star's image and audiences went along with it. They were reliable rentals, easy recommendations, and the kind of movies that people discovered out of order on VHS or on cable.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Judd Apatow is a filmmaker, producer, comedian, and writer. The movies that shaped so many of us were unapologetically funny and often pushed boundaries.

Nicht nur Blondinen- oder Ostfriesenwitze funktionieren durch Stereotype, sie gehen auf Kosten einer Gruppe bestimmter Menschen. Während das scheinbar vor 20 oder 30 Jahren niemanden störte, werden heute Witze, Satire und Humor sehr schnell sehr kritisch betrachtet. Haben wir heute weniger zu lachen, ist es nicht mehr ok, sich über andere lustig zu machen? Wer entscheidet, was beleidigend oder diskriminierend ist? Kann und muss Humor überhaupt neutral sein? Wie gehen Comedians mit der sensibleren öffentlichen Betrachtung um? Diesen Fragen gehen wir nach im Gespräch mit dem Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaftler Uwe Wirth, mit der Kabarettistin und Autorin Teresa Reichl, mit dem Physiker und Kabarettisten Vince Ebert und der Leiterin der Caricatura Kassel Saskia Wagner. Podcast-Tipp: WDR 5 Satire Deluxe Axel Naumer und Henning Bornemann bieten dem Wahnsinn der Woche die Stirn. Mit bissigem Humor kommentieren sie die lustigsten und skurrilsten O-Töne der Polit-Prominenz. Dazu serviert das Deluxe-Team satirische Sketche und Comedies. Zu Gast sind Stars und Newcomer aus Kabarett und Comedy. Der perfekte Podcast gegen Nachrichten-Frust - ein Hörerlebnis Deluxe. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/wdr-5-satire-deluxe/urn:ard:show:b4ca0b835f537610/
Nicht nur Blondinen- oder Ostfriesenwitze funktionieren durch Stereotype, sie gehen auf Kosten einer Gruppe bestimmter Menschen. Während das scheinbar vor 20 oder 30 Jahren niemanden störte, werden heute Witze, Satire und Humor sehr schnell sehr kritisch betrachtet.

This week we're talking about everyone's favorite, charismatic young politician from Queens…Garrett Modi? It's a brand new TVPL covering Sunnyside!

In this episode of the Mo News Podcast, producer Sari Soffer Sukenik sits down with Sophie Gilbert, staff writer at The Atlantic and author of her new book, Girl on Girl: How Pop Culture Turned a Generation of Women Against Themselves. Sophie reflects on the pop culture of the '90s and 2000s — the rom-com boom, the teen sex comedies, the rise of the “cool girl,” and the commercialization of “girl power” — and how these cultural touchstones shaped millennial women's self-image, relationships, and ambitions. The conversation ranges from Spice Girls to American Pie, from rom-com nostalgia to the cultural legacy of #MeToo, and from Janet Jackson's Superbowl wardrobe malfunction to Instagram's double-edged impact. Sophie argues for a more mindful relationship with the media we consume—and what it means to raise the next generation with awareness of how culture shapes us all.
