'Tonight Show' Battle Proves Late Night TV Is Still A White Men's Club
6 April 2013 12:50 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Los Angeles — The role of female talk show hosts in late-night TV broadcast network history, all 50-plus years of it, can be summed up in two words: Joan Rivers. It takes just another two – Arsenio Hall – to do the same for minorities.

Jay Leno is handing off to Jimmy Fallon, with speculation tagging Seth Meyers as his likely successor. Meanwhile, David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel, Craig Ferguson and Carson Daly are sitting pretty, without the faintest drumbeat of a pair of advancing high heels to signal a threat.

Hughley) and the thing I’ve been waiting on since the end of last year—the return of “Apollo Live,” hosted by Tony Rock. Gospel fans will be glad to know that “Bobby [ Read More ]

2 April 2013 8:41 AM, PDT | ShadowAndAct | See recent ShadowAndAct news »
Update: For some reason, the episode was pulled by Alright TV, and replaced with another episode with Tony Rock. It could be that the episode with Malcolm Jamal Warner wasn't supposed to be episode 1. Here's episode 1 of the new web series Walk This Way, starring Michael K. Williams, which is one of a handful of web-programs from the newly-launched Alright TV - a faith/family-friendly YouTube channel created by Robert Johnson and Tracey E. Edmonds, in an agreement with YouTube. Walk This Way is described as an offbeat web-comedy about a pastor of a mega church who counsels his parishioners with their unusual »
