Last night, YouTube kicked off its Comedy Week with a 'Big Live Comedy Show' starring dozens of funny people from both new and traditional media. Promos used the tagline "this better be funny" to promote the event. Unfortunately, the kickoff show very clearly wasn't. Here are six reasons why what should've been a slam dunk ended up as an airball: The mix of new and traditional media didn't work. During the pre-show, hosts Jenny Slate and Kassem G invited the legendary Norm Macdonald to join them. The former SNL cast member proceeded to sarcastically run through a list of online creators he had clearly never heard of. When Slate called him "one of the best", he quipped "well, I'm no Harley Morenstein." And yet, when Morenstein appeared later in the show (alongside the spectacularly unfunny Jeff Ross), he was treated like YouTube royalty.Throughout the show, traditional media stars joked »

Saturday Night Live might need to find a new Devil for next season.
After Saturday Night Live’s finale publicly bid farewell to both Bill Hader and Fred Armisen, some fans thought that meant Jason Sudeikis would in fact be returning. But according to a since-deleted tweet from cast member Jay Pharoah, that might not be the case. “Hader, Armisen & Sudekis the talent of those three and just them as people in general will be missed but we will be strong and carry on..” Pharoah wrote yesterday (captured by Splitsider) before deleting the message.

This past Saturday, New York’s hottest club was clearly Some Church in Midtown — where frequent Weekend Update guest Stefon was set to wed Anderson Cooper (or wait, was that Tranderson Cooper?) before the ceremony was crashed by a love-struck Seth Meyers.
As you watched Seth and Stefon fight their way out of the church, you may have noticed a few quasi-familiar faces. That’s because every guest on Stefon’s side of the aisle — as well as the minister — was a person or creature mentioned during one of the club kid’s 15 previous Weekend Update visits. Here’s a »

The Lonely Island released their newest video from their upcoming release "The Wack Album" on Monday as a part of YouTube's Comedy Week, and in the video, "Diaper Money," they praise adulthood and all its perks -- namely raising children, a monogamous relationship and choosing a cemetery plot (with minimal grammatical errors).
As this is the Lonely Island, so we don't need to tell you that the lyrics are very Nsfw. Their first post-"SNL" album comes out June 7, and the comedy/rap trio have released two preview songs so far. The video for the first, "Spring Break Anthem," features cameos from Zach Galifianakis, Edward Norton and James Franco, and the less said about the second song, the better. »

It’s been suspected for a little while now that Kanye West’s new record would come out June 18, but the rapper finally confirmed that speculation this weekend in the wake of his performance on Saturday Night Live. Yeezus (Get it?) is available for iTunes pre-order now, boasting the above album art of what appears to be a melted gold statue or icon. There’s no tracklist or anything yet, but it’s probably safe to go ahead and assume that the two incredibly intense songs West performed on Saturday Night Live, “New Slaves” and “Black Skinhead,” made the »

Good morning! Thanks to Heather Hogan for Brewing while I was out last week.
I love Gabrielle Union so hard. She's played a lesbian in Running with Scissors and I'm waiting patiently for her to do it again. In the meantime, she is talking about her crushes on anchorwomen:
Soledad O’Brien! But I’ve been obsessed with her for years. The “Black in America” series, they take up a lot of space in my DVR, and I refuse to erase them. If you come over my house you’re gonna watch some part of “Black in America.” I will make sure the conversation is steered toward something that gives me a reason to watch “Black in America.” She has a rare combination of being painfully genuine and honest and delivering information in a way that you believe her »

There's a montage in "The Hangover Part III" -- a retrospective, if you will -- of the Wolfpack "through the years." While watching images from all three "Hangover" movies flash across the screen, it's hard not to think about Bradley Cooper's own journey since the first film debuted in 2009. In four short years, Cooper has transformed himself from wiseacre Phil Wenneck to an Academy Award-nominated actor -- a transformation so thorough, it's actually a little odd watching him play Wenneck again.
Cooper called after a long day of press events (that were held in Las Vegas, so your guess is as good as mine as to the amount of sleep he was running on). He discussed the end of the "Hangover" series, his relationship with David O. Russell, and the reasons behind his abrupt departure from the troubled Western "Jane Got a Gun." Cooper also talked about a recent meeting with Sean Penn (yes, »

The pregnant Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, who is due with her first child this summer, revealed her growing belly in a tight black minidress.
Kim Kardashian’s Baby Bump — Shows Off Pregnancy Curves
The dress was not only fitted around her giant baby bump, but also short enough to show off her toned legs. Kim kept her stems covered in sheer stockings, but accentuated her leg muscles with another pair of black pointy-toe pumps.

Did Ben Affleck‘s celebrity friends show up for his induction into SNL’s Five Timers’ Club? How did Alexander Skarsgard just make himself even hotter? All this, plus some in depth spoiler-filled discussion about Star Trek spoilers with Damon Lindelof, in today’s First Dibs.
Sources are buzzing that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart broke up this weekend. Of course, this isn’t the first time they’ve been separated, and those same sources are suggesting that the break up might be more of a break for the two young stars. So, chin up, everybody. It’s probably going to be okay. [People.com] Poor Ben Affleck. Not only was his SNL hosting gig this weekend overshadowed by the departures of Bill Hader and Fred Armisen, but he got next to little fanfare over his induction to the Five Timers’ Club. Instead of garnering cameos from Steve Martin or Tom Hanks, »

Pilot season was good for the major studios, which emerged from upfront week with orders for 50 new scripted comedy and drama series, up by more than 20% from last year.
Production of new scripted primetime programming for the Big Four and CW is more concentrated than ever before among six suppliers: Warner Bros. TV, 20th Century Fox TV, CBS TV Studios, ABC Studios, Universal TV and Sony Pictures TV.
Execs report a burst of last-minute wrangling this year over network efforts to force their way into co-production pacts as a condition of series greenlights. CBS and NBC in particular were said to be more heavy-handed in negotiations this time around than in the recent past.
But generally speaking, the mood was upbeat after the parade of schedule presentations. The five nets ordered 22 new comedies, up from 16 last year, and 28 drama series, up from 22.

Washington, May 20: Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner appeared together on the season finale of 'Saturday Night Live' to prove that their marriage is not on the rocks.
The 40-year-old actor/director addressed his Oscars acceptance speech, in which he called his marriage to Garner "work."
He noted that in many people took that word to mean "manual labor."
Affleck said but that was not it, as people define what is important to them by what they dedicate their time to.
He then invited Garner - his wife for more than seven years to join him onstage - who explained that "work" is a word they use when they talk privately. »

Ben Affleck hosted last night's season finale of Saturday Night Live, and jumped right into ribbing "Argo" as well as his Oscar acceptance speech. This is the fifth time that Affleck has hosted SNL, but after a flashy celebration of Justin Timberlake's fifth time hosting, no one made a fuss about welcoming Affleck into that club. Affleck did well feigning disappointment and resisted mentioning "Argo" until almost two full minutes into his monologue. After famously saying that marriage is work in his Oscar acceptance speech, he brought his wife, Jennifer Garner, to dispel naysayers who criticized his characterization of their relationship. They were adorable together. Picking through similar material, one of the best sketches of a relatively mediocre night involved a send-up of "Argo." One of several departing SNL regulars, Fred Armisen played Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who wanted to set the record straight about Iran's role in the plot. »
