If you think we're only living in a Motorola DROID or Sprint HTC Hero world now, think again. T-Mobile wants to remind you about the T-Mobile myTouch 3G and continues to stress the personalization, available apps, and all around fun factor of the phone through familiar celebrity faces. These commercials are fun to watch if only for the famous faces goofing off with the still lovable myTouch 3G. The...
There are comedians that I think are not funny. Yet because of certain roles or events, they are forever deemed funny. For example I don't think Eddie Murphy is funny. I think he's a good actor, and I've enjoyed his movies, but I don't find him really funny. His stand up special was pretty funny about 20 years ago, but what have you done for me lately? I do not think Robin Williams is funny. I did...
You gotta give Sarah Palin's book tour credit for one thing: It's really putting the passive-aggressive instincts of the religious right on public display. And not just because she spends much of her 432-page book blaming campaign media flacks and hairdressers, bless their cinder-black hearts, for the McCain/Palin ticket's loss in 2008. Here's Sarahcuda talking up 'Going Rogue' for the Christian Broadcasting...
As the Republicans try to spin President Obama 's bow to the Japanese Emperor, a sign of Japanese etiquette, as weak and unpatriotic, let's not forget George Bush Sr. puking on the Prime Minister back in 1992. Video clip has Dana Carvey 's SNL skit of the same incident with spot-on Chris Farley as Barbara Bush .

They’re entreated to allow their corporate sponsor on the show, and reminded the contract requires this. Wayne the character resists, but while openly displaying...
In addition to imitating white Republicans like Eddie Murphy and creating a blog that was briefly called "What Up?", RNC chairman Michael Steele also became the first major political figure to use the Wayne's World "Not!" catchphrase as a debating...
Call them "cult classics." "Guilty pleasures." "Comfort movies." We all have a mental rolodex of flicks that may not be terribly popular but, for one reason or another, they resonate in a very special way. Maybe you saw it at the right moment. Maybe you just see gold where everyone else sees feces. Whatever the [...]
.....there was PIANO BUNNY ! Although, it doesn't take a member of Peta to tell you that Piano Bunny obviously didn't want to be in the spotlight. Here's a clip from 1983 of some terrifying crazy lady, who I'm pretty sure was Dana Carvey's inspiration for the Church Lady , forcing her pet bunny to play the piano. The loontardian even shouts at the poor creature, " PLAY LIKE YOU DID YESTERDAY!...

I've been to Maine a couple of times… but have never really spent any time there. So I really have no idea about the population there, or why they would vote against same-sex marriage—but apparently these guys have a bit of a reputation . Check out this classic clip from the old Dana Carvey Show (co-starring Stephen Colbert), which explains things a bit. [ Subscribe to the comments on...
After a bunch of dummies in Maine (Buzzfeed superfan Joy Engel notwithstanding) voted against gay marriage yesterday, this clip from The Dana Carvey Show (featuring Carvey and Stephen Colbert) has been gaining popularity. Between lobsters, Stephen King, and that awesome scene from Maine-set In The Bedroom , we were really big fans of the state.
Congratulations to the National Organization For Marriage, a group dedicated to making sure a large segment of the population cannot get married, on their successful campaign to scare people in...

Kathy Fountain can barely believe it, even after she’s checked her math twice. But it has been 30 years since she first stepped into a TV newsroom. Now Fountain is weeks from leaving television news and her job at WTVT-Ch...
