JOEL MCHALE

Under the steady smirk of Joel McHale, The Soup has been transformed from just another show built on easy, ironic jabs to a surprisingly effective front in the unending battle against terrible television.

Cool Comic Relief

Four funny shows of note

Summer ... is there any better season to spend entirely indoors? Well, winter, I guess. Maybe spring and fall, too. But soon they'll all be one magical season,

NO FILTER COFFEE BREAK

JOE MADAUS REDEFINEZ TEH 2-MINIT MAN

Four years ago at Boston College, Joe Madaus, my brother and four other guys shared a suite so grimy, a girl could get pregnant there while fully clothed.

LOUIS C.K.

Bill Cosby he ain't

For a long time, Louis C.K. was a comedian's comedian, meaning he was fucking brilliant and almost unknown. Now, thanks to TV and 20 years of persistent, fearlessly confessional comedy, that's changed. The Newton and Framingham-raised comic is coming home to shoot his special, Chewed Up. Warning: He's got a potty mouth.

Day #1 at Tales...

By pinklady on Fri, Jul 18, 2008 7:15 pm

Began late with a perfect Pimm's Cup and breakfast at the Napoleon House. YUMMMM...If you've never had a Pimm's Cup do yourself a favor and check this cocktail out, especially if you happen to be in the quarter, near the Napoleon House. We also sampled a Roast Beef Po' Boy, since evidently the deep fried version we had the evening before just wasn't enough for us, and a Muffaletta, which comes portioned as a whole, half, and quarter sandwich. We ordered the quarter size, and it was still as big as my head.

 


Tales Pre-party

Before dinner MiMi, Em, and I (Pink Lady) head down to the Carousel Bar for Vieux Carres and to meet up with Hanky Panky and Barbara West. The Carousel Bar spins in the center of the room, so to chat with these seated gals, we have to march slowly around the room with them. We're doing the "Carousel Crawl." It looks impossibly silly.
