O Captain! My Captain Under – Wait, What?
There are some blog posts that require very little introduction. Ladies and gentlemen, the following video requires only two words:
Captain Underpants.
That any serious movie studio would make such a film with that title and…
how soon can I purchase my tickets?
When a title is enough to make you laugh-out-loud (or “lol” for the younger readers), that’s a great first sign for any comedic story.
This Broderick Never Takes a Day Off
Local injury attorney commercials are, how do I put this…
A spectacular art form.
We’ve all seen them. Most of the time, we can’t believe that the individuals in the commercials are, well, actual attorneys. Something usually seems off about these so-called “attorneys.” And yet, the truth is they are real lawyers. Even more, they must be fairly talented at practicing law to afford the number of prime commercial spots during local news broadcasts.
Furthermore, these local attorneys typically have unique character traits that would cause any viewer to shake his or her head in disbelief. This could be a strange haircut or a bizarre personality. A common response might be, “There’s no way he’s an attorney! I don’t believe it.” Fortunately, Saturday Night Live had some fun with everyone’s favorite local commercials.
I’m legally obligated to state that you will laugh quite a bit during this sketch.
This fake commercial needs to air during real local news broadcasts.
No joke.
Life’s Big, Witty Pieces
We all love Tom Hanks.
Who doesn’t?
And we all love Colin Hanks (you see where I’m going with this) because he is, in many ways that are entirely conceivable, a younger version of Tom Hanks. Need proof? Then may I highly recommend the CBS sitcom Life in Pieces. Colin’s role on this CBS sitcom as Greg Short answers the question of whether Tom Hanks could make it on TV in 2017. By the way, that answer is a resounding YES. And if you like sitcoms with clever writing, funny actors and actresses, lots of heart and laugh-out-loud moments, then you need to watch Life in Pieces on Thursday nights.
Since today is Friday and the weekend is just about here, it seems fitting to have some fun and enjoy an interview in which the aforementioned funnyman Colin Hanks answers questions about his father Michael Keaton Tom Hanks.
The comedic apple did not fall far from the tree.
It’s probably safe to presume that the show runner for Life in Pieces likely cast Colin right away.
