Culture Buzz Aspen and Wendy are effete straight dudes (from new and old money, respectively) livin' the life of the young, rich, and atrocious in L.A. Wait for the scene at the club to understand why *some* of us prefer quiet nights at home. Ahem.
Nothing spells drama like go karts and Italian stereotypes! We love the idea, but we'll wait patiently until Dame Judi Dench scores a cameo as Diddy Kong.
A filthy, bizarre, and ultimately hilarious setup in which the Murder, She Wrote star serves as the go-to Private Dick regarding matters of …well, the dick. Angela Lansbury looking like an Asian burn victim with a mustache? Aw, come on, you guys, this is too weird for its own good. (That being said, when do we get the second episode???)
Culture Buzz Doctor J. Marcus treats his patients with common sense, ruling out the use of “fancy beeping machines” and all that nonsense. Ginger ale and saltines: the eternal solution to ailments and Diabetes.
Food Buzz When water's too bland and soda's too sweet, there's always butter water, which is like a milkshake made from heart attacks. Incidentally, this is what Paula Deen refers to when she says to “just add water.”
TV Buzz “Motherlovers” may, indeed, have been the best part of this weekend's SNL, but we think the commercial spoof about Moms mispronouncing the names of celebrities comes in a close second. And now that Mom's finally coming around to Twitter, wait 'til she gets a load of Kashi Thatcher's tweets!
TV Buzz If Tilda Swinton, Pete Sampras, and dragon with a plunger for a hat performed late-night sketch comedy together, this would be its opening. If we may suggest our own offbeat cast member choices: Mario Batali! Sally Jesse Raphael! Marla Gibbs! The youngest brother from Malcolm in the Middle! Victoria Jackson! Viagra!
Culture Buzz Absurdist sketch comedy that approaches the sublime. This is both the funniest and the most fucked-up thing you'll see this week. Enjoy.

Kristen Wiig is arguably SNL’s new Will Ferrell: an “everywoman” with enough versatility to effortlessly turn nuanced characters into fan favorites. Here are ten examples of Kristen at her finest. We applaud the choices, although the list forgets one crucial sketch: Virgania Horsen’s Hot Air Balloon Rides.
Celebrity Buzz Mark Wahlberg is not a fan of the recent SNL sketch, in which Andy Samberg - as Wahlberg - emotes to barnyard animals. Wahlberg bemoaned the show’s having “not been funny for a long time,” especially in comparison to the days of “Eddie Murphy…and Joe Piscopo and Bill Murray.” Hey Mark, if you like Piscopo so much, why don’t you hire him for your next bar mitzvah?
TV Buzz HBO is hoping to do with British import Little Britain what it did with New Zealand’s Flight of the Conchords: make the weird, niche-y smash in its native homeland a stateside success. You know a character-driven sketch show is on HBO when it includes two ‘roid-happy, totally-not-gay gym buddies with eensy weensy pencil d*cks.
The Apple Sisters, a 1940’s-era musical sketch group based in New York, love them some corn! (Because it tastes like candy!) One thing I can now cross off my bucket list: seeing a trio of young ladies showering each other in niblets.
Culture Buzz Their sketch show on the BBC, That Mitchell And Webb Look, have earned them hardcore fans on both sides of the pond. Monty Python has found a welcome replacement in the cleverly absurd blokes who, incidentally, also star in the UK version of the Mac-vs.-PC ads. Bloody brilliant! (Also be sure to check out Peep Show, another Mitchell and Webb show we highly recommend.)
Culture Buzz The Kids in the Hall reunited for a nationwide tour beginning April 17th, featuring all new material. Here’s a reunion that we can actually get behind. Well, besides the NKOTB one, of course. It keeps getting easier and easier to relive our teenager years.
