CELEBRITY BUZZ: A longtime beloved “alternative” comic, Galifianakis might finally earn deserved notoriety with upcoming high-profile projects, including the much-buzzed-about HBO series Bored To Death If Sarah Silverman, Patton Oswalt, and Flight Of The Conchords can find mainstream audiences, it’s about time Zach got his due. And any chance to knock Carlos Mencia off the cultural radar is worth it.

MOVIE BUZZ: Starring Zach Galifianakis in the strangest trailer of the year. I have no idea what this movie is really about, but it’s worth noting for two reasons. 1) Zach Galifianakis. 2) It outdoes those bizarre homemade Mike Gravel ads in terms of surreality.

CULTURE BUZZ: Absolut commissioned comedians Zach Galifianakis and Tim and Eric to create ads however they saw fit. The two-part result is a delightfully twisted take on friendship that surely left the suits baffled. But at the end of the day, what drives the craving for a dirty martini more than men with bouffants and misshapen genitals?
