"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

The Smithsonian guy's doubletake reaction had me laughing even harder than the joke itself.

Yeah, that too, especially since it fell just about half a beat after my recognition of what Colbert had just said.

His incredibly tasteless yet hilarious joke when looking at Lincoln's hat was almost as good.

The Smithsonian guy's doubletake reaction had me laughing even harder than the joke itself.

That really was priceless.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Variety say ABC have terminated Bill Callahan's deal. He's the co-exec prod on Scrubs.

This bit is purely what I've heard - apparently the last filmed episode (which airs in feb) will be pinned as the series finale. Although it was never written as one as far as I know. So that's going out with a wimper.

They've also cut Larry Charles (Curb Your Enthusiasm).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ouch. That really sucks for Scrubs fans.

Wait, Scrubs is NBC. What does ABC have to do with Bill Callahan? Is this a FOX/20th Century Fox thing?

Scrubs is produced by ABC, even though it's shown on NBC.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

HIMYM just made me hyperventilate and then choke

shotgun!

but it really bugs me how AH has red hair in the titles. It's like how Mike episodes of MST3K have Joel on the cover.

I'm watching Coupling, and the premise is there's a beautiful woman that's talking to Jeff, but she only speaks hebrew. I'm halfway tempted to tape if for Nilly to translate.

Keep watching, it gets funnier for the second half.

I'm laughing right now, remembering.
