I think a big part of the backlash to these ads (and let’s be clear, since this seems to be at least partially a response to the conversation between Halle and I that we posted to Splitsider yesterday, that we were talking about the ads and not the show itself, which neither of us has seen and I still hold out hope for) isn’t that the jokes...

I know this is not going to be a popular opinion, but I have to get this off my chest.
I don’t get this backlash against Whitney Cummings’ show “Whitney.”

GQ: Chris Kelly's First Day At Funny Or Die →
chriskelly:
The incredibly nice Adam Frucci of Splitsider wrote an article about my first day at Funny or Die for GQ.
To accompany this article, I tried emailing them a bunch of photos of me jumping and running while wearing a suit, dress shoes and no socks, but they opted to go with a picture of Will Ferrell instead. Which is fair.

The first idea (“move towards the complicated”) is, I think, best...

I think Stephen Hoban really nailed the tightrope walk that late night comedians have to make after a tragedy as horrible as the Tucson shootings, yet how important their roles are to our national psyche.
