The coming weeks will see a great deal of digital ink devoted to the discarded material and pivots that late-night hosts faced in the wake of Tuesday’s election, and perhaps none would have been so biting as Full Frontal’s Samantha Bee. Now, Bee shows us “A Beautiful, Faraway Dream,” returning Jon Stewart and news anchors from all over to celebrate what might have been.

Comedy Central's adaptation of classic FunnyorDie sketch "Drunk History" exceeded our wildest expectation across its first season, bringing in countless celebrities both to inebriatedly narrate and star in their best recollections of world events. Now that season 2 has been set for a summer 2014 debut, Comedy Central has revealed the full roster of guest stars, including some famous face

Earlier today we caught our first look at 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' star Cobie Smulders returning to Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." as Maria Hill, though in the meantime, Coulson and his team will still have Patton Oswalt's Eric Koenig, Amy Acker's mysterious cellist, and Marvel villain Blackout to go through. Check our our first look at next week's "The Only Light in the

Only five episodes remain in all of 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.''s first season, and they're going to need every minute of them after the 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' fallout of "Turn, Turn, Turn." The team has been scattered to the wind, but could one of their own really have joined the ranks of Hydra? Find out in the opening minutes of next Tuesday's "Providence"! Read M

The latest previews from Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' proved that the 'Avengers'-adjacent series will significantly expand its ranks before the May series finale, and its latest addition is the most fan-friendly yet. Comedian and voice of the nerd pantheon Patton Oswalt himself will join the 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' in the coming weeks as Marvel comics' Agent Eric Koenig, hopefully bringing h

Months before we have the Emmys or the Golden Globes to worry about, the annual Critics’ Choice Television Awards streamed Monday night and released the full list of winners as chosen by the Broadcast Television Journalists Association. ‘The Big Bang Theory‘ expectedly dominated in its many nominations, while the race for Best Drama tied and some surprising new stars were honored.

This Thursday, stand up comedian (and one of the funniest men alive) Patton Oswalt guest stars on NBC's beloved 'Parks and Recreation' as a Pawnee, Indiana citizen who attempts to block a city council vote with a lengthy filibuster. Asked to talk at length about whatever he wanted by the producers, Oswalt decided to rant about 'Star Wars Episode 7' and the results are bizarre and glorious as he sp

The big buzz surrounding 'Parks and Recreation' this week stems from this Thursday's wedding event between Ben Wyatt (Adam Scott) and Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), somewhat strangely divided between this week and last week's "Emergency Response," but that isn't the only big Pawnee news. We've learned that recent 'Justified' and 'Portlandia' guest star Patton Oswalt will appear in a coming

Portland might be known for its weirdness, '90s-era quirk, and even entire professions devoted to putting birds on things, but with all the celebrities floating through, you'd think it'd be the next Hollywood. Regardless, IFC's 'Portlandia' has managed to obtain some impressive star power in its third season, including everyone from Fred Armisen's 'SNL' castmates, to comic everyman actor Patton Os

Well, alright then.  Comedian Patton Oswalt's TV career definitely seems to be taking off to new heights, first with a recurring stint on FX's gunslinger drama 'Justified,' and now as we've learned, another recurring gig on HBO's Aaron Sorkin drama 'The Newsroom.'  Oswalt isn't alone however, as Rosemary DeWitt has also been tasked for a recurring role, but who will the former 'United States of Ta

Well, pull us up a failure pile in a sadness bowl, Patton Oswalt is coming to 'Justified' season 4!  All year long the word has felt curiously quiet on the fourth outing for our favorite FX gunslinger Raylan Givens, other than a few recent casting snippets, so we're glad that details are finally starting to emerge.  But given the comedian's wide-range of characters on TV over the years, who might
