Last night, Jimmy Kimmel welcomed an unexpected guest on his show — so unexpected, in fact, he crashed an interview with his entrance, before ripping into the Jimmy Kimmel Live host on his very own stage. It was all good fun, though; the surprise guest was none other than former Daily Show host Jon Stewart, […]
Stand-up D.J. Demers delivers another great “Conan” set
Comedian D.J. Demers returned to Conan for his second stand-up performance last night, but this time, something was different: the Canadian comic — who won the 2014 Homegrown Comics competition at Just For Laughs in Montreal — is an American now (well, maybe not legally, but he lives here at least).

Jackie Kashian’s “Conan” set explains how comedy prepared her for marriage
Comedian Jackie Kashian stopped by Conan to deliver a stand-up set that was as hilarious as it was a very honest look at what marriage is really like.

Michael Showalter and Stephen Colbert share a sketch from their short-lived 1999 show “Random Play”
Two offbeat sketch show veterans reunited last night on The Late Show when Stella alum Michael Showalter joined host Stephen Colbert, who got his start alongside Amy Sedaris in a little show called Exit 57. They also, apparently, co-starred in a long forgotten show called Random Play together. If you haven’t seen it, don’t worry, they hadn’t either — […]

Enjoy this extended video of Will Ferrell singing The Carpenters while dressed like a cat on “Conan”
Will Ferrell has been making the rounds to promote his new movie, The House — a fun summer comedy co-starring Amy Poehler that’s in theaters now — and we can imagine it gets a little boring answering the same interview questions over and over. So, it’s no surprise that during Ferrell’s recent visit to Conan, he chose to […]

“Broad City” stars Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer held their own 4th of July hot dog eating contest
Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, stars of Comedy Central’s bff-com Broad City, posted a very patriotic edition of their web series, “Hack into Broad City,” earlier this week: a clip in which the pair put on their very own hot dog eating contest.
