Month: March 2022

The Nintendo Switch released five years ago and it became clear right away that Nintendo had another hit on its hands. While Sony and Microsoft do everything they can to push the technology of video games to its breaking point, Nintendo continues to carve out a strong niche as an alternative option. The Switch is nowhere close to the most powerful console on the market, but the ability to play its games on a TV or on the go in handheld mode is a unique feature that fans love.

Of course, it helps that the Switch has a really strong library of exclusive games. If there is one advantage that Nintendo will always have over its competitors, it’s a history of great IPs. Two of the most obvious ones are Mario and Zelda — if someone wanted, they could exclusively play nothing but Mario and Zelda games on the Switch and get lost in two of the best series in gaming. Despite that, we wanted to find five incredible games on the Switch that don’t feature Mario or Zelda in any way that are exclusive to the console.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Maybe the most important game of 2020, Animal Crossing: New Horizons came at the perfect time for so many people. As the world locked itself inside amid the coronavirus pandemic, people found escape in the world of Animal Crossing. This happy little island asks nothing of the player other than to spend their day however they choose. Want to go pick some fruit, shop at the clothing store, and then spend your evening fishing? Do it. Want to explore uncharted islands, collect resources, and sell them so you can buy an even bigger house? Go right ahead.

New Horizons is one of the best games on the Switch, not only because of the timing of its release, but because it is the perfect game to make use of the Switch’s ability to be played on the TV or in handheld mode. It’s a great game to experience on either setting and it’s fun to bring a Switch over to a friend’s house and explore each other’s islands. Even better, the game has received numerous updates since launch giving a constant reason to come back and keep playing. It’s a delightful game and one that is a must have in every Switch owner’s library.

Metroid Dread

The first new 2D/side scrolling Metroid game in 19 years. Nintendo’s relationship with Metroid has always been odd, with the game being popular enough to spin off into its own genre but never selling well enough to be a consistent franchise. So when Nintendo announced a new Metroid game, and one that followed the old 2D formula, fans were unsurprisingly excited.

It was worth the 19 year wait, because it is one of the best Metroid games ever made. Metroid Dread plays extremely well. The action is fun, the exploration feels great, and that old horror tinge the franchise experimented with in Fusion is on full display. It’s not a perfect game by any means, but it’s easily one of the best games on the Switch.

Ring Fit Adventure

Nintendo has a really odd history with trying to get people playing games to exercise. The problem is most of the games have been mediocre at best and flat-out bad at worst. Then came Ring Fit Adventure. Not only is this a game that will make sure the player gets in a good workout, but it’s fun to play, too.

Ring Fit takes the player on a fitness turn-based RPG journey. The plot is very simple, but it’s interesting enough to keep pushing the player forward. Along the way you get stronger, your endurance increases, and by the end, you’ll have gotten in a pretty good workout. It even features a New Game Plus to keep players exercising after they’ve seen credits. There are mini-games to play, and they’ve added a handful of extra features since launch. It’s the best fitness game ever made and a fantastic addition to any Nintendo Switch library.

Golf Story

The strongest aspect of the Nintendo Switch, besides its deep library of IPs, are all the indie games on the console. Most indies aren’t exclusive, but one that is to the Switch is Golf Story. The adventure of Golf Story is fairly simple: A young player wants to get better at golf so they go on a golf RPG-like journey to improve. Along the way, the player will meet some of the funniest written characters on the console, and be put in increasingly weird situations.

The gameplay of Golf Story may push some people away, because it is mainly golf, but the game spices it up with hazards and objectives that are much more exciting than the average round of golf. It’s very similar to to the old Mario Golf Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games in style, but it’s unique enough to stand out on its own. Don’t miss out on one of the best indie games out there.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2

The final spot on this list could have gone to one of several games, like Fire Emblem or Splatoon, but it goes to a personal favorite in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The Xenoblade games are some of the best JRPG’s anyone can play, because despite being adventures that easily exceed the 60-hour mark, none of that time ever feels wasted. Exploration is rewarded, quests are a natural part of gameplay instead of coming across like a checklist, and they keep the player engaged throughout the playthrough.

Think about how many games have a cool starting area, the player spends a few hours there, and then they leave to never return to it. Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and other games in that franchise, get around this by having quests and high level monsters naturally bring the player back to these locations. The world will change and grow while this happens, making the player feel like they are in a constantly changing environment. With the first game receiving a Definitive Edition for the Switch and a sequel on the way, there’s never been a better time to get into Xenoblade than now.

Phoebe Bridgers made a splash at Billboard‘s Women In Music event yesterday, as she performed an acoustic rendition of “Kyoto” and won the Trailblazer Award. That award was presented to her by her mother, and before the show, the two walked the red carpet and gave an interview. During that conversation, Bridgers revealed that while she was smashing her guitar on Saturday Night Live last year, she was concerned she was going to have a wardrobe malfunction.

When asked if she would destroy a guitar on SNL again given the chance, Bridgers said, “I would totally do it again. I would do it a little harder. I thought… I got my guitar caught on my skeleton dress and I was positive I was, like, ripping out my boob for everybody to see, so I was kind of soft… I would just do it harder if I could do it next time [laughs].”

Earlier in the conversation, she was asked how cool it was to hear Taylor Swift call her one of her favorite artists, and she responded, “It’s insane. I’ve been listening to her records for so long. That’s what’s so cool to me, is having peers who aren’t that much older or younger than me, that I’ve been a fan of for so long. Yeah, I don’t know, it just feels so cool.”

The interviewer also wondered who Bridgers first texted or called after Swift texted her and asked to collaborate. She said, “Nobody [laughs]! I didn’t want to jinx it! I was just, like… I drafted a million things, and then… [with] the right punctuation and the right amount of chill. Yeah, I didn’t want to jinx it, so I didn’t tell anybody [laughs].”

Check out the interview above.

EA Sports has responded to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine by removing a number of teams from two of its tentpole games. According to a pair of releases, EA has decided to pull Russian teams — both at the club and national level — from its FIFA franchise, and will remove teams from Russia and Belarus from its NHL game.

“Following the IIHF’s suspension of all Russian and Belarusian national and club teams from IIHF competitions, we will be removing these teams from NHL 22 within the coming weeks,” EA Sports NHL said in a statement released on its Twitter account.

“In line with our partners at FIFA and UEFA, EA Sports has initiated processes to remove the Russian national team and all Russian clubs from EA Sports FIFA products including: FIFA 22, FIFA Mobile and FIFA Online,” the statement from EA Sports FIFA read. “We’re also actively evaluating related changes to other areas of our games.”

Both statements expressed solidarity with the Ukrainian people and called for peace amid in the aftermath of the invasion, and come on the heels of major governing bodies in both sports bringing the hammer down. The International Ice Hockey Federation banned both Belarus and Russia from competing in competitions across all age groups “until further notice,” while UEFA and FIFA took the same steps with Russian clubs and national teams.

The unexpected CBS hit sitcom Ghosts tells the story of a haunted bed and breakfast in upstate New York, so it could very well be based on a true story. But, behind the semi-spooky aspect of the show is a group of ghosts who are still grappling with the identity, even beyond the metaphorical grave.

Among the group of ghosts, which includes a ’90s stock trader, a ’20s jazz singer, and a ’60s cult member who died on her way to Woodstock, is Captain Isaac Higgintoot, played by Brandon Scott Jones. Isaac is a Revolutionary War officer who died on the grounds after the siege of Fort Ticonderoga and often tried to be the leader among the group throughout their various shenanigans. Throughout the first season, the other ghosts speculate about Isaac’s close relationship with another Revolutionary War ghost who lives on the grounds. While there is never any confirmation of Isaac’s sexuality, the upcoming episode will feature an important conversation surrounding the topic.

Uproxx spoke to Jones about the upcoming episode, the cast, and the fan response from the show’s first season.

Obviously, we’re going to keep it spoiler-free but your character has an important discussion with another character. Was that plotline your idea or did the writers approach you about this storyline?

Oh, yeah, it’s a really great question. Definitely wasn’t my idea. It was something that was sort of brewing, you know. There’s only so much time in an episode and there are a lot of characters. I know early on the Joes [creators Joe Port and Joe Wiseman] told me that it was something that they wanted to try and explore. I thought that was really exciting. They approached me and asked me about that moment because I think, for so many people, it is such a defining moment to have a connection like that and to actually admit something that you’ve been holding on to for so long. And so they’ve been, they were really collaborative with the scene.

It was very heart-warming. There is amazing chemistry in the group [of ghosts]. Is that sort of something that is both on and off-screen?

We spend so much time together. We shoot the show in Montreal so one of the blessings of that was that we really only had each other. None of us really knew anybody else up there. And so that entire time that we were shooting, we really only had each other to hang out with and it just happened that we all love each other very much. So that sounds crazy. I know every show is like, “it’s like a family!” but like we really, really, really are. Like we spent so much time together and the day after we finished shooting a little, I was like “I miss you!” But yeah, definitely off-screen we have a lot of fun and we like to hang out and do other things.

You guys were picked up for a second season back in January, when the crew surprised you while filming, fans went crazy on Twitter. The fanbase is super dedicated. How do you think they will react to seeing this upcoming episode?

Well, first of all, the fans of the show are so fun and vocal and interactive. We like interacting with them, which is great, especially online, which has been very cool to see the fan base grow for the show as well. They have little communities, I will look at their interactions with each other [on Twitter] and I’ll just be like, “Oh, they’re friends now!” Isn’t that the cutest? I love it so much. That’s the biggest win, if people are finding each other through this show that’s great because I think ultimately at the core like, that’s what the show is about.

That’s so cute.

I will say, I don’t want to brag, but Colonial Williamsburg tweeted at me and I think it is truly amazing. I was like, “oh my God,” and called my parents right away. I was like, “well, you’ll never believe who tweeted me.” They’ve never been more impressed. We grew up going to Colonial Williamsburg every single summer of our lives. And my yeah, when I told my family that I was like I wanted to be an actor like I remember my grandmother and my mother and my aunt all were like, “Well, the pinnacle of acting would have you playing Thomas Jefferson in Williamsburg.” I was like, “Okay, I want to go a different direction. But thank you!”

Obviously, playing a revolutionary war vet is a weird direction, but do you feel like you can relate to Isaac in certain ways?

It’s definitely weird. Very different. Obviously. When I first got the part I was like “God, how much what research am I going to have to do and all of this,” It was a little overwhelming. But I think at the core of it the thing that I connect with him the most is this idea of being in a place in your life where you kind of wish you were somebody else or you wish you had something different going on. The desperation that you hold on to that idea of who you think you’re supposed to be. The more we sort of like unpack Isaac, for all his bluster and ego, at the core I always think that that is what’s driving him. This idea of wanting to be remembered as somebody else.

I’ve gotten past that point in my own life for sure, well hopefully I have. But I know that he’s just starting that process, especially in an episode. This is such a relatable thing. I think he could be from Mars, and people would still find some sort of way to connect with them.

‘Ghosts’ airs on CBS Thursdays at 9 pm. You can catch all episodes currently streaming on Paramount+.

There’s nothing I enjoy more than a blind taste test. It’s the mystery that excites me the most. There are no brands, labels, or flashy logos to sway me in any one direction. This is especially true when it comes to whiskey. All I can see is amber or caramel-colored liquid. I nose it — hopefully, picking up on subtle nuanced aromas — and then I take a few sips and look for various flavors.

In today’s case, those flavors are going to be mixed with a healthy pour of ginger ale. A simple “whiskey ginger.”

There are tons of well-priced bottles of bourbon well-suited to be mixed with cola, soda water, or ginger ale. There’s absolutely no judgment if that’s your jam — not everything out there is a sipper. And the standard of bourbon is so high that if you’re planning to mix the spirit with ginger ale, you really don’t need to break the bank.

I’ve been known to buy a bargain bottle of bourbon from time to time and mix it with some Schweppes (which I used today) or Canada Dry ginger ale. So I’m not out of my element on this front. In the below tasting, I’m doing exactly that with eight classic, cheap bourbons to see which one really shines in a whiskey ginger.

Our lineup today is:

• Evan Williams Black Label
• Jim Beam White Label
• Old Grand-Dad
• Maker’s Mark
• Wild Turkey
• Early Times
• Ezra Brooks
• Buffalo Trace

Let’s see which bourbon wins!

Part 1: The Taste

Taste 1

Tasting Notes:

Cinnamon sugar, butterscotch, vanilla beans, honey, fudge, and gentle rye spice. This drink truly has a memorable nose. Sipping it brought even more flavor with hints of caramel apples, sweet cream, fudge, gentle nutty sweetness, and rich oak.

This complex flavor profile is a great match for spicy, sweet ginger ale.

Taste 2

Tasting Notes:

This drink has a ton of sugary sweetness on the nose. There are prevalent aromas of sweet corn, vanilla, and caramel. While remaining surprisingly sweet, the palate has some woody oak, more vanilla, and maybe a hint of pepper. Overall, though, it seemed a little thin. I fear it’s getting lost in the background of the ginger spices of the soda mixer.

Taste 3

Tasting Notes:

There’s a ton of fruit on this drink’s nose. On top of that, there’s a bit of vanilla and oak as well. I didn’t catch any other aromas right away though. The palate added to the nose with the addition of brown sugar, more vanilla beans, honey, and slight wintry spices. Some of it was overpowered by the ginger ale, but the fruit and spice worked with the soda.

Taste 4

Tasting Notes:

There’s an herbal, spicy, sweet corn nature to this drink’s nose that really excited me. There are also some dried fruits, vanilla, and cracked black pepper in there. The complexity continued with the palate. This is where I noticed flavors of candied pecans, raisins, clover honey, vanilla cookies, and oaky wood.

Even with the multitude of flavors, this whiskey managed to compliment the ginger sweetness of the soda quite well.

Taste 5

Tasting Notes:

Corn, corn, and more corn (and maybe a little vanilla). That’s pretty much all I found on this drink’s nose. Honestly, it smelled like someone made a whiskey that was supposed to taste like Cracker Jacks. The palate didn’t add to the flavor with more sweet corn, a little vanilla and caramel, and maybe some spice.

If you enjoy corn sugar mixed with your ginger ale then this is the whiskey for you. Otherwise, stay far away.

Taste 6

Tasting Notes:

Right away, you can tell this is a spicy bourbon. On the nose, I found scents of sweet corn, vanilla beans, and raisins, but also a ton of peppery spice that pairs surprisingly well with the ginger aromas. The palate is slightly more subdued with notes of wood char, butterscotch, dried cherries, and more cracked black pepper.

It’s spicy and sweet — making it a great mixer for ginger ale.

Taste 7

Tasting Notes:

Aromas of sweet corn, toffee, and vanilla beans seemed to work well with the spice of the ginger ale on the nose. The palate had hints of sweet honey, chocolate fudge, more vanilla, and just a touch of peppery spice that seemed to compliment the added ginger spice of the soda. Not the best pairing, but definitely not the worst.

Taste 8

Tasting Notes:

A lot is going on with this whiskey’s nose. I noticed hints of woody oak, butterscotch, and a ton of peppery rye. That might not seem complex, but somehow it was. Sipping it revealed notes of clover honey, slight maple candy, coffee beans, and vanilla. It all worked well with the gentle spice of ginger ale.

Part 2: The Ranking

8) Early Times — Taste 5

ABV: 40%

Average Price: $12

The Whiskey:

Early Times is a no-frills, bargain-basement bourbon that first hit the market back in 1860. The name is a reference to the traditional style of whiskey making that included copper pot distillation using open fires. Obviously, due to regulations and the fact that it would take forever to make any whiskey, they use more contemporary methods, but the name has remained.

Bottom Line:

This is a last resort mixer. If you’re looking around for some extra coins in your car to grab a bottle, maybe you’ll snag some Early Times. Otherwise, spend a few more dollars to get something, anything much better.

7) Jim Beam White Label — Taste 2

ABV: 40%

Average Price: $19

The Whiskey:

Jim Beam White Label is touted as “the world’s No.1 bourbon” and that shouldn’t be a surprise since it’s been distilled since 1795 (in one way or another). It’s extremely inexpensive and is available literally anywhere. It’s aged for four years in new, charred American oak barrels to give it a classic, smooth, sweet flavor.

Bottom Line:

Jim Beam is a decent mixer for a ginger ale and bourbon. You’ll just have to add more Beam than you planned unless you want it to get lost in the background.

6) Maker’s Mark — Taste 3

ABV: 45%

Average Price: $28

The Whisky:

Even if you’re not a big whiskey drinker, you’ve probably had Maker’s Mark along the way. One of the most well-known bourbons in the world, Maker’s Mark gets its soft, sweet flavor from the addition of red winter wheat (instead of rye) in the mash.

Bottom Line:

Maker’s Mark is one of the pricier bottles on this list, so I expected a better showing. If you’re willing to pay a little more, it’s not a bad choice for a mixer. Otherwise, stick to something more flavorful and cheaper for mixing with ginger ale.

5) Ezra Brooks — Taste 7

ABV: 45%

Average Price: $15

The Whiskey:

This Kentucky sour mash whiskey is charcoal filtered and bottled at 90 proof. It’s Ezra Brook’s gateway bottle and it’s priced accordingly. Produced by Lux Row Distillers, it’s been a popular whiskey since the 1950s. But it’s definitely the kind of bottle you buy specifically for mixing.

Bottom Line:

Ezra Brooks is cheap, decent, and a great mixer. The flavors pair well enough with ginger ale to make it worth the bargain price tag. There are better options though without breaking the bank.

4) Old Grand-Dad — Taste 6

ABV: 40%

Average Price: $22

The Whiskey:

Legend has it that the “old grand-dad” that adorns this expression is none other than Basil Hayden (who you might know from another Beam whiskey). This high-rye bourbon is known for its nice mix of corn sweetness and rye spice. It’s a whiskey you want to always have on hand.

Bottom Line:

You might not prefer heat on heat, but I do and that makes this a top-tier choice. I enjoy the peppery sweet flavor of Old Grand-Dad and the spicy-sweet flavor of ginger ale.

3) Wild Turkey — Taste 8

ABV: 40.5%

Average Price: $22

The Whiskey:

You can’t go wrong with Wild Turkey 101. But sometimes I prefer a slightly more subdued bourbon, especially when I’m mixing it with ginger ale. Enter their lower-proof version. The brand’s entry-level expression is a high-rye, heavy char-aged, 81-proof versatile whiskey.

Bottom Line:

Wild turkey’s gateway bottle is a total bargain due to its low price and versatility. It’s a great bottle for mixing into your favorite cocktail and especially great when paired with ginger ale, which helps it almost rank number one.

2) Buffalo Trace — Taste 1

ABV: 45%

Average Price: $24

The Whiskey:

Buffalo Trace is a big name in the bourbon world, crafting some of the most sought-after unicorn bottles on the market. But it also makes a small batch bourbon featuring its name (adorned with a buffalo) that manages to always be bargain-priced, mellow, and complex.

Bottom Line:

There’s a reason serious bourbon drinkers and bartenders always have a bottle of Buffalo Trace on hand. It’s a bargain for the layers of aromas and flavors — a perfect complement to ginger ale and nearly today’s winner.

1) Evan Williams Black Label — Taste 4

ABV: 43%

Average Price: $15

The Whiskey:

This award-winning, bargain bourbon was named for Evan Williams who was most known for opening the first distillery in Kentucky. It’s aged for a minimum of four years in new charred American oak barrels to give it the mellow, sweet, mixable flavor drinkers expect.

Bottom Line:

Evan Williams Black Label might not be the most expensive, most popular, or even most-awarded whiskey on this list. But in my opinion, it’s the best accompaniment to ginger ale by far.

Last night, the 14th annual Billboard Women In Music event was held at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, California to honor women in the music industry who have made significant strides or impacts in the past year. The event, which made its return after being canceled last year, awarded such honors as Woman Of The Year, Impact Award, Powerhouse Award, Innovator Award, Trailblazer Award, and Executive Of The Year. As with many awards events, the Women In Music conference also featured live performances from many of its honorees, including Doja Cat, HER, Saweetie, and more.

For Doja Cat’s stripped-down performance of “Alone” from her 2021 album Planet Her, the singer and rapper appeared in a hot pink cloak gown accompanied by piano and light strings on the darkened stage. Beginning without percussion, the instrumentation featured a slow build that never quite resolved, giving an understated appeal to Doja’s usual bombastic onstage antics.

Meanwhile, Saweetie performed her new song “Closer” — sans collaborator H.E.R. — keeping the “Icy flight attendant” aesthetic of the song’s video alive for the stage. In this case, Saweetie and her dancers wore bedazzled gold uniforms as they performed some extremely “disco queen” choreography perfect for the song’s ’70s dance vibe.

Saweetie’s fellow Filipino-American performer HER, meanwhile, delivered an acoustic take on her song “Fate.”

You can watch the performances above or on Billboard.com.

As The Boys gears up for its Season 3 premiere in June, fans who’ve had to wait almost two years for that raunchy Homelander goodness are naturally curious if the show will have a fourth season. Here’s what we know so far. As of this writing, Amazon has not officially announced a Season 4. However, there have been unconfirmed reports that production for a fourth season is set to start soon if it hasn’t already. Whether those rumors are true or not is wide open for debate, but Amazon is definitely leaning heavily into The Boys franchise.

Starting in March 2022, all eight episodes of The Boys: Diabolical will start streaming, making the animated series the first spinoff out of the gate. The madcap mini-episodes will feature canonical stories including a peek at Homelander’s origin. But Diabolical is only the start of the rapidly expanding The Boys universe.

In September 2021, Amazon gave the greenlight to a recently announced live-action spinoff that will focus on a superhero college run by the nefarious Vought Industries. There’s been little in the way of production info on the new spinoff, but Amazon did share a synopsis for the untitled series with The Hollywood Reporter:

Set at America’s only college exclusively for young-adult superheroes (run by Vought International), the Untitled The Boys Spinoff is an irreverent, R-rated series that explores the lives of hormonal, competitive Supes as they put their physical, sexual, and moral boundaries to the test, competing for the best contracts in the best cities. It’s part college show, part Hunger Games—with all the heart, satire, and raunch of The Boys.

With Diabolical and the untitled spinoff in the mix, it’s clear that Amazon is very much in The Boys business. As for whether that means Season 4 is happening, we can’t say for sure. Keeping the main show going as an anchor for the expanding universe is obviously the ideal situation, and there is still plenty of source material from the comics to adapt. However, there are always considerations like the availability of the cast, production costs, and of course, whether or not viewers are turning up to watch the series.

The Boys: Diabolical streams March 4 followed by The Boys Season 3 on June 3.

Sean Hannity would make a terrible politician. (Please remember that if he ever decides to give up his cushy Fox News gig and make a run for public office.) He proved his lack of tact and political acumen on Wednesday night, when he offered up his big idea for the easiest way we could put the Russia Ukraine War to an end right now: Basically, just to go in there and bump off Vladimir Putin. Easy-peasy.

As The Daily Beast reports, Hannity shared his ideas about how to put a swift end to the current crisis in Ukraine, which mostly consisted of a little bit of state-sponsored murder. As he explained:

“Putin has gotta be stopped. By whatever means necessary, one way or another. It’s a simple rule in life: If you invade an innocent country, and you kill women and children and men, you forfeit your right to lead a country and you forfeit your right to live. And I hope that people around Vladimir Putin… well, I hope they take action sooner than later.”

If you think Hannity, who has clearly watched too many James Bond movies, was speaking in jest in any way, think again. Because he clearly did some digging into the legal repercussions of what would happen if someone just snuffed out Putin the way he has done to journalists and many others who don’t bend the knee to him:

“Now currently, the U.S. operates under a decades-old executive order, first signed by President Gerald Ford. It prohibits the U.S. government employees from engaging in political assassination. But my final question tonight is: When it comes to Putin, is it time to now revisit the rule? My rule I like better… Simple: Cut off the head of the snake, the snake dies.”

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is Sam Raimi’s first comic book movie since Spider-Man 3 (and first movie overall since 2013’s Oz the Great and Powerful). If the reaction to the Doctor Strange sequel is anything like how the Spider-Man trilogy capper was greeted in 2007, it will take years for it to be properly appreciated.

Spider-Man 3 is too long with too many villains and I’m not going to claim it’s better than Spider-Man 2, still the best Spider-Man movie. But it shines in the moments when the studio let Raimi (who did not have a fun time making the film) channel his inner Evil Dead-ness. There’s a real joy to the evil Peter Parker sequence that you don’t get in a lot of other comic book movies. Tobey’s emo haircut and makeover was maligned at the time, but it’s now considered a franchise highlight. It’s also being embraced by a younger generation, based on a video that the Marvel Multiverse Twitter account shared.

“This kid is doing the #BullyMaguire dance!” the tweet reads. He sure is. Little guy’s got all the moves memorized perfectly. Raimi must feel… VINDICATED I AM SELFISH I AM WRONG I AM RIGHT I SWEAR I’M RIGHT SWEAR I KNEW IT ALONG.

Larry David’s highly-anticipated documentary The Larry David Story was unexpectedly pulled just one day before it was supposed to premiere on March 1st. The move left fans confused, rightfully so, as many were excited for a rare glimpse inside the comedian’s mind.

According to HBO, David requested that his doc be postponed so he could premiere it in front of a live audience. Why he decided to make the move a day before its premiere is a little strange but hey, comedians can be a little weird, in case you haven’t heard.

The two-part docuseries features a candid conversation between David and fellow director/friend Larry Charles as he gives a behind-the-scenes look into David’s early days of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

“I was 25 years old, I didn’t know what I wanted to do. What do you do when you’re talking and people are laughing? You do comedy.” The now 74-year-old said. If he wants laughter, screening the doc in front of an audience is probably the right move! (But maybe he should have decided that a few weeks ago?) Then again, fans of David have been a little hesitant (AKA devastated) since his Super Bowl crypto ad. (Cue the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme music here).

There is no word yet on when the series will air on HBO, or if the in-person premiere will happen, but hopefully it will happen soon. We all need some more Larry David wisdom in our lives. Just maybe not about crypto. Check out the trailer below.
