“The Carol Burnett Show” ran from 1967 to 1978 and has been touted as one of the best television series of all time. The cast and guest stars of the show included comedic greats such as Tim Conway, Betty White, Steve Martin, Vicki Lawrence, Dick Van Dyke, Lyle Waggoner, Harvey Korman and others who went on to have long, successful comedy careers.
One firm rule Carol Burnett had on her show was that the actors stay in character. She felt it was especially important not to break character during the “Family” scenes, in which the characters Ed and Eunice Higgins (a married couple) and Mama (Eunice’s mother) would play host to various colorful characters in their home.
“I never wanted to stop and do a retake, because I like our show to be ‘live,’” she wrote in her memoir, as reported by Showbiz Cheat Sheet. “So when the ‘Family’ sketches came along, I was adamant that we never break up in those scenes, because Eunice, Ed, and Mama were, in an odd way, sacred to me. They were real people in real situations, some of which were as sad and pitiful as they were funny, and I didn’t want any of us to break the fourth wall and be out of character.”
It was a noble goal, and one that went right out the window—with Burnett leading the way—in a “Family” sketch during the show’s final season that ended with the entire cast rolling with laughter.
In the scene, Eunice, Mama, Dan (an old friend of Ed’s) and Mickey (Ed’s employee at the hardware store) are playing “Password” and the word they’re trying to get their partners to guess is “ridiculous.” Eunice (played by Carol Burnett) gives Mickey (played by Tim Conway) the clue word “laughable,” and after pondering for a bit, he says “elephant.”
Eunice scolds him for his bizarre answer, then Conway launches into a wild ad-libbed story about a circus elephant that goes on and on and on.
Burnett is the first one to lose it. The cast barely keeps it together through the sketch.
But that was just one take. Between takes, the director gave the actors a note: The elephant story would be different in the next filming—and good luck.
The next elephant story was even wilder than the first, and Burnett and Dick Van Dyke couldn’t stop themselves from laughing. Conway himself breaks a couple of times, and even Vicki Lawrence (playing Mama), who famously never broke character, had to hide her face for a moment.
Then, just when they finally got themselves composed and Burnett was able to deliver her line, “Go on, Mama,” Lawrence delivered the most perfectly timed a-bomb and the whole cast exploded:
So delightful. And for an added bonus, watch Vicki Lawrence tell the story about how that scene came about:
In the pantheon of refreshing spring beers, it’s tough to beat the appeal of a classic kölsch. This traditional pale-hued, light, subtly malty, crisp beer comes from Cologne, Germany. Although brewed since the 1600s, it wasn’t until the late 1990s that kölsch gained a protected geographic status (like cognac, champagne, and bourbon), meaning it can only be brewed within thirty-one miles of Cologne.
But just because authentic kölsch beers can only be made in the direct vicinity of Cologne, that hasn’t stopped brewers in the U.S. from crafting their own locally-brewed “kölsch-style” beers. Since most of the American versions are brewed to emulate the classic German flavors, you’ll get a refreshing, easy-to-drink, and perfectly crisp light beer for a warm spring day.
To help you get the most out of a kölsch-drenched spring, we decided to help you out. We picked eight great kölsch-style beers and ranked them based on overall flavor and seasonal appropriateness. Keep reading to see where your favorite kölsch-style beer landed.
Available from March through July, the brewers at Genesee weren’t content with simply creating a classic kölsch-style beer. Instead, they opted to craft this traditional golden ale with the addition of subtle ruby red grapefruit. This creates a crisp, refreshing, and lightly tart spring/summer beer.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is loaded with yeasty bread, lightly floral, earthy hops, and a healthy dose of grapefruit. There’s more of the same on the palate with a malty backbone, lightly bitter, floral hops, and a ton of grapefruit. In fact, if you don’t like fruity beers, it’s a bit much.
Bottom Line:
While more balanced than many fruit-based beers, Ruby Red Kölsch is a little heavy on the citrus flavor for some Kölsch-style fans.
Fredericksburg, Texas-based brewery Altstadt might be located in the Lone Star State, but it’s as authentically German — well, as an American brewery can be anyway. Its 4.8% ABV Kölsch is a prime example of that authenticity. Using noble hops, German malts, and top-fermenting yeast, it’s simple, clean, crisp, and fresh.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is fairly muted with some floral hops and cracker malts and not much else. But that’s to be expected from a no-frill easy-drinking beer. The palate continues this trend. There are sweet malts, cereal grains, and floral, noble hops. It’s crisp and refreshing.
Bottom Line:
This is the definition of a simple no-frills beer. It’s crushable and crisp, but not all that complex.
Scottsdale Blonde is Huss Brewing’s flagship beer. It makes sense. Who wouldn’t want to drink a German-style Kölsch in a desert climate? Known for its crisp thirst-quenching nature, it gets its classic flavor from the liberal use of German-sourced hops.
Tasting Notes:
A classic nose of floral, earthy noble hops, yeasty bread, and light citrus greet your nostrils before your first sip. Drinking it reveals notes of lemongrass, cereal grains, sweet malts, and floral, bright hops. The finish is crisp, dry, and highly refreshing.
Bottom Line:
This is another Kölsch that serves the purpose it was created for. It’s balanced, crisp, and drinks easy.
We love a good crisp beer after an afternoon of mowing the lawn. That’s why we love Saint Arnold Fancy Lawnmower so much. This award-winning beer is brewed with kölsch yeast and Hallertauer hops sourced from Bavaria. It’s known for its balanced flavor profile of citrus, hops, and malts.
Tasting Notes:
Freshly baked bread, citrus zest, floral hops, and light spices make this a very intriguing nose. The palate is exactly the same as the nose and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Yeasty bread, cereal grains, lemon, grass, and floral, lightly spicy, hops make up a memorable palate.
Bottom Line:
This beer was crafted to be a crushable beer to drink while your legs are covered in grass clippings. But it’s also well-balanced and flavorful.
We don’t know what the sea has to do with Kölsch, but we know we enjoy this American version of the German classic. This year-round, 4.8% ABV kölsch-style ale is brewed with German pilsner malts and Hallertauer hops. This creates a crisp, floral, flavorful beer that’s great for the spring.
Tasting Notes:
On the nose, you’ll find scents of yeasty bread, floral hops, honey, and light citrus zest. The palate continues this trend with flavors of wet grass, fruit esters, lemongrass, cereal grains, pilsner malts, honey, and earthy, herbal, snappy hops. The finish is crisp, dry, and leaves you wanting more.
Bottom Line:
While many kölsch-style beers are bare-bones and no-frills, Three Weaver’s version is surprisingly complex. It’s the kind of beer that needs multiple samplings before you find all the flavors.
While some breweries prefer to keep things as traditional as possible, San Francisco’s Fort Point Beer decided to make a kölsch-style beer that bridges the gap between the old world and the new. That’s why they brewed theirs with German malts and American hops.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is a mix of biscuit malts, sweet cereal grains, fruit esters, and earthy, floral hops. On the palate, you’ll find hints of freshly baked bread, cereal grains, dried fruits, citrus zest, and more floral, bright, lightly bitter hops. The finish is crisp, refreshing, and semisweet.
Bottom Line:
This is a kölsch-style beer for West Coast hop fans as it’s brewed with Saphir and Warrior hops along with Vienna and Munich malts.
This 4.9% ABV version of Utepils’ Copacetic Kölsch gets its base flavor from the use of barley grown in the vicinity of Cologne, Germany. It’s known for its well-balanced, easy-drinking nature with a nice mix of malt sweetness and floral, hoppy bitterness.
Tasting Notes:
A complex nose of yeasty bread, cereal grains, caramel malts, grass, lemon, and floral, lightly piney hops are prevalent on the nose. Sipping it brings forth notes of honeyed sweetness, brown bread, spicy, floral hops, dried fruits, and light citrus zest. The finish is dry, sweet, and refreshing.
Bottom Line:
This is a sessionable, thirst-quencher with substance. It’s a great mix of sweet honey, floral hops, malts, and light spice.
This 4.5% ABV award-winning beer is the Framingham, Massachusetts-based brewery’s love letter to the city of Cologne.
Tasting Notes:
A traditional nose of biscuity malts, honey, lemon zest, cereal grains, and noble hops greet you. The feeling that you’re diving into a classic Kölsch continues the palate. You’ll find freshly baked bread, yeast, floral, spicy hops, citrus peels, honey, and sweet malts. It all ends in a crescendo with a crisp, lightly sweet, barely bitter hoppy finish.
Bottom Line:
If you only drink one Kölsch-style ale on this list, make it Goody Two Shoes. It’s complex, flavorful, and on par with the traditional beers of Cologne.
At CinemaCon 2022, the messiest press tour of all time got kicked off when Olivia Wilde was served child custody documents during her introduction for the trailer for Don’t Worry Darling. According to Variety, the convention isn’t keen on letting that happen again.
“We take our show very seriously. We said we were going to reevaluate and put into place more intensive plans and protocols, and we have. I’m not at liberty and won’t discuss those specific plans,” said Mitch Neuhauser, managing director of CinemaCon.
It was a shocking breach, and Wilde called it out as such when reflecting on the event, having a lot to say about her ex Jason Sudeikis and CinemaCon’s screw up. And if she felt free to speak publicly about it, it’s easy to imagine what she might have said in private. For good reason.
CinemaCon isn’t going into detail about what exactly they’ve done to fix the issue, which makes sense from a security standpoint, but the process server debacle was bizarre to begin with because he’d been credentialed as an industry insider. Presumably, there will be another layer of vetting for those attending to prove that they actually work in the industry instead of getting paid to hand people upsetting documents.
Anyone who knows even the basic plotline of Succession can’t help but imagine that the show was at least partially inspired by Rupert Murdoch and the very public succession battle his kids—Lachlan, James, Elisabeth, and Prudence—have engaged in. Rupert—the billionaire media mogul whose vast empire of properties includes Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, and The Sun—sees the similarities, too. To the point that he mentioned the hit HBO series by name in his divorce settlement with Jerry Hall, the most recent of his four ex-wives.
One source said Rupert got word to James that it would mean a lot if James attended his 90th birthday party, but James didn’t go. According to another source, Lachlan told Rupert that James was leaking stories to the writers of Succession, HBO’s acclaimed drama about a Murdoch-like media dynasty. (The person close to Lachlan denies Lachlan told Rupert this.) A person close to James said he and Kathryn believed PR operatives aligned with Rupert and Lachlan were digging up dirt on them. Lachlan, meanwhile, had to flee Los Angeles because the Murdoch legacy was so toxic. According to two sources, Lachlan’s family was ostracized in LA because of Fox News’s climate change denialism. Lachlan moved his family back to Australia in March 2021. Elisabeth had crises of her own. In 2014, she and PR guru Matthew Freud filed for divorce after 13 years of marriage.
But Rupert’s Succession obsession didn’t end there. In the summer of 2022, Hall was at the couple’s estate in Oxfordshire awaiting her husband’s arrival when she received an email from the then 91-year old… that he was divorcing her. “We have certainly had some good times, but I have much to do,” read the email. (Hall said she was blindsided.)
When the actual divorce happened two months later, Vanity Fair reports that “One of the terms of the settlement was that Hall couldn’t give story ideas to the writers on Succession.” As if that doesn’t sound like a Logan Roy move, this one will: Following their divorce, Hall was back at the home in Oxfordshire—which she was given in the divorce—and discovered that her near-every move was being filmed by surveillance cameras, with the footage being sent on to Fox News. So Hall had to get her own ex involved. “Mick Jagger sent his security consultant to disconnect them,” writes Sherman.
After a lot of anticipation, The Super Mario Bros. Movie finally hit theaters, and so far, it has been a massive success. Despite some concerns over Chris Pratt’s voice as Mario, the movie very clearly does what it intended to do. The stand out of the entire film, though, was Jack Black’s Bowser.
Black perfectly encapsulated the silly side of Bowser that is prevalent in a lot of the Mario RPG games while still having a bit of a sinister tone to him that was necessary for when he had to remind everyone he was the Koopa King. This led to a thought: With Jack Black so perfectly encapsulating a video game character in a movie, how has he done in all of his actual video game voice acting roles? I put some thought into it and here is what I consider the definitive Jack Black video game character ranking.
1. Psychonauts 2, Helmut Fullbear
Psychonauts 2 is a wonderful game. It also features Jack Black’s best character of any game, Helmut Fullbear. When the player initially comes across Helmut, he’s nothing but a brain in a jar, but through a ridiculous ’70s-inspired world, the player eventually helps him return to his old self.
Helmut is the best performance of Black’s voice acting career. He hits every emotional note perfectly, but he also manages to leave you laughing until your sides hurt — the player gets to experience a great concert scene involving him that single-handedly makes purchasing the game worth it. If you want to see Black show some incredible range as a voice actor, then Psychonauts 2 is the game to play.
2. Brutal Legend, Eddie Riggs
This is the only game where you will get to play as Black voicing the main character. Brutal Legend is an extremely weird game. It’s set in a world run by Metal (the music genre) and in many ways is an homage to rock and metal icons with actual voice roles given to Lemmy Kilmister, Rob Halford, Ozzy Osbourne, and Lita Ford. The combat frequently flips between a third-person adventure hack and slash to a real-time strategy game, and all of it features Black as Eddie Riggs.
When Black agreed to voice Riggs, it still wasn’t common for celebrities to do voice roles in video games and Black was still better known as the guy from School of Rock and Tenacious D than as a voice actor. As a result, it was a little surprising when Black went on to give a genuinely good performance. He’s funny, charismatic, and fits into the role of a roadie thrust into becoming a hero perfectly. The game itself was well received and the relationship he formed with creator Tim Schafer lasts to this day.
3. Broken Age, Harm’ny Lightbeard
Double Fine games are historically very silly, but every once in a while they’ll hit you with an emotional gut punch the way Broken Age does. It’s a story about growing up, and it will leave many of us wondering if we have made the right decisions when setting up the future for the children in it. Unfortunately, part two left many disappointed with some of its writing decisions.
What didn’t disappoint was the character voiced by Jack Black, Harm’ny Lightbeard. A total delight, laugh-out-loud funny, and also a crook trying to scam you out of your money, what’s not to love about this character? He even dropped the O from his name because “it makes him lighter,” which makes absolutely no sense. This minor character was perfect for Black to play and is one of his funniest, but it’s this low on the list primarily because it’s such a minor character.
4. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, Officer Dick
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is one of the best examples of how to do a remake and a total joy to play. The controls are crisp, the music is full of nothing but winners, and every guest character is perfect. This includes a longtime staple of the series, Officer Dick. A recurring character throughout the series, Officer Dick has always been meant to be played for laughs, but Pro Skater 1+2 took it a step further and gave us Jack Black voicing the character.
He’s funny, all his lines are well delivered, and he’s a fantastic addition to the game. Unfortunately, this is not exactly a character but more just Black delivering quippy one liners while you do tricks. He can’t be any higher on this list because that would be putting him above actual characters, but even in a small role, his performance here is great.
5. King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie, Carl Denham
Let’s keep this one brief. King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie is Black voicing a character that he already voiced in a movie. The performance itself is not awful considering this was his first foray into video games, but it is far from his best. His actual performance in the King Kong movie is underrated, in my opinion, but this one isn’t. However, if this is what inspired him to go on and do more video games down the line, then it’s great that he did it.

The world was given a rare but beautiful gift this week when the teaser trailer for the John Wick spinoff series The Continental dropped and gave us a first look at all of the gratuitous violence and the unexplainable horrors of New York City in the 1970s. Although it’s being called a “three-episode event” instead of limited series, you understand the gist of what they’re going for.
The Continental will bring guests back to a time when assassins roamed free throughout the city, way before John Wick was given his first puppy. The series will focus on a young Winston Scott (portrayed by Ian McShane in the films) who makes his way to New York to hide out at the assassin-friendly hotel while learning about the inner workings of its hierarchy. Similar to Hotel For Dogs, but with people instead of pups. For the most part.
Colin Woodell will lead the series, joined by Peter Greene, Ben Robson, Ayomide Adegun, and Mel Gibson (yeah, really). But the most jaw-dropping moment of the show’s teaser trailer doesn’t even include a jaw at all, and that’s the debut of Katie McGrath as The Adjudicator.
Peacock
First introduced in John Wick Chapter 3, The Adjudicator is a High Table agent who tries to maintain the balance in the tight-night assassin community. As the main antagonist in Chapter 3, The Adjudicator (who is non-binary) was keen on taking down John Wick, who, to be fair, didn’t play by the rules. In the film, this character was portrayed by Asia Kate Dillion, though Dillion did not reprise their role in Chapter 4, as The Adjudicator was missing from that film, though there was no clarification of whether they were dead or alive.
Seeing as The Continental will be a prequel, it seems like we will learn the origins of this High Table agent who seems to have a ton of power and surely loves to use it. While McGrath only appeared in the trailer for a split second, it’s clear that she is getting comfortable as a cold-blooded killer by wearing a chic Hannibal Lecter-inspired look. Hopefully, they don’t eat people.
The Continental will debut on Peacock this September.
Fresh off the release of her debut solo album, In Pieces, buzzing pop-R&B vocalist Chlöe popped by Uproxx Studios to deliver a virtuoso performance of her album’s Usher-sampling second single “How Does It Feel.”
While the single’s controversial guest star, Chris Brown, doesn’t make a physical appearance, Chlöe opts to leave Brown’s vocals intact, keeping a melodic counterpoint to her own dazzling display of dynamic range.
Chlöe confronted the criticism about her collaboration with Chris Brown head-on recently, telling Big Tigger of her hometown radio station V-103 Atlanta, “I always just wanna let the music speak for itself, and to be honest, no matter what I do, people always find things to say about it, so I’m used to it. I just choose to ignore it. People have every right to their opinions, freedom of speech, and it’s up to me to choose what I give my attention and energy to.”
In a separate interview on another Atlanta radio station, Chlöe likewise brushed off some of the main criticisms of her new album, saying, “The same people who say that weren’t fans of Halle and [me] when we had our Ungodly Hour album out… So, it’s a bunch of people who are just putting in their two cents now just to really say things.”
And just to hammer the point home, during the opening of her tour for the album, she displayed some of the most common critiques, while telling haters, “They can kiss my Black ass.”
That’s how she feels, since everybody else gets a say.
Check out Chlöe’s UPROXX Sessions performance of “How Does It Feel” above.
UPROXX Sessions is Uproxx’s performance show featuring the hottest up-and-coming acts you should keep an eye on. Featuring creative direction from LA promotion collective, Ham On Everything, and taking place on our “bathroom” set designed and painted by Julian Gross, UPROXX Sessions is a showcase of some of our favorite performers, who just might soon be yours, too.
Before there was Tucker Carlson, there was Bill O’Reilly. For 20-plus years before Carlson was the biggest name on Fox News, O’Reilly held that title. So the No Spin Zone czar knows a little something about the network, including when it’s in trouble. And according to O’Reilly, Fox News is definitely in trouble.
On Wednesday night, as Mediaite reports, O’Reilly joined fellow cable news network fallen angel Chris Cuomo to chat about Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit against Fox and what it could ultimately mean for the network and its owner, Rupert Murdoch (a.k.a. the real-life Logan Roy). In O’Reilly’s words, it could end up being a total “catastrophe.”
While Cuomo made it clear that he wasn’t wishing the network “ill,” he did admit that he is “shocked they’ve let it go as far as they have, especially when they’re obviously worried about what they’re disclosing.” Like, say, the fact that — despite his recent fawning interview — Carlson hates Donald Trump “passionately” and thinks the former president is a “demonic force.” But O’Reilly’s belief is that Dominion doesn’t want to settle — even if Fox News did. And he doesn’t think things are going to turn out so rosy for the network.
O’Reilly noted that jury selection was set to begin today with initial testimonies being heard on Monday. “Rupert Murdoch will be called very quickly,” he said, “and a good lawyer will not make him look good. There’s no doubt about it. So you would think that Rupert Murdoch — who calls the shots — would try to settle. So now I believe that Dominion doesn’t want to settle. That Dominion believes it’s going to win its case and, on top of the $1.6 billion it’s asking, the jury of regular folks will give it punitive damages as well.”
Ultimately, O’Reilly concluded, “It’s a catastrophe for the Fox News channel” — which really seemed to surprise Cuomo to hear.
While O’Reilly says that having no cameras in the courtroom will benefit Fox News in that people who watch the likes of Tucker, Sean Hannity, and/or Laura Ingraham won’t get to witness a skilled lawyer cut them to pieces while under oath, he also thinks it could hurt Team Murdoch. “Because now literally every news organization covering the trial wants Fox to lose,” O’Reilly opined. “So the American people are going to get filtered through that.”
When Cuomo suggested that having one opinion within the network, then telling audiences something completely different, is a bad thing, O’Reilly said that he really doesn’t know “if hypocrisy is worth $1.6 billion.” And when it comes to the charges against Fox — “reckless disregard for the truth” — O’Reilly believes that Dominion will indeed be able to prove that standard.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie is breaking records faster than Mario with a Super Star. The Nintendo and Illumination collaboration, featuring Chris Pratt as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser (in an Oscar-worthy performance), and Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach, had the biggest opening weekend for an animated film ever; it’s also the highest-earning video game movie of all-time and the top-grossing movie of 2023 at the domestic box office. Not bad for a movie that’s been out for all of a week.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie leaped over Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania to become the biggest movie of 2023, followed byCreed III, John Wick: Chapter 4, and Scream VI. It’s also number three worldwide for the year, behind two China releases, Full River Red and The Wandering Earth 2. Mario won’t have much competition at the domestic box office until Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One or Barbie, both which I plan to see 200 million times. At least. It’ll be a real toss-up.
“The industry finally has a pre-pandemic level of consistent animated and family-friendly flicks throughout the summer and year-end holiday season,” Shawn Robbins of Box Office Pro told the Hollywood Reporter. “All of which are kickstarted by the Mario juggernaut.”
I checked: there isn’t a Mario character called Juggernaut. Maybe he’ll be created for the 17th film in the inevitable MCU (Mario Cinematic Universe).
