Posted by: Matthew Ardill • November 10, 2025 @ 3:22pm
David Zucker has written and directed some of the biggest comedies of all time, including Airplane! and The Naked Gun.
For some reason, I watched the show with subtitles on tonight. It made me realize I've been spelling Adrianna's name incorrectly for the past six weeks. There are two Ns, not one. My bad.
This week, it started to feel (to me, anyway) like the show is gaining its own identity, rather than riding the coattails of the original series.

Sorry about missing last week. By the time I realized this oversight, it was already mid-week, and the post would've been nearly pointless. But here we go again with another week of great late night comedy and some potentially great interviews.
First up, of course, is the list of who you don't want to miss no matter what.
Big ups to my good pal Sarah for her stellar recap last week, which allowed me to finish packing pre-move. And now, I'm all moved in and here to recap this episode, which is titled as it is due to Marisa & Brooke offering some marginally cute airline employee some candy in hopes he'll... book their flight faster? I don't know.
Tears, a little sass, and lot of fighting in the dirt; yeah, there were some good moments in this second episode of Survivor Gabon. Although the challenges had a few dramatic moments, (hanging onto a pole for dear life and gliding down an over-sized slip and slide) the drama involved in the social implications of the game are starting to develop beautifully.
Welcome to your first interactive So You Think You Can Dance Canada discussion post! Each week following the results show on Thursday, I'll post a brief rundown of what went down that week and how I feel about it (which I know you're just dying to hear), and then we here at Showbiz Monkeys want to hear what you have to say.
This week we are treated to a special guest appearance by Breckin Meyer, Taub gets a shiny new car and the new dynamic duo of House and Sherlock treats us to a jam session full of sharp dialogue and bluesy licks. Oh yeahhhh.
