7 d. ago Sh!t Theatre: the 10 funniest things I have ever seen (on the internet)

The fringe theatre duo share their list of nostalgic internet delights, including a bat, a mouse and a misbehaving puppet dogGet our weekend culture and lifestyle emailWe are Becca and Louise AKA UK theatre duo Sh!t Theatre, and as fringe theatre makers we are blessed with a life that does not have to be lived Chronically Online. There is no expectation that experimental performance artists must first build an audience on TikTok; everyone else in the arts is worried about AI taking their jobs, but we don’t have to worry – they’re only making AI of things people actually want, and nobody wants fringe theatre.

7 d. ago How does the King of the Hill reboot fit into a very different America?

The welcome return of Mike Judge’s Texas-set animated sitcom about a conservative father tries to find reason during an unreasonable timeThe Fox Network’s rotating lineup of animated sitcoms increasingly dominate the list of the longest-running scripted prime time shows ever made.

So it’s not unusual that King of the Hill, a Fox cartoon that aired in the late 90s and throughout the 2000s, would rejoin its corporate cousins for a 14th season on Hulu. But just as during the show’s original run, it’s an odd fit with those other, brasher animated sitcoms – sometimes blessedly so....
