Blake Griffin is a perfect choice for Amazon’s studio coverage of the NBA next season

Blake Griffin WILL make you laugh.

Amazon will begin coverage of the NBA next season and they have already made some amazing decisions, including reportedly hiring Blake Griffin.

According to The Athletic, the former No. 1 overall pick and six-time NBA All-Star will co-host a studio show for Prime Video. He will be joined in the studio by a former NBA Finals and NBA MVP with Dirk Nowitzki also on the show.

Prime Video has an 11-year partnership with the NBA. The studio show is based in Culver City, Calif. on the Amazon MGM lot.

“I’m unbelievably excited to join the Amazon family,” Griffin said in a statement. “Basketball has obviously been a huge part of my life, and I consider myself a true fan of the game. I’m excited for a new opportunity to share some of what I have learned over the years with other NBA fans. I have been incredibly impressed with Amazon’s NFL programming for Thursday Night Football, and my conversations with the team around the NBA partnership have been equally inspiring. I’m honored to be a part of this launch and a new era for Prime Video sports.”

Taylor Rooks, who has done incredible work with Turner Sports, will host the program. Ian Eagle, one of the best broadcasters in the game, is the lead play-by-play announcer for the network. It is unclear who else will join him in the booth.

“We are thrilled to have Taylor, Dirk, and Blake on board as the foundation for our NBA studio coverage,” added Jared Stacy, Global Head of Production at Amazon. “Together they bring a mix of credibility, charisma, and unique insight on the game that will inform and entertain NBA fans starting this fall. Taylor is one of the most well respected and thoughtful people working in NBA media today, while Blake and Dirk are legends of the game ready to share their insightful analysis and sense of humor with NBA fans.”

All in all, this seems like a great start of hiring decisions for Amazon. But with the Inside the NBA crew getting syndication on ESPN, fans should feel particularly excited about Griffin’s arrival to the scene.

He will have plenty of connections around the league as he only recently retired. But he is also genuinely hilarious and could have had a career in entertainment independent of his athletic prowess, evidenced by his various stand-up comedy sets and roast appearances over the years.

Griffin takes this very seriously, appearing on comedy podcasts and late-night talk shows. He was brilliant on Comedy Central’s Broad City and he was hilarious during a live read of Space Jam.

He has worked with a wide range of brilliant comedians, including Norm McDonald and Eric Andre. Griffin founded a production company, Mortal Media.

Amazon reportedly wants Griffin to play a Charles Barkley-like role for their show and he has the chops to do it.

Kathy Bates hilariously ripped up her Golden Globes acceptance speech after not winning

The highly-acclaimed FX series won all four awards it was nominated for, including best lead and supporting actors for Hiroyuki Sanada and Tadanobu Asano, as well as Best Drama Series.

Sawai was up against a powerhouse lineup that included Keira Knightley (Black Doves), Maya Erskine (Mr. & Mrs. Smith), Emma D’Arcy (House of the Dragon), Keri Russell (The Diplomat) and the iconic Kathy Bates (Matlock).

When Sawai’s name was announced, Bates dramatically (and obviously playfully) ripped up her acceptance speech.

Absolutely incredible work from the long-time actress.

Nikki Glaser got Adam Sandler to assist her Timothée Chalamet Golden Globes joke

The perfect crowd participation.

The 82nd Golden Globes took place on Sunday night, bringing together the best and brightest from both film and television. Comedian and actress Nikki Glaser took over hosting duties, and the roast comic had fun with the crowd in Los Angeles during her opening riff.

At one point, the Trainwreck actress playfully joked with Timothée Chalamet, the star of both Dune: Part Two and A Complete Unknown, about his mustache and more. At one point, Glaser commented that his name was so fun, sounding like a name Happy Gilmore actor Adam Sandler would say.

After mimicking Sandler’s style, she called on him in the audience. Thankfully, Sandler obliged with a “Chalamet” of his own.

Everything we know about the Chad Powers Hulu series, including who’s replacing Eli Manning

The prank turned series hits Hulu in fall of 2025.

Two years ago, the world met Chad Powers, a “walk on” at Penn State University. It was a bit done as a prank by former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning for the Omaha Productions YouTube channel, but now it’s grown into something more.

Much like the wildly popular Apple TV+ series Ted Lasso, which stemmed from a Jason Sudeikis commercial, Chad Powers will now head to the small screen as a television series.

Here’s what we know about the upcoming Chad Powers series on Hulu.

When and where is Chad Powers releasing?

Chad Powers is listed as a Fall 2025 release on the Hulu streaming platform.

What is the basic plot of the Chad Powers series?

The show will follow Russ Holliday, a college football QB that sees his dreams go up in smoke after getting in some trouble. Instead of giving up on playing, Holliday disguises himself as the likable Chad Powers in an attempt to walk onto a new team.

Who is playing Chad Powers?

Glen Powell, the charismatic star of Twisters, Hit Man, Anyone But You and Top Gun: Maverick is taking over the mantle of Chad Powers for the series. He has the ability to ride the line between confident and cocky while also being extremely charming. As a massive Texas fan, Powell is also fully equipped to immerse himself in the world of college football.

Who else is involved in Chad Powers?

Powell and Michael Waldron (Loki, Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness) are co-creators and executive producers. Eli and Peyton Manning are also executive producers, alongside Ben Brown, Jamie Horowitz and ESPN. Steve Zahn (The White Lotus, That Thing You Do!) also stars, as well as Perry Mattfeld (In the Dark).

SNL cold open features Martin Short joining the Five-Timers club with Tom Hanks, Tina Fey and Paul Rudd

So much comedic talent in one room.

The list of celebrities that have hosted Saturday Night Live five times or more is an illustrious group, and several of them crashed the set on Saturday night to welcome its newest member. Martin Short, who was a cast member on the sketch comedy show from 1984 to 1985, hosted this weekend for his fifth time overall.

During the cold open, Short was welcomed into the prestigious Five-Timers club by Tom Hanks (10 times hosting) and Paul Rudd (five times). He was then congratulated by fellow Five-Timers Tina Fey (six times), Alec Baldwin (17 times), Scarlett Johansson (six times), Kristen Wiig (five times), Melissa McCarthy (five times), Emma Stone (five times) and John Mulaney (six times).

The actors then took turns confessing things, since the Five-Timers club is where “you can be completely honest.”

Adam Sandler joined SNL as a surprise guest with Chris Rock

The one-time cast mates reunited.

Longtime SNL cast member Chris Rock — who was on the show from 1990-1993 — returned to the sketch comedy series this weekend as the host. It was his fourth time hosting, and Rock was joined by an iconic cast mate for one of the sketches.

Adam Sandler, who was a cast member on SNL from 1990-1995, surprised the audience in a skit where he played a patient being operated on. Sandler wakes up after a nurse left an AirPod inside him, and starts spurting blood.

It’s a perfectly ridiculous sketch, and Sandler breaks several times as he sprays fake blood on the rest of the cast.
