Web Series: ‘Bad Rich Boy’ Flexes Comedic Muscles

Artie O’Daly serves up the latest installment of his wild and wacky ‘Bad Boy’ web series just in time for Hump Day. In this episode, titled ‘Bad Rich Boy,’ Scott (played by O’Daly) returns home from a business trip and is surprised (again) to find BJ (Braden Davis) playing house. Scott: “BJ – why are you in my house?” BJ: “Same reason you’re here.” Scott: “I live here.” BJ: “I live here – when you’re not here…” BJ explains an ‘executor’ (or is it ‘executioner?’) contacted him about his dead uncle’s estate worth over $2 million. Whitney (Theresa Ryan) shows up complaining that Mariah Carey stole her life story, Jim (Drew Canan) finds a very good reason to take off his shirt (yay!), and everyone has an opinion on Scott smelling like cows.

Got it? Going on… The executor, Kaleidoscope (her parents had a thing for light refractions), finally shows up but she may not be exactly who she appears to be. O’Daly’s sharp dialogue keeps the absurdist comedy storytelling on point as the characters ricochet from topic to topic with Scott trying to survive the verbal chaos. And an unexpected revelation leads everyone to wonder who might have killed him. Hit the play button below for a clever mid-day brain break.

Funny: ‘Bad Boy’ Takes Care Of ‘Daddy Scott’

Artie O’Daly is back with a new episode of his popular ‘Bad Boy’ web series. This is the 11th installment of O’Daly’s off-beat, wild and wacky world of ‘Bad Boys’ where no one really seems to be following anyone else’s conversation. The short film opens ‘Bad Boy’ Jim (Drew Canan) explaining a faux robbery he attempted naked and armed with just his hot dog. Cue the series of weiner jokes peppered throughout the clip. Scott (‘Daddy Scott’) played by O’Daly isn’t feeling great, so he shuts down work early. Jim immediately jumps into action to take care of Scott providing tissues, furry cuddle buddy, and some pills. What kind of pills? Who knows? Jim also offers to rub Scott’s chest with VapoRub, which somehow leads to pouring baby oil on his own chest and rubbing things around. Cue the 70s porn music. Along the way there’s a worker at the door who wants to work on Scott’s ‘crack,’ and Aunt Whitney may (or may not) have a dead paramour upstairs. Props to O’Daly for his consistently off-kilter dialogue that keeps the ‘Bad Boys’ universe so quirky and entertaining. You can check out my previous coverage of the ‘Bad Boy’ series here.

Witness Billy Porter’s ‘Tragic’ Moment In New Trailer For Comedy ‘Like A Boss’

Check out the trailer for the upcoming Like A Boss starring Salma Hayek, Rose Byrne, and Tiffany Haddish. Here’s the official description:

Best friends Mia and Mel (Tiffany Haddish and Rose Byrne) are living their best lives running their own cosmetics company they’ve built from the ground up. Unfortunately, they’re in over their heads financially, and the prospect of a big buyout offer from a notorious titan of the cosmetics industry Claire Luna (Salma Hayek) proves too tempting to pass up, putting Mel and Mia’s lifelong friendship in jeopardy. The beauty business is about to get ugly.

Emmy Award winner Billy Porter plays a cosmetics chemist who apparently gets fired when Hayek says he’s got to go. Porter’s character seems about as shy as Porter himself in real life. The Pose star shared his excitement about the film in a recent interview for Palm Springs Life Magazine saying, “Praise the Lord, I got a really good part.” The film also stars Jennifer Coolidge (who I love), Ari Graynor, Natasha Rothwell, Jessica St. Clair, and Karan Soni. Like A Boss lands in theaters January 10.

The Liberal Redneck & Buddies Perform For Gay Naturists

The Liberal Redneck, Trae Crowder, and buddies Drew Morgan and Corey Ryan Forrester were recently invited to perform for the Gay Naturists International event in the Poconos.

Only snag was: Crowder assumed the word “nature” being a part of the title meant it had something to do with – what else? – nature.

Or the environment.

Or, something.

And he was kinda sorta right, but not really.

Check out Trae, Drew and Corey as they explore the world of gay nude guys in the wild 🙂

Samantha Bee On “The Most Important Election Of A Lifetime”

As every presidential candidate announces in strong, stentorian tones that this election is the “most important election” ever, ever, ever – Samantha Bee points to the rather snooze-worthy 2010 mid-term elections.

“The year was 2010. Kesha’s brave cry for help was at the top of dance charts. The man-made disaster spewing toxic foulness wasn’t Donald Trump, but Deepwater Horizon. And, oh yeah, there was an election. Just one of those boring midterm ones that will.i.am. does not make videos about. And just like with our college midterms, most of America thought it was fine to sleep through this one.”
