Saturday Night Live's May 4 cold open was a gift. It kept the tired political humor to a bare minimum and focused instead on a different kind of armageddon: the entertainment-pocalypse that sees Game of Thrones and the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it coming to an end in the space of a single month.

This Avengers: Endgame vsGame of Thrones edition of Saturday Night Live's take on the Family Feud game show isn't going to age well. Its jokes hang on very specific references that only fans of one or the other will appreciate. 

On the other hand, it also gives us the gift of Kenan Thompson shouting "swole Grimace" at Beck Bennett-as-Thanos. And then the normally unflappable Leslie Jones, who plays "Bitch, I'm Groot" here, is so overwhelmed by the ridiculousness of the moment that she laughs openly. Always fun when an SNL cast member breaks. Read more...

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
