Colbert On Super PAC: 'Almost Nothing Is Against
The Law'

post from TV on HuffingtonPost.com on 04 May 2012 11:36:23 AM. © TV on HuffingtonPost.com

After weeks and weeks of making a mockery of political action committees, handing over ownership to Jon Stewart and taking it back, what exactly did Stephen Colbert end up doing with all that Super PAC money?

On Thursday night's "Late Show," a rarely out-of-character Colbert visited David Letterman to talk about the experience, starting with when he bought a Colbert PAC domain name online and got a call from Comedy Central saying it "could be trouble." Of course Colbert had to follow through with his elaborate joke after that.

Colbert also commented on the absurdly loose spending regulations on Super PACs:

"There's almsot nothing that's against the law when it comes to spending political money," Colbert said. "Short of hookers and blow..."

Watch the clip above, wherein Letterman also grills Colbert on the location of his Super PAC cash stash.

Why Any Girl Would Be Lucky To Get Chris
Harrison's Final Rose

post from TV on HuffingtonPost.com on 04 May 2012 11:34:22 AM. © TV on HuffingtonPost.com

It was the split heard 'round the world: Chris Harrison, host of "The Bachelor", announced on Thursday he is getting a divorce.

After 18 years of marriage, Harrison confirmed that he and his wife Gwen are officially splitting:

"Though we have made this incredibly difficult decision to separate, our love and mutual respect remain, and we look forward to sharing in the lives of our wonderful children."

18 years is a long time -- in fact, an eternity in "Bachelor" terms. Despite playing matchmaker to literally hundreds (!) of uber bronzed, publicity-loving, good ol' American kids on "The Bachelor" franchise for ten years, we gather Chris is a little rusty in the dating department. How will our favorite TV host fair as a bachelor himself?

Luckily, he's got the look down pat. Here are his top five style qualities that make Chris the most eligible bachelor this side of ABC primetime. Perhaps we will see Harrison giving out his own final rose someday soon?

Kim Jong Il may be long gone, but Margaret Cho isn't.

According to Laughspin, the comidienne is returning to on the May 17 episode of "30 Rock" (8:30 p.m. ET on NBC), as well as the show's season finale for another run as former North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il.

Cho will reportedly play two characters in at least one of the two episodes, but details are being kept under wraps.

The Vampire Diaries "Before Sunset": The Good,
The Bad, and The Bloody

post from BuzzSugar on 04 May 2012 10:56:52 AM. © BuzzSugar

I didn't really expect things to get that crazy on The Vampire Diaries until next week's season finale, but wow, this week is full of intensity. There are a few big fights, a little bit of vampire torture, and though Alaric is the villain of the episode, the group is victorious in taking down another of their foes amid the chaos. Bonnie gets to use her witchy skills, but she's not the only lady who's channeling her girl power this week; Elena gets pretty tough, not just relying on a Salvatore brother to save her this time.

We're gearing up for next week's finale, and though there's some obvious setup for the next episode, there's a pretty big event that happens this week. And as usual, there's also an ample amount of great moments and funny lines. So, to get to the good, the bad, and the bloody, just keep reading.
