Caloroga Shark Media. Hey there, I’m Johnny Mack. I did the Super Bowl preview yesterday and Saturday’s episode. That way, it didn’t get immediately dated, so if you want to check that out. But here I am with today’s Daily Comedy News.
The question will Will Smith slap Ricky Gervase? Now you’re like Johnny Mack, Why would Will Smith slap Ricky Gervase? That seems like a mean thing to do. Well. Ricky commented on Jaden Smith’s castle shaped hat that Jaden wore to the twenty twenty five Grammy Awards.
You may have seen a picture of this on social media. It was a little weird. Derves was on Twitter and he responded to a photo of Jaden in the attention grabbing hat, and Jervas wrote, maybe he’s bald like his mom. Watch out, you might get slapped. Be careful.
Hank Azaria says he’s worried AI could replace the voices of the Simpsons in the future. Hank, I have news for you. They could do that. Now need proof. This is actually Ai, Johnny Max speaking right now.
Yeah, Hank, you see AI is pretty good? Now? Did that sound perfect? No? I spent ten seconds, making that if I actually massaged a little, it would sound even more like live me.
Anyway. Hank has expressed fear to The New York Times that AI could replace him as the voice of several characters on The Simpsons. Hank voices several characters, including Mo, the Bartender and Chief Wigham thirty six seasons in. Hank is aware that AI has a lot of material to pull from him. He told The Times, I imagine that soon enough, artificial intelligence will be able to recreate the sounds of the more than one hundred voices I created for characters for The Simpsons almost over four decades.
Being able to bring back Ai uh pooh, it makes me sad to think about it. Not to mention just seems plain wrong to steal my likeness or sound or anyone else’s. In my case, AI could have access to thirty six years of Mo, the permanently disgruntled Bartender. He’s appeared in just about every episode of the Simpsons. He’s been terrified and love hitting the head, most often in a state of bitter hatred.
I’ve laughed as Mo in dozens of ways. By now, I’ve probably sighed his Mo one hundred times of training AI. That’s a lot of work to do. Look, Hank relaxed. The various guilds would never let the creators get away with that.
Don’t worry about it. Does the technology exist? Oh? It exists. I just played AI Johnny Mack for you.
It’s there. And again, if you give me six hundred plus episodes of The Simpsons to train the AI and then you actually sat there and worked at it. Oh, they could do this later today if they want to. But again, the guilds and all that, it’s not gonna happen. Now, might you sign your rights so you get paid or your estate gets paid?
James Earl Jones did that. James Earl Jones is going to continue to be the voice of Darth Vader. James Earl Jones is dead, but they worked it out the estate. Could that happen? Hank?
Sure? As Arias said, there’s so much of who I am that goes into creating a voice. How can the computer capture all that? What would the lack of humanness sound like? It’s a mother bar tender Hank, stop you sound crazy.
How big will the differences be? I honestly don’t know. I think it’ll be enough at least in the near term, that will notice something is off in the same way that we noticed something’s missing a subpar film or TV show. Chief wakems not that deep a character, dude. It adds up to a sense that we’re watching isn’t real, you know.
I mean if I put on The Simpsons and I was like, you know what, this doesn’t seem real, it would totally destroy the Simpsons. Hank, you sound crazy, and it’s not gonna happen. The unions of the Guilds or whoever controls such things, They’re not gonna let this happen. You’re freaking out about nothing, and you don’t need to pay attention to it. Believeability has earned through craftsmanship with good storytelling and good performances, good seminatography and good directing and a good script and good music and Shohnnie Mackwillad and some good AI that has cloned your voice.
Kim Kardashian is upset with Tony Hingecliff. During the roast of Tom Brady, Tony suggested that Kim is a whore. There’s a preview for the next episode of The Kardashians, which will air this week. In the clip that was released. Kim’s friend said that the jokes made at Kim’s expense during the roast were so effed up.
Kim admitted she was surprised the jokes weren’t more original. It’s like the easiest joke they would have said that about anyone. The experience made never ever want to sign up for a roast, and says, am I supposed to sit there and be like, how innovative? You called me a whore? Chelsea Handler spoke to the Hollywood Reporter and they’re like, hey, Chelsea Handler, you know there’s late night talk shows are back.
Mlanie Taylor, you want to come back and do one? Chelsea said, I’m not interested being tethered to a studio five nights a week. I have too much freedom in my life to go back to that Melanie’s doing once a week. But I love interviewing people. I’m a good listener, and that’s all you really need to be a good interviewer.
So many talk show hosts have been terrible listeners. They ask how’s your summer, Chelsea while looking over your shoulder and reading a blue card, like what hello, I’m right here. I’ll never not be curious, though it would have to be a perfect set of circumstances where it was once a week or specials like Oprah Rii Shafir. It’s told Fox News the world is better than people are giving a credit for. Almost everybody is not racist, Almost everybody is not a dim wit.
People are generally kind to each other and hold the door open for each other. Or He filmed his recent special in DC and said that he picked DC because I wanted to do this get away from politics, view that there’s good in everyone. My message was like back, it was Biden when he was whatever, and I’m like, Biden made you realize that your father’s in pretty good mental shape, and Trump made women come together. Those are good things. The world is way better than your industry gives us credit for.
It’s actually amazing. And all you see when you see the news is how terrible and how the sky’s falling, and they actually go outside and everyone’s actually kind of nice to each other and friendly. I don’t know if you know this Saturday Night Live is fifty years old and they’re celebrating and we’re gonna talk the heck out of this this week. I’m already sick of it. Snler is to co host the Today’s Show with Jenna and Friends all next week.
The co host will be Amy Poehler and a guest ire mikey Day, Cherry o Terry, and Chloe Feineman. They’ll all co host the fourth hour of the Today Show with Jenna.
Meanwhile, NBC going all in on this SNL writers will guest on Late Night with…
Paula Pell, James Anderson, Emily Spivey, and Harper Steele are all names that will be familiar to longtime SNL fans. I’ll take your word for it. Luckily this article explained to who they are. Paula Pell is probably best known to most as one of the stars of Girls five EVA. She created the characters Debbie Downer, the Coulps, Justin Timberlakes, Omletville mascot, and the Spartan Cheerleaders.
That was a period of SNL I did not like, and I could go the rest of my life without ever watching Debbie Downer the Spartan Cheerleaders again. James Anderson wrote for SNL for twenty years from twenty to twenty twenty. He came up with the Californians another sketch. This is the period. I have no interest in this period.
Emily Spivey wrote from twenty one to twenty, frequently collaborating with Pohlar. This article did not mention what sketches she came up with. Harper Steele wrote for thirteen years, starting in ninety five, and served as the show’s co headwriter from four to eight. She wrote The Ladies Man with Tim Meadows, Astronaut Jones with Tracy Morgan, and Oops, I crap my pants. You know Harper from the recent documentary Will and Harper which he’s the newly transitioned steel travel cross country with her old friend Will Ferrell.
Also on set this week, Bill Murray guess on Tuesday Night. And there is apparently a whole old business for Jimmy fallon children’s books. He’s got a new book coming out. It’s called Papa Doesn’t Do Anything. It’ll come out this spring.
It’s the fifth and a fifth. I said fifth. It’s the fifth. Fifth, you’re not miss hearing me. The fifth in a family series that began in twenty fifteen with Your Baby’s First Word Will be Data twenty seventeen, Everything Is Mama, twenty nineteen, This is Baby and twenty twenty two’s Nana Loves You More.
The Papa in the fifth book refers to Grandpa by the way. The book tells the story of a child who believes that their grandfather doesn’t do anything. Jimmy Fallon tell people this book is a tribute to the dads and grandpa’s in our lives and what they’ve done for all of us, and the title will be sure to get a laugh if they receive it as a gift. There’s a market for this. Huh.
This does not include Jimmy Fallon’s recent five More Sleeps Till Christmas and five More Sleeps Till Halloween. So there’s a market for seven Jimmy Fallon children’s books. Oh way, sure, that’s your company us for today. I’d I don’t know anything else, saying bye.
