ZACH GALIFIANAKIS

Louie Anderson, whose four-decade career as a comedian and actor included his unlikely and Emmy-winning performance as mom to twin adult sons in the TV series “Baskets,” has died at age 68.

A spokesman for Louie Anderson says the actor and comedian is being treated for cancer in a Las Vegas hospital.

As President Joe Biden wraps up his first year in the White House, he has held fewer news conferences than any of his five immediate predecessors at the same point in their presidencies, and has taken part in fewer media interviews than any of his recent predecessors.

This week’s new entertainment releases include a new album from rapper Roddy Ricch, a prequel to the TV series “Yellowstone” on Paramount+ and Italian filmmaker Paolo Sorrentino's “The Hand of God.”.

Netflix via CNN(CNN) - "Between Two Ferns: The Movie" is perhaps inevitably best consumed in bite-sized bits, bringing back Zach Galifianakis from his popular web series as the worst (or depending on one's point of view, best) celebrity interviewer ever. The movie's conceit is hit-miss, but when it works -- yielding deadpan insults and pained expressions -- there are enough laughs to make digging up "Ferns" look like a fine idea. Again playing a twisted version of himself, Galifianakis is introduced at a North Carolina public-access station, very uncomfortably interviewing Matthew McConaughey. What ensues, then, is basically a standard road movie, interspersed with a star-studded array of "Ferns" interviews. "Between Two Ferns: The Movie" premieres Sept. 20 on Netflix.
