A high-energy, irreverent clip-show comedy that mines pop culture and reality TV for satirical laughs across 13 seasons of episodic entertainment.

With this satirical series, the E! Entertainment Network returns to a format they helped create with the popular '90s show Talk Soup. Only this time instead of just poking fun at talk shows, they're setting their sights on all things in entertainment, reality TV, pop culture, and politics.
