38 of the Funniest Tweets from Wednesday, March 20, 2024
Months after tweets were unearthed that had the timeline questioning Travis Kelce’s intelligence, the powerhouse tight end might be getting the last laugh. The three-time Super Bowl champion is in talks with Prime Video to ask one of the most iconic questions in game-show history: Are you smarter than a fifth grader? Kelce would be stepping into comedian Jeff Foxworthy’s hosting shoes (cleats?) with a retooled, celebrity-centric version of the quiz show. Should the deal go through, Kelce would join the likes of Michael Strahan and Peyton Manning, who have also taken their talents from the gridiron to prime-time game shows, hosting The $100,000 Pyramid and College Bowl respectively.
Elsewhere, Variety reported that the Neverending Story is staying true to its name, as the German classic is set for a new adaptation from the team behind The Power of the Dog and Slow Horses. Michael Ende Productions and See-Saw Films are bringing Fantastica back to the big screen with a series of movies that will provide “a fresh perspective” with “new layers and meanings” for a new generation getting acquainted with the spectacle of Ende’s prose.
Meanwhile, things on the timeline are wholly original today thanks to these hilarious posters. Today’s funniest tweets include those about a Dark Age punishment for yappers, a poly couple that’s not so secure and a mobile game taking the phrase “aim for the head” a little too literally.
