According to Jimmy Kimmel, if you can do a joke sitting down, do it sitting down. During a recent visit to Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Conan O'Brien shared the sage wisdom the incumbent Oscars host and his wife, TV writer Molly McNearney, passed on to him. While Kimmel insists that he only provided “dumb tips,” O’Brien said that McNearney provided really specific, great ones. We’ll see if any of the advice paid off this Sunday when Conan helms the 2025 Oscars ceremony.

While Deadpool & Wolverine gave audiences a taste of what Channing Tatum’s Gambit was like, Lizzy Caplan is offering insight into what a standalone Gambit movie would have entailed. The Mean Girls actress told Business Insider that the scrapped movie was set to be “a ‘30s kind of screwball romantic comedy” set in New Orleans. Caplan shared that she had multiple meetings with Tatum for the “really cool” idea that was ultimately abandoned. 

There’s no need to worry about comedy being scrapped from the timeline, though. Today’s funniest tweets include those about a poster’s love, a hockey matchup fit for Broadway and a challenging Oscar ballot.
