During one hilarious part of the special, a caller asks “Dr. Phil” about his girlfriend who he says “thinks she’s a psychic after taking one online test and now she’s reading my energy every single morning.”

“This is the easiest assessment I’ve ever had to do,” “Dr. Phil” responds. “Break up with her through a text. No one’s psychic. Not even Dionne Warwick was psychic – and she was a psychic.”

Debuting on Netflix on Nov. 19, the untitled “Adam Ray’s Dr. Phil Comedy Special” will also see Ray-as-Phil interview special guests including Patton Oswalt, Jay Pharoah and “Gollum,” and get to know the audience through silly questions and games.

"Saturday Night Live" has been going on for 50 seasons now, so they've had their fair share of bad hosts. Sometimes the host is simply not that comfortable with live acting -- looking at you, January Jones or Jacob Elordi -- and sometimes the host has the bad luck of getting a cold at the worst possible moment, like what seemingly happened to poor Jean Smart in the season 50 premiere. Other times the host is bad because, well, they're just kind of a bad person.

Case in point: Steven Seagal, who hosted in April 1991 and helped deliver an episode so terrible that it got him banned from the show forever. Over three decades later, most "SNL" fans are happy to just pretend the episode never happened, because ite was a trainwreck in a way that wasn't even that fun or interesting.

The first three episodes of Invincible Season 3 will be available to stream exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories beginning on Thursday, February 6, 2025, with additional episodic drops available every Thursday through March 13.

The first two seasons of the animated series received “Certified Fresh” rankings on Rotten Tomatoes and was awarded Rotten Tomatoes‘ Golden Tomato Award for Best Animated Series in 2023.

Based on Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic book series, Invincible follows 17-year-old Mark Grayson as he inherits his father’s superpowers and sets out to become Earth’s greatest defender, only to discover the job is more challenging than he could have ever imagined.

“Invincible” Season 3 officially has a premiere date.

Amazon Prime Video has announced that the animated series will return on Feb. 6. The first three episodes of the third season will drop on that date, with new episodes debuting weekly on Thursdays thereafter through March 13.

Amazon has also released a teaser for the new season, which sees Mark (Steven Yeun) getting grilled at Burger Mart by Cecil (Walton Goggins) about his lack of preparations for future Viltrumite attacks. He also pokes fun at the fact the show took an extended break in the middle of its second season.

“And don’t even get me started on your little four month vacation right in the middle of things,” Cecil says. “We all sure loved that.”

The full teaser can be seen below.

“Invincible” is based on the comic book series of the same name by Robert Kirkman. Per the official logline, the series follows “17-year-old Mark Grayson,...

Prime Video has set Thursday, February 6, 2025 for the Season 3 premiere of Invincible, its adult-animated superhero series from Skybound Entertainment and Amazon MGM Studios. We’re also getting a first look at Season 3 in the Burger Mart-inspired teaser trailer which you can watch above.

The third season will launch with the first three episodes on February 6 exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide, with subsequent episodes dropping every Thursday through March 13.

Based on Robert Kirkman’s comic book series, Invincible follows 17-year-old Mark Grayson, voiced by Steven Yeun, as he inherits his father’s superpowers and sets out to become Earth’s greatest defender, only to discover the job is more challenging than he could have ever imagined. Everything changes as Mark is forced to face his past, and his future, while discovering how much further he’ll need to go to protect the people he loves.

There was a significant gap (over two years) between the first and second seasons of Prime Video's Invincible animated series, but we had been assured that the wait for season 3 wouldn't be as long, and that's now been confirmed thanks to a leaked teaser.

Invincible will return to our screens on February 6, 2025 - and there will be no pesky mid-season break!

We have no idea how long this promo will stay up (and wouldn't be surprised if an official version was released fairly soon), but it finds a now 19-year-old Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) meeting with Cecil Stedman (Walton Goggins) in a café in a similar set-up to the season 2 teaser with Allen the Alien.

Cecil is not happy (for a change) with Mark taking a lengthy break from crime-fighting, and tells the young hero that he needs more training if he hopes to face the oncoming Viltrumite threat. It's a fun teaser,...

Bill “I’m not addicted!” Maher likes to blaze it up with guests on his Club Random podcast but not everyone wants to partake in his particular strain of cannabis. “When I did Bill Maher, I’m like, ‘I cannot start with your weed,’” David Spade told Jay Pharoah and Dana Carvey on the Fly on the Wall podcast. “I haven’t smoked in a long time, and I’m not jumping ahead to this vortex. So I just drank Tito’s.”

But Spade understands what Maher is after when he gets his guests toasted. “It’s a good, good scam because it gets them off guard,” he explained. “When I’m baked, forget it. If I’m drunk, I sound kind of stupid and I go on and on, but it’s within the realm of some thought. If it’s strong weed, I have no idea.”

For the first few decades of Saturday Night Live, breaking out on the show was a ticket to movie stardom for comics like John Belushi, Eddie Murphy, Mike Myers and Will Ferrell. In the 2000s, the path led to Emmy Award-winning comedies for Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Andy Samberg. In recent years, however, the big reward for a long run on SNL seems to be a job as a game show host.

"So what kinda gal are you lookin' for?"

After hearing the news, his fiancé leaves him, then he meets Kate using a dating service that matches people by their death dates, all while being stalked by a disturbed pimp.
