Johnny Mac previews Stephen Colbert’s guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live and notes Kimmel will again tape a week of shows at the Brooklyn Academy of Music Sept. 28–Oct. 2. Eric Idle says “Python is dead,” rejects any Monty Python reunion (even without John Cleese), and hints at deeper issues amid past disputes over money and management, while Greg Daniels tells Variety an Office reunion isn’t needed because the ending worked. Saturday Night Live Season 52 premieres Sept. 26 with host Jalen Brunson, followed by Dakota Johnson Oct. 3 and Shane Gillis Oct. 10. Other updates include Shane Gillis being spotted in Green Bay, Jo Koy’s new special Blue in the Face, how Theo Von landed a Morgan Wallen preshow video, three new Drunk History episodes on Comedy Central’s YouTube, releases from Cameron Esposito and Vanessa Gonzalez, and a plug for Chris Fleming at The Largo.
