Johnny Mac’s daily comedy news previews Tony Hinchcliffe bringing Kill Tony to WrestleMania 42 tonight after night one at Dolby Live at Park MGM with WWE stars, legends, comedians, and surprise guests, noting last year’s Roast of WrestleMania felt underwhelming. Bowen Yang reflects on not seeing himself as a star at SNL, Lorne Michaels advising him not to be a “poster child for racial harmony,” and the value of bombing and moving on. The LA Times profiles Sheng Wang’s new special Purple, with Ali Wong praising his craft and process; Wang discusses touring growth, post-special writing fear, and the title’s “purplish” themes. Chelsea Handler shares her views on casual dating and marriage. Ben Carlin discusses how Stephen Colbert might end his late-night run and praises The Colbert Report.
