First, it was an unexpected appearance at President Donald Trump's impeachment hearings, and now it’s a barrier-breaking debut during one of the year’s most watched sporting events. Drag queens, for the first time, will appear in a Super Bowl advertisement. “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alumni Kim Chi and Miz Cracker will make history in a commercial for hummus brand Sabra during the football championship game Feb. 2, when the Kansas City Chiefs will face the San Francisco 49ers. In the teaser for the ad campaign, which the New York-based company posted on its YouTube channel last week, Miz Cracker clumsily attempts...

Watching the livestream of Monty Python's last ever performance on GOLD, it was impossible not to experience a tingle of sadness. So this was it, the final performance by the most influential comedy troupe of all time.

Monty Python and "Spamalot" are heading for Chicago. In just three weeks the new musical opens at the Shubert Theatre for a one month stand but Wednesday morning the cast of the Goofball Musical Comedy met the media. ABC 7's Frank Mathie was there to see if total silliness on the screen can transfer to total meaningless fluff on the stage. It's a good cast, David Hyde Pierce of "Frasier" fame, Hank Azaria, the voice of many different Simpson's characters, and the star of many films Tim Curry, he's King Arthur.
