Tonight, we introduce you to a dude whos become the definition of indemand. You can see his latest work in the new carrie remake and also in the new comic series afterlife with archie. For more, heres tonights last call spotlight. Comic books have always been a part of my life. I mean i have a like vivid memories of being a kid like seven or eight years old and going to summer camp. Wed always stop at the local 711. So i remember buying slurpies. I remember buying chilicheese dogs. I remember buying comic books and then going home and just reading them and eating the chilicheese dogs. My name is Roberto Aguirre sacasa. Im a writer on glee, spiderman turn off the dark on broadway. Currently, i am writing the afterlife with archie comic book horror series and i wrote the remake of carrie. When i was a kid i read all kinds of comics. I read horror comics. I read superhero comics. And i read archie comics. One of the projects that im working on right now is the archie zombie comic book afterlife with archie. This is basically the Zombie Apocalypse starts in riverdale. Which is of course where archie and betty and veronica and all his friends live. [ sound of speeding car ] [ screeching tires ] the first thing you see is you see a teenager running in the dark towards a creepy house at the edge of town and you discover that that is archies best friend, jughead jones and he has in his arms his dog, hot dog who has been hit and it dead and bleeding. He is taking the dog to the house of sabrina the teenage witch. Sabrina, even though she knows she shouldnt, she steals the necronomicon from her library and performs a ritual to bring hot dog back. But when he comes back, the dog is not who he used to be. Something happened in the spell and hes infected and then he bites jughead who then shows up at the halloween dance and everyone thinks hes dressed as a zombie, but in fact, hes actually a zombie. Its definitely comes from, for me, a huge love of the archie comic book characters and im a huge, huge horror fan. You know, theres such a tradition of teenage horror movies. I thought there was something really cool about taking these archetypes and putting them in a basically a horror movie scenario. I think one of the challenges we had was to make sure that even though we were telling a horror movie, we wanted to keep the characters true to their essence. And i think weve done that so thats why i think the fans are really, really responding to it. I think its the highest selling archie comic book that theyve published in i dont know how many like decades. Ma, if i concentrate hard enough i can make things move. One of the projects im really excited about right now is the new carrie movie which just opened in theaters. I thought, is this something we need to tell again . And the truth is, when i went back to the novel and reread the novel, it seemed so, almost prescient in terms of things like violence in schools. In terms of bullying. In terms of cyber bullying. And its one of these stories that i think kind of almost every generation has or needs its own version of the carrie story. And it did feel like there were ways to update in that kind of very organic fashion. Putting in stuff like social media. Putting in stuff about religious fanaticism. That felt like it could enrich the story as opposed to, were just forcing this stuff upon the story. Go to your closet. No. No. Get off me. Momma. Come on. No. No. You pray little girl. Pray for forgiveness. Mommy, let me go. Let me out. Mom mom mom god you suck i think that teenagers and horror go together for a lot of reasons. I think for a lot of kids, their teenage years are probably the most kind of scary. Your bodys changing. Youre figuring out who you are. Youre figuring out your place in the world. Thats a really vulnerable, scary time for a lot of kids. Ryan murphy, whos one of the cocreators of glee and my boss, he always says that glee is a lot like horror because musicals are moments of extreme emotion that break out into songs. And in horror movies, extreme emotions which break out into screams. So that the line separating teenage stuff and horror stuff is actually really, really thin. And i think you definitely see that in carrie. I mean the last act is almost like an opera. When shes at prom and everything breaks loose. And i think in afterlife its no coincidence that the Zombie Apocalypse erupts at the annual halloween dance. Carrie has been around for 40 years. Archies been around for 70 years. So its fun to get a chance to put a different spin on those stories. But yeah, maybe i should take a less sacred cow the next time. Carson carrie and afterlife with archie are both out now.

It is october 11. What are we doing here . First of all, if you dont know about this video we are going to tell you about you are in the dark. We didnt know anything about this video. But it is sweeping not just the nation but the world. Its called what does the fox say. What does the fox say what does the fox say . Oh. Okay. So this viral video has more than 100 million hits and we dont get it. We dont know why. The norwegian brothers are here. I bet them downstairs. They are adorable. They are crazy. I met their brother. And he is wow. He is is a scream. This song was supposed to be a joke. It was pay back for what they had done the record company. They tried to write the worlds worst song and it has become a hit. Were going to talk about all what does the fox say. That means there is going to be skrun chees. She is she goes to the beat of her own drum. She seems perfect for him. Look at how we have to get the tight shot. That is sad what you just did in there. Some people have a problem with scrunchiies. I think they are genius. Can you hold it back . You rocked it. You have to also have your scrunchie and your fanny pack at the same time. Hello. You do this and im practically royalty. I cant believe you gist did that. I know how to do it. I like it. So this was announced. I cant believe it. Im recently botoxed. Just announced a 95 scrunchie. They are trying to make it trendy. But look, its not cool. If you love sex in the city, there was a whole bit on scrunchies. Here is my crucial point. No woman who works at w magazine would be caught dead at a hip downtown restaurant wearing a scrunchie. Man its a good thing i came along. You may know the ferllas, but i know the ladies. You dont know this lady and im not giving up my scrunchie. The number one run is when you put a rubber band in your hair it leaves a mark. These dont. Thats why we like them. And another great trick. If youre having a great hair day and youre not going to wash it, do this. Im going to show you. This is how you do it. Im old. I know things. You do this. You do this. You do this and you do that. Like that. And the next morning you look like that. I like it. Does it really work . It works like crazy. I like it. I just showed some black spanx. As if i dont know. If ewe ear dating and youre doing it online, they have an app that they want you to know the personality of the person youre choosing where theyre blurring the face of your prospective date. So that youre not youre not, you know, distracted by how handsome or unattractive they are. You get to know them as a person. What do you think about that . Well, what do i think . If heaven forbid frank were not in my life anymore and i was a free woman, it is the last thing in the world i would ever do. I dont know if its because im generational or i dont know. Fuzzy looks good. I do look darn good that way. You know what, i dont want to i dont i dont like all that stuff. I want to meet somebody. In person. Im not saying i want to meet thats what you said. If i were free, and i cant even imagine being on the dating scene again, i would want it to happen like some enchanted evening. It doesnt happen like that. It happened for you. I know. But i went to an event and it was accidental. Thats what im saying, hoda. It may have seemed accidental to you, but might have been that divine appointment. I dont think there are any accidents. Exactly. If youre trying to maneuver and manufacture something that happened, i think it is going to i dont know. It seems phony to me. Yeah. I agree with that. I think sometimes when you feel like youve been to the bars, youve been to the church, to this place and that place, you get everywhere. Not there. The bars and the churches. Thats new orleans in a nutshell. The bars and the churches. All right, so, okay, a lot of kids get their high school or junior high or whatever picture taken and you look at it and you say i cant believe thats going to live in the yearbook forever. Now you wont believe this. They have a whole photo shopping thing in place for yearbook pictures. Most of the schools are offering touchups so there are packages. One package gets rid of, like, your pimples or whatever. The other package does you like the full monty, better hair and you get different clothes. Full monty means naked, hoda. Thats not what i meant. Gets rid of braces, a tie. It is not a true representative of how you looked when you were young, such as this shot. Okay. You know what . Im tired of that. We wanted to have all the fun. If you dont have the glasses. Oh, thats scarier. There is a little more. If we gave you your now hair. As long as you dont remove the necklace. I love that necklace. I think it is a little weird that people are redoing everything. It is not authentic, you know . I had most of my High School Yearbook pictures were hideous, terrible, most of them. They looked like that and got progressively worse. Careful. They werent great, but so what . The fact is you can smile. My mother had my you know, you just laugh at it. Speaking of laughing, guess what . Time for friday funny. Funny. Better be good. This joke sent in by facebook fan kim stoler from niagara falls. This is going to require a little work on my part, okay . The three little pigs went out to dinner one night. The waiter came by and took their drink orbit. I want a sprite, said the first little piggy. I want a coke, said the second little piggy. I want beer, said the third little piggy. Hope i can remember what order i did the voices in. After serving the drinks, the waiter asked for their dinner orders. I want steak, said the first little piggy. I want salad, said the second little piggy. I want beer said the third little piggy, lots and lots of beer. Finally, if they wanted any dessert. I want pie, said the first little piggy. I want cheesecake, said the second little piggy. I want beer, lots and lots of beer said the third little piggy. The waiter said, pardon me for asking, but why have you ordered only beer all evening long . Third little piggy said, well, someone it has to go wee, wee, wee all the way home. A lot of buildup. An awful lot of work for such a very little in return. All right. Im deeply grateful. It is time for our johnson baby now where we celebrate new moms and adorable new additions to their families. First up, a baby born in new port beach, california, his name is malek abbas hodroj.

Congrats to all of our babies. If you want a chance for your baby to appear on our todays johnson baby of the week, go to klgandhoda. Com for all the details. That does the fox say . Well meet the duo behind this viral hit. Theyre a lot of fun. What are they doing . Theyre crooning. They have a talk show in norway. And over the last five weeks their music video, the fox, has been viewed more than 100 million times on youtube. Its ridiculous. Theyre currently number six on the billboard top 100. And it was all by accident. If you dont know them by now, youre about to become very hip when you find out about the wacky norwegian brothers. Bard and vegard. Yeah. They are known as youre bard . Im bard. Everyone says you cant say youre bored in america. I try to say i havent chosen. I havent decided. Fabio is taken. I may go for fabio. There is a normal name in norway called odd. Odd and bored. We have a friend. This is odd and hes bored. Well, we want to say we want you to feel at home. We have a bar in our studio. Thats great. And we also have a server who wants to take very good care of you. Yeah. You sound more german, actually. How do i say it in norwegian. Yeah. Here comes gerard. Yes look at that. What does the fox say. What does the fox say, gerard . I dont know what a fox says. Gerard, please smile. Okay. Look at gerard. Thank you so much, gerard. Do you want to hold on to these or the funny thing is you call us crazy, but look at you guys. Look at us. We love guys like you. Tell us how the whole thing happened. Hoda loves this. Just a minute. This is actually wine. Yes. It started out as we make skits and for your show. For our show. A talk show. We do different kinds of things, hidden camera looks so great. Slurp it back, baby. You know what this is . This is success. Actually, it is gerards urine specimen. Whatever. And what is this . Dont ask. Okay. Gerard, thats enough. So, okay, so talk show so we actually got a request from a super producer duo from norway called stargate, they work here around new york. And they have lots of billboard hits with rihanna and with beyonce, i think. Beyonce. And so they asked us to do a sort of private favor for them to make a mocumentary for them. We said, can we ask a favor in return . Im just drinking. You should listen. It is really exciting. Hes going to suck blowing bubbles now. And then we asked for a favor in return, can we make a song together. They were like, sure, sure. And then we figured out if we are going to make a hit song out of this, it would seem kind of pathetic, because were comedians and shouldnt do hit songs. So we decided to make an antihit so we could come back to our talk show and say, folks, you know, we had this opportunity, we had stargate and blew it. We couldnt think of anything else other than what the fox says. What . What the fox says. In norwegian we are actually what the fox says. But the idea sort of back fired on us because here you are, major hits. Were you surprised . 100 million is ridiculous on any standard. It is kind of it is the first time i actually heard the number right now and it is kind of austin powers number, isnt it . 100 million youtube hits. Yeah. It is really strange. So we want to know about your love lives. Are you taken . Taken. Yeah, were taken. For now. For now. Were taken in norway. Oh those kind of guys. Territorial licensing. Are either of you married .

Were back on this try day friday with more today. Relationships can be tricky. If you had a hard time understanding the opposite sex, we enlisted some help. Back by popular demand to answer your question, two people with a lot to say. Elles advice columnist e. Jean carroll and matthew hussey. You are our favorite odd couple. We love having you guys on. Youre our favorite odd couple. Thank you. Thank you for coming off the mountain to be with us. Chris writes in, what should you do when you want to see and address issues in your marriage but your spouse thinks everything is fine but the whole situation is making you miserable. What to do . I think you should get out of the house, get out of the neighborhood, pack a picnic, a loaf of bread, a jug of wine, head out, go for a hike, spread a blanket in the grass and then tell him what youre thinking. Not what youre feeling, tell him what youre thinking, let him hear it. If all goes well, you can seal the deal on the blanket. Matthew . Okay. For me, the tone of this question says it all. When she says, im miserable, and he doesnt know it, that doesnt suggest to me a problem in the relationship thats a woman too afraid to confront the problem. And the problem with that is those types of people shes like forget the wine. Forget the picnic, forget the blanket. Even if i gave her the courage to go and say something, the moment hell do what a guy does, shell be too weak to stand up to that. She has to figure out her relationship with herself before she confronts him. That involves core confidence. Im not going to have my selfesteem tied to losing this man. Thats why they dont say something, theyre afraid of loss. If i can say it is more detrimental to my life to be in a relationship of pain than it is to be alone, now shes going to go and get the things she wants. That was good. Even e. Jean is impressed. I think matthew is a secret woman. You understand women. Deeply. Thank you. Sheryl, is it okay to date your exs best friend . If the breakup was clean, you respect one another, and the guy is hot, yes. If he has called you in the last six months crying, no. If you have called him in the last six months for a booty call, no. I like that the principles are based on how hot he is. The fact is, firstly, what you cant find another one another guy among the 3 billion guys in the world that is not his best friend. If you cant if hes the love of your life, go for it. If this is a whim because youre lonely or in pain or trying to get back at the guy, dont do it. God forbid youre on the receiving end of that one day. There arent that many good guys out there. There are not matthew, you are one in a trillion. I know that, but thats very different from saying there are no great guys out there. Cane has a question. Is it appropriate to expect a date to pay for most or all of the nights out or at what point in the date process should i begin reaching for the check to share some of the responsibilities. It is not about finances. It is about getting lucky. If a man asks you out and you go to dinner and you like him and you think later down the road at some point youre going to go to bed with him, he pays. If he asks you out, you go to dinner and you dont like him and you know never, ever, ever are you going to get in bed with this guy, you offer to pay and then he pays. Like being a hooker . But the point is, that was about the thats not about the first date. Thats about youre a few dates in, what do you do . Do you keep letting him pay . I dont like to let a lady pay, no. But heres the point. A lady shouldnt expect it. I think a man should pay but a lady shouldnt expect it. A lady can pay by inviting him to her apartment for dinner. Not for that. You pervert, no. Just to make dinner for him. Every man loves that. I think it is tough for women in the position that theyre in today to want equality in every other area, and then in a relationship say, but i dont want to contribute in that area. I think that sends out a confused message. I think for women especially since you guys have more money than us now. So for most women in that position, once they get into the relationship, if they want to be there, then they should be contributing. By the way, it is a guys prerogative, if he wants to insist he pays for everything, she has the choice to let him. I think the expectation is what ruins relationships. I think it changes the dynamic of the relationship. If you dont like a guy, dont pick up the check. Okay. If you dont like the guy, dont pick up the check.
