Adam Sandler News

One of my first jobs out of school was playing a rotating succession of floozies - some dumb, some angry, all crazy - on MTV's first-ever nonmusical program, Remote Control.

Ken Ober, a brassy comedian best known as the host of the 1980s-era MTV game show "Remote Control," was found dead on Sunday in his home in Santa Monica, Calif.

Share + Nov 17, 2009 8:39 am US/Central LOS ANGELES Dennis Cole, a 70s era heart throb and one time husband to Jaclyn Smith, and Ken Ober, host of the 80s era MTV game show "Remote Control," which helped launch the careers of Adam Sandler and Colin Quinn, have died.

Just at the time when an "Apatonian Film" began to take on certain connotations - gross-out humour, pot smoke, full-frontal male nudity - writer-director Judd Apatow changed the formula with Funny People , his autobiographical third feature out this weekend on DVD.

Back in 1987, MTV's lineup was still heavily populated with music videos. However, they had one lone game show, Remote Control .

Ken Ober, who was found dead Sunday in Santa Monica, Calif., at 52, is being remembered as the brash and groundbreaking host of MTV's "Remote Control" and key boost to the careers of comics from Adam Sandler to Denis Leary.

In just a few short years, the movie-to-musical transition has gone from exception to rule - and now there are adaptations that strain credulity even as they earn credibility with audiences and critics alike.

Now this is a comedy I can be excited about! It's that time of year again, when all the studios start releasing early teasers for their big summer movies.
