Jean Smart | In The Doghouse

South Dakota governor Kristi Noem admitted to murdering her 14-month-old puppy, the former president is suspected of passing gas while snoozing in court, and there are new revelations from National Enquirer publisher David Pecker’s testimony in Donald Trump’s hush money trial. Jean Smart says performing real stand-up comedy is “too scary,” but she loves doing it for an audience of extras paid to laugh on the set of “Hacks,” which returns for a third season this Thursday on Max.
