Host Conor Knighton and comedic crew wickedly skewer the week in media. Check out "Dr. Laura," getting real on "Larry King," Spike Lee ripping reality television, a dirty Scream Queen and %^&$# Shatner says.

This brand new episode features Erin Gibson and her lady friends on an "Eat, Pray Love" outing, Sergio Cilli staging a Soulja Boy "Music Intervention" and a shirtless edition of Brett Erlich's "Viral Video Film School." Plus, Conor channels Justin Bieber.

infoMania is a half-hour satirical news show that airs on Current TV. The show puts a comedic spin on the 24-hour chaos and information overload brought about by the constant bombardment of the media. Hosted by Conor Knighton and co-starring Brett Erlich, Erin Gibson, Ben Hoffman, Bryan Safi and Sergio Cilli, the show airs on Thursdays at 10/9c on Current TV.

    • Erin girl, you really have to drop the giggly schoolgirl crap. Instead of some enlightening exposure on how "Eat Pray Love" cashes off women and their never-ending quest for food, self-finding experiences and naked James Franco, it's just you and your vapid friends sitting on a couch or in a car, talking about some awful chick flick. I really hate to say this and pull a jaded comparison, but we never had this crap when Sarah was around. Jesus Christ, be a little more serious and leave the funny shit to Brett and Conor. You're awesome, but this segment should have been titled "Insipid Lady" rather than "Modern Lady".

    • Baklavacalypse!! haha I would totally watch that (at least once) if it really featured you guys :) Loved Conor's mustache. And Brett's "it's all Greek to me!" And "take your dough and go." WIN.

    • I usually don't mind Modern Lady, but this week's segment was really bad. I was expecting to watch an informative piece about Eat Pray Love and how it appeals to women. Instead I got a bunch of uninteresting girls cooing and spewing generalities with nothing smart or informative to say. Way to drop the ball Erin.

    • have y'all seen the new lunesta commercial on TV? its RIDICULOUS, the whole add is almost all filled with warnings about the side effects, and the side effects will most likely make you crazy, or worse! i would love it if you did a bit about really scary pharmaceutical commercials - that would be a hit!! i haven't found the full add on youtube with the long disclaimer, but its the one with the midnight butterfly.
      also, erin's modern lady was awesome this segment - really liked the new angle.

    • 8 day's later.....Still try'in to watch last week's episope. Just droped in to say FUCK YOU, I could be enjoying a new Sunday morning regimin, "watchin infomania" Just that since I first enjoyed an episode several weeks back, I cannot watch.. actually I'm not allowed to watch, by the fasciest in charge. In fact the only reason you simminons are justyifyed in the remittence you recieve now is that you are workin for the man in order to piss "me" off. Be sure to enjoy you fiecies. Shit fuck, ciggarett, Country.

    • Guys, fix the stream. Give us back the progressive one instead of the crappy RTMP. Most of the time, it's unwatchable from Europe (buffers every 10 seconds or so). :(

    • baklavacalypse was my fav! I loved it! It had the perfect setup too! You guys really setup those skit cuts really well this episode. I don't know if it was the best so far for setups, but it was definitely up there.

    • I'm sorry, I tried to like Erin Gibson, but her segments make me look blankly at the screen waiting for something funny to happen.
