The network is hoping that Facebook’s commenting and poll capabilities will help lend a fun, interactive vibe to the show. According to Variety, “Recent topics on the show have included Taylor Swift posting pics with her boyfriend Calvin Harris; the aftermath of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s breakup; and reviews of Gwen Stefani’s recently released album, This Is What the Truth Feels Like.”
