I thought perhaps I was the only one who found this commercial to be in horrendous taste, but apparently Gawker did, too.

David Spade, whose buddy films and general camaraderie with SNL castmate Chris Farley arguably carried the show through the mid to late 90s, doesn’t seem to be doing much these days. But he still has time to trot out the memory of Farley in a really sad and creepy way in a DirecTV commercial. Spade does a bit interspliced with Farley’s “fat guy in a little coat” performance in Tommy Boy. I caught this spot during last night’s Yankees game and was really, really surprised that it was allowed to happen. It even seemed crass to hear Spade refer to Farley as “tons of fun,” insulting a dead man out of the context of the film from over a decade ago.

Granted, the Spade/Farley stuff from the 90s hasn’t aged well, but it cracked me up when the two dominated SNL and this commercial definitely sours future watchings of Tommy Boy for me. Sad. (And shameless.)

OK Magazine is reporting that Nicolette Sheridan and David Spade have been using overt PDA (public displays of affection) to cnfirm that they are a couple.

The Desperate Housewives star was celebrating her 45th birthday at new L.A. hot spot Luau in Beverly Hills — the same place they were spotted together a few weeks ago at the grand opening — and onlookers tell OK!, “Nicolette and David were full-on making out!”

The duo arrived separately and even started the dinner at separate booths but couldn’t resist each other for long! According to witnesses, Spade winked at Sheridan and stood at her side while she blew out the candles on her cake. After that, the two retreated to a booth where they cuddled and kissed.

It wasn’t that long ago that Nicollette Sheridan was broke up with Michael Bolton, so we suppose that David Spade isn’t that fanciful an idea. Also David Spade seems to have a way with the ladiez having previously been linked to Heather Lochlear (who also has questionable taste in men) and various play boy bunnies, including Jillian Grace. Jillian Grace gave birth to a baby girl in August 2008 and Spade confirmed in September this year that the child was his.

Am I the only one who thinks this is gross? I guess she really is a Desperate Housewife.
