Gruff-around-the-edges rocker Elle King became famous for her 2014 single “Ex’s & Oh’s,” the hook of which — “My ex’s and the oh oh oh’s they haunt me” — is a quintessential “Millennial Whoop,” the most ubiquitous sound in modern pop.

This year may seem like the perfect incubator for female comedians.

Cassius is going to make Brutus an offer he can’t refuse in Shakespeare on the Lawn’s “Julius Caesar.” The classic will receive a 1940s urban spin — a gangster aesthetic — in what Jess Miller, director and second-year College student, hopes is a happy medium between relevance and distance from the politics of 2018.

An affected, sultry voice opens “Wild Honey,” as Gabriella Applebaum (Rusty Schwimmer) answers her phone sex line. On the phone — she is a blonde with 34 DDs. Off the phone — she is a redhead sniffing a sock. On the phone — she is stripping for a bath. Off the phone — she is cursing the man repossessing her car.

“Bazinga!,” theoretical physicist and arguable madman Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons) says as he sits behind a monolithic desk and wags a finger at sometimes-friend Raj Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar). “You’ve fallen victim to another one of my classic practical jokes,” he says in season three, episode four of “The Big Bang Theory.”

“What we are doing is to help the Cambodians help themselves,” then-President Richard Nixon says over the tempered pulse of “Sympathy for the Devil” by the Rolling Stones.
