Last Friday, Ryan Seacrest, 48, marked the end of an era and finally said goodbye to his Live co-host, Kelly Ripa, 52, after hosting the morning show for almost six years. Before he made his official departure, the American Idol host had a special surprise in store for his replacement, Mark Consuelos, 52, who just made his big hosting debut on the brand-new Live with Kelly and Mark on Monday.

In an exclusive interview with People magazine, Consuelos revealed the heartwarming parting gift the former co-host left to happily welcome him to the Live fam: a pic of Steve McQueen (with a handwritten note).

“He left all his furniture, which is amazing,” the All My Children alum told the outlet. “He left me a beautiful hand-written note with a gorgeous photograph of Steve McQueen. It’s…

Hosting guests always comes with some level of stress. There’s all the extra cleaning and preparations beforehand, all the energy (and money!) spent making sure the guest is comfortable and happy, and the strange feeling of needing to tip-toe around your own house. One woman joined the Reddit “Am I The A—hole?” thread to talk about her mother-in-law. As soon as we see something about an in-law, our blood pressure rises, so when we saw that this was about hosting a MIL, we started panicking. OP explained that her MIL lives about eight hours away.

The reviews for Mark Consuelos’ first episode as co-host of Live are in – and they’re not good! Kelly Ripa, 52, bid a tearful farewell to her work husband Ryan Seacrest, 48, on Friday, April 14th, and welcomed her real-life husband Mark Consuelos, 52, on Monday, April 17th. Mark *officially* replaced Ryan as the show’s co-host on Monday after filling in for him occasionally in the past; however, many fans weren’t keen on the Live with Kelly and Mark first episode, with one viewer calling it “painful,” and another saying it was “horrid,” while another less-than-optimistic viewer predicted it was “the beginning of the end.” Yikes!

Slaying zombies in Dead Island 2 is fun but what’s even more fun is doing it with friends. Nothing more satisfying than seeing a poor helpless zombie ping-ponging between you and your buddies as you take turns hitting it. We are here to explain co-op works and how you can play with friends in Dead Island 2.

Dead Island 2 co-op explained

Unlike the original Dead Island games, Dead Island 2, unfortunately, dials back the player count a bit. Instead of 4 players, you can only play co-op with up to 3 people now. This was mainly done to balance things in terms of difficulty and not make stuff too chaotic on the screen which is usually the case with 4 player co-op.

You and your friends can all pick different characters or Slayers as they are called in-game so everyone has…
