Feuds as wild as the jungle. The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has never been afraid to call out celebrities for their actions towards wildlife and pets.

NBCUniversal wants to get more eyes on Pete Davidson’s Peacock series Bupkis.

Pete Davidson has told PETA to “suck my dick” in an explicit voicemail after he was criticised by the animal rights organisation for buying, and not adopting, a dog.In a voicemail obtained by TMZ, the comedian calls out PETA executive Daphna Nachminovitch and explains that he is “severely allergic” to dogs apart from one specific breed, a cavapoo. The dog he purchased was also for his mother, whose previous dog had recently passed away.“So why don’t you do your research before you fucking create news stories for people,” Davidson said, adding: “Fuck you, and suck my dick.”In PETA’s original statement released on Monday (June 5), Nachminovitch said: “It’s tragic that Pete didn’t seek out a borough-born mutt from a city animal shelter, because a scrappy New Yorker with charm, personality, and unconventional handsomeness could have been his perfect match.”Following Davidson’s voicemail, the organisation told TMZ: “If Pete had done his research, he would know that there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, that at least a quarter of dogs in shelters are purebreds, and that Petfinder has listings for homeless dogs of every breed under the sun, including the one he purchased.”In response, Davidson explained that he was unaware he could “adopt a specific hypoallergenic dog” and gave context behind his “poor choice of words”.A post shared by Dave Sirus (@davesirus)“I haven’t seen my mom and sister cry like that in over 20 years,” Davidson said in relation to the death of his mother’s dog.

Bupkis can be loosely translated into English as “nothing” — which is the comedic point of Pete Davidson’s eponymous, semi-autobiographical series premiering May 4 on Peacock.Think of “Bupkis” as a “Seinfeld”-type “show about nothing” … but writ large.“I think our goal was to capture the relentless and absurd reality that is Pete’s world,” said showrunner Judah Miller, who co-created and co-wrote “Bupkis” with Davidson and Dave Sirus. (Stacy Keach delivers the opening, jokey “legal announcement” in his unmistakable baritone.)“When we were coming up with ideas, there were no fictitious concepts or situations that were going to rival the opportunities for comedy and satire that Pete’s actual life provides,” Miller said.

Alison Herman TV Critic “Your life is fascinating,” a friend tells comedian Pete Davidson, in character as comedian Pete Davidson. “I don’t know what it’s like to live it, but goddamn, do we have fun watching it.” It’s never a good sign when we have to be told, rather than shown, how interesting a person or project is meant to be. Yet that’s precisely the position in which “Bupkis” decides to put itself. The Peacock comedy is the second Davidson vehicle to draw heavily from the “Saturday Night Live” alum’s autobiography, after “The King of Staten Island” in 2020. In the style of director Judd Apatow, that feature film was already bloated; “Bupkis” takes the movie’s two-and-a-half-hour tale and stretches it out for another four, to diminishing returns.
