Today's episode of Ellen is all kinds of fabulous, with out MSNBC host Rachel Maddow and Modern Family's Eric Stonestreet joining Ellen Degeneres on stage. Maddow talks about the hate-mail she receives, 100% of which, she says, addresses how she looks. Maddow and Degeneres get topical as they discuss the recent Presidential debates and the growing push for marriage equality, and finally, Maddow confesses her favorite guilty pleasure to watch on TV when she's not covering the news: Jersey Shore! Maddow says she's less enthused with the new season because the characters are starting to get their lives together, instead of providing the non-stop drunken antics that made the guidos and guidettes famous. And she does a killer J-WOWW impression.
