A Chicago jury Friday afternoon convicted William Balfour, 31, of three first-degree murder counts in the slaying of Jennifer Hudson's family, Reuters reports. Balfour now faces a mandatory life prison sentence. The prosecution maintained that he went into a rage when his estranged wife, Jennifer's sister Julia, wouldn't take him back. The defense countered that the slayings were the doing of crack dealers from Chicago's South Side targeting Jason Hudson, Jennifer's slain brother.

Once upon a time, it seems Apple might've played a touch too much defense. A January 2005 antitrust filing over many, many iPods and digital rights management has started picking up steam. Informative e-mails are on the way to millions who purchased the MP3 players between 2006 and 2009, offering a chance to collect on any possible settlement or judgment.

Shows like this rarely go exactly what one could call "well." Lifetime has given the OK to a 10-episode docu-series chronicling the mourning of Whitney Houston's family. It's led by Houston's former sister-in-law and manager, who had reportedly been working on such a show for years. One focus could now become Houston's daughter dealing with addiction.

That leaves everything nearly set. "Parks & Recreation" and "Up All Night" have both been given NBC's official go-ahead for next season. "Community" has also been given a half-season order for a fourth round, matching the number of episodes "30 Rock" will get to close out the series. That still leaves "Whitney" and "The Office" with undecided fates.

"Community" has been renewed for a fourth season. Hooray! But it will be a short, 13-episode season, and it might be the show's last. Uh oh. Get the details here.

When Abed becomes suspicious that the Dean is an impostor, he is ordered into mandatory therapy. Of course, the rest of the group tags along, but they end up finding out a shocking truth(?) about themselves.

That's three down, one to go. With John Krasinski, Ed Helms and Jenna Fischer reportedly having new "The Office" deals in place just awaiting signing, the series looks safe for another season. But that doesn't resolve every question. Writer, performer and executive producer Mindy Kaling is bolting for FOX. Rainn Wilson looks headed out midway into next season along with showrunner Paul Lieberstein to focus on their Dwight Schrute spin-off. And finally, B.J. Novak has yet to sign a new deal, with the same responsibilities as Kaling.
