Funny how a few awards and the right critical acclaim will change people's minds about a course of action. It seems that in this case, even "American Horror Story" creator Ryan Murphy might've spoken a little bit too soon. Murphy claimed previously that his grim FX would return next season with its freshman cast replaced entirely by new characters. Then legendary actress Jessica Lange won Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe prizes for her performance as kidnapping neighbor Constance Langdon.

Once upon a time, Warner Bros. staked its shiny new tentpole "Harry Potter" franchise upon the then-narrow shoulders of Daniel Radcliffe. Now, Lionsgate has Jennifer Lawrence and "The Hunger Games." If it proves a hit, then Lionsgate had better county many a lucky star March 23 when it hits theaters everywhere in standard and limited-time IMAX formats. Playing heroic Katniss Everdeen nearly wasn't a gig Lawrence wanted at all, she recently told Glamour.

'Twas a colorful visit that Ellen Pompeo made to "Chelsea Lately." Lessons were learned: everything is more fun with more black people around....bartenders take better advantage of drunk patrons than waitresses....but the biggest question asked was this: will Katherine Heigl once more be making rounds on "Grey's Anatomy"?

The week's second "American Idol" performance set Wednesday night could've performed worse, but it wasn't exactly a breakout, either. Wednesday's show - this one, all about the ladies' performances - won FOX this week's Wednesday night crown by drawing 17 million viewers and a 4.9 adult-demographic rating, but that's actually a one-tenth point slip below the Tuesday show's rating featuring the male semifinalists despite getting about 1 million more viewers.

Lindsay Lohan is back on "Saturday Night Live" this week, and her promos just hit the 'net. In the videos, Lohan pokes fun at herself, takes a few jabs at the media, and fails to give Keenan a cream pie to the face.

The trailer for the "Piranha 3D" sequel, which is of course called "Piranha 3DD," has hit, and it is even more ridiculous than the first movie. I know, you're thinking "that's not possible," but I swear. It's thoroughly absurd. Ving Rhames has gun-legs. Watch it here.

To most, a movie musical starring Gwyneth Paltrow, Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz seems like a crazy idea. But to "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy, it's a reality. Yes, Murphy is actually planning this musical movie with the three stars, plus many other musical guests. Find out more here.

The newest trailer for "The Avengers" has a little less talking about this major threat to the Earth, and a lot more footage of that threat getting its teeth kicked in by Iron Man, Cap, Hulk, Thor, and the rest of the team. Watch the action-packed trailer here!
