Last night's episode would have been a perfect opportunity to have that sentiment, as "Grumpy Old Man" wasn't anything to cheer about. It was one of those Carter episodes, which really seemed to work a couple of seasons ago when we hadn't seen Carter's vulnerable side yet. Read the episode recap.

Last night's episode of "Dexter" was titled "Talk to the Hand," but a more apt title might have been "Well, That Was Easy." The episode presented three major challenges, each of them met with a degree of ease that made them seem barely a threat at all...even the dreaded Wormwood.

The Sitter By: Sean Comer

Sure, it's a tough weekend to sell exhausted shoppers on seeing a movie. Sure, this weekend's new releases had disappointing draws under $15 million each. But did it really help that both were pretty poorly timed?

Arthur Christmas By: Andy Neuenschwander

It was only a matter of time before "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" was knocked off the top of the box office list, but the question was who would be the one to fell the champ? Would it be one of the well-reviewed Oscar-worthy movies? A family-friendly holiday movie like "The Muppets"?

Alec Baldwin was kicked off an American Airlines flight after arguing with a stewardess about playing "Words With Friends" on his iPhone. Now he's come on "Saturday Night Live" as American Airlines pilot Captain Steve Rogers to apologize to...himself? Watch the clip here.

Astro, Rachel Crow, Drew...they all have three things in common. They're all tremendously talented, they're all very young, and they've all cried on national television (two of them pretty hard). Fact is, they're all too young to be in a competition on national television.

Looks like those two coffins that Klaus has been dragging around (and Stefan stole) will be opened pretty soon: news has come out of the CW camp that "The Vampire Diaries" has added two new cast members, and they're Klaus' brothers!

It all comes down to this. It seems like that's the kind of phrase that could apply to just about every episode of the increasingly violent, tension-filled "Boardwalk Empire," but the last episode was the craziest in two seasons of the award-winning show, and this week more than any other, there will be blood.

Looking for what to get the ultimate "Breaking Bad" fan in your family? Well, stop looking into purchasing an underground meth-cooking facility because we've got a list of Walter White approved holiday gifts right here!

Glee By: Andy Neuenschwander

"Community" made its final bow (for now) this week, as NBC has decided to shelve the show for the foreseeable future. Given that it's the holiday season and that we might not see them for a while, did the show take the sentimental route and give us a warm and fuzzy episode? Nope.
