With "So You Think You Can Dance" switching over to live episodes this week, they needed a big advertising push to get people to tune in, and a regular billboard wasn't going to cut it. So they decided to go with a live billboard instead. Driving down Sunset Blvd. yesterday afternoon, you would have been able to look up and see a group of dancers performing in front of a billboard, placed on a rooftop above the street.

Let's play a little game I like to call "Who's The Reality-TV Racist, Anyway?"
The lawsuit between "Real Housewives of NYC" star Cindy Barshop and former employee Altovise Collier is taking on an ugly new wrinkle: whereas it was Collier who first claimed that Barshop fired her from Barshop's Completely Bare spa because she's black, Barshop is now claiming that Collier's racism is killing her business.

There's only one guy whose job sucks more right now than the promo director at the Oxygen Channel, and that's the guy at MTV who has to decide what to do about "Awkward," the new scripted teen suicide comedy set to premiere on July 19th. In the wake of the attempted suicide of "Teen Mom" Amber Portwood this week, launching the series seems more than a little...well..."Awkward."

"Supernatural" fans, we hope absence makes the heart grow fonder. After earning big buzz from the time he entered season four as the Winchester brothers' favorite angel Castiel, Misha Collins won't be a regular performer next season, according to new reports. Castiel had just made a huge villainous turn, opening the gates of Purgatory within himself and becoming an all-powerful god that feeds on the power of souls and has a real with-me-or-against-me chip on his shoulder.

Disappearing bodies, creepy cops, shady therapists, no privacy ever! Oh, show I'm so glad you're back. We pick up right where we left off with the whole town gathered round the bell tower where Ian's dead body suddenly isn't. Good cop Garrett drives the little liars to the Rosewood PD for yet another round of questioning but stops along the way to make sure the girls are going to keep their mouths shut about Ian's peeping Tom video library (which includes years (YEARS!) of footage of the girls and Allison) and their attempt to blackmail him about it.

Back in 1978, Richard Donner landed one of the biggest names in Hollywood history in Marlon Brando to play Jor-El, the Kryptonian father of Superman. Bryan Singer didn't change anything for the reboot "Superman Returns," choosing to use and update archive footage of Brando from the original "Superman."
So, Zach Snyder had a decision to make in his new "Superman" reboot: stay with Brando, or find a replacement? If he decided to cast someone else, it would have to be a legendary actor, someone with the chops to compare to Brando, someone with the same macho
