If you missed last night's "South Park," you missed one of the more surreal episodes of the entire series. Not because it was particularly strange (though it was pretty strange), but because for once the show got a little bit depressing.
I'll do my best not to spoil too much, but if you plan on watching the episode you might want to stop here, watch it, then come back.

It was clearly a very wet Wednesday at the "NBC TODAY Show" studios. For those who missed it, co-host Meredith Vieira bid her farewells after five seasons on the morning talk-show. And nary one of her loyal co-workers missed a chance to show their appreciation.

Kiefer Sutherland's latest Fox drama has picked up a little extra firepower. Here's hoping he just isn't getting too old for this s***.
Veteran actor Danny Glover has signed up to star along the former "24" headliner in a pilot for Sutherland's newest Fox drama, "Touch." Sutherland will portray a father that has to cope with knowing that his son (David Mazouz) can see events before they happen.

If you ever get in a debate with someone over who the worst actress of the last 25 years is, there's a definitive answer for you. It's Jennifer Love Hewitt.
At least, that's what Slate.com determined in an analysis of data compiled from the movie review aggregate site Rottentomates.com. The data implies that of the actresses that did more than 20 movies since 1985, Jennifer Love Hewitt has the lowest average review score on Rottentomatoes.

In the 14 seasons that "South Park" has been on the air, there's one TV trope that they've always avoided: the comedy episode with a serious twist. Well, we're in season 15 now, and there's a first time for everything. "You're Getting Old," is just plain depressing.

Last week, Rihanna debuted the music video for her single "Man Down" on BET, and the video was met with a mess of controversy. The issue that groups like the Parents Television Council took with it had to do with Rihanna portraying a girl who is sexually assaulted and later shoots her attacker dead, which plays out more as an act of revenge than self defense.
But the director of the video, Anthony Mandler, isn't surprised by that people are up in arms about the video.

The version of "The Hangover II" you saw in theaters (and if the box office receipts are any indication, you almost certainly have) might not be the one you see at home. The tattoo artist responsible for Mike Tyson's face tattoo, which was re-appropriated for use on "Hangover" star Ed Helms' face, is carrying out his copyright infringement suit against Warner Brothers.
