"Saturday Night Live" has seen some tremendous hosts in the recent past, from the sneaky-funny Jon Hamm to former cast member Tina Fey to Justin Timberlake. But there are two people that "SNL" cast member Jason Sudeikis still wants to see host the show: "Twilight" stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

June 03, 2011 @ 5:07 am PST    The Voice, American Idol     Andy Neuenschwander    
All along, NBC's vocal competition show "The Voice" has wanted to show everyone that it's different from "American Idol." Cee Lo Green even spoke up before the show aired, saying that he thought shows like "American Idol" had "run their course." During the show, Adam Levine cracked that a lot of the talent that was being turned away could be in the finals on "Idol," but weren't quite up to "Voice" standards.

The new trailer for "Horrible Bosses" has come online, and it looks just as delightful as I'd guessed. Jason Sudeikis, Jason Bateman, and Charlie Day star in it, and if that isn't a deadly combination, I don't know what is. Watch the trailer for "Horrible Bosses" here.

The apes invade! Monkeys everywhere! And it's all James Franco's fault. In the new trailer for "Rise of the Planet of the Apes," the CGI characters look pretty remarkable, James Franco is just off his rocker enough, and by the time the apes get revolting, I'm onboard.

June 03, 2011 @ 4:47 am PST    The Simpsons, Arrested Development, Youth in Revolt     Scott Nye    
After getting his start on "Arrested Development," "Juno" and "Youth in Revolt" star Cera has pretty much steered clear of the small screen, but who can ignore the call of "The Simpsons"? In an upcoming episode, he'll play a slightly hipster-ish potential love interest for Lisa.

June 03, 2011 @ 4:39 am PST    Fear Factor     Andy Neuenschwander    
If anyone tries to tell you that our collective tastes as a television viewing audience are getting more and more low-brow, hit them with this: "Fear Factor" is coming back, and it might actually be a little classier this time around. NBC is reportedly planning to reboot the competition series, which originally ran for six seasons before it was cancelled in 2006.

Matthew Morrison. Mark Salling. Naya Rivera. What do these three have in common? They're all on "Glee," and they all have their own record deals for a solo album. Rivera, who plays Santana on the hit Fox show, is the latest cast member to land her own solo record deal. Salling, who plays Puck, has one in the works and Morrison, who plays Will Schuester, has already released his (and featured a single on the show).

Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin Get Animated in 'Jack Donaghy Executive Superhero' (Watch it Here)
June 02, 2011 @ 9:46 pm PST    30 Rock, NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams     Scott Nye    
If, like me, you've reached Thursday night and said to yourself, "Thursday was a lot better when '30 Rock' was on the air," you're in luck. But only in small doses. And animated. The "30 Rock" team has produced a series of animated webisodes, starring Alec Baldwin, detailing the adventures of "Jack Donaghy, Executive Superhero."

Uncle Ben's Original 'Spider-Man' Killer to Return For 'The Amazing Spider-Man'?
June 02, 2011 @ 4:00 pm PST    The Amazing Spider-Man, Spider-Man     Sean Comer    
Well, of all the original "Spider-Man" cast members to be sought for a cameo in 2012's "The Amazing Spider-Man," this wasn't one I expected. Character actor Michael Papajohn played a brief but pivotal role in the first of Sony's three "Spider-Man" movies: he played Uncle Ben's original killer, a petty thief setting in motion the tragic events that drive Peter Parker to become Spider-Man.

Eliza Dushku to Star in Animated 'Torchwood' Webisodes
June 02, 2011 @ 4:00 pm PST    Torchwood, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Dollhouse, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Battlestar Galactica, Spartacus: Blood and Sand, Spartacus: Gods of the Arena     Scott Nye    
Eliza Dushku has two very important talents - never aging, and constantly attaching herself to nerdy properties. And while starring in a "motion comic" based on the popular geek series "Torchwood" may not seem like a great career move, it's exactly this kind of attitude that has kept Dushku kind of relevant for nearly her whole career.
