'Lost' writer Elizabeth Sarnoff thinks there's more to the history of Alcatraz than what we've been told, and thoroughly convinced J.J. Abrams of her suspicions.

When the dust settled from the upfront presentation frenzy, CBS had continued on without its freshman sitcom "$#*! My Dad Says." When Justin Halpern, the creator of the show, reacted to the cancellation on his blog, his humility proved to have remained intact.
"It was a bummer," wrote Halpern, "until I remembered that I got a TV show based off a twitter feed and a book and was basically the luckiest a**hole who ever roamed this earth."

For a long time, I thought Matt Stone and Trey Parker made up the succubus when they had Chef marry one.
But it turns out the concept - a demon who seduces men and feeds off sexual energy - has been around for centuries. And like all creatures that we theoretically should hate, the succubus has its own television show!

And so it has come to this.
After "Dawson's Creek" launched her career, Michelle Williams played it pretty classy, starring almost exclusively in films guided by a strong directorial voice. Her biggest film to date in terms of budget and cultural presence was a Martin Scorsese film ("Shutter Island"). She starred in "Wendy and Lucy," "Synecdoche, New York," "Blue Valentine," and "Meek's Cutoff."
Now she's a witch in a Disney film.

In the 80's "Teen Wolf" was a cult-classic. Now, MTV is bringing the high school werewolf back but this time to the small screen.
On June 5, after the MTV Movie Awards, the all-new "Teen Wolf" TV show will premiere. Great timing, MTV, simply great.
The original film, starring Michael J. Fox, was more fun and fantasy than serious but the new take is a darker depiction of a boy turned werewolf.

Wondering what the new "Charlie's Angels" reboot will look like? Wonder no further: we have the preview right here.
The one-and-a-half-minute clip features two of the three angels (played by Rachael Taylor and Annie Ilonzeh) as they bust into a hotel room, beat up some tough thugs (men, of course), and rescue a kidnapped girl. Minka Kelly, the third Angel, is noticeably absent from the clip.

If you're a fan of the underrated "The Other Guys," here's some good news for you: Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg will be teaming up again very soon!
The next project from the two (very different) actors is "Turkey Bowl," a movie about an annual football game between rival small towns. With Ferrell on one team and Wahlberg on the other, it's pretty much guaranteed that this game is going to get completely out of hand.
