Some media questions are hard to wrap your head, or in this case, fangs around.

“E!” online raises the question: “Did Justin Bieber purposefully name drop Robert Pattinson to get attention?” and wants to know if, as a result, Pattinson called Bieber a liar.

“E!” reports that Bieber was quoted in a British tabloid saying he wants R.Pattz as a wingman because he uses his hair to meet girls.

It's always going to be a good night on "30 Rock" when Will Arnett shows up!

This week's episode saw the "TGS" crew reeling as Tracy is still away "in Africa." When Jack puts the show on a forced hiatus, everyone freaks out and starts going to their "plan B." Frank goes back to stand-up, Pete returns to substitute teaching, and Sue goes to her fallback job as a psychic detective (no, seriously).

What's wrong with Abed? Maybe the better question to ask is what's right with Abed? When Jeff agrees to have dinner with Abed for his birthday, he finds that the usually antisocial and somewhat juvenile pop culture nerd is smiling, hugging, and looking for a "real conversation."

Jeff, meanwhile, has planned a super-cool "Pulp Fiction" surprise party for Abed, including costumes and a certified replica of Marcellus Wallace's briefcase.

March 25, 2011 @ 6:00 am PST    Fringe, Lights Out     Andy Neuenschwander    

It is both a sad day and a great one as we receive news on two great shows, one of them cancelled and the other renewed.

It's sad to see a show with such promise be knocked out in the first round, especially when FX is creating lots of amazing original content and not having a lot of success: "Terriers" was another terrific show that didn't get renewed due to poor ratings, even with exc
