Episode Family Guy Season 9, Episode 12 - 'The Hand That Rocks the Wheelchair' Recap
March 08, 2011 @ 1:17 pm PST    Family Guy     Andy Neuenschwander    

As Peter once said, "That's right, folks. It's gonna be a Meg episode." This week's ep revisited the "Meg has a crush" theme that we saw when she became infatuated with Brian, only this time she has the hots for Joe. If an entire episode devoted to Joe and Meg sounds weird…you're right. It is.

The two lack the wacky energy that usually carries this show, so "The Hand That Rocks the Wheelchair" ends up being a bit slow as a result.

Yidio Video of the Day: J-Lo's 'On The Floor,' with 'American Idol' Viewer-Chosen Ending

When Jennifer Lopez was 18, she left home because her mother was afraid of her decision to pursue show business.

Twenty-three years later, Momma-Lo would be proud.

J-Lo is blowing up the charts, raking in endorsements and sitting in the comfortable (and very public) spotlight of juggernaut TV series "American Idol." The latter position may be the key ingredient to J-Lo’s digital domination.

Pro wrestling costumes typical require spandex, shiny vinyl boots, a colorful mask, perhaps a cape…and now spray tans?

Jersey Shore star Snooki will bring her fashion flair and guidette-game to "WWE RAW" next Monday. Rumor has it, Snooki will be creating an angle to become part of WrestleMania 27.

Snooki was previously seen on TNA – well, sort of. When fellow Shore star, Jenni “JWoww” Farley jumped into the ring for TNA, she was fake slapped by a fake Snooki.

Remember the movie “The Bodyguard”?

Pop singer and body guard love, it seems can work. Which is what Britney Spears may have been thinking, according to ex-bodyguard Fernando Flores.

Flores filed asexual harassment suit against Spears last September. She repeatedly made “unwanted sexual advances” he stated, which she denied. Now he says he has the pictures to prove it.

Episode 'Pretty Little Liars' Season 1, Episode 20 - 'Someone to Watch Over Me' Recap

The fan? It has been hit with the sh%^, y’all and everyone everywhere is busted.

Spencer’s been served with a search warrant and now the cops are in her room touching all her things.  We get a shot of 5-6 detectives crowding the small space, boxing up whatever they please while Spencer vibrates with fear and the 6 pots of coffee she drinks every morning. It’s actually really disconcerting to see all these grown men in latex gloves violating the sanctity of the teenage girl bedroom.
