Nobody who makes $1.8 million in three years without reporting a cent flies under Uncle Sam's radar forever. Former Fugee Lauryn Hill plead guilty Friday to three income tax evasion counts. Hill spent six years in self-imposed isolation for the safety of her six children in which she claims she "deferred" payments she apparently knew she owed.

How many movies do you know where the main character is trying to chase down and kill himself? There aren't many of them, which makes "Looper" an interesting new twist on the mob movie.

For all of Adele's bitterness about ex-boyfriends on her hitmaking album "21," she seems to be doing pretty well right now. She has been dating her current boyfriend Simon Konecki for about a year, she has sworn that her next album will be much happier, and... she's pregnant!

Are Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes dunzo?
It's certainly looking that way: TMZ is reporting that the couple is on the verge of divorce, and comments from Holmes' lawyer aren't really doing much to refute the claim. The attorney released a statement saying, "This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family. Katie's primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter's best interests.

From his unrequited but beautifully constructed confession of love to Pamela to his self-flagellation at eating a pint of ice cream, Louis C.K. is something of a super sad sack in "Louie." He's not only put-upon; he puts upon himself.

An "Ant-Man" movie has been on Marvel's radar a few years now, without it ever coming to fruition. With San Diego Comic Con right around the corner, the time for a step forward may have come. Reports have writer/director Edgar Wright recently finishing a test reel that might or might not get some support rallied behind making a new "Avenger" a reality.

Opening Credits Gag: "Made From 100% Recycled Pixels." Ah, so that's why this episode smelled like a burned-out Dell.
The Highlights: It's an election year, and things usually get pretty good on "Futurama" when politics are involved. Or technology. Or religion. Okay, pretty much anything that can be harshly satirized is great on this show. Truth.

If "Community" goes out after this season, it's going out completely intact. Deadline reported Thursday that NBC has secured the entire regular cast to return for the fourth - and possibly, last - season. That includes Chevy Chase, whose return probably has at least a little bit to do with Dan Harmon being ousted as showrunner, in the wake of the ugly feud between the two.
