"American Idol" runner-up Jessica Sanchez looks set to join the fourth season cast of "Glee" this September. It will make for nice co-promotion alongside the first season pairing the show alongside "American Idol." But does anyone else remember when this show had a great first season with minimal involvement from major guests?

Tragedy has, expectedly, put several planned Radiohead tour dates on hold. The band announced via its website today that in the wake of drum technician Scott Johnson's death during a stage collapse in Toronto last weekend, several European dates will be rescheduled. Meanwhile, the band plans on resuming performing July 10.

WARNING: The following contains a MAJOR SPOILER for this coming Monday's episode of ABC's "The Bachelorette." If you don't want to know....well, then why exactly did you click on the headline that read "SPOILER?" That being said, if you're having second thoughts, you know what to do....However, the word on this one has been out for a while. Chris Harrison even gave up the ghost this past week. So, what's this about Arie and an ABC producer?
Really, ABC? This show is no bastion of credibility as it is, but - a producer-contestant relationship?
Serious? You think that's going to slide pa

Are you ready for an "American Idol" to "Glee" cross-over? Is the world ready for that? No seriously, will it cause some kind of musical teenybopper explosion? I'm concerned.
It just might happen: TVLine reports that Sanchez is in talks to join "Glee" season 4 in some capacity. Word is that Sanchez will sign on for a multi-episode arc if the deal becomes a reality.

If "Taken" taught us one thing, it's this: never share a cab with a stranger in Paris or else you'll get kidnapped and sold into sex slavery. If it taught us two things, the second would be never to f*** with Liam Neeson. The trailer for "Taken 2" teaches us even more.

The war isn't over, but the FCC drops a battle. The Supreme Court ruled today against $1.24 million in fines handed down to ABC and 45 affiliates through the years. Though the Court ruled that spontaneous profanity and extremely brief nudity weren't nearly the severe no-nos the agency claimed, it declined ruling against the overall indecency policy the agency holds over broadcasters' heads.

No Stallone. No Schneider. No camp. It's bullets, explosions, grit and yet another sturdy-looking jaw beneath a helmet. Karl Urban is Judge, Jury and Executioner in "Dredd" Sept. 21 and Lionsgate has (erm, sort of) released the first full trailer.

Twitter has needed to change very, very little. Whereas Facebook gets more needlessly complicated constantly, 140 characters is still 140 characters. Even with the roll-out of "expanded tweets" to select users, it still will be. It's now just 140 characters with an optional "preview" button.
