This video clip of filmmaker Kevin Smith was shot at San Diego Comic-Con 2009. It's not new, but it has been making the rounds this weekend due to the huge box office success of the Twilight sequel The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

(S15E10) I mentioned last week that the remaining teams on The Amazing Race are really feeling the pressure as they're getting closer to the win. Well, there were no fisticuffs, no elbowing, but there was an underhanded incident ... or two or three. Unlike Survivor , this show doesn't depend on sneakiness or scheming.

Does anyone remember an ancient Saturday Night Live skit from January 1982 (season 7, episode 9) featuring Dan Ackroyd as FDR, actor Robert Conrad (that week’s SNL guest host) as one of the president’s advisers, and Gilda Radner as First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.

Oprah only announced her impending retirement on Friday, and speculation on who will replace her has already begun. The Times pegs Ellen and Dr. Oz as the front runners, partially because their deals come up for renewal at the same time that Oprah plans to step down.

Sorry Liz but what's "inexcusable" is your daddy helping to get us into this quagmire in the first place.

Can anyone explain this? This parody on SNL last night not only nailed Obama over his failed economic policies but was actually genuinely funny. Wow. Saturday Night Live slammed Obama over his failed Stimulus Bill, his failed Cash for Clunkers program, his trillion dollar nationalized health care plan, his midreading of the current crisis and his [...]
