By all accounts, “Trauma” was basically a medical drama as imagined by Michael Bay. It got panned by critics, earned lousy ratings, and NBC announced it was stopping production immediately. Now, by unpopular non-demand, NBC has ordered more episodes. Why would NBC order more of a low-rated show that isn’t particularly acclaimed...

(How nice am I for using former gladiator Gina Carano for the banner pic instead of Titan? That guy is gayer than Liberace cornholing a Care Bear.) American Gladiators was only ever successful in the highly competitive, Saturday-afternoon-between-football-games time slot.  NBC tried to run it at prime time in 2008 and it got canceled after 21...

Billy “I Own Four TV’s” Simmons had an article detailing the Pats 4th and 2 call from Sunday Night. It contains the usual assortment of Simmons arguments that he deems irrefutable. But forget all that. Look at this: Seattle loves me for defending its Sonics after Clay Bennett hijacked them and moved them elsewhere. If there...

Here’s Anaheim’s Scott Neidermayer trying to do something nice after his game against the Lightning, tossing a stick over the glass to a fan in the stands. But watch the asshole in the blue shirt trying to grab the stick from the intended receiver…and then gets pummeled in the process. And really, this is what the game is all...

One artist's conception of what Under the Dome might look like, if it were The Simpsons Movie. The two big Steves in entertainment (other than Gutenberg, of course) are finally teaming up on a project: adapting Stephen King’s recent thriller Under The Dome into a TV miniseries. Yep, DreamworksTV has optioned Dome and is looking to bring...

From SlashFilm: Jason Segel (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) joined The Swell Season — Irish musician Glen Hansard and Czech singer and pianist Markéta Irglová (you know, the musical artists from the indie musical Once) — on stage at The Wiltern in Los Angeles on November 18th, 2009. Segel joked that the movie Once beat out the Dracula...

With only two episodes of “Sons of Anarchy” remaining, “Mad Men” in mothballs until August, and “Friday Night Lights” relegated to DirecTV until next summer, we’re running dangerously low on quality dramas right now (Sorry, I don’t watch “Dexter.” File your complaint here). But at least...

Yesterday it was announced that Tony Dungy will head the Players Advisory Forum, a group that will serve as a intermediary between players who want to b*tch and the league executives who want to ignore them. Already committed to the cause is a religious nut (Kurt Warner), a phony dickbag who conveniently adopted religion to cover for his sordid...

Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams picked up the slack left from injured teammate Ronnie Brown, and then some. Williams finished the day with 119 yards rushing and 3 TDs as the Dolphins rolled passed the Carolina Panthers, 24-17. Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme had an off-night, only throwing one pick. Dolphins coach Tony Sparano...

(Yes, the bear eats the script.  I’m hard right now.) Comedian T.J. Miller twice unsuccessfully auditioned for a part in the Yogi Bear movie, but thanks to this video audition he sent in, he scored the biggest casting coup since “Hey, Malkovich, think fast!” What better way to win the role of Ranger Jones in the Yogi Bear movie...

Sad pandas will have to make do with O Magazine After much speculation, Oprah Winfrey has announced that she will end her daily syndicated talk show on ABC, devastating legions of middle-aged women who need Oprah to tell them what to think and what books to read. The top-rated talk show host told her Chicago audience Thursday that she will...
