Or candy! You knew that already. But did you know that GOB Bluth did the voiceover for GM and T. Rowe Price?

Sony has just stopped production of the original PlayStation. It was an 11 year run.
But as Brendan Sinclair points out, this isn’t the longest active duty for a home game console. That honor is held by the Atari 2600–which was in production from 1977 to 1991.
And if you knew that, well, don’t brag about it.

Be honest, you’ve always thought that the world needed Brokeback Mountain meets Oxford Blues.
And this is just for Matus—Bring It On, with gymnastics. That would hardly be worth noting except that The Dude abides as Bela Caroli.

I Watch Stuff has posted the above logo for upcoming disaster Snakes on a Plane. But, really, if the suits have written Ace out of the script, why even bother? Right, Friendsssssss?
I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m preparing a spot in my Best Worst Movie pantheon, just in case it stacks up to Starship Troopers and Fast and the Furious.

You can pretend you didn’t like The Fast and the Furious, you can pretend that sometimes, when no one’s looking, you floor it and say, “It doesn’t matter if you win by an inch, or by a mile.”
And you can pretend, if you must, that you won’t see this.
Really, it’s too bad they already killed Johnny Tran.

It’s totally old and you’ve probably seen it a dozen times already, but on the off-chance you haven’t, check out Sky TV’s live-action Simpsons promo. You’ll smile, I promise.

Lisa de Moraes, who is perfect, has unfriendly things to say about the latest Carville-Matalin project: a reality series called Election, where, like the movie, they each manage a candidate campaigning for class president at a high school.
But if it doesn’t degenerate into schmaltz and self-esteem bolstering, doesn’t that kind of sound like great TV?
(For purposes of answering this question, pretend that Election won’t be airing on Lifetime.)
