Spies are the coolest of the cool. The secret-holders and protectors. The smartest and often the most spry. It's no wonder many of us want to be them, or you know, make out with them. This weekend's spy comedy Get Smart reminded me that there are so many spies I love. To see my favorite spies from TV and movies, just hit "Start."
Ever since I proclaimed it a Bad Idea of the Week way back in March of '07, I've been utterly fascinated with NBC's show The Baby Borrowers, which is finally set to premiere next Wednesday, June 25. The show takes teenage couples and essentially asks them to become parents overnight, as they care for babies, toddlers, preteens, teenagers, and, eventually, senior citizens. (Why not toss in a 47-year-old in the throes of a midlife crisis, while they're at it?)
The show is based on a British series of the same name, and I'm told that over there, it was a pretty educational and informative show. But from watching the previews for the NBC version, I can't tell what kind of tone the U.S. version of the show is going to have. Am I meant to laugh at these crazy kids and their predicament? Feel sorry for them? Be angry on behalf of the actual families of the kids and adults they're caring for? Take it as a poignant appreciation of the life cycle? The moral still seems to be "hey, kids, life sucks" — and watching even a single episode of that seems like it would be more harrowing than entertaining.
The show was originally supposed to air back in February, when our own LilSugar got freaked out by the concept. But the premiere got changed to the Summer, and so I'm wondering: If you've seen the previews, how do you feel about the show? To watch a trailer and a couple of shorter clips, just read more
These days, it seems almost unfathomable that anyone would release a TV series or movie on DVD without packing the discs full of special features. From commentary tracks to blooper reels, the DVDs seem like little gifts for fans who really want to go behind the scenes.
Personally, I just can't say no to a good gag reel. How about you? When you buy DVDs, which of the special features are your favorites?

I realize part of the rock 'n' roll appeal is the fact that musicians themselves don't play by the rules and can be crazy. Even so, the video clips that LimeWire's music blog dug up showcasing some of the more outrageous rock star "attacks" are kinda shocking.
Who knew little Pete Wentz had it in him to leap into the crowd during a live performance and start punching an audience member? And seeing Green Day's Billie Joe completely lose his cool and dive head first, fists swinging into the crowd during a performance makes me curious what the guy did to incur such wrath.
I've personally never witnessed anything like that physical hostility (I'm not sure if Badly Drawn Boy (Damon Gough) screaming and swearing at people to stop talking during his set counts) and I wondered if you have any stories of exciting live rock show brawls?
Kate Beckinsale was spotted leaving the hair salon in LA looking perfectly coiffed from head to toe. She wore a shirtdress over leggings, pairing it with Fiorentini + Baker buckle boots and a cozy scarf for a Fall-appropriate look.
