Buzz In: What's Your Biggest Movie-going Disaster?
In Utah recently, a movie theater full of parents and kids expecting to watch Disney's family-appropriate High School Musical 3 were instead treated to the beginning of the R-rated flick Sex Drive. Apparently, the opening few minutes of the movie include nudity so parents didn't even have a chance to shield their youngsters. Understandably, folks were horrified:
"I could not carry my little children out before they were exposed to extremely vulgar and sexually explicit material," one parent complained in an e-mail to the Desert News.

Movie Preview: Sex Drive
I heard about Sex Drive a while ago and then read a review that gave the movie a so-so rating, but now that I've seen the trailer, I'm kinda interested to see it. In some ways it resembles a way weaker version of Superbad, but also more bizarre and — it seems — a little less gross. The plot goes like this: "A horny teenager brings his friends along on a road trip from Chicago to Knoxville to lose his virginity with a girl he met online."

90210 Rundown: Episode 24, "One Party Can Ruin Your Whole Summer"
I can't stop laughing about this week's season finale of 90210. It is so ridiculously all over the place, I can't help but love it a little. It might even be my favorite episode of the entire first season because it has everything: stoned parents, random crushes revealed, psycho older sisters, babies, sex, Brenda Walsh, a Chinese parade dragon, Annie's emotional meltdown, and more!
House Rundown: Episode 24, "Both Sides Now"
After last week's episode of House, I wondered how House would cope in a world where he was no longer on drugs. I was also curious to see what would happen to the sexual tension between House and Cuddy now that they've apparently done the deed. How did it all go down in Monday's season finale?
Private Practice Rundown: Episode 20, "Do The Right Thing"
You know what? I really enjoyed myself while watching this week's episode of Private Practice. There's good stuff going on, including Dell's self-destructive downward spiral into the world of ladies who wear ripped-up stretch pants, Violet and Charlotte's BFF relationship morphing into more of a frenemies situation, Idina Menzel, and a pregnant tween.
The Office Rundown: Episode 18, "Blood Drive"
Happy Valentine's Blood Drive, everyone! The theme of this week's episode of The Office may be a little belated but is no less funny or satisfying for it. Still stinging from his Holly heartbreak, of course Michael wants all the single employees at Dunder-Mifflin to have their own private Valentine's Day party (away from the "general sexiness" of Jim and Pam's relationship).
Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 10, "All By Myself"
It's solo surgery time on Grey's Anatomy this week, and that feeling of being all alone — often with someone else's life in your hands — runs all through this episode. Life as a surgical resident is lonely, it seems, unless you have the ghost of your dead boyfriend to keep you company. To talk about it, just read more
Desperate Housewives Rundown Episode 9: "Me and My Town"
While I thought this week's episode of Desperate Housewives is pretty good, I really missed the recent guest stars (Frances Conroy as the wealthy Virginia Hildebrand and Lily Tomlin as Mrs. McCluskey's sister Roberta)! But overall this episode — all about the immediate aftermath of the fire at the club where Blue Odyssey was playing their first show — is better than most of them, in my opinion. Nothing too ridiculous happens (not even, surprisingly, in Susan's storyline), and there are even a few truly sweet moments (like Carlos's little speech to Gaby about why he married her).
Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode Six, "Life During Wartime"
This week's Grey's Anatomy is intense, and I blame it all on Wilbur and three other pigs (fake pigs — totally fake) in need of some medical intervention. Why can I watch these doctors cut people open all day, but I get emotional over pigs? That's a good question for Izzie, too, cause that's where she is in this episode.
