Music in the Movies: Sad Brad Smith's "Help Yourself"
Have you ever been in the middle of watching a movie when you hear a new song that you immediately fall in love with? This happens to me on a regular basis, and I often find myself rushing home to try to download the song before I forget the tune entirely. A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to attend an advance screening of Up in the Air, when one of those moments hit.

Buzz-Worthy Video: How I Met Your Mother's Slap Bet Game
I was excited to see what How I Met Your Mother would cook up for its annual Thanksgiving episode, especially when I saw that this week would feature Chris Elliott as Lily's estranged dad, Mickey Aldrin. We found out why they were estranged (the failed board game entrepreneur was leeching off her grandparents), and watched their relationship be restored over the course of the day.

Oprah Will Say Goodbye to Her Talk Show in 2011
If getting a chance to sit in on Oprah is something you've always wanted to do, you'd better start looking into tickets — the queen of daytime talk shows is closing up shop. Winfrey will announce on her show tomorrow that her last episode will air on Sept. 9, 2011.
Jason Lee — Love Him or Leave Him?
Jason Lee has been keeping a low profile since My Name Is Earl went off the air, but he's about to make a return to TV in the upcoming TNT series Delta Blues, which is executive produced by George Clooney. Lee is set to play Dwight Hendricks, a police officer by day, Elvis impersonator by night.
I loved Lee in pretty much every Kevin Smith movie — from Brodie in Mallrats to Banky in Chasing Amy — but I could never warm up to Earl (or that absurd mustache).
