This week's House is all about Cuddy! The show follows the harried single mom through a particularly stressful day at Princeton Plainsboro, and as such, we see the entire series of events from her perspective for a change a la the "Wilson" episode. My verdict: the woman is majorly ruthless.

Saturday Night Live's recent game show skits haven't killed me the way the old Jeopardy ones with Will Ferrell as Alex Trebek did — until this weekend, when Ashton Kutcher hosted. The game is called "What Is Burn Notice?" and based entirely on the notion that despite the USA show's popularity, no one really knows what Burn Notice is about.

There's a new sheriff in town on Grey's Anatomy this week, and his name's Derek Shepherd. Instead of a shiny badge, Derek comes brandishing a snazzy new outfit (complete with tie!) to move into his new office, greet the surgeons as their chief, and most important — square off with Webber yet again.
Elsewhere, Lexie and Mark continue their relationship issues, Cristina gets burned (literally), and Bailey gets her confidence shaken by a patient.

We might have been prepared for The Vampire Diaries flashback episode "Children of the Damned" with this sneak peek a while back, but watching this week's episode filled in a lot of blanks. I love the jump from the modern-day mystery to the 1800s ancestral stories, but even more, I love how layered the story is.
I'm ready to talk about everything that went down, so let's tackle the good, the bad, and the bloody when you read more

One good flick deserves another, right? Franchise-happy Hollywood has a block of sequels in the works, and today's three include one that makes me groan, one that's actually fun, and one that we all saw coming.
- Fifth time's a charm: The Fast and the Furious's next installment has been confirmed, with Paul Walker and Vin Diesel attached yet again.

After a long, looong wait, Lost is finally back! This week's two-hour premiere was intense and gratifying — but there are still plenty of questions left open. Among them is last season's big finale question of whether Juliet's attempt to detonate the hydrogen bomb worked.

While I was in LA for the weekend covering the Grammys, I happened to bump into a very, very tall Quinton Aaron, the star of The Blind Side, at a red carpet event. You know I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get his opinion on all of the hoopla surrounding the film — don't forget it's Oscar-nominated now! He was incredibly humble as he talked about the movie, his crush on Sandra Bullock, and his thoughts on that golden statuette.

This week's House gave us a glimpse into the personal life of Foreman with the arrival of his straight-outta-jail brother Marcus (Orlando Jones). House, always the meddler, decides to bring the two guys together by hiring Marcus as his assistant — and of course, multiple jokes at Foreman's expense ensue. But is House just trying to get back at Foreman and, as he puts it, screw with him?

When I checked out Sympathy For Delicious at Sundance, I got a little worried that Orlando Bloom has been making the wrong career choices — though his acting is fine in the movie, his character is pretty one-dimensional. That's why I'm excited to hear that his next role sounds like something he can really sink his teeth into.
Bloom is attached to produce and star in The Good Doctor, an indie drama that's being described as "a Hitchcockian thriller."
