NBC Moves 'Persons Unknown' to Saturday | Vulture →
I was not expecting this. A virtual death sentence. And it’s a real shame because Persons Unknown, while not perfect, is pretty good for summer TV and pretty good within the mystery, sci-fi genre it operates in. At least they’re not canning it completely, without resolution. That would truly terrible.

Eminem Tops Chart With Industry's Highest First... →
Much about the music industry has changed in recent years, but at least one thing remains the same: Eminem’s role as a chart-topping star. The rapper’s latest album, “Recovery” (Aftermath/Interscope), sold 741,000 copies in its opening week, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the most sales in a one week by any artist since AC/DC’s “Black Ice” moved 784,000 copies in October 2008.
Maybe it has to...

‘Eclipse’ Record Watch: Midnight B.O. $30 mil |... →
We’re going to see a lot of records broken this weekend, so I’ve created the ‘Eclipse Record Watch.’ First was Widest Opening (heh), now Midnight sales, next up biggest day.
“The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” sunk its fangs into multiplexes on Wednesday morning, selling a record-setting $30 million in tickets for 12:01 a.m. shows.
“Eclipse,” the third film in the phenomenally...

Ah, what some feared has come true. Sad day for the short lived comedy but at least we have the 20 brilliant episodes that we do. And I’m sure the actors and creators are all going to go on to other successful projects.
RIP Party Down.

Lily Allen is writing some of the songs for the new Bridget Jones stage musical, which has staged its first workshop reading. I’m told this was a rough assembly of Helen Fielding’s script and some songs with the Billy Elliotcreative team — director Stephen Daldry, choreographer Peter Darling and associate director Julian Webber. Producer Working Title plans to bring the show to London’s West...

WatchTrailer: Paranormal Activity 2 - Oct. 22
Guess you needed to see the first one to understand this or be scared by it? Either way it’s a boring, uneventful trailer that fails at building tension and using minimalism correctly.
Also, this was a super fast turnaround for a sequel. I hope we didn’t start another Saw franchise that puts out a new movie every year, in which each year they...

In the interest of journalistic integrity, I went on Chatroulette this morning to verify its obsolescence. Time it took for someone to show me his unit: 10 seconds. I clicked the “next” button. There, in extreme close-up, was a penis. I clicked “next” again. And there was no one there at all. Just vast, empty nothingness. All that’s left of a once great civilization...

I’d like to hear what everyone thinks of this issue. Steve Carell thinks it can, I’m more skeptical. Truth is, Michael Scott the backbone for a lot of the plot development and comedy on the show. To continue without him would make it a vague image of what it once was. They should take this opportunity and end the show right instead of it fizzling out into creative monotony (a la...
