Other things that only happen in movies (and TV)
1. It will always snow on Christmas Eve. 2. A fraternity will always be referred to as a “frat.” 3. You must always look at your cell/landline phone before hanging up. Especially if you’re suddenly disconnected. 4. When speed dialing from a cell phone, the audience will hear the sound of each digit being pressed. This lets everyone know that a call is being made.

29 things that only happens at the movies
srsly: lickystickypicky: 1. It is always possible to find a parking spot directly outside or opposite the building you are visiting. 2. When paying for a taxi, don’t look at your wallet as you take out a note. Just grab one out at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare. 3. Television news bulletins usually contain a story that affects you personally at the precise moment...

This is from the Christmas 2005 episode of Saturday Night Live, hosted by Alec Baldwin. And it was the last sketch of the night, believe it or not. “Your name is Honeydew? And you call yourself an elf, you son of a bitch?”

Bryan Fuller's Rx for 'Heroes' (EW.com) →
Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller wrote “Company Man,” the single best episode of Heroes ever. He just returned to the show and has lots of ideas about how to fix it. Hope it’s not too late. It might be, though.

Tom Cruise and the guy from that MTV show
So a guy involved in a fake relationship gave advice to another guy who’s in a fake relationship. Nothing from nothing is … nothing.

No cliffhanger for "Pushing Daisies" after all
From this week’s Ask Ausiello - We’re getting closure, dammit! The series finale will no longer end on a cliffhanger, as I previously reported. Through the magic of post-production, Bryan Fuller and his team managed to tack on a completely new beginning and ending to the episode. “We’re doing a lot of work in post to shape it so that it is satisfying for the...

Best. Episode. Title. Ever.
An upcoming episode of “Supernatural” (airing in January) is entitled “Criss Angel Is A Douchebag.” No joke.

Hmm. So I’ll try again. Although I still can’t tell those two apart. You know, I think she may be the one with the problem after all.

“But this - this is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to write. There’s no easy...”
– Hank Moody (via trappedintime) It was a nice way to end the season. These New York flashbacks were amazing. (via peterwknox) It WAS a great moment. The season’s not over yet, though. There are still two more episodes remaining.

How come no one on “House” ever realizes that the original diagnosis will ALWAYS be wrong? “We started treating the patient for mono. The medicine nearly killed her, though. Turns out she has Münchausen syndrome. Oops.” I once talked with a doctor about the show. She said they generally don’t try to kill a patient in order to find out what’s wrong.
