Adam Sandler's Thanksgiving song: Watch a 'Saturday Night Live' classic

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 15:58:41 +0000

Thanksgiving is sadly lacking in carols of its own; one of the most enduring of that small crowd is Adam Sandler 's "Saturday Night Live" ode to turkey. The then-"SNL" Not Ready for Prime Time Player praised in song the Thanksgiving dinner's traditional centerpiece, plus worked in references to athletes Daryl Strawberry and Mike Tyson. Okay, some of those don't hold up well these years later, but it's still a great song. Don't miss Sandler's duet with "SNL" co-star Kevin Nealon .

'Lost' vs. 'Glee': Who ya got?

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:15:53 +0000

"Glee" is already a pretty heavily DVR'ed show, adding an average of 1.67 million viewers per episode this season via delayed viewing. That could go up -- maybe by a lot -- come spring. When "Glee" returns in the spring, the fiercely loved cult hit will be going up against another show with a rabid fan base: "Lost." The ABC series will be entering the home stretch of its six-season run by then, with likely only seven episodes remaining when "Glee" comes back on April 13. In the grand scheme of things, the "Lost"-"Glee" showdown will probably be a battle for, at best, second place. Neither show is likely to beat "NCIS: Los Angeles," which is averaging close to 17 million viewers this season ("Glee" is at 8.5 million, and "Lost" last year drew 11.3 million viewers a week). But in terms of fan obsession, few other shows on TV can match "Glee" and "Lost." So our question to you, Zap2it readers, is a simple one: Which one will you watch first? Does your heart lie on the Island with Sawyer, Kate, ...

'Glee': Lea Michele and cast celebrate 'Last Christmas' together

Is it just us, or does a song redone by the " Glee " crew always breathe new life into an oldie-but-goodie tune? We've experienced this phenomenon with "Don't Stop Believin'," "Gold Digger" and "Somebody To Love" but Lea Michele and the show's cast now has a special holiday surprise on tap, teaming up to perform "Wham!"'s classic hit "Last Christmas" for iTunes.

Taylor Lautner, James Franco to host 'Saturday Night Live'

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 20:37:25 +0000

"Saturday Night Live" has landed Taylor Lautner, wolfy guy from "Twilight's New Moon" as a host. Ooh, maybe there will be a Taylor Swift cameo! Lautner and James Franco are the two newest names to be added to "SNL's" December hosting lineup, according to "Access Hollywood," after "Gossip Girl's" Blake Lively was revealed as the Dec. 5 host , paired with Rihanna as musical guest.

'How I Met Your Mother': Amanda Peet to play Marshall's co-worker

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 19:35:20 +0000

When Neil Patrick Harris has an idea, the powers-that-be at " How I Met Your Mother " apparently pay attention. Early last week, while on-set for the CBS comedy's 100th episode celebration, NPH told reporters that Amanda Peet would be a person he'd love to see on the show. "I really like her," Harris said. "I think that would be fun." Days later, her deal was done. Peet ("Something's Gotta Give," "The Whole Nine Yards") will guest star on an episode titled "Jenkins" early next year. She will play Marshall ( Jason Segel )'s co-worker. The actress, last seen on television regularly in NBC's defunct "Studio 60 on The Sunset Strip" has most recently been working on the upcoming "Gulliver's Travels" film, in which Segel will star as well .

By Gil Kaufman OMG Girlz Photo: Major Productions Taking a break on Monday from a shoot for the second season of her BET reality show, "Tiny & Toya," T.I.'s fiancée, Tameka "Tiny" Cottle , talked up her latest project, a girl group called OMG Girlz. Tiny, who knows a bit about being in a girl group thanks to her 1990s run in Xscape (not to mention her hand in penning TLC's mega-hit "No Scrubs"), said she's helping to shepherd the debut by the group, which features her daughter, Zonnique (a.k.a. Star) as well as the offspring of Lil Wayne and his ex-wife, Antonia "Toya" Carter, Reginae (a.k.a. Baby Carter). The preteen/teen quartet (ages 11 to 13) also includes members Basha (a.k.a.

"The Vengeance Formulation" might be my favorite Big Bang Theory so far this season. It didn't have any single plotline that was as sustained in hilarity as last week's Sheldon and Penny extravaganza, but both plotlines were warmly funny, both treated the characters as actual human beings, and both managed to - gasp! - continue with plots introduced in previous episodes. I think I've said before that The Big Bang Theory is a very good show that's not quite a great one, but there are times when the great show it could be peeks through from behind whatever ...

Best episode ever? Of the season, I mean. I had a feeling ahead of time that Joseph Gordon-Levitt could pull off a good show--I liked him on 3rd Rock from the Sun and if, as a kid, he could be funny next to French Stewart (and I guess, John Lithgow too) I figured he might be able to pull off at the very least an energetic performance on SNL. I liked that in his monologue he made fun of his indie darling status and then really worked his ass off during "Make 'Em Laugh," complete with singing, cartwheels, pratfalls, punches ...
