Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher
Fifty pounds lighter, Carrie Fisher isn't afraid to criticize her former self.
"I looked awful," the actress, author and Jenny Craig spokeswoman told Extra. "I'd like to say it was my health, and be like somebody who's a good role model, [but] that was a byproduct."

Family Guy
Seth MacFarlane continues his animation domination: Fox has renewed Family Guy and The Cleveland Show, the network announced Monday.
"For nine seasons, our viewers have been cracked up, delighted, surprised and, at times, gloriously disturbed by the mind of Seth MacFarlane — and they keep coming back for more," Fox President of Entertainment Kevin Reilly said. "The Griffins and the Browns have become cornerstones of our Sunday nights, and we can't wait to find out what new adventures Seth, Mike and Rich cook up for them next season."

The Defenders
The Defenders (Friday, 8/7c, CBS)
Now here's some stunt casting to get your nostalgic juices flowing. The guest judge in this week's episode of the breezy Vegas courtroom drama is Dan Aykroyd, who clashes with Jim Belushi's Nick Morelli during a court hearing. (Aykroyd's first blast of fame came while playing alongside Jim's legendary brother John in the original Saturday Night Live cast — and later as Blues Brothers.) Even better news: ...

The Good Guys - Colin Hanks, Bradley Whitford
The Good Guys (Friday, 9/8c, Fox)
Not a great week for quirky crime-fighters. First FX gives the wonderful Terriers the boot, and now we come to the end of the line for Fox's genial but low-rated buddy-cop spoof. We will miss Bradley Whitford as gone-to-seed Dallas detective Don Stack, especially his bushy 'stache. The final episode brings back Gary Cole as Stark's legendary former partner, Frank Savage, and we also meet the ex-partner of Stark's sidekick Jack Bailey (Colin Hanks). Jack's former partner, played by American Pie's Chris Klein, has done well, now the assistant chief of the department, called in when a Mafia informant is murdered and a dirty cop is suspected. Surely not...

I literally was in tears for the last five minutes Definitely one of 30 Rocks best episodes ever Without a doubt My only grievance We were robbed of an actual Page-offCarrie Fisher who earlier this season guested on Weeds is making quite the second career out of playing the outrageous cussing rabble-rouser I loved how her former Laugh-In writer gradually was revealed to be lost in time out of touch with reality and well simply a bit demented And then it all led up to that great glorious wink to Star Wars fans Help me Liz Lemon Youre my only hope God bless them for going there Which raises a question Was Liz perhaps transferring her Star Wars fandom onto this woman who resembled LeiaThe stories though that really got my waterworks going played elsewhere It started with Jack doing a rather dead-on Redd Foxx the closed captioning even said Imitates Redd Foxx as he role-played Tracys dad Jack then trotted out a whole cast of characters inlcuding a

Carrie Fisher on 30 Rock by Anne Joyce/NBC
Cheers to 30 Rock for rolling out TV's best guest stars. Last season, Elaine Stritch won an Emmy as Jack's battle-ax of a mother (and Paul Reubens should've won one as a freakish Austrian royal). This season has already featured noteworthy cameos from Jerry Seinfeld, Steve Buscemi and now Carrie Fisher. As Liz's comedy-writing idol, Fisher expertly delivered inside jokes, including a priceless Princess Leia reference ("Help me, Liz Lemon, you're my only hope!") and a sly allusion to Fisher's own real-life babydaddy, agent Bryan Lourd, who left her for a man. ("I grew up wanting to be Samantha Stephens from Bewitched — the closest I got was being married to a gay guy for two years.") She also inspired Jack's best line of the season so far: "Don't ever make me talk to a woman that old again!" In the coming weeks, we can look forward to guest shots from Edie Falco, David Schwimmer and (allegedly) Al Gore. It's great that so many stars want to do Rock — but why aren't more n...
