Michael Douglas Lends Voice to NBC Nightly News | Today's News: Our Take | 12/18/2007
That voice you are now hearing introducing anchorman Brian Williams at the top of each NBC Nightly Newscast belongs to none other than Gordon Gekko. Recalling the decision to recruit Michael Douglas' pipes, Williams tells the AP, "I appealed to Michael's sense of romance and sentimentality and his love of the industry.... I called him and said, 'On top of all you've done as an actor, producer and Academy Award winner, this will mean a small slice of immortality in our industry. It also means... read more
Gandhi with the Wind: Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones India-Bound | Today's News: Our Take | 9/14/2007
When I need to get away, I plan a weekend at the Jersey shore. But Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas? When they get wanderlust, they plan to shoot a movie in India. "We will take our kids and all of us will come there, set up camp… and shoot a film," the Chicago vamp told The Times of India but declined to get into specifics about the pic. As long as Zeets isn't hidden behind a sari, I know Mitovich'll be down with it. read more

Crashing the Celeb Golf Tournament | Ben's Real Wedding Crashers Blog | 5/5/2007
Thanks to all of you who have been watching The Real Wedding Crashers [Mondays at 10 pm/ET, on NBC]. People keep asking me for insight into the next episode, so I may as well give it all away. This is actually one of my favorite episodes. There are pranks involving a mishap at a tanning salon and an audition for wedding singers. I got to play three different characters: a horrible wedding singer with neck tattoos, an animal rights protestor, and, of course, an annoying wedding guest. I really... read more
Pick of the Week: April 10, 2007 | Commentary Track | 4/4/2007
It's another week of slim pickings when it comes to quality TV-on-DVD releases (I can't wait until August/September when all the new, loaded sets come out). It's a bit odd, but the releases this week fall into three categories: old shows, animated shows and British shows. I selected one of the old shows as the "Pick of the Week": The Streets of San Francisco, Season 1, Volume 1. The acclaimed police drama starring Karl Malden and a very young Michael Douglas came out in 1972, and this four-disc... read more
