SmallvilleEven though the hype factor spiked to something like 25 on a scale of 1 to 10 regarding Smallville's 100th episode (you know, the one where someone close to Clark will die!), I really tried to be good and stay spoiler-free. But, of course, that didn't stop my inquiring mind from speculating. And I felt in my gut that the doomed one was going to be either Lana or Jonathan. And when Lana died, I just knew it was too easy. That first half of the show seemed like the recent Lexmas dream: It was all very fleeting and just not real. So when Clark begged his bioDad to let Lana live, I knew Mr. Kent was in trouble. After I finally accepted the inevitable — that Jonathan was gonna die — I became a tad bit weepy. Not so much for the character, but for the actor. John Schneider

The Office "Somebody did something bad to Michael's carpet. Maybe that's all we need to know." Oh, come now, Pam — you know that's not how we do things here. Admittedly, I'm a little turned off that the bulk of this week's story revolves around some good old-fashioned potty humor (or, I suppose, looks-like-somebody-missed-the-potty humor), but seeing as how my adoration for all things Dunder-Mifflin knows no bounds, I'm more than willing to appreciate the episode's finer, non-poo-related points. For starters, how hilarious is Mindy Kaling? Finally, we get a major peek into background-player Kelly's world, from her closet engineer's shortcomings to her lusty designs on Ryan the temp. ("I mean, I'm not a slut, but who knows?") I daresay she's got the chops to enter into the sitcom motormo

First off, loving all of you who wrote in with replies to last week's survey. I'd list y'all by name, but that would take, like, all night and really, Pepito the Wonder Chihuahua is due for a marathon scratch session. So let's just have a big group hug, OK? That was fun.
Now, since this week's episode was so time-warpy — and plain old warped — I gotta throw out a few more questions. And remember, you will be graded on this.1) If Awful Alex M. asked Jason the Chronic Cheater to winter formal before he hooked up with Poor Dumb Jessica, how come it seems like all this flirty drama just started? Things to consider: Talan's longer hair and notoriously questionable reality-TV editing.2) Taking another girl's guy to a dance: skanky or slutty? 3) Exactly how many "friends with benefits" does Kristin have?! And did that Ian dude get a free sample of Herpecin with the tux rental? 4) On a scale of 1 to 10, how cheated did

Question: In the late '70s or early to mid-'80s there was a television show called Merlin. The lead character was Merlin, played by Barnard Hughes. Who played the part of Arthur? Thank you.
Answer: Actually, the show was called Mr. Merlin and there wasn't an Arthur in sight. There was, however, a Zac (Clark Brandon), who, one could argue, filled the Arthur role (provided you forget all about Arthur wielding a legendary sword, being cuckolded by his best pal, sending his friends on a disastrous quest etc.).
Max Merlin (Blossom's Hughes) was the ancient magician, who by the early '80s had moved from grand castles and sorcery to a San Francisco garage and fixing cars. The fun began when he decided to teach Zac the wonders of sorcery, whereupon the new apprentice launched into the usual problems with spells gone awry and the troubles of keeping hi

Blossom's Joey Lawrence has accepted a recurring role on UPN's Half & Half, which technically puts him far closer to retirement than Eminem ever was. He'll play a new coworker of law-school grad DeeDee's in at least six episodes you're highly unlikely to see.
