About Last Night…DEXTER, HOMELAND and LEVERAGE

So if you haven’t watched, don’t ruin the episodes for yourself. Go watch then and then come back and tell me what you thought of what went down.

For those of you who did watch, let’s talk…

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE: Tina Fey, Jimmy Fallon, Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers Have a Weekend Update ‘Joke Off’

SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE’s Weekend Update is usually the highlight of the show for me, but on the last episode of 2011, they put the icing on top of the already delicious cake.

With former SNL-er Jimmy Fallon as the guest host, I was hoping he would join the current Weekend Update host Seth Meyer at the desk. Instead, we got something even better: an old-fashioned “joke off” where Fallon brought in former co-host, Tina Fey, and Meyer recruited his former co-host, Amy Poehler.

Take a look!

It’s hard to believe, but THE BIG BANG THEORY taped their 100th episode this week. Where the heck does time go?!

Alicia Silverstone Heads to SUBURGATORY

It looks like Dallas has some competition coming her way when it comes to George’s heart on ABC’s SUBURGATORY: Warner Bros. has confirmed that Alicia Silverstone will be appearing on the freshman comedy.

According to TVLine — who was first to report the casting — not only will Silverstone be a potential love interest for George (who is played by her former CLUELESS costar Jeremy Sisto), but her arrival will also create trouble between him and Noah. With all that potential drama, it’s no surprise Silverstone is currently scheduled for a multi-episode arc.

So, Paul Rudd, any chance you’d be willing to stop by SUBURGATORY, too?
