In "Enemies Closer," airing at 9 p.m. Feb. 10 on USA, A black ops sociopath played by Chris Vance insists Michael Weston (Donovan) meet in a hot tub to insure no bugging devices are being used.
David Letterman and Oprah Winfrey reprised their famous 2007 Super Bowl party ad tonight, but with a special guest: Jay Leno.
CBS says the spot was taped earlier in the week at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City, but I wonder if Leno actually was there or added later.
The one-time only ad for "Late Show with David Letterman" aired early in the second quarter during CBS' coverage of Super Bowl XLIV on Sunday.
"Cool huh?" That's what "Stargate Universe" director of photography Jim Menard asks the camera during one of the tons of extras on "SGU 1.0" Blu-ray DVD set.
My answer? Hells yeah!
White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel returned to "Saturday Night Live" in the form of Andy Samberg's foul-mouthed, funny spoof of the Chicago native.
The sketch outdid anything else during Ashton Kutcher's fourth stint as "SNL" host.
Emanuel this week apologized to the CEO of the Special Olympics for calling progressive Democrats an expletive-laden form of "retards" in a closed-door meeting last summer. The issue surfaced last week when in a Wall Street Journal report that caused Sarah Palin to call Emanuel out in a Facebook message.
Samberg's sketch had Emanuel giving an "even-tempered apology" to Americans that quickly went blue:
"As for the progressive Democrats whom I used the term in reference to, I should never have called you that," Samberg's Emanuel said, turning angry. "What I should have called you was [bleeping] babies, stupid [bleeping] babies who can't keep their mouths shut.
Looks like a does of jealousy is going to mix with all the spy fun on the latest "Chuck." In "Chuck Versus the Mask," airing at 7p.m. Feb. 8, Hannah gets sucked into the spy world. As you can see in the sneak peek here, Chuck and Sarah have some words about Shaw and Hannah. Meow. I added some interview shorts with guest stars Brandon Routh and Kristin Kreuk.
Misha Collins returns to "Supernatural" this week in a Valentine's Day themed episode called "My Bloody Valentine." But Collins' angel Castiel won't be alone: Cupid and a Horseman will be on hand, no doubt causing trouble for Sam and Dean Winchester. The episode airs at 8 p.m. Feb. 11 on CW.

The makers of "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" put Andy Whitfield and his gladiator-playing co-stars to the test when they filmed the series' freshman season last year
Fitness training, special diets, lessons in wielding the various ancient weapons, fight preparation--and that was before filming began. It was raw, sweaty and rough on the New Zealand set as well, and especially hard on Whitfield because Spartacus is something of a punching bag in early episodes.
If you watched last week's episode of "Spartacus: Blood and Sand," you probably asked the same question I did: "Did Romans really use fluffers?"
Executive producer Steven S. DeKnight didn't directly answer the question when I asked during a recent conference call, but did explain that the writers consult two PhD candidates at UCLA, Aaron Irving and Jeffery Stevens, to give them details about ancient Rome.
"They were fantastic with their details," DeKnight said. "When we were breaking a story, we'd send them a question and 10 minutes later, we'd get a four-page response because they have all this information at their fingertips ... They were completely invaluable."
