Hulu.com: Will Ferrell's 10 Best SNL Sketches Ever
14 May 2012 9:00 AM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
Will Ferrell's been gone from "SNL" for 10 years now. I don't know how we've kept it together since then, as Americans. He was the closest thing to this country's Kim Jong-Il: Everyone would cry in the street if he died, and sunglasses made him look like something in one of the saltwater tanks at Sea World.
Plus, he defined our moral fiber there for a few years. If there was a Will Ferrell Constitution, it would almost exclusively tell us that it's awesome to yell at helpless dogs, and that you desperately need to get off the damn shed. That was the turn of the century in a nutshell.
Well, thank god, Will Ferrell's back on Saturday hosting "SNL." We get a reminder of the good ol' days, when he could talk about the moon as a food product for five minutes and that would be considered a complete sketch. »

Earth Day Salute: The 10 Best Celebrity Eco Warrior Stories Of The Year

Happy Earth Day, everyone. We know you’re reading this post on your solar-powered laptop while on a break from cleaning litter off the beach or planting trees, right? Well, we’ll let you get back to work soon, but first, we just wanted to honor the environmentally minded celebrities who’ve inspired us to hug some trees this year. They are rich and have more free time than us to devote to green causes, sure, but they could be wasting all their cash on gas-guzzlers and paper plates and exotic animal hunting too. Here are 10 recent headlines that made us, and Mother Earth smile:

TV Review: Spartacus Vengeance 2.10, ‘The Wrath of the Gods’ – Season Finale
4 April 2012 12:46 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Warning: Spoilers
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
After an incredible build up through a fascinating and bloodied series we finally reach the season finale, which doesn’t waste time in getting started.
Just as Mira (Katrina Law) and Spartacus (Liam McIntyre) seem to be reforming their shattered relationship, Mira’s heart is literally broken as an axe embeds itself in her chest. Not only is this early casualty an alarming twist of events plot wise but allows McIntyre opportunity for an impressive performance. His initial silence speaks louder than his screams as he stares openly at his hands, still stained with her blood. It is at now we truly understand how it is Mira’s blood along with that of Sura, Varro and so many others which continue to stain his conscience once his hands are washed clean. It seems it took her death to force Spartacus to return to the »

'Spartacus: Vengeance': Steven DeKnight explains the shocking finale
3 April 2012 3:30 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
We got a chance to chat with "Spartacus: Vengeance" creator Steven DeKnight about what has to be one of the most shocking season finales in TV history. There are serious spoilers coming, so if you haven't watched it yet, avert your eyes. DeKnight tells us about the deaths, incest and who was safe until the very last moment.
Half of the cast is off to Hades after the finale. It was a blood bath! "I think I've taken the Joss Whedon school of death and destruction to a new level," DeKnight laughs. "We really did kind of clean house. To me it's all part and parcel of what does the story need and where is the story going.
DeKnight talks about killing off Lucretia (Lucy Lawless). "When I was first approached to bring her back, I was adamant that she die with Batiatus (John Hannah) to wrap up that story line. »

Spartacus Vengeance to Spartacus Season 3

Spartacus Vengeance and the future of Starz’ Spartacus (season 3) Clarified
Spartacus: Vengeance aired its finale this past Friday and it was certainly a game changer for the series, leaving us, the fans, wondering: where will Season 3 take us? Not only was it an epic episode of television in general, but also it went out killing off an incredible six of the major characters. If your eyes didn’t bug out then you must not have read that properly, so I’ll say again: six main characters died. That’s a huge number for a television show! You almost never see that. One or two, yes. Sometimes three. But six? It’s not often a network agrees to killing of characters, but this is Starz. They aren’t your usual network. Subscription cable sort of does whatever it wants.
In an interview with TVLine, executive producer Steven S. DeKnight spoke about »

Liam McIntyre On The 'Spartacus: Vengeance' Finale 'Death Factory'
2 April 2012 9:57 AM, PDT | Access Hollywood | See recent Access Hollywood news »
"Spartacus: Vengeance" wrapped up its Season 2 run on Friday with another bloody shocker.
Several major characters were killed off, including Spartacus' former leading lady -- Mira (Katrina Law), Ashur (Nick Tarabay), Oenomaus (Peter Mensah), Lucretia (Lucy Lawless) and Glaber (Craig Parker).
"It really, really blows you out of the water. I can't believe they did that -- to that extent," series star Liam McIntyre told AccessHollywood.com, as he chatted about the final episode in Season 2. "That was just a death factory. It's heartbreak after heartbreak."
The actor said filming Glaber's very, very gory end (Spartacus ...

'Spartacus: Vengeance' finale -- did that actually just happen?
31 March 2012 3:24 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
"Spartacus: Vengeance" aired it's finale last night and fans are still reeling. No one is safe! If you haven't watched it yet, please stop here. You're going to get some major spoilers and believe us when we say, you do not want to miss seeing this live.
You've been warned. So, holy crap on a cracker! This may be a record for killing off major characters. "Spartacus" is always shocking and thrilling to watch, and there is always guaranteed to be buckets of blood, but this was insane! Major characters dying off everywhere, with Mira (Katrina Law) dying in the first few minutes of the show.
The deaths clear the way for some new actors. They also leave us able to leave the ludus once and for all. After all, Lucretia (Lucy Lawless) -- and we're warning you again to skip this if you haven't seen it -- threw herself »

TV Review: Spartacus Vengeance – Episode 10: Wrath of the Gods

Spartacus Vengeance – Episode 10: Wrath Of The Gods
Stars: Liam McIntyre, Peter Mensah, Manu Bennett, Viva Bianca, Craig Parker, Katrina Law, Lucy Lawless, Dan Feuerriegel, Nick Tarabay, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Dustin Clare | Written by Steven S. DeKnight | Directed by Jesse Warn
The final episode of Spartacus: Vengeance does not let up for one minute. Like the final episodes of the both Blood & Sand and Gods of the Arena the majority of it is action and emotion. A great finale to a great season, and one that cemented McIntyre as the new Spartacus.
There is a huge downside to this episode, and that is lots of great characters die. To quote a scene from The Wire “Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuuuuuck!” So many fan favourites buy the farm this week, and it’s a shame to see them go, but every death drives the bigger story. No one is safe, well except maybe Spartacus, »

Lucy Lawless & 'Spartacus' Creator Talk Shocking Finale
31 March 2012 9:20 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Don't read this unless you've seen the March 30 season finale of Starz's "Spartacus: Vengeance."
I propose a name change for "Spartacus: Vengeance." It's clunkier, but maybe it should be called "We Just Killed Your Favorite Character."
As we all know by now, "Spartacus" creator Steven DeKnight does not mind killing characters off, and you may even wonder if he revels in the bloodshed that occurs near the end of every season of the show. But "revels" isn't the right word: Having interviewed him several times, it's clear to me that DeKnight loves the show's characters as much as fans do, and yet, when it's time for them to go, he's willing to off them, usually in spectacular fashion.
Welcome to the afterlife, Ashur, Lucretia, Oenemaus, Ilythia, Glaber and Mira. We'll miss you.
As much as I regret having to say goodbye these characters, as I said in my review of "Wrath of the Gods, »

Spartacus: Vengeance 2.10 "Wrath of the Gods" Review
Starz
Spartacus: Vengeance concludes its bloody fight in the aftermath of Spartacus: Blood and Sand, igniting its tenth and final season finale episode "Wrath of the Gods," as Spartacus desperately attempts to lead his rebels to survival after being trapped upon Mt. Vesuvius by Gaius Claudius Glaber. A richly satisfying finale, "Wrath of the Gods" thoroughly puts the cap on what's been an incredibly strong sophomore outing for the show, and TV at large.
Wow, hell of a ride this season of Spartacus: Vengeance has been, hasn’t it? Hard to believe it’s already over. Well, I’ll go ahead and say it. I’m a little disappointed with “Wrath of the Gods.” I wish to hell that I never realized Spartacus was based on actual events, and as such Starz’s incarnation would follow a rough outline of historical events, as »

Spartacus: Vengeance wrapped its 10-episode season Friday with a breathtakingly action-packed and staggeringly lethal episode.

Maureen Ryan: Holy $#*%: 'Spartacus: Vengeance's' Insane Finale!

Don't read this unless you've seen the March 30 season finale of Starz's "Spartacus: Vengeance."
Holy shit, right?
A few days ago on Twitter, after I said that fans would be yelling "Holy shit" after the "Spartacus: Vengeance" season finale, a fan responded to me with a question: Could anything in the season's final episode top the moment in which Ilythia killed Seppia and then had sex with Glaber?
I'm going to say the answer is yes.
Let's review, shall we? "Spartacus" killed off Oenomaus (No!); "Spartacus" killed off Glaber by shoving a sword down his throat (okay, so he had it coming, but damn, I loved that character this season); "Spartacus" killed off Ashur (Ok, so I saw that one coming -- nobody who predicts a golden future for themselves ever lives long on this show, but damn! Ashur!); "Spartacus" killed off Lucretia (Noooooo!); and not only that, the show killed off a newborn baby, »

Lucy Lawless ("Spartacus," "Xena"), Robyn Malcolm ("Rake," "Outrageous Fortune") and Jay Ryan ("Sea Patrol," "Neighbours") have all joined the cast of Jane Campion's six-part mini-series "Top Of The Lake".
Elisabeth Moss plays a detective who loses herself investigating the disappearance of the 12-year-old pregnant daughter of a local drug lord in remote, mountainous New Zealand. David Wenham, Peter Mullan and Holly Hunter also star. [Source: The Playlist]
The fifth season premiere of AMC period drama "Mad Men" averaged 3.5 million viewers (1.6 million adults 18-49), up 21% from Season 4′s debut and the series’ largest audience ever. An additional 900,000 watched the 11 Pm encore.
That number however is a far cry from the record-breaking season finale of "The Walking Dead" the other week which pulled in 9 million viewers. [Source: Deadline]
