This post isn’t intended for newbies — if you’ve never spent any time with the Bluth gang, you should definitely start at the very beginning and watch straight through. Instead, if you’re a banana stand regular who hasn’t dropped by the model home recently, read on for the best episodes to »

'Fast & Furious': 10 take-aways after an all-day franchise marathon
6 hours ago
In anticipation of Fast & Furious 6, I sat down one glorious Sunday afternoon to marathon the entire series. With a bottle of wine (okay, two), I made my way through The Fast and the Furious, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast & Furious, and Fast Five from approximately 1 p.m. to 1 a.m. (I took a few breaks). Here is where my head was at after nearly 10 hours of muscles, cars, and muscle cars.
1. The one that started it all…

'Suits' makes EW's Summer Must List -- the stars give us theirs
8 hours ago
Entertainment Weekly’s annual Summer Must List issue hits stands today, and readers eagerly awaiting the July 16 return of USA’s Suits will be happy to see the legal drama makes the cut. On May 15, we sat down with stars Gabriel Macht, 41, and Patrick J. Adams, 31, and asked what tops their lists. Their banter — which gets particularly enjoyable when the subject turns to their different tastes in music — may just tide fans over.
Entertainment Weekly: So what’s on your Summer Must List?
Patrick J. Adams: [Shouts] The Daft Punk album! I can’t stop listening to that.
Gabriel Macht: Season 1 of The Wire. »

Season Finale Round-Up: Our TV critics on 'The Office,' 'Bates Motel,' 'Doctor Who,' 'Arrow,' 'Nashville' and more
11 hours ago
‘Tis the season to end the TV season. A time of apocalyptic cliffhangers, teary eyed goodbyes, and of course, angry runaway wedding-crashing badgers. Speaking of spoilers: There will be a lot of them in our critical assessment of the year’s most notable finales so far, from The Office to Nashville to one not-so-happy Happy Endings. If your DVR cue is clogged with deferred climaxes… well, you should get that checked out, because it sounds painful. You should also not read everything that follows this colon:

Mariah Carey swears, has a wardrobe issue on 'Good Morning America' -- Video
11 hours ago
Mariah Carey had a few problems on live TV this morning.
The singer accidentally said, “Oh s–t” on Good Morning America. She recovered by saying, “You didn’t hear that, I said shoot.” Watch her slip below:
To make matters worse, her dress also popped open in the back.
“What should we call this? The Central Park saga?” she asks anchor Lara Spencer, while someone tried to fix her outfit. “Or hey, I’ll just hold ‘em up the whole time. What are you gonna do?”

'Arrested Development': Who's the most quotable Bluth? Poll
13 hours ago
One of Arrested Development 1.0′s greatest strengths was its knack for giving every single character (“Steve Holt!”), no matter how minor (“Baby, you got a stew going”), a full array of endlessly repeatable lines (“Say goodbye to these!”). That said, the show’s true quote-masters have to be the dysfunctional Bluth-Fünke clan. Nearly everything that originates with this ennead is worthy of being embroidered onto a sampler and framed, or at least written in caps and superimposed over a still from the show. (Or a still from Game of Thrones!)
But among these Lords of Laughter, which Bluth-slash-Fünke reigns supreme? »

10 things we learned from Billy Joel's big 'New York Times Magazine' interview
16 hours ago
Has it really been 20 years since Billy Joel released his last pop album? Somehow, it’s true: Though the Piano Man has toured extensively, won a Tony, and even put out a collection of classical compositions over the last two decades, he hasn’t dropped an original chart-topper since 1993′s River of Dreams.
But why? Well, according to an extensive interview in this week’s New York Times magazine, the answer’s simple: “I got bored with it,” Joel says. “I wanted to write something other than the three-minute pop tune even though that’s an art form unto itself. »

Woohoo! 'Simpsons' fans rejoice! Universal Studios is building Springfield
23 May 2013 5:23 PM, PDT
Omg! Omg! Omg!
This could be the greatest news for Simpsons obsessives since those 7-Elevens were converted into Kwik-e-Marts to celebrate the release of the Simpsons movie.
Springfield, home of the three-eyed fish and hometown of Jebediah Springfield, is becoming a reality at Universal Studios’ Orlando amusement park.
While rumors have been floating for a while, Universal Studios officially announced today that they are expanding the area around the Simpsons Ride in Orlando to include an entire area that mimics the streets of Springfield. “And yes – there will be Duff Beer,” a release said.
Some of the attractions will include a Krusty Burger, »

Pop Culture Pet Peeve: Chain your door if you're in danger!
23 May 2013 1:13 PM, PDT
While we’re busy celebrating the best (and worst) in TV season finales, let’s also take a moment to air random grievances. One of my biggest pop culture pet peeves was poked by Law & Order: Svu’s season ender last night: People who know they could be in danger and do not use the chain on their door. Yes, the chain probably won’t do much, but isn’t it just human nature to use it if it’s there? Especially if, say, the sadistic serial rapist you were trying to put away — the one who likes to torture »

Lucille Bluth vs. the Disney Princesses
23 May 2013 12:31 PM, PDT
So I went a little nuts with Vine!
Mere days before Netflix’s May 26 Arrested Development binge, boozy-witchy Bluth matriarch Lucille has generously taken time out of her day-drinking to snap some sense into the damsels of Disney. They could all stand to lose some weight, by the way. You want your belt to buckle, not your chair. (Click the microphones on and off to hear the audio.)

Robert Kirkman talks about his crime comic 'Thief of Thieves.' Plus: check out the first four pages of the new issue -- Exclusive
23 May 2013 11:49 AM, PDT
Walking Dead comic writer Robert Kirkman may be King of the Zombies (or at least crown prince to George A. Romero’s Z-monarch) but he also toils on a number of undead-free titles, including the superhero-filled Invincible, the kiddie-aimed Super Dinosaur, and Thief of Thieves. The latter details the adventures of a light-fingered master criminal named Conrad Paulson and is produced by Kirkman in collaboration with other writers, including Andy Diggle (The Losers) whose first issue hits stores May 29.

Cars and the women who love them: Random hot girls in the 'Fast & Furious' films
23 May 2013 11:20 AM, PDT
The Fast & Furious sextet features many kickass babes — including Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Gal Gadot, Eva Mendes, Gina Carano, and Mrs. Chris Hemsworth. But it also has a lot of women who just love hanging around cars — in the least amount of clothing possible. Here are our favorites from the first five films — and what we believe they are thinking.
“That girl must also shop at the ‘Britney Spears circa ’98′ outlet.”
“We don’t have thoughts, we’re just a pair of bare midriffs.”
“When was the last time my roots were touched up?”

Morgan Freeman knows the meaning of a power nap -- Video
23 May 2013 11:19 AM, PDT
Is cinema legend Morgan Freeman falling asleep during this on-air interview while his Now You See Me costar Michael Caine answers a question? We know Morgan Freeman is very intelligent and contemplative, so he could just be closing his eyes to think. Except he kind of does that thing where you catch yourself after nodding off.
Watch the clip below and decide if he’s a power nap master or just a really serious thinker:
Now You See Me opens May 31.

23 May 2013 10:51 AM, PDT
Family love Michael and we all love the Bluths. In the lead-up to the fourth season premiere of Arrested Development on Netflix this Sunday, I thought back on the sweetest, most tender moments from the show’s whole crew. Of course, since this is Arrested – even their most heartwarming scenes have some kind of twisted take.
Check out a few moments that had viewers cringing and “aww-ing” all at once below (like George Michael and Maeby’s entire relationship!), and then add your own picks in the comments.

'Fast & Furious 6' star Michelle Rodriguez wishes there were better female superheroes
23 May 2013 9:47 AM, PDT
Hollywood has a go-to tough girl, and her name is Michelle Rodriguez. Ever since her breakout role in Girlfight, the 2000 indie where she played a troubled teen who finds her identity through boxing, Rodriguez has dominated the market on roles that call for a tough, no-nonsense beauty who can throw a punch without breaking her withering glare. Not only is she the alpha-female in the Fast and the Furious franchise, but she piloted a space chopper in Avatar, played a vengeful ex-cop on Lost, and scrapped with aliens in Battle: Los Angeles.

Helen Mirren plays Queen to fulfill dying boy's wish
23 May 2013 9:20 AM, PDT
Dame Helen Mirren is just as classy as you think.
Oliver Burton, who was born with Down’s syndrome and had recently been diagnosed with cancer, had a dying wish to meet Queen Elizabeth II. When that wasn’t possible, Mirren stepped in.
The actress, who is currently playing the Queen in a West End performance of The Audience, invited Burton and his family to see the show and then the 10-year-old was brought backstage to meet a still-in-character Mirren. The two drank tea together while Oliver played with the corgis featured in the show, according to the Daily Mail. »

Oops! A Psy lookalike hung out with a bunch of real celebrities at Cannes
23 May 2013 8:56 AM, PDT
Korean pop sensation Psy has been making the rounds at various events during the Cannes Film Festival. Except…that wasn’t Psy. “Seems like there’s another Me at cannes … say Hi to him,” the real Psy tweeted yesterday.
Those who didn’t realize their mistake include actress/Bond girl Naomie Harris, Portland Trail Blazers player Nicolas Batum, and Adrien Brody. Even the photo service FilmMagic was initially fooled, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Psy, meanwhile, seems to be keeping tabs on his clone, tweeting a photo of someone else’s photo with the impostor.
The festival hasn’t issued a statement on the mix-up. »
