Ellen DeGeneres + Academy Awards = Celebrity Bashing with a Heart
This year’s Academy Awards will be hosted by the ubiquitous and lovable Ellen DeGeneres. Not a bad choice. Ellen’s quick on her feet, not afraid to speak her mind, and will no doubt piss off some people who need to be taken down a notch.
But there's something else Ellen brings to the table -- she truly understands the consequences of leading a very public private life. While Jon Stewart, Chris Rock, David Letterman, and Billy Crystal may not be able to walk into a Wal-Mart without getting mobbed, the details of Ellen’s personal life have been incredibly public for a long time now. As if relationships aren’t hard enough, try coming out on national television while dating another celebrity.

MeeVee Exclusive! Interview with NCIS Star Michael Weatherly, Part II
In Part II of our exclusive interview with NCIS star Michael Weatherly, we learn much about the man behind the dorky hat -- mainly about his hearty appetite for independent films. Michael also shares the scoop on what really went down on the set of Dark Angel.
You’re in your trailer right now. What’s around you -- what do you see?
Ah, I’ve got a picture of a sunset, or sunrise -- hard to tell from the photo -- from the Australian Network Ten that airs our show, and it’s a man going for a swim on the Bronte Beach in Sydney. So I’ve got a beautiful photograph of a beach. I’ve got my movies all around me.

MeeVee Exclusive! Interview with Casper Van Dien and Catherine Oxenberg, Part II
In Part II of our interview with real-life husband-and-wife team Casper Van Dien and Catherine Oxenberg, stars of MyNetworkTV's juicy Watch Over Me, the "average" married couple talks about upcoming projects, modeling at Harvard, and life as a princess.
Casper, I wanted to ask you about Starship Troopers. The original was so successful, as was the sequel. Why a third one?
Casper: [The sequel] made money, but a lot of people said they didn't like it, because none of the original cast was brought back, and because it was like a zombie movie in space and it didn't really follow Starship Troopers at all. It was pretty much called Starship Troopers, but it was as far away from being Starship Troopers as you could be and still have the movie. So I think what they wanted to do was go back to the roots of doing what Starship Troopers was.
Totally Frakked: Heroes -- Expect the Unexpected
Heroes
Title: “Unexpected”
First Aired: 2/19/07
For the first time since...well, for the first time ever, an episode of Heroes plods along at a predictable, boring pace. Sylar sucks the brains out of a torch-wielding metal shop mama and suffers crippling earaches; Hiro and the attack of the 50-foot woman Hope goes nowhere; Matt and Janice fight over the bag of diamonds. Blah, blah, blah. If not for the final moments of the closing act living up to the episode’s title, viewers might have wondered whether there was any truth in Chapter 16’s advertising.
