South Park Casualty Count: ‘Fudge Packing with the Stars’

Last week on South Park , Cartman and the crew explored the social networking phenomenon while a loner with a bad hairline named Kip Drordy accumulated friends from the comfort of his bedroom. This week, the boys returned for a very special 200th episode that brought back every celebrity the show had skewered in its 14 seasons. After the jump, Movieline tallies the stars buried in South Park last night and explains what Tom Cruise was doing in the chocolate factory.

Dancing with the Stars Elimination: Remembering Aiden Turner (Do You?)

Dancing with the Stars gave us a week off from emotionally grueling elimination episodes last night. Well, you might not have endured a dark, spiritual upheaval when Shannen Doherty and Buzz Aldrin were eliminated — but those exits were at least caked with warm sentimentality, Goner Aiden Turner tried for the same effect, but too late: I can only remember one thing I liked about him this season.

3 Helpful Tips to Keep the V Resistance From Self-Destructing

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from V (other than the fact that retroactive continuity really can exist after just six episodes) it’s that if aliens showed up tomorrow dolling out free health care, humans would put up an embarrassingly ill-conceived resistance. In last night’s episode, Erica and Co. spent the whole hour tracking down the fabled Fifth Column leader John May (Oh hey, Michael Trucco!) so she and Ryan could communicate with the Visitor ship, only to find out John May doesn’t live after all. Lisa drives a wedge even further between Tyler and Erica when she tells him his dad isn’t really his dad, and Chad Decker continues to compromise his journalistic integrity. But week after week, it’s the bumbling resistance that disappoints me most of all. After the jump, find out how our heroes could have worked just a little bit harder to save all our human skins.

Dancing with the Stars Recap: Introducing the Bruno Tonioli Heart-Attack Meter

Instead of grading yesterday Dancing with the Stars ‘s rumba/tango night using the judges’ scores as a rubric, why don’t we base the winning performance on what really matters? I’m talking about how close judge Bruno Tonioli came to a staggering heart attack. That’s the tell of real artistry. After the jump, we revisit the nine remaining performers’ routines, rate Tonioli’s bodily response on a scale from 1 (inert) to 10 (meth-splattered convulsions), and reinterpret Tonioli’s critiques as we remembered them. We also listed the real scores for your statistical pleasure.
