Sarah Palin Spoils Bristol’s ‘Passion of the Christ Paso Doble’ Surprise

Sarah Palin’s a big fan of the ol’ Twitter ( and Alaska , in case you forgot), and she just tweeted a bizarre, abbreviated, and accidentally hilarious preview of her daughter’s routines on tonight’s Dancing with the Stars . Her 140-character splendor — in all its unedited, Mel Gibson-tinged glory — is after the jump.

Gleebasing: ‘Spears Is Fierce, Yo’

There is no way to cram six Britney Spears songs into an episode of Glee organically. Or so viewers learned last night when Ryan Murphy materialized in millions of U.S. homes viewers (at once, like Santa Claus), slipped them a gnarled episode that he engineered himself and fled into the night so that his audience could experience a mediocre high with hallucinations of Uncle Jesse from Full House . “Britney/Brittany” was traumatic and disappointing and no doubt left you itching for a hit of Glee , the way Murphy used to make it. Rather than hitting the streets in desperation, review the highs and lows with Movieline below. As always, there will be a pop quiz at the end — so pay attention!

4 Issues That Could Make No Ordinary Family Very Ordinary

The premiere of ABC’ s sci-fi-family-mockumentary- Incredibles update No Ordinary Family did little to hide the fact that these suburban superhumans are pretty damn ordinary. From the looks of the ratings , the Michael Chiklis series seems destined to survive a full season. Or at least longer than Lone Star . In order to do that, though, it will have to survive its list of shortcomings.

Kristen Bell Threatens to Fund Veronica Mars Movie, Invites Warner Bros. to Man Up

“Things That Will Never Happen” Day continues here at Movieline with a threat from Kristen Bell, who is ready to make this Veronica Mars feature film a reality for herself and the approximately 7,772 people in America who still care about Veronica Mars . In fact, she is so determined to reprise the sweet-faced teenage sleuth before she turns 40 that she may even charge the big screen adaptation to her MasterCard. There’s just one problem.

Survivor Loser Review: Shameful Shannon

“Tribal Council” should just be renamed “Occasion to Mess Up.” I want Jeff Probst to sit with each week’s losing tribe and say, “Welcome to an occasion to mess up. Go.” Then the racist and homophobic and incendiary back-and-forth can begin. Last night the La Flor tribe decided to vote out its — hmmmm? — most idiotic contestant by a mile Shannon. God, what a huffy little jag. Let’s list his three biggest downfalls in yesterday’s episode of Survivor while cackling at his jag visage.

Jennifer Aniston’s Box Office Poison Infects TVs Too

Jennifer Aniston’s much-ballyhooed guest appearance on Cougar Town was similar to her recent string of theatrical releases: Disappointing. The season premiere of the Courteney Cox sitcom — which featured Aniston as a psychiatrist — drew in a little over 8 million viewers. That’s down from the 11 million people who tuned in to the series premiere last September, and also represents a significant drop from lead-in Modern Family , which was watched by 12.6 million viewers. Don’t worry, Jen: There’s always radio. [ Us ]

Dancing with the Stars Elimination: Bomb Drop!

Dancing with the Stars ‘s first elimination is always such a divine embarrassment. What compares to the moment when an oiled-up pseudo-celeb stands under a spotlight, congratulates himself on his “spirited” cha-cha-cha, and listens just long enough to hear Tom Bergeron fire his ass? Well, I enjoyed it. Now that the first loser has been declared, let’s re-watch his/her routine once more and figure out where it went wrong.

Huge Disney Flop to Become a Much-Anticipated Musical

Tony-winner Harvey Fierstein has signed on to write a libretto for a stage version of Newsies , the 1992 Disney bomb about the NYC paperboy strike of 1899. Fierstein will be aided by Academy Award-winning composer Alan Menken. The film has gained a considerable following since its poor box office performance, which once prompted star Christian Bale to note, “Time healed those wounds. But it took a while.” Newsboys are reportedly through with him professionally. [ Playbill ]
