Happy April. Here in my part of the world, the sun is shining brightly, but I still plan to be inside a good part of this month due to movie releases like Baby Mama and Leatherheads — not to mention the great TV returning this month. In addition to new movies and good TV, this April brings some fabulous new music, an exciting new read and a few Oscar darlings on DVD.

This year's Academy Awards didn't draw that many viewers, but they sure drummed up a lot of excitement here on the Sugar Network!
Before the ceremony last month, I asked you to predict the night's winners by filling out my Oscar ballot.

But these 12 Buzz readers made it look simple: Each of them got at least 15 of the winners right!

The live-action short films and animated short films from this year's Oscars are still working their way through theaters, but if the tour isn't stopping near you or you just don't have time for a trip to the movies, there's another option. All of the Oscar shorts are available on iTunes for $1.99 each.
That's really not a bad deal, considering that you could buy all 10 films for $20 — about what it would cost to see both shorts programs in the theater.

Every year in February, celebs are gifted with swag beyond my wildest dreams at The Oscars. This year, the mother of all award shows has taken note of the number of celebrities with pets — and apparently recognizing how much we all spend on our little companions — Oscar included some pretty sweet items for Fido and Sassy as well.
With past people prizes generally being electronics, spa treatments, and fancy trips, this year the goodies also included some high-end pet beauty products, clothing, and things that sparkle.
We all love a Look for Less, but when the Oscar red carpet has finished, the knockoff manufacturers kick into high gear. Which celebrities' dresses made the cut. Cachet, a New York-based eveningwear company, plans on replicating Heidi Klum's John Galliano, Anne Hathaway's Marchesa, Katherine Heigl's Escada, and Jessica Alba's eggplant-colored Marchesa, to be in stores next September.
