Remember your first dose of cinematic geekdom? Whatever your age, it's likely the story of warring galaxies battling an evil Empire with something called "the Force" served as initiation to a lifetime of science fiction fandom. George Lucas, the master behind the epic saga of good vs. evil in Star Wars recently gave an interview to the New York Times, in which he discussed his feelings towards Read more

Lauren Bush is much more than a pretty face and famous last name. This past weekend at Pixar Animation Studios, Lauren spoke about giving back creatively at the Intersection Event, a conference on innovation. Before her panel, I caught up with the newlywed model and founder of FEED, a project to fight world hunger in conjunction with UN World Food Programme. She shared her relationship advice, Read more

I must be in the holiday spirit, because Glee made my heart grow three times this week. Early in the episode, the gang mentions how dreary last year's holidays were, what with Kurt being at another school and Sue destroying their tree and gifts, so they want to have a happier holidays.

Its host, a fresh, upbeat face named Ching He Huang, had appeared in a slew of cooking shows in the UK, where she's widely recognized for reinventions of Read more

We're back Doctor Who fans — season six, part two is now underway. Unlike the cliffhanger before the midseason break where we learn the weight of River Song's identity, watch as the Doctor's army is overpowered and the Ponds' child is taken, this episode brings a, sometimes, light-hearted follow-up to heavy topics (such as a kidnapped child) and even more timey-wimey questions that will Read more

Season two of Bachelor Pad debuts this Fall, and the rumored headliners are exes Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi. The season 14 bachelor and his pick had a very messy and very public falling out, so I'm surprised they even agreed to be in the spin-off show together. But fame and money can make people do crazy things, which is exactly why I think Bachelor Pad works — even better than its Read more
