I am going to try to limit the amount of Charlie Sheen I bring you at Tuned In, but TMZ just livestreamed a fascinatingly strange interview with Sheen from his own backyard. Above is part one; the whole thing is posted at TMZ.
A few thoughts:

Did Charlie Sheen hire Rod Blagojevich’s media handler? Over the past week, as you’re well aware, Sheen self-immolated, lambasting CBS and Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre for putting his sitcom on hiatus for the actor to get …

Spoilers for Friday’s Fringe follow:
When Fringe debuted, there was the by-now-usual speculation as to whether it might become (whatever this means) the next Lost. (This is the typical rite of passage now for any network sci-fi-inflected drama, but especially one that comes from J.J. Abrams and Bad Robot.) At first it wasn’t and that …

When they were first announced, James Franco and Anne Hathaway seemed like a strange pair to host the Oscars, movie stars stepping into a role most often filled by comedians or TV hosts. But as the Academy Awards began last night, it looked like the unusual move had paid off. For about three minutes. Franco and Hathaway opened the show …
After cooling down from the nonstop thrills of the Oscar broadcast, watch last night’s very special episode of Big Love and join us at the reception.

This means we’re approaching the live performances, when the contestants start getting winnowed down but, more important, we begin to see how the new judging panel interacts with the contestants, and each other, live and off the cuff.

Some of cinema’s greatest scenes can be attributed to the music that accompany them. TIME picks the best movie albums.
“Blame It on the Alcohol,” last night’s breezy, sharply written episode of Glee, takes an Afterschool Special topic and spikes it with wry. Cued by Principal Higgins’s insistence that the Glee Club should commemorate Alcohol Awareness Week with an appropriate number performed at a general assembly, the kids choose “Tick Tock” by Ke$ha …
Big Love is anomaly among HBO shows, in that it avoids the obligatory nudity and rarely utters a curse stronger than “G.D.” With these self-imposed restrictions, the series has to find subtler ways of providing its shocks. Sunday’s episode, “D.I.V.O.R.C.E.,” boasted two jolts—mouth-to-mouth scandals that touched on the series’ …

Last week, I posted here about my anxiousness, and excitement, but mostly anxiousness, about David E. Kelley remaking Wonder Woman for NBC. If there’s one thing from the 1970s original I don’t expect to survive, sadly, it’s the extra-length theme song (above), and credits combining …
