Last week I wrote about Glee's new storyline that covers bullying and the problem with bullying in our schools.  Little did I know that this week has been Anti-Bullying Week in some schools.  Today while I was reading the stories in my RSS feed I noticed one from Topless Robot (It's not as dirty as it sounds) that really got my blood boiling.

TBS new series Glory Daze is about a group of freshman students who decide to pledge a fraternity in the mid-80s.  The series centers on Joel (Kelly Blatz), a sweet geek who's not quite sure about pledging, Eli (Matt Bush), a sex obsessed virgin, Jason, a prudish young republican who plans to pledge the "preppy" fraternity, and Brian, a star baseball player whose being force to play by his dad.

This week Glee started a storyline covering the topic of Bullying.  In the episode the bullying of Kurt, the show's openly gay character, goes from simple taunting to full-on physical attacks.  The story was inspired by the recent string of suicides caused by bullying.  The episode, titled "Teenage Dream" shows the teenage nightmare that many of the nation's youth deal with every day.

This Thursday at 10/9c USA's Burn Notice returns with all new episodes!  I am a big fan of this show, which is kind of like MacGyver for today's audience, but only if MacGyver was about 20 times more Awesome and had the amazing Bruce Campbell in the cast.  Well the show is returning and to celebrate we're giving away some free SWAG, so continue after the jump for more info.

Last night was the highly anticipated return of Conan O'Brien to television after his much talked about debacle with NBC.  The first episode of his new series, Conan, on TBS, started out with one of the best cold opens in recent memory and continued to soar throughout the episode.  Personally, I was laughing almost the entire show.  Between a great monologue, some memorable sketches, and the wonderful song he performed with musical guest, Jack White, Conan showed he was back with a vengeance.

If you missed The Late Show with Jimmy Fallon last night you also missed the unveiling of his new parody show, "Suckers".  Following in the footsteps of "The Hills" parody "7th Floor West", "The Real Housewives of Late Night", and the hilarious "Glee" Spoof "6-Bee" "Suckers" takes on the pop-culture creature of the day, Vampires.

In the sketch a new writer joins the show and quickly learns that much of the crew are vampires.  The premiere episode, which you can watch below, features stabs at True Blood, Vampire Diaries, and all the other vampire shows you'd expect.  As Fallon described it "If Twilight and True Blood were crossed with Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog and Rocky Horror and then met our show for coffee and struck up a relationship and started a boy band, broke up, went solo, and then got back for a reunion."

Starting this past week TMC began airing a new series, Moguls & Movie Stars.  If you missed it don't worry you can check out the premiere again next Monday at 7/6c followed by episode 2 at 8/7c.  This groundbreaking, seven-part documentary series will tell the comprehensive story of the men and women who built the American film industry and explore the American Movie Dynasty, from it’s conception, to the ups and downs, the twists and turns of creating the film industry we have today. Each installments features rare footage, and photographs of the people that started it all, plus interviews with distinguished historians and major Hollywood figures: Sidney Lumet, Richard Zanuck, Samuel Goldwyn Jr., just to name a few.

The series will be narrated by award winning actor, Christopher Plummer. One by one, each documentary will be followed by the respective film that represents each Hollywood era, from 1890’s silent movie to Peepshow Pioneers, to Fade-in, Fade-Out of the 1970’s. The lineup is truly fantastic!



Spanning from the invention of the first moving pictures to the revolutionary, cutting-edge films of the 1960s, this ambitious production is an epic history of Hollywood, detailing the personalities, inter-personal relationships, collaborations and conflicts that created an industry and an art form. The series also serves as a history of America, looking at how moviemakers responded to such major events as the Great Depression, World War II and the Civil Rights movement. 


MOGULS & MOVIE STARS is executive-produced by Bill Haber (TNT's Nightmares & Dreamscapes: From the Stories of Stephen King; Broadway's The History Boys and Monty Python's Spamalot) and written and produced by Jon Wilkman.
