Posted: 06 Oct 2011 08:21 PM PDT



Not too long ago a near 5–minute special preview of the return of Beavis and Butt-Head was released online, and many fans of the idiotically hilarious '90s animated hit series giggled with teenage nostalgia...myself very much included.

While it's not quite as funny as said preview, MTV has released a new trailer for the show, and it's still well worth taking a peek at. You'll see some of the antics the eternally immature Beavis and Butt–Head get into, as well as a peek at some other returning characters.

Be sure to head on below now to check out the new trailer for Beavis and Butt–Head, which returns to MTV on October 27, 2011. [...]

Conan O’Brien Returns To ‘Late Night’ Set To Retrieve Triumph From Jimmy Fallon

Posted: 06 Oct 2011 05:33 PM PDT

Conan O'Brien & Triumph Reunion

One of the more unfortunate casualties of Conan O'Brien's messy departure from NBC as host of The Tonight Show, was that the network maintained legal ownership of all of the late–night talk show host's many characters and bits he created over the near two–decade run he had there.

The most cherished of which would have to be Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, who gained his own cult following as a ultra–sarcastic field reporter who visited events, such as a new Star Wars movie hitting theaters, for example, where his hilariously poked fun at the many fanboys (and girls) who were camping out in line (a must–see if you have not).

During a recent airing of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Conan made a surprise appearance—on the very same set that his own Late Night was filmed for 16 years before he made the move to The Tonight Show and, ultimately, to Conan on TBS—to take back what was once his. But could there be a way for Conan to really get Triumph back from NBC somehow, or was this a simple bit of nostalgia?

Watch Now: ‘Dexter’ Season 6 Premiere

Posted: 06 Oct 2011 02:00 PM PDT



Fans of the hit series Dexter without access to Showtime can now rejoice: the pay cable network has made the season six premiere episode available for free viewing online. You can watch the video below this article.

This is a nice gesture on the part of Showtime, but it's also highly likely a ploy to attract potential new subscribers, hence the reason why this free version of the Dexter season premiere is edited for content. So it will be just like watching the show on a channel like, say, Bravo. Or A&E. Oh joy [...]

FREE Listen: Batman Arkham City Soundtrack

Posted: 06 Oct 2011 10:54 AM PDT

Arkham City Soundtrack

Hey, you guys remember how I gave a great review of the Batman: Arkham City Soundtrack because it's awesome? Well, if you're still a little apprehensive about spending that hard earned ten-ish bucks, then you're in luck because you can go over to AOL and listen to it absolutely free!

That's right, AOL is giving you a free streaming option to give the album a listen if my words weren't enough to get you to purchase it. There are a lot of great songs on this album from bands like Panic! At The Disco, The Damned Things, Coheed and Cambria, and Daughtry, and each of the songs are either influenced or about Batman! How great is that? [...]

Robert Downey Jr. To Bring ‘Perry Mason’ To The Big Screen

SDCC 2010: Marvel Avengers Panel: Robert Downey Jr

No one has cashed in their return to glory quite like Robert Downey Jr. Be it starring in films like Sherlock Holmes or Iron Man, or getting offered insanely intriguing projects like Gravity or even spearheading a few here and there like his still-gestating Steve McQueen project, Downey Jr. has become one of the hottest actors around.

But he sure loves his remakes and franchises. Variety is reporting that he and WB will be developing a big screen take on the iconic TV series Perry Mason as a possible starring vehicle for the actor [...]

Must Watch: ‘Moneyball’ Sequel ‘Too Much Moneyball’ Trailer

Posted: 06 Oct 2011 08:49 AM PDT

Too Much Moneyball

OK, so there's not really a sequel for Moneyball already on the way, unfortunately, but the folks over at Jest (the new College Humor sister site) decided that there was a perfect sequel story to tell, and produced this faux trailer to prove its worth.

Moneyball stars Brad Pitt as Oakland Athletics general manager Billy Beane, who, along with the help of Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), come up with a radical new way to put a major league baseball team together with significantly limited financial means. So what better premise for a sequel than a team that has TOO much money to spend? And who better to base it on than the team we all love to hate—that's right...the New York Yankees!

You can check out the parody trailer for this completely non–existent movie, fittingly titled Too Much Moneyball, by clicking on over to the other side now. [...]
