An old foe will return in DOCTOR WHO…
Wibble to the wobble my timey-wimey homies. With everybody’s favourite Time Lord now less than two months away from making a small screen return, you can bet that there’ll be a few new fresh faces added to season 8 of Doctor Who.

You've got to be a criminal in this new trailer for HORRIBLE BOSSES 2
Horrible Bosses had to be one of the biggest comedy surprises for me in 2011.

So here’s today’s question: Which cancelled TV show do you wish …

Over it’s 30-plus years, American comedy institution Saturday Night Live has produced its fair share of annoying people who luckily just briefly popped up on our radars before everybody realized how annoying they really were and sent them stand in the corner of obscurity (Rob Schneider, come on dowwwwwn!) Luckily for us – and Darryn’s crush on a certain funny …
SPOILER! Mark Ruffalo reveals Hulk's fate in AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
If there’s one part of my job I hate it’s this: Having to look at spoilers for movies that I’m really looking forward to.
