Videos on the HouseholdHackers YouTube channel claim to offer “quick and simple life hacks, where we solve your everyday problems with a little MacGyver inspired ingenuity.” In their latest video, they give viewers advice about how to conserve old candles, prevent freezer burn on your ice cream and other helpful kitchen tips. Now, Conan O’Brien has chimed in with his own common sense reaction to “MacGyver inspired ingenuity.” And yes, “just eat the ice cream sooner” is one of his tips … Discuss

Steven Spielberg announced today that he's going to be the executive producer on a new Halo television show, one that will be exclusively available on Xbox's new "interactive TV" ecosystem. The idea is that the new Xbox (they're calling it "Xbox 1") will be your hub for your gaming, your television, your music, potentially all your friendships and perhaps your very identity as a human being. The big announcement was, of course, original television content, including—most notably—Spielberg's Halo live-action series, which will be based on the deliriously popular first-person shooter game that put Xbox on the map ...

The Office may have finally ended this week, but it’s good to know that there are real-life Jim Halperts out there posting videos like this.

According to Entertainment Weekly, a new crowd-funded Friday Night Lights movie may be in the works. The series (which was inspired by a movie, that was inspired by a book, that was inspired by a true story), became a cult favorite during its five season run. Producer Brian Grazer told Deadline, “We made a terrific feature with Pete Berg, turned it into a terrific TV series and will now make a movie from that series. I’m not sure such a thing has been done before.”

As the article points out, in its final season, FNL averaged more than 3 million viewers per episode. Those are substantially better ratings than what Veronica Mars had during its final year in primetime, and it recently secured funding for a feature film via a Kickstarter campaign. If movie fans are willing to give Zach Braff more than $2 million to make a Garden State follow-up, than Friday Night Lights should have no problem getting funded ... Discuss

 

According to the article “Why Pastors Are Talking About Scandal”, the ABC drama (its season finale airs tonight) is all the rage among evangelical pastors. The show is essentially a primetime soap opera—plots revolve around affairs, politics, religion, murder and all of the other makings of a trashy, scandalous hour of TV. But, according to The Atlantic, “Scandal is no more salacious than the accounts of Old and New Testament biblical figures, from King David and his philandering-but-wise son, King Solomon, to Apostle Paul, pre-conversion.” Evidently, pastors around the country have even started Scandal-inspired sermon series. If the article is any indication, a pop-culture breakout hasn’t been this popular in churches since edgy pastors started incorporating inspirational clips from Braveheart and The Matrix into their sermons … Discuss
