Something I did not think was possible. Apparently, “Entourage” is getting worse.  Sunday’s premiere had several gags and plot points that were either out of date or flat-out wrong. [NY Times Arts Beat]

What? No Flight Control? The ten best iPhone apps.  Obviously it’s not the ten apps you spend the most time on, otherwise Paper Toss would be on there.  That MFer is free and more addictive than tentacle porn.  [TSB Mag]

I refuse to give this its own post. Russell Brand will host the MTV Video Music Awards again this year.  Yeah, I thought he was good in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, too, but he’s not half as clever or as funny as he thinks he is.  You can have this guy back, Britain.  Can’t you send over McNulty instead?  [Best Week Ever]

Speaking of McNulty, here’s a ‘Wire’ alumnus update. Jamie Hector — the actor who played Marlo — released a statement just to make it clear that he didn’t have a role in the fatal drive-by shooting that happened outside his Brooklyn apartment during his wife’s baby shower.  Sure.  That’s what Marlo would’ve said, too.  [NY Daily News]

We also would have accepted “Spencer Pratt and Everyone.” Ten TV couples who love to hate each other.  [getback]

This is depressing: When comic book heroes get old.  It reminds me of the part of Watchmen where the slutty redhead superheroine got all old and gray and saggy.  Saddest part of the book.  I mean, except for the millions and millions of people dying.  [Gunaxin]

Ushering in a new age in televised whoring. McDonald’s is the first big-name sponsor to get behind “The Jay Leno Show,” buying a 29-day in-show promotion for next fall.  Consuming either one can lead to diabetes.  [USA Today]
