Who thought someone could take the 1966 Adam West Batman film and actually make it look epic? I know I didn’t. Oh well. “Some days you just can’t get rid of a bomb.”

You have to watch this. You don’t have a choice. Period.

So by now, you probably know that this March, Jay Leno will move to primetime, Conan O’Brien will take over The Tonight Show, and Jimmy Fallon will take over Late Night. But what you may not know is that in preparation for his return to TV, Jimmy Fallon has been keeping a video blog with 5 minute entries posted nightly at 12:35 AM ET, the time at which Late Night airs. The best way to follow the show is to subscribe via Hulu and have it added to your queue. I usually let each week’s episodes pile up and then watch them all over the weekend.

This week began with a bang as Jimmy practiced his interviewing skills on celebrity guests. Monday night, he welcomed Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht of the popular web show DiggNation to Late Night for a great chat about new technology and communications. Tuesday night, Jimmy hung out with the lovely Felicia Day of Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog and The Guild for a hilarious little chat about World of Warcraft and online gaming. Watch the clips below!

Well folks, one podcast just isn’t enough to keep me overwhelmed. A few friends and I have teamed up to form a brand new podcast that we like to call “Obiter Dictum.” What is this, you ask? It’s going to be a fan commentary podcast. We’ll be watching our favorite TV shows and providing a running commentary along with the episodes for your entertainment. We’ll cover shows like Smallville, Lost, Supernatural, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Heroes, Firefly, and much more! Our first official episode will cover Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog! I say “official” because we’ve already put out a miniature episode we’ve called #0 in which we explain the premise and introduce ourselves. I am joined by my friends Faith and Ky of the Chic Geek Podcast and Tim of the Crossroads Podcast. (Support them by checking out their shows in my Linkage section over in the right-hand column).
