Early Buzz: Hole, Wil Wheaton, Lebowski Fest and more
Happy Thursday! I had some nasty insomnia last night so I'm a little groggy (can falafel sandwiches cause sleeplessness?). Enjoy these headlines while I down some vitamins:
- Our annual "Save Our Shows" campaign is back, so vote if there's a bubble show you want to return. (Honestly, I'd be OK if they were all canceled!)
- Wil Wheaton is getting a Syfy talk show!
- Courtney Love says recently she played with the original members of Hole. (But don't necessarily expect a reunion: "Making out doesn't mean a marriage," she tweeted.)
- I'm glad Willie Nelson got his stuffed armadillo back.
- Would I read Jon Cryer's memoir? Yes, I would.
- Jeff Smith has a new webcomic.
- "30 Whedonverse WTF moments."
- Jeff Bridges will perform with his band at Los Angeles' Lebowski Fest this month.
- Past seasons of Top Chef and other shows soon will be available on Hulu.
- Watch the new trailer for Lucy with Scarlett Johansson.
- Someone made a supercut of Barney's suits on How I Met Your Mother.
- Which children's book character are you? (I'm Max from Where the Wild Things Are.)
- Did you know Madonna once opened for The Smiths?
- In case you haven't seen the Spider-Baby ad ...
- This stop-motion short made of thumbtacks and rubber bands is adorable.
- And finally, here's a creative way to tip your waiter. (Thanks, @thinkgeek.)
