'Grey's' Chainsaw Madness
It's trick or treat on "Grey's Anatomy." Meredith decides to try to be less messed up by disposing of her evil doctor mother's ashes. So she dumps Dr. Mom's Ashes into a plastic Ziploc bag and takes them in to work. Bailey's looking forward to the arrival on Halloween night...

'The Office' Goes Commercial
It was a brisk, back-to-the-basics episode of "The Office" Thursday night. Yes, it works so much better in the half-hour format. Can we all agree that Michael's homemade commercial for Dunder Mifflin, with all its flaws (and there were many), was so much better than that corporate version that they...

'Top Model': Getting Lucky
Oh, lordy, guess who's reduced the entire "America's Next Top Model" house into a giggling hot mess. Tyson "The Body" Beckford!

'Heroes'' New Hellion
Veronica Mars, you are one mean Hero. Kristen Bell, former star of the cultish UPN/CW detective show, made her much-heralded debut on "Heroes" Monday night, and, before the credits rolled, her character Elle had already made toast out of one unlucky Irishman. Straight from "Mars": actress Kristen Bell. (AP Photo/NBC)...

"Dancing With the Stars:" And Fainting Too
So the night starts out with Marie Osmond passing out cold on the floor in that horrible blue dress. Quite a shocker, then a quick cut to a commercial. Back from the commercial break, Marie is functional for the scoring (alas, her score was a Mark Cuban-tying 21, and we...

'Desperate Housewives': Feeling Itchy
First of all, Teri Hatcher should sue the writers for making Susan not just idiotic this episode, but so utterly ham-handed about the concept of having gay neighbors that they dumbed-down her character about 6 levels. Really, awkward Susan is an obvious standing storyline for "Desperate Housewives." But Susan as...
