  5. 'Downton Abbey' recap: Runaway bridegroom

    It's a shame Gloria Gaynor wasn't making records back in 1920, because if anyone needs to drink about seven or eight bottles of wine, throw &quot;I Will Survive" on the Victrola and belt out those lyrics from the bottom of her heart using Lady Mary's hairbrush as a microphone, it's poor old Edith.

  7. Can these funny folks 'Impress These Apes'?

    No, it&rsquo;s not an alien invasion, but that&rsquo;s not far off the mark. It&rsquo;s time for season seven of Blewt! Productions&rsquo; &ldquo;Impress These Apes,&rdquo; a talent competition in which eight contestants create weekly performances based on new surprise challenges such as horror movie parodies, pranking total strangers and filming the results or developing stand-up routines with a puppet. The performances are rated by a panel of judges dressed in monkey costumes, posing as hyper-intelligent apes from the future. The contestant with the most points at the end of the eight-week run receives the dubious honor of &ldquo;Least Pitiful Human&rdquo; and&mdash;thanks to a partnership with celebrity businessman Mark Cuban&mdash;a $1,000 cash prize.

  9. Prolonging the Magic: Cake's John McCrea talks success, songwriting and irony

    <span style=&quot;font-size: medium;">Cake is Generation X&rsquo;s Cheap Trick. Everyone likes them, finds their music to be funny, ironic, danceable and perhaps not very deep, and few profess to be fanatical. They float above generic boundaries; if you&rsquo;re narrow-minded, you can maintain your primary musical identity (metalhead, polka boy, indie rocker, etc.), and still like Cake. A dynamic live act, they make excellent, punchy records, and no one snickers when they cover semi-sacred ground, like Black Sabbath&rsquo;s <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDJgwUeW7_k" target="_blank">&ldquo;War Pigs,&rdquo;</a> Gloria Gaynor&rsquo;s <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=596qaxm-u4o" target="_blank">&ldquo;I Will Survive&rdquo;</a> or the "Sesame Street" song <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agj1WpGLxoo" target="_blank">&ldquo;Mahna Mahna,&rdquo;</a> just like Cheap Trick performing <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBS9MdXCDYg" target="_blank"><em>Sgt. Pepper&rsquo;s Lonely Hearts Club Band</em></a> in its entirety makes you think, <em>Yeah, that seems reasonable</em>. And, like the quartet from Rockford, Ill., almost nobody will go out on a limb and say Cake&rsquo;s music is exceptionally complex, a notion that&rsquo;s patently false.</span>
