* Kal Penn is leaving the White House again for a role on HIMYM. Memo to President Obama: Even though you have continually overlooked me and rehired Kal, like, six times, I would still be happy to replace him.

* Interview with Nestor Carbonell, everyone's favorite eyeliner-wearing immortal, who is SMG's costar in Ringer.

* Netflix is screwing everyone with ridiculous price hikes. I'll probably end up canceling either the DVDs or the streaming, but I haven't decided which one yet.

* With Friday Night Lights airing its series finale on NBC tomorrow, I have been completely torn between wanting to watch it as soon as possible and not wanting to because then it'll be over. Fortunately, you can relive the magic (or watch for the first time, if you're one of the unfortunate people who hasn't seen it) on ESPN.

* You can also catch up on Mad Men this summer if you're an early bird or have a DVR.

PSA

Just came across this post on file-sharing, which is definitely worth a read.

Apparently there's been some nonsense in the Sherlock fandom with people being idiots and posting links on Tumblr to download episodes. Why is that a problem? Well, for one thing, it's illegal, but if that doesn't bother you, it's still probably not a brilliant idea to go around attracting attention to the illegal activity. When you do that, it's just asking for the upload site to take it down and potentially get the uploader in trouble. Not to mention that it jeopardizes the relationship between fandom and the creators, who, thus far, have mostly been accommodating to our copyright infringement. (We only do it because we care! lol)
