"Arrested Development" Cast Announces Return, Talks Tobias Funke's 'Stache + Other Amazing Things You Never Knew About The Show
There are only a few phrases or concepts that can make a jaded, judgmental Gen-Y'er like myself giddy with excitement, phrases like "free beer," or "lawnmower accident," or, in our wildest dreams, "'Arrested Development' Reunion."

It's the day after the biggest show in Hollywood, but the Oscars have nothing on Sheen today.

CelebritiesRide-Alongs Are The Way To Make Charlotte Ronson, Jesse Eisenberg, Florida Sheriff (!!!!) Open Up
What is it with New York profile pieces and moving vehicles? Charlotte Ronson, 32, recently learned to drive, so naturally she takes a WSJ writer on a ride.
