OK, for those of you who missed it, here's a link to a youtube video of the Twilight clip that was featured early on during last night's episode of NBC's Heroes. It featured what is being called "the forest scene" or "the reveal," where Bella tells Edward she knows what he is ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGdUE_SSNjQ





Pattinson in KOP!

And, now for the really big Twilight news ... Robert Pattinson, Edward Cullen himself, is coming to the King of Prussia Mall on Thursday, yes, this Thursday. He'll be making an appearance to promote -- what else? -- Twilight at the Plaza's Hot Topic store from 6-8 p.m.

In order to meet him, be one of the first 500 people to purchase the Twilight Tour T-Shirt ($30) which entitles you to a wristband to get you into the signing. Only special posters from the film provided by Hot Topic will be signed, and a Q&A about the movie will follow for those lucky enough to get in.

Disclaimer: You must purchase the T-shirt in person at the King of Prussia store on Thursday. Entry to signing with wristband only. Purchase limited to two wristbands per person. No cameras. One autograph per person.

And please, Twilighters, let's behave.

According to published reports, the Twilight star caused a near-riot at yesterday's San Francisco Hot Topic appearance, and he wasn't even there! An estimated 3,000 people showed up for the 500 wristbands and, after the pushing and shoving began in the wee hours of the morning, police were called in and canceled the event. Some attendees came from as far away as Arizona, while others camped out all weekend. One girl reportedly received a broken nose.

The signing went on as planned several hours later, but the Q&A was not rescheduled. It's unclear who actually got in or how they got their wristbands.

According to Pattinson's IMDB message board, today's signing in Dallas seemed to go better, but also had a tremendous number of people (mostly teenage girls) turn out.

So if you're going, I would recommend getting there early.


Best line on TV last night: "Sheldon's one lab accident away from a super-villain," Leonard to Penny on CBS' Big Bang Theory. It seems Penny earned herself 3 strikes in Sheldon's book last night and was banished from the boys' apartment.



Penny & Sheldon

If you've ever watched this clever little sitcom, you know Sheldon very well. He's the anal retentive (that's putting it mildly) super-genius stand-out of the rest of the geeky geniuses on the show.

If you haven't, maybe you should give this golden nugget a chance. I only discovered it on DVD over the summer, but I immediately added it to my viewing schedule! (Mondays, 8 p.m.)

On TV Tonight: Well, since it's sweeps, everything's new! Here's a brief run-down ...


On NBC from 8-10 p.m. the Biggest Loser: Families features the contestants learning they'll be competing individually after the teams are dissolved. The eliminated players return to the ranch, last season's winner, Alison Vincent, makes a surprise visit, and a new twist is added to the elimination round.

On ABC, it's another Dancing with the Stars recap at 8 p.m., followed by the results show at 9 p.m. An all new Eli Stone (10 p.m.) features fallout from the firm's split including Eli's efforts to show Matt the rewards of pro bono work.

CBS' must-see night starts off the NCIS at 8 p.m. The team probes a bank robbery that ends in murder, and Gibbs doubts his own judgment. At 9 p.m. The Mentalist (a fast growing hit) takes on a murdered casino owner and at 10 p.m. on Without A Trace, a bank manager vanishes. I used to love this show, but I had too many hour-long dramas on my schedule and had to eliminate something. Not saying that it wasn't a great show, but when CBS moved it to Sunday nights I kinda got over it.


Over on Fox, it's House at 8 p.m. - the team makes a house call when an agoraphobe won't leave his home, while at 9 p.m. Fringe's team investigates a strange parasite that appears inside an ailing FBI agent. This show started out brilliant, but with all the recent weeks when this show hasn't been on, I've kinda gotten away from it. Anyone else have feelings/comments on Fringe?


The CW offers up an all new 90210 at 8 p.m. - big surprise, bitchy Naomi causes trouble at Annie's sweet 16 party, and on Privileged at 9 p.m., the CW pulls out all the stops by having blog-gossip guru Perez Hilton make a cameo (yeah, I'm gagging now).


But if you need something a little stronger and bloodier ... HBO airs Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd again at 9 p.m. I recommended this movie last Friday before it's Saturday premiere. I actually sat down and watched it again Saturday and stand firm on my first review - this is a Burton masterpiece. If you're a Johnny Depp or Tim Burton fan, it's a must-see!



The Demon Barber of Fleet Street


Of course, I'll be making time to check out one of my guilty pleasures over on Bravo at 10 p.m. - The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Yeah, I know, it's totally cheesy, but I can't stop watching!! Will Kim and NeNe make up? Will Sheree and NeNe have it out? Or, judging by the previews, will they all get stuck on some small island in the middle of a lake?? Tune in to see.

Feuding Housewives


And speaking of guilty pleasures, I think I've mentioned before how I just can't turn off VH1's Rock of Love. It's my love of bad TV to keeps me tuned in. Anyway, for any of you who feel the same, former contestant Destiney Moore (she was one of the badees) will take the stage and lose her clothes at Al's Diamond Cabaret in Reading this Thursday through Sunday. No, I won't be attending. Just thought it was an interesting tidbit. I mean, really, who'd thought any of the contestants on that show would be stripping these days? Ha!
