			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zombie1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14006" title="zombie1" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zombie1-e1294098091295.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="269" /></a></p>
<p>Thanks to AMC’s “<a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/Video/watch-every-bloody-walking-dead-zombie-death/" target="_blank">The Walking Dead</a>,” zombies are a hot commodity in Hollywood. And with <em>Zombieland 2</em> and <a href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/movie-news/anne-hathaway-and-james-mcavoy-may-help-ruin-zombies/" target="_blank"><em>Pride and Prejudice and Zombies</em></a> already slated for production, America’s love affair with the undead shows no sign of letting up. But we all know it’s only a matter of time before this, like all fads, jumps the shark.</p>
<p>But until then, Hollywood is sure to churn out one Zombie-related project after another until they’ve scrapped the absolute bottom of the barrel. <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/manvszombies" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Some will be awesomely entertaining</a>, most will be unwatchable, but each project will push us closer to the point of over-saturation. Here are seven examples we&#8217;re likely to see in 2011.</p>
<p><strong>ZSI: Miami</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zsi.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13997" title="zsi" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zsi-e1294097364428.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="310" /></a></p>
<p>The cops of&#8221;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/shows/csi-miami' target='_blank'>CSI: Miami</a>&#8221; spend their days examining dead people. Why not cut out the middleman and put the undead on the case. Besides, Horatio Caine and company can use a fresh set of eyes, even if those eyes are rotting. Yeeeaaaaaaaah!</p>
<p><strong>Habeas Corpus</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zombie-court.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13996" title="zombie court" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/zombie-court-e1294097453719.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>This is America, damn it! Even the most wretched dirtbags among us are entitled to a fair trail. But what about zombies? How do you go about punishing someone who&#8217;s already dead? Life in prison? The death penalty? &#8220;Habeas Corpus&#8221; will explore the legal complications that are sure to accompany the zombie <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/apocalypse/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>apocalypse</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Two and a Half Men</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Jenny-McCarthy-On-Two-And-A-Half-Men333.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13993" title="Jenny-McCarthy-On-Two-And-A-Half-Men333" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Jenny-McCarthy-On-Two-And-A-Half-Men333-e1294097900244.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="301" /></a></p>
<p>Everyone under the age of 50 seems to hate sitcoms like &#8220;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/two-and-a-half-men-820/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Two and a Half Men</a>.&#8221; What if the “half-man” in question wasn&#8217;t that fat kid, but someone who&#8217;d been devoured by a zombie? I smell an Emmy!</p>
<p><strong>Undead On Arrival</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/greys-anatomy.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13992" title="greys-anatomy" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/greys-anatomy.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="286" /></a></p>
<p>Medical shows like &#8220;<a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/greys-anatomy-482/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Grey&#8217;s Anatomy</a>&#8221; are already running out of ridiculous plot lines. It won&#8217;t be long until zombies are thrown into the mix. Besides, I’m sure the zombie characters would be a lot more likable than Katherine Heigl.</p>
<p><strong>16 and Pregnant&#8230;and Dead</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/16-and-preg.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13991" title="16-and-preg" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/16-and-preg-e1294097663273.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="306" /></a></p>
<p>Having a kid at the age of 16 is difficult enough. Try doing it when you’re dead. Yeah, it’s easy to sit there and judge that girl in the picture for devouring her own fetus, but remember; her body, her choice.</p>
<p><strong>Zombie Leno</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/leno.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-13994" title="leno" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/leno-e1294097694128.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="287" /></a></p>
<p>Considering the average age of a Leno fan, marketing his show to the undead is the next logical step.</p>
<p><strong>Zombie A-cock-alypse</strong><br />
<a href="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/monster-lead1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14002" title="monster-lead" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/monster-lead1-e1294097749499.jpg" alt='' width="500" height="360" /></a></p>
<p>Porn films are made with such frequency that eventually, everything gets a parody (Shindler&#8217;s Fist, anyone?). So it’s only a matter of time before zombies make their way into the world of porn, especially if Zombie-ism is caused by a virus.</p>

<p>With the recent Hollywood push to produce and convert everything they <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/will-smith-signs-men-black-3d">possibly can into 3D</a>, you gotta wonder if the major congloms are gonna work with their music departments to throw out a few more 3D gigs. To date, there have only been three such concert shows in theaters, with <em>Hannah Montana</em> being the only big success. Country singer Kenny Chesney releases his show to the masses this Friday, so we&#8217;ll see how a cowboy fares. Fact is, &ldquo;The Studio Man&rdquo; has apparently forgotten that their largest and most loyal audience members are <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/young-adult-56/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>young adult</a> males. Why can&rsquo;t we score a show or two from a band that actually rocks hard (sorry <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/u2-705/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>U2</a> fans, they just don&rsquo;t)?</p>
<p>The following are eight bands/performers that, if given their own 3D theatrical film, would inspire some airborne devil-horns and bring in bank at <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/the-box' target='_blank'>the box</a> office.</p>
<p><strong>Muse</strong></p>
<p>With a sound that can be defined truly as &ldquo;epic rock,&rdquo; Muse has emerged as one of the most exciting and consistent live performances in the new millennium. Though the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movievideo/twilight-eclipse-trailer-needs-more-ashley-greene">Twi-tards</a> know them for &ldquo;that song that plays during the baseball scene&rdquo; in that vampire film they cream over, tracks like &ldquo;Knights of Cydonia&rdquo; and &ldquo;Resistance&rdquo; are simply begging for a 3D staging.</p>
<p>Check out their <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/sxsw-504/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>SXSW</a> 2010 rendition of &quot;Knights of Cydonia&quot; with a sick intro from Leone&#8217;s <em>Once Upon a Time in the West</em>.</p>
<p><object width="450" height="270"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/--Msb8zA0Es&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed width="450" height="270" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/--Msb8zA0Es&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Foo Fighters</strong></p>
<p>Having performed live with talent from the likes of Tenacious D to Led Zeppelin, in addition to his own three-plus bands, Dave Grohl has all but become certified as THE contemporary God of Rock. The Foo Fighters are probably the most-likely band on this list to get offered its own 3D screen show. Though not known for providing KISS-esque flash and pyrotechnics, the Foos rock hard enough to make for a more-than-compelling rock show, especially with their track-record of cover-songs and guests.</p>
<p><object width="450" height="270"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9WFw7rgPumY&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" /><embed width="450" height="270" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9WFw7rgPumY&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Andrew W.K.</strong></p>
<p>The king of &ldquo;Party Rock&rdquo; puts on one of the most high-octane shows there is. Pulling fans on-stage before lifting them onto his shoulders are not concert rarities. The viewing of AWK&rsquo;s 3D head-bangs and sweat drops would likely prevent fans from staying seated if presented with the opportunity to join-in on AWK&rsquo;s thunderous dance moves.</p>
<p>Picture this: &quot;We Want Fun&quot; &#8211; <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/jackass-3d-could-put-unpleasant-things-your-face"><em>Jackass The Movie</em></a> soundtrack&#8230;in <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/imax-457/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>IMAX</a> 3D.</p>

We Want Fun&amp;tags=andrew,fun,jackass,butterbean,skateboarding,soundtrack,movie,pool,pool,awesome,intense&amp;description=A great music video made for the <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/jackass/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Jackass</a> Movie soundtrack, with Andrew W.K., Butterbean, and the Jackass crew.&amp;displayheight=325&amp;backcolor=0x0d0d0d&amp;lightoclor=0&#215;336699&amp;frontcolor=0xcccccc&amp;image=http://media.ebaumsworld.com/thumbs/2008/03/272927.jpg&amp;username=Jekel_Chainz&#8221; wmode=&#8221;transparent&#8221; loop=&#8221;false&#8221; menu=&#8221;false&#8221; quality=&#8221;high&#8221; bgcolor=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; type=&#8221;application/x-shockwave-flash&#8221; pluginspage=&#8221;http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer&#8221;></embed></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Alice Cooper</strong></p>
<p>Who wouldn&#8217;t want backstage passes at Alice Cooper? The 62 year-old pioneer of heavy glam-metal might be the oldest individual deserving of the 3D treatment. Sure he may be a little on the senior side, but I&rsquo;ll be damned if it wouldn&rsquo;t be awesome to see a 3D head roll off a 3D guillotine while a 3D Frankenstein&rsquo;s monster&#8230;you get the point.</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GtqesudKxSA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" /><embed width="480" height="385" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GtqesudKxSA&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Gorillaz</strong></p>
<p>Led by &ldquo;singer&rdquo; 2D, Gorillaz would have a pretty easy time making a transition to 3D&#8230;especially since they&rsquo;ve always been animated. Having &ldquo;performed&rdquo; live on very rare occasion, the virtual band would actually benefit most from digital 3D technology in a venue rather than a movie theater. Much in the vain of their 2006 Grammy performance with <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/madonna-907/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Madonna</a>, you could give audience members 3D glasses for the projected images of the band members while live guests joined on stage. Possible new step in the evolution of 3D?</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/D8pu6rwM2KU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/D8pu6rwM2KU&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Van Halen</strong></p>
<p>It might be difficult to pull this show off, let alone get the right members in the same room. However, you&rsquo;d get a great chance at seeing some incredible on-stage drama. Rockin tunes aside, the opp to see David Lee Roth walk away mid-show, or see Alex punch-out Eddie would be worth it in itself. Watch out for that cape comin&#8217; atchya!</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nT7XOlPWsN8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowscriptaccess" /><embed width="480" height="385" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nT7XOlPWsN8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>311</strong></p>
<p>A defining sound for the alternative kick of the &lsquo;90&#8242;s. 311 is known for their genre-bending tones, group drum solos, and extra-smoky auditoriums.&nbsp; The ever-loyals fans are known for making the annual pilgrimage to what is their &ldquo;Mecca&rdquo; of all concerts for the calendar year&#8230;March 11th. This is an example of a show that, if shot live for a single night event, would be sure to bring out the crowds in force for &ldquo;311 Day.&rdquo;</p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SSHEVGsXTJg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SSHEVGsXTJg&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Motley Crue</strong></p>
<p>If only 3D technology was capable of allowing us to glance back to the &ldquo;more prominent&rdquo; days&#8230; I think watching the backstage antics of Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee (even while married to Pam Anderson) would be worth checking out in itself. Think of all the possibilities, 3D Lee stick-spin, 3D whiskey chug, etc. Okay, let&rsquo;s be honest here, all we really want is a re-vamped, 3D video for &quot;Girls, Girls, Girls.&quot;</p>
<p><object width="480" height="327"><param value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xalj0" name="movie" /><param value="true" name="allowFullScreen" /><param value="always" name="allowScriptAccess" /><embed width="480" height="327" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xalj0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xalj0_motley-crue-girls-girls-girls_music" rel="nofollow"><strong><br /></strong></a></p>
<p><strong>Who would YOU like to melt your face in <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/3d-concert-684/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>3D concert</a>?</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not too long ago, most actors on TV wer <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/unknown' target='_blank'>unknown</a> before they were cast. Guys like Clooney and&#8230;other guys like Clooney. Then a trend started where the actors cast were former film stars &#8212; of a certain degree, at least. Actors and actresses that were once well-known before bigger and better looking talent overshadowed them. But TV has never shied away from second rate, so the trend has continued and will keep getting stronger. And alas, there are still many more of these former semi-moderately-successful movie stars in the unemployment line waiting for their To <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/break' target='_blank'>break</a>. Here&rsquo;s just a partial list of such people and the shows they may be working on next. Because an extensive list might number somewhere in the hundreds.</p>
<p> <strong>Lou Diamond Phillips</strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="407" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/lou_diamond.png" /></p>
<p> TV Show:<br /> &ldquo;CSI: Austin&rdquo;</p>
<p> Premise:<br /> Simply take the other three <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tvphotos/18-awesome-david-caruso-memes">&ldquo;CSI&rdquo;</a> shows and them set it in Austin, Texas. Lou Diamond Phillips will play the leader of the team with a dark past. We&rsquo;re not sure what kind of dark past, it just needs to be pretty dark. Of course, since it is set in Texas, clich&eacute;s of racism and toothless residents will be heavily featured in every episode. There will also be a very special Halloween episode centered around copycats of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre murders. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/marcus-nispel-direct-conan-update-no-more-brett-ratner">Marcus Nispel</a> will direct that gem.</p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tvnews/matthew-mcconaughey-alllllllright-animation">Matthew McConaughey</a> (usually in episodes featuring smoking weed and being shirtless).</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Stephen Baldwin</strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="407" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/Stephen%20Baldwin%20and%20friend.jpg" /></p>
<p> TV Show:<br /> &ldquo;Pucked Up&rdquo;</p>
<p> Premise:<br /> An aging, boozing hockey star with a gift for squinting and speaking in a raspy voice is hit in the head during a hockey game. While in a coma, he makes a deal with God: to quit his wild ways and become a traveling preacher. The only problem is, on his new journey he has daily visions of God and the <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/devil' target='_blank'>Devil</a> and ends up sometimes refereeing their debates. Which kinda&rsquo; wants him to start drinking again. A lot. The Bible Network will be producing.</p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> Billy Baldwin as God.<br /> Daniel Baldwin as the <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/devil-54/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Devil</a>.<br /> Alec Baldwin as himself.</p>

<p> Premise:<br /> David Arquette will play David Farquette, a plastic surgeon who specializes in breast augmentation, in a hilarious new sitcom about a father that has to deal with his kids growing up and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/tvnews/cougar-town-actress-courteney-cox">his wife</a>&rsquo;s new career as a housewife. He will hand out sage advice that his kids will listen to, because he&rsquo;s hip, wears clothes from American Eagle, and listens to <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/miley-cyrus-283/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Miley Cyrus</a> songs. </p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> Some of the other million Arquettes.</p>

<p><img width="450" height="300" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/transformers26.jpg" /></p>
<p> TV Show:<br /> &ldquo;Flesh/Sword&rdquo;</p>
<p> Premise:<br /> The title has to do with &lsquo;a pound of flesh&rsquo; regarding the financial industry and &lsquo;sword&rsquo; refers to the cutthroat aspect of it. Brilliant marketing campaign to follow. Voight will play a <a target="_blank" href="http://www.screenjunkies.com/movienews/michael-douglas-clearly-devil-international-wall-street-2-trailer">Gordon Gecko</a> type, trading pounds of flesh by day on Wall Street and&#8230;okay, disgusting. If he bangs his secretary in this, I&rsquo;m out. </p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> Selma Blair comes to mind.<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Ryan Phillippe<br /> </strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="295" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/sexy_santa_ryan_phillipe.jpg" /></p>

Doctors find nothing wrong, but his career as a model suffers because of the lack of demand for bumpy forehead portfolios. Near the end of the first episode, he is approached by a beautiful woman who has the same condition. Together they set out on a quest to find out what happened to them and start to uncover a sinister plot to disfigure attractive people.</p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> William B. Davis, the guy who played The Smoking Man in &ldquo;The X Files&rdquo;. He&rsquo;ll give away clues to the conspiracy and still smoke like a chimney.</p>
<p> <strong>Isla Fisher &amp; Amy Adams</strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="317" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/amyadams-isla-fisher-match.jpg" /></p>

<p> Premise:<br /> Two ditzy twins separated at birth, inherit an interior design business when their birth&nbsp; parents enter witness protection.

<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> Carrot Top <br /> David Caruso</p>
<p> <strong>Dane Cook</strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="439" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/dane_cook.png" /></p>
<p> TV Show:<br /> &ldquo;What&rsquo;s Cookin&rsquo;?&rdquo;</p>
<p> Premise:<br /> Because everything in TV is being recycled, this is Dane Cook&rsquo;s &ldquo;Seinfeld&rdquo;. Except this one centers around a character, aptly named <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/dane-cook-869/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Dane Cook</a>, and he&rsquo;s a once famous comedian now looking for work after a very, very brief attempt starring in films. He gets a job as a restaurant cook (he&rsquo;s apparently being typecast after Waiting&#8230;) and lives in an apartment across the hall from a zany neighbor and hangs out with his other two friends at the local bar. And they talk about how sucky their dating lives are&#8230;I think I just described my life.</p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/christina-applegate-522/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Christina Applegate</a>. Just because she&rsquo;s due for a new failure.</p>
<p> Robin Williams returns to TV to play the zany, and quite hairy, possibly-high-on-something neighbor.</p>
<p> <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/kiefer-sutherland-786/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Kiefer Sutherland</a>, reprising his role as <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/jack-bauer-637/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Jack Bauer</a>, who got lucky enough to land a restaurant manager job after he permanently retired from government work.</p>
<p> <strong>Robin Wright Penn</strong></p>
<p><img width="450" height="227" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/01_robin_sean_penn.jpg" /></p>
<p> TV Show:<br /> &ldquo;That Ain&rsquo;t Wright!&rdquo;</p>
<p> Premise:<br /> Thin <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tv/shows/dexter' target='_blank'>Dexter</a>&#8230;if Sean Penn were <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/tag/dexter-211/' class='linkify' target='_blank'>Dexter</a> and Robin Wright Penn was all of his victims. And Dexter had no sense of humor. At all. Also, it&#8217;s a reality show.</p>
<p> Recurring Actors:<br /> Everyone in Hollywood. Sean Penn keeps showing up at awards shows looking for his ex. But his jokes are so righteous!</p>

<p><em>He-Man and the Masters of the Universe </em>wasn&#8217;t just an awesome platform to sell toys. It was also a program that delivered good moral values to its young viewers, especially at the end of each episode (not unlike <a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ-ckU_D1fg" rel="nofollow">G.I. Joe</a>).</p>
<p>Our scientists scoured the &#8216;nets and assembled a collection of some of these lessons taught to us by He-Man and fellow Eternians&#8230; and then we thought about all the celebrities that could stand to learn from them.</p>
<p>Check out these lessons below. You might just learn something, too.</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong><br />
LESSON: LOVE YOUR PARENTS</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param name="movie" value="http://customembed.break.com/842174/MjIwMjU1NQ==" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed width="464" height="426" src="http://customembed.break.com/842174/MjIwMjU1NQ==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></h1>
<p><strong>The Lesson:</strong> Orko wagers that the love between a parent and a child is the strongest kind of love there is and that nothing can change it. NO MATTER WHAT.</p>
<p><strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENEFIT: MACAULAY CULKIN</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="351" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/macaulay%20culkin.jpg" /></p>
<p>Oh, Orko. You are one naive, floppy-hatted simpleton. I don&rsquo;t know how parents and kids relate to one another in your home dimension of Trolla but here in Hollywood we sue the ever-loving crap out of each other. At the age of fifteen, after his dad/manager spent most of his earnings, Mac Culkin decided that living home alone would be good, son. So he sought emancipation from his parents&#8230; and won. After that point, the money he earned from acting would be all his. Yep. Whenever those adult acting opportunities come along. Any minute now&#8230;.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong>LESSON: WORKING WITH OTHERS</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param value="http://customembed.break.com/842180/MjIwMjU1NQ==" name="movie" /><param value="always" name="allowScriptAccess" /><embed width="464" height="426" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://customembed.break.com/842180/MjIwMjU1NQ=="></embed></object></h1>
<p><strong>The Lesson: </strong>If you can put your differences aside, you&rsquo;ll be able to work with others and maybe learn something along the way.</p>
<p><strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENEFIT: KATHERINE HEIGL</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="264" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/Katherine%20Heigl.jpg" /></p>
<p>There are numerous stories around town about renowned bee-yatch Heigl being difficult to work with. <a target="_blank" href="http://chickipedia.com/katherine-heigl" rel="nofollow">Heigl</a> famously bad-mouthed <em>Knocked Up</em>, the movie that launched her film career. In addition, she withdrew her name from Emmy consideration because she felt her <em>Grey&rsquo;s Anatomy</em> character didn&#8217;t have any &quot;material that was worthy to submit.&quot; She sounds like a bigger bitch than Skeletor.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong>LESSON: DO YOUR BEST</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param name="movie" value="http://customembed.break.com/842161/MjIwMjU1NQ==" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed width="464" height="426" src="http://customembed.break.com/842161/MjIwMjU1NQ==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></h1>
<p>
<strong>The Lesson:</strong> Man-At-Arms teaches us to try our best. As long as we do that we never really fail.</p>
<p>
<strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENEFIT: BEN STILLER</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="326" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/ben%20stiller.jpg" /></p>
<p>He&rsquo;s been sleepwalking through his roles since striking gold with <em>There&#8217;s Something About Mary</em>. If you disagree, watch <em>The Ben Stiller Show</em> and compare its awesomeness to <em>Duplex</em> or <em>Along Came Polly</em> or <em>Dodgeball</em>. Most of his movies are flat, flimsy plots wrapped around a dance-off or fat suit dance scene of some sort. His movies are growing interchangeable and he&rsquo;s quickly becoming the Nicolas Cage of comedy.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong>LESSON: LEARN THE RULES</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param value="http://customembed.break.com/842173/MjIwMjU1NQ==" name="movie" /><param value="always" name="allowScriptAccess" /><embed width="464" height="426" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://customembed.break.com/842173/MjIwMjU1NQ=="></embed></object></h1>
<p><strong>The Lesson:</strong> He-Man and Man-At-Arms teach children not to wander too far away when they play. Otherwise they could get in trouble and there would be no one around to help them.</p>
<p>
<strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENE</strong><strong>FIT: MARGOT KIDDER</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="248" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/margot%20kidder.jpg" /></p>
<p>In April of 1996, <em>Superman</em> actress Margot Kidder&#8217;s bipolar disorder led to her becoming delusional. In a bizarro turn of events, Kidder wandered away from her home and was missing for three days before being found by police in a state which was described as &quot;dirty, frightened and paranoid.&quot; Could have saved herself a lot of frustration and worry had she only tuned into a child&#8217;s cartoon in the 1980&#8242;s.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong><br />
LESSON: YOU ARE ADOPTED</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param name="movie" value="http://customembed.break.com/842182/MjIwMjU1NQ==" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed width="464" height="426" src="http://customembed.break.com/842182/MjIwMjU1NQ==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></h1>
<p><strong>The Lesson: </strong>Teela learns that her adopted parent Man-At-Arms is just as much her father though despite having no biological connection.</p>
<p><strong>CELEBRITY THAT C</strong><strong>OULD BENEFIT: MICHAEL </strong><strong>BAY</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="250" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/michael%20bay.jpg" /></p>
<p>The well-known rumor around Hollywood is that Michael Bay is the offspring of legendary director John Frankenheimer. Though there has allegedly been a paternity test that belies this belief, there is still an air of mystery surrounding their possible relation. Bay shares the healthy outlook along with Teela having stated, &quot;I am definitely one who believes that your parents are the ones who raise you.&quot;&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong><br />
LESSON: DON&rsquo;T PLAY WITH FIRE</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param value="http://customembed.break.com/842165/MjIwMjU1NQ==" name="movie" /><param value="always" name="allowScriptAccess" /><embed width="464" height="426" allowscriptaccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://customembed.break.com/842165/MjIwMjU1NQ=="></embed></object></h1>
<p><strong>The Lesson:</strong> Don&rsquo;t play with matches. You could damage your home and your loved ones.</p>
<p>
<strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENEFIT: LISA &quot;LEFT EYE&quot; LOPES</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="240" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/left%20eye%20lopes.jpg" /></p>
<p>Before tragically passing at a young age, &ldquo;Left Eye&rdquo; was famous for burning down the home she shared with Atlanta Falcon&rsquo;s star Andre Risen. Eager for some tender, love, and care from her then-boyfriend, Lopes grew upset with his all-night partying ways. As revenge she set fire to his sneakers. The fire spread and the entire mansion burned down. This embarrassing event would have never happened if only she had listened to Man-At-Arm&rsquo;s plea. Then she would only be famous for wearing a condom on her face.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 class="rtecenter">&nbsp;</h1>
<h1 class="rtecenter"><strong><br />
LESSON: PROTECT THE FOREST</strong><br />
<object width="450" height="415"><param name="movie" value="http://customembed.break.com/842179/MjIwMjU1NQ==" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed width="464" height="426" src="http://customembed.break.com/842179/MjIwMjU1NQ==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></h1>
<p>
<strong>The Lesson:</strong> Zodac the Cosmic Enforcer teaches us to take care of the environment before it wastes away to nothing.</p>
<p><strong>CELEBRITY THAT COULD BENEFIT: MILEY CYRUS</strong></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="250" height="302" alt="" src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/miley%20cyrus.jpg" /></p>
<p class="rteleft">Though she would like to view herself as an environmental crusader, Miley Cyrus seems more than a little under-educated on what exactly going green means. Sure she traded in her Porsche for a Prius but what of her private jet? And what about all the merchandise out there stamped with her smiling image? Surely all those mass-produced CDs, DVDs, posters, backpacks, lunchboxes, purses, wallets, make-up kits, wigs, hair brushes, jewelry, shoes, sneakers, swimwear, dolls, doll accessories, playsets, board games, video games, pencils, pens, notebooks, rulers, staplers, cards, diaries, microphones, karaoke sets, bedding, dinner sets, bath products, guitars, amps, stickers, wall decorations, temporary tattoos, party supplies, shampoos, shower gels, toothbrushes, lip balms, and perfumes have to take some kind of toll on the environment.</p>

<p>Over the past decade, reality shows have <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/taken' target='_blank'>taken</a> over the airwaves. Some are genuine and engaging. Others are exploitative and sink to new lows never experienced previously on television. In honor of <em>More To Love</em>, FOX&#8217;s new big person dating show, we&#8217;ve put together a list of reality shows that have pushed the boundaries of good taste whether with their content or their marketing. Take a look at the tastless, mean, and misunderstood.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="300" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/whosyourdaddy.jpg" /></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><strong>WHO&#8217;S YOUR DADDY?</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> A woman who was adopted as a child meets 25 men, one of whom is her biological father. If she correctly identifies the baby daddy, she will win $100,000. If she is wrong however, the man that she incorrectly selected will walk away with the money.<br /> <strong>The controversy:</strong> Adoption groups were in an uproar over the callous presentation of the show and due to low ratings it was shelved after only one episode. </p>
<p> That&#8217;s sad. The poor little show that nobody wanted.<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="325" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/joe%20millionaire.jpg" /><br /> <em><sup>&nbsp;&nbsp; Tiiiiiiigggghhhtttttt.</sup></em></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><strong>JOE MILLIONAIRE</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> A handsome and rich young man is searching for the woman with who he will spend his life. He romances a group of contestants in exotic locales, eliminating one per episode. The twist however is that he doesn&#8217;t have a dime to his name.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy: </strong>The woman aren&#8217;t exactly painted in the most favorable light. Many of whom come off as greedy and shallow to the viewing audience.</p>
<p> The show made waves when it aired what was believed to be the first reality show blow-job (later debunked). Besides everyone knows that the real first blowie happened on <em>Bug Juice</em>. <br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="175" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/temptation_island.jpg" /><br /> <strong>TEMPTATION ISLAND</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> In order to test the strength of their relationships, several couples live in a tropical paradise with single members of the opposite sex. The singles of course are smoking hot and hired to try to <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/break' target='_blank'>break</a> up the couples. </p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> The show&#8217;s producers essentially hired whores to try to break up the contestants. </p>
<p> Probably the only show where you&#8217;ll hear the phrase, &quot;Hey Honey, I just met the nicest hooker out there in that jungle.&quot;<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p class="rtecenter"><strong>MR. PERSONALITY</strong> </p>
<p><strong>The premise: </strong>A woman must choose a husband from a group of men who are all wearing masks that make them look like they&#8217;re about to reveal magic&#8217;s greatest secrets. The line of thought being that she will base her decision upon their personalities and not their looks.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> It presupposes that all woman are shallow and that ugly people are not capable of finding meaningful relationships in life.</p>
<p> Hosted by <a href="http://chickipedia.com/monica-lewinsky" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><strong>Monica Lewinsky</strong></a>, a woman who would have fit in perfectly on <em>Joe Millionaire</em>.<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="252" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/the-littlest-groom.jpg" /><br /> <strong>THE LITTLEST GROOM</strong></p>
<p> <strong>The premise: </strong>A 4&#8217;5&quot; bachelor tries to find the perfect woman for himself amongst a group of both dwarf and average-sized women.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> Though the producers insist that they were celebrating the diversity of their contestants, the show sparked outcry from little people. It&#8217;s a complicated issue as the show could have either a damaging or positive effect on the public perception.</p>
<p> Personally I find it offensive that this show was a contest built around dwarfism. If the producers really wanted to create a dialogue they would simply cast people of all different shapes and sizes in their non-themed dating shows like <em>The Bachelor</em>. And <em>I Love New York </em>doesn&#8217;t count because a.) that show is a circus and b.) they named the character &quot;Midget Mac&quot;.&nbsp; Why can&#8217;t he just be named Mac?<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="385" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/the-swan.jpg" /><br /> <strong>THE SWAN</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> Less-than-attractive women work with plastic surgeons in order to win a beauty pageant.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> The show was lambasted for being&nbsp; devoid of ethics and a commercial for plastic surgery that promoted an unhealthy view of beauty which preyed upon the weak-minded.</p>
<p> Question: Once the ladies got super-sexy did they all quit their jobs at the grocery store?<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="338" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/dance_your_ass_off.jpg" /><br /> <strong>DANCE YOUR ASS OFF</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> Overweight contestants team up with professional dancers to win the competition-based show and lose weight in the process.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> Though the intention of the show is to help people improve their health and sick-ass dance moves, it is presented in a somewhat exploitative way with many of the laughs being based around the humorous appearance of a plus-sized person dropping it like its hot.</p>
<p> This show is the equivalent of chasing a Twinkie on a treadmill.<br /> &nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="rtecenter"><img width="450" height="338" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/britney-kevin-chaotic.jpg" /><br /> <strong>BRITNEY AND KEVIN: CHAOTIC</strong></p>
<p class="rteleft"><strong>The premise: </strong>A look into the private lives of then-couple Britney Spears and Kevin Federline.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> This was the first glimpse of crazy Britney. The Britney that would shave her head and bring an umbrella to a car fight.</p>
<p> If memory serves she was talking about her experiences with aliens on the show. And I don&#8217;t mean the ones that empty her ashtrays and pick up after her around the house.</p>

<p> <img width="450" height="338" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/cheaters.jpg" /></p>
<p class="rtecenter"><strong>CHEATERS</strong></p>
<p class="rteleft"><strong>The premise:</strong> Cheating lovers and spouses are caught in the act by investigative camera crews.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> The show often leads to violence. Including one time where the host was stabbed on camera by a man caught in the act. Usually you need to turn on Telemundo to see something like that.</p>
<p> Another time the host was attacked with a katana replica. To think, someone who owns a katana replica actually found two mates.</p>
<p class="rtecenter">
<p> <img width="450" height="298" alt='' src="http://cdn2.screenjunkies.com/wp-content/uploads/images/2009/the%20will.jpg" /><br /> <strong>THE WILL</strong></p>
<p><strong>The premise:</strong> A wealthy land developer held a competition to decide which member of his family would win his abundant inheritance.</p>
<p> <strong>The controversy:</strong> I don&#8217;t really see a controversy. I mean, it&#8217;s gross but not anything to get up in arms about. </p>
<p> When I&#8217;m old and rich I&#8217;m not going to buy people <a href='http://www.screenjunkies.com/movies/films/i-am' target='_blank'>I am</a> going to hunt them for sport. Run for your life, Letter Carrier!</p>
