•Yo, dawgs, American Idol judge Randy Jackson is getting his own dawg pound, we mean MTV show called Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew. Don't be surprised if you see Idol castoffs turn up on Randy's show doing the cabbage patch and the robot?

• NBC's tree-lighting extravaganza, Christmas in Rockefeller Center, will be hosted by Nick Lachey, Ashley Tisdale and Al Rocker this year. Special guests include Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Barry Manilow, Taylor Swift, and Carrie Underwood. It sounds like a lot of but it's ok, since this area isn't really crowded during the holidays.



•The cast of Saturday Night Live performed live at a downtown comedy club. They performed skits that had been deemed too raunchy for TV. (Finally, we'll know what D– in a Box is really about. Whatever could they have been talking about?)

•A pop-up version of High School Musical 2 is hitting Disney Channel. Look for other shows to follow suit – we can't wait for pop-up Kid Nation!

•Will The Hoff ride again? David Hasselhoff is in talks to appear on NBC's Knight Rider, reprising his role as Michael Knight. KITT, the sassy talking car, already scored a recurring role in the sequel–and is getting paid more.
