All of our favorite nerd pursuits combined into one product. Just when I thought I was going to die of nerve explosion while waiting for the next season of AMC's  The Walking Dead comic-to-tv adaptation, Z-Man Games and author Robert Kirkman's Skybound Entertainment announced a joint venture to bring the very first  Walking Dead  board game to retail this summer. We don't have very many details about gameplay beyond the general idea: beating up zombies, trying to live, collecting supplies, and so forth--pretty standard fare that with this license is going to be pretty awesome. Robert Kirkman heartily endorses it, and he ain't no shmuck: "I've always loved board games, but never knew they could be this cool! We've done test plays of  The Walking Dead  board game at the office, and the game play scenarios ring true to what Rick and the other survivors face in the comic book. I couldn't be more impressed with Z-Man Games." The game will be for 1-6 pla...

Showtime announces former Off the Map star Aimee Garcia will join the sixth season of Dexter as Batista's sister and a new nanny for baby Harrison. Ah, fresh blood. We aren't exactly sure what happened to Dexter's old nanny, but we don't mind another new face for season six one bit, particularly one this pretty. Fresh off the cancellation of ABC's Off the Map, TVLine reports that Dexter has recruited Map star Aimee Garcia for a new role in the coming season as baby Harrison's new nanny Jamie, and none other than Angel Batista's sister herself! Could there be romance in the air, amidst all the blood spatter? After Lumen left (and thank Harry she did), we know Dexter doesn't mind getting down a bit in the wake of his wife's murder. Oh, and don't worry about Dexter's former nanny Sonya, as the report points out "sources confirm she either got fired, quit, or died." Hmm. Alright then. Garcia joins several new faces for the cast of ...

The Bridesmaids scene-stealer is doubling-down with two new comedies. When I first reviewed Bridesmaids I was so swept up with Kristen Wiig's performance (the best film comedienne since Madeline Kahn) that there were few column inches left to talk about the other performances. As I exited the SXSW premiere, however, I recall saying to friends that "if it were a just world, Melissa McCarthy would be starring in films of her own." Well, there's nothing like a movie overshooting its estimates (it made $25 million at the box office this weekend) and receiving near-universal praise to make miracles happen. Deadline reports that McCarthy is teaming with Bridesmaids co-writer Annie Mumolo on a quest movie to steal the Stanley Cup for her dying husband. The husband will be played by McCarthy's actual husband, Ben Falcone, who plays the object of McCarthy's affection in the soon-to-be-if-not-already airplane scene in Bridesmaids. What disgusting things are in store fo...

Here are some that got our attention in recent weeks. Amazing animal stories Animals make headlines almost every day -- from silly stories to scary tales to heartbreakers. Thunderously purring cat Sound specialists at a British community college recorded the purr of a housecat named Smokey and said it was 16 times louder than the average purr. How many decibels? Bronx Zoo cobra It didn't take long for the alleged adventures of a cobra that disappeared from the Bronx Zoo to start entertaining followers of a fake Twitter account (one silly tweet) and a Facebook page. Shark jumper Talk about jumping the shark! A Texas fisherman was out hoping to catch some red snapper when a 375-pound mako shark (how long was it?) flopped onto the back of his boat in the Gulf of Mexico. Raccoon's sticky situation A raccoon attracted quite a crowd when he spent eight hours perched on a utility pole with his head stuck inside a peanut butter jar. The animal (what's his nickname?) quickly scamper...
