How many reasons are there to add Adult Swims Childrens Hospital to your DVR queue? Too many, but Ill throw out three big ones:
First of all, thanks to everyone who has downloaded the new Pop Candy app. I know many of you waited a long time for it, so I hope it delivers the features you want/need.
The Dark Knight has taken over Pittsburgh.
As you guys may know, I was a big fan of the first season of The Great Food Truck Race on the Food Network. This series is a reality show dream: It combines the best parts of Top Chef and The Amazing...

Happy Thursday! This week is moving right along, isnt it? Last night I watched an upcoming episode of Torchwood, which is really (ahem) heating up this season. Stay safe, Rex Matheson.
Remember how I told you the cast of The Big Lebowski is reuniting in New York? (Tickets sold out VERY fast.)

If youre a Twin Peaks fan (and if not, you should be!), youll wanna read this note from Pop reader Walt K.:

Good morning to you! Last night I got caught in the pouring rain with my banjo and I think my shoes are still drying out. (Luckily, the banjo is OK!) I also dreamed of playing casino games with Adria...
Last weekend I saw one of the best movies of the summer, though Im a little concerned that the theater was only half-full.

Good morning, all! Its a steamy Tuesday, and Im still not fully awake. Last night I caught up on Breaking Bad (so good) and ate a delicious dinner (ditto).

By now youve probably heard of "real-life superheroes," or the lads and ladies who put on costumes and fight crime -- just like their comic-book idols, although not always as successful.
Since this is Metal Monday and all, it seems appropriate to share photos from last weekends Wacken festival in northern Germany.
Note: This post contains info about last nights episode.

Good morning, everyone! Are you ready to start another week? I had a fun weekend that included seeing Attack the Block (highly recommended), buying a coffee table (long overdue) and eating many scone...
On Fridays I like to post pics of Pop Candy readers beloved action figures. Lets dip into the pool of plastic and see what we can find this afternoon:
Its been a few weeks since weve had a VYou chat, so lets do it again: Ill be answering your questions today starting at 1 p.m. ET.
