| The Best and Worst of the 'Grey's Anatomy' Musical Episode Posted: 02 Apr 2011 09:06 AM PDT Grey’s Anatomy‘s long-awaited musical episode aired this past Thursday. The episode was centered around Callie (Sara Ramirez), who got in a car accident that threatened her life and that of her unborn baby. Sara Ramirez is a Tony-winning singer, so we weren’t too worried about her ability to carry a musical episode. As for the rest of the cast, including Chyler Leigh and Kevin McKidd, who also sang in this episode? Well, let’s just say some were better than others.

| Video: Stephen Colbert and The Roots Perform 'Friday' Posted: 02 Apr 2011 08:31 AM PDT Stephen Colbert announced that he would join band The Roots to perform a cover of Rebecca Black‘s “Friday” if fans helped raise $26,000 for Colbert’s favorite charity, DonorsChoose. (Editor’s note: DonorsChoose is awesome!) Not only did viewers raise the money, but NBC matched the amount. Last night, the performance happened on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (the Roots are Fallon’s house band), and it was every bit as glorious as you thought it would be.

| Parting Tweet: Is Neil Patrick Harris Leaving Twitter? Posted: 01 Apr 2011 03:35 PM PDT
Just one day after he won a Shorty Award for being the best tweetin’ actor, Neil Patrick Harris threatened to quit Twitter. At first we weren’t sure if it was April Fool’s Day prank as there are some pretty mean jerks on the Internet. But then Neil followed up with the tweet: “… april fools … My followers rock.” Fair enough, Doogie! Post from: Crushable Parting Tweet: Is Neil Patrick Harris Leaving Twitter? |
| April Fool's Day Is The Annoying Dentist Of Comedic Events Posted: 01 Apr 2011 02:53 PM PDT
And so that gets us to today, April Fool’s Day, whereby anyone and everyone who feels so inspired can make up ridiculous stories and ideas and then gaffaw uproariously when you confuse the sentences that they’ve strung together as truth. April Fool’s Day is what happens when the world turns into a smelly breathed dentist who makes you sigh through the exposition of a joke until he* weezingly get around to the punchline, which is always the same: Just Kidding! *My current dentist is a woman. And she is lovely. Post from: Crushable April Fool's Day Is The Annoying Dentist Of Comedic Events |

| If Only There Could Be A Pixar 'Totoro' Movie...! Posted: 01 Apr 2011 02:25 PM PDT
The “sneak peek” of the imposing Totoro looked cool, but readers caught on a) because of today’s date, and b) due to the quick release date of Christmas 2011. However, the funniest part could be the jibe at the end of the article: This is obviously a huge dagger into the hearts of fans hoping Cars 2 would be the next big film from Pixar.

| Whipped Lightning Needs A Drink(ing Game) Posted: 01 Apr 2011 02:52 PM PDT
Initial taste test: Take one squirt. Someone reenacts the infamous whipped cream bikini scene from Varsity Blues with the aid of Whipped Lightning: Put a cherry on top and go to town. Post from: Crushable Whipped Lightning Needs A Drink(ing Game) |
| Paige Presents: The Dangerous Summer's Concert Trip Posted: 01 Apr 2011 02:07 PM PDT Paige and her friends are heading to a Dangerous Summer concert (Dangerous Summer is a band, not a time of year). In the meantime, they can’t agree on what to bring, which way they’re going, whose name is whose, or who liked this band before they sold out. You can reach this post’s author, Paige Polesnak, at paige.polesnak AT gmail dot com or read more of her thoughts on her blog On Par For The Course.

Michael Lohan apologizes to his family. (
What is it about dystopian futures that are so endlessly fascinating? Maybe it’s the fact that so many of them are actually very real possibilities. That our world could turn into one of these can hit pretty close to home. Now that the news of Jennifer Lawrence landing the role of Katniss Everdeen in the upcoming film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ The Hunger Games has had time to sink in, we here at Crushable HQ got to thinking about other dystopian novels we’d like to see on film. There have been loads of successful film adaptations in the past– Battle Royale, Children of Men, Blade Runner, and Never Let Me Go come to mind– but there are still so many that haven’t yet had the cinematic treatment they deserve. Here are our top picks:
Dentists get a bad rep. Partly because they pull things out of your mouth that generally want to stay attached to your face in an often painful way. But also because many of them have a tendency toward sharing really terrible jokes. And when you’ve got a bunch of cotton in your mouth or a man wielding massive needles near your face, there’s really nothing you can do about that.
Alas, it’s another April Fool’s joke. 
It’s Friday (thank you, Rebecca Black), so naturally, this seemed like a perfect time for Team Crushable to break out the alcoholic whipped cream we currently have sitting around the office, courtesy of the good folk who make Whipped Lightning. Yes, you heard me: booze-laced whipped cream. Which actually does taste rather boozey, we were surprised to find. So, in honor of this strange new way to consume alcohol, we bring you Whipped Lightning: The Drinking Game!
