Charlie Sheen Tells Howard Stern He 'Loves' Mel Gibson, Plans Tell-All Book

Yep, it's been less than three hours since Charlie Sheen's last interview which means the actor was due for another round of speed-rambling. This time, the forum was the Howard Stern Show, where the Two and a Half Men star answered forty-five minutes worth of rapid fire questions from the host about everything from that time his gun "accidentally" fired into his ex-fiancée's leg to his porn collection. Click through for the highlights.

'Did They Expect It To Be Like a Normal Interview?': The Charlie Sheen Media Tour Rolls Toward Oblivion

By the time you read this, there's a good chance Charlie Sheen will have done another four interviews with TMZ, sat down with Telemundo for a 45 minute exclusive ("exclusive"), and written a column for The Breeze, the student newspaper at Rancho Cucamonga's Chaffey College. Which is to say: The dude can't stop talking. Hot on the heels of his interview with Piers Morgan on Monday night, Sheen was back on the Today show Tuesday morning with his new homeboy Jeff Rossen. How'd it go?

Late Night Highlights: Marisa Tomei Gets High with James Franco

Apparently this year's Academy Award ceremony was considerably less painful to sit through (and co-host) if you got high beforehand -- at least that is what Marisa Tomei insinuated when she visited Conan last night. Elsewhere, David Letterman announced who will be replacing Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men, Howard Stern and Jon Stewart recalled their gay dance parties, Jay Leno recycled a few James Franco jokes, and the South Park creators remembered their time at the Oscars.

As is customary, here are the best quotes until the next interview.

How Convincing is Kathy Griffin's 'Conservative' Getup on Glee?

When it was announced that Kathy Griffin would be playing a persnickety Tea Party-type on, Glee, suspicions abounded: How far will she go? How fun/insulting/great will it be? Is Sarah Palin a major point of reference. Whatever the answer, The D-List comedienne shows great potential in leaked pictures from the Glee set. Could this be even more brilliant than her Oscar predictions?

Charlie Sheen Reveals Drug of Choice is 'Charlie Sheen,' Calls Himself a 'Warlock' on Morning Show Circuit

Now that the Academy Awards are over, the entertainment world can go back to what really matters: Charlie Sheen. The Ma-Sheen was all over television on Monday morning, with interviews on the Today show and Good Morning America (the full interview will air on Tuesday during a special edition of 20/20), both of which revealed him to be a chain-smoking, angry "warlock" (his word), among many other things. Ahead, the craziest Sheen quotes yet... until the next interview.

Charlie Sheen Calls Two and a Half Men a 'Pukefest,' Wages War on CBS

The Charlie Sheen chronicles just keep getting better. (Worse?) After another public talk radio rant on Thursday, in which the Two and a Half Men actor trashed the show's creator Chuck Lorre and Thomas Jefferson (why not?), the actor called into Fox Sports Radio's Loose Cannons moments ago to level the worst insults at his network and sitcom yet.

Donald Glover Raps About His Junk in His New Video

You'll remember that Community star and Movieline pal Donald Glover enjoys rapping about his genitals. We're thrilled by that kind of behavior at Movieline and applaud his new video for "Freaks and Geeks," in which he storms about a warehouse and compares his thang to carrots and other fun objects. Enjoy.

Is General Hospital Drafting Off James Franco's Oscar Gig?

If you haven't referenced your Soap Digest this month, you may not have known that James Franco is returning to Port Charles for another brief arc on ABC's General Hospital. Because the Academy Award nominee apparently cannot get his fill of daytime. And judging by ABC's latest preview clip of the show, the network cannot get its fill of cheeky Oscar references.

Judging American Idol's Top 24 by Their Humiliating Victory Dances

Guys and girls, it's my favorite time of year: the announcement of American Idol's Top 24 contenders. Not only did we meet the final pack of singers last night, but Idol forced them (as is tradition) to dance like horny preteens while Ryan Seacrest recited each name in a cynical voiceover. I love these damn dances! They're kitschy, lame, awkward, and sublime. Let's pick the "greatest" jiver of all. (Video included.)

Original Glee Songs 'Loser Like Me' and 'Get It Right' Leak Online, Sound Like Smashes

If you frequent the pages of Movieline fairly often (thanks, by the way!), you've probably noticed my love/not love relationship with Glee. On the one hand, Ryan Murphy's series is always a threat to knock a scene totally out of the park (see: the Rachel and Blaine duet of "Don't You Want Me"); on the other, it's often pandering slop, unworthy of praise, adulation or even a permanent home on the DVR (see: Mr. Schuester singing "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer"). When the news that Glee was planning to use original songs on an upcoming episode broke, I assumed they would fall into that latter category. Leaked on Friday morning though, this Gleek is happy to report that both "Loser Like Me" and "Get It Right" have total home run potential.

Late Night Highlights: Watch DJ Pauly D Surprise Jay Leno With a Jersey Shore Duck Phone

Last night, DJ Pauly D gave Jay Leno an authentic Jersey Shore duck phone -- to The Tonight Show host's complete lack of delight. Elsewhere, Cory Monteith talked about meeting Elton John, Conan O'Brien acted out 127 Hours, Jon Stewart knocked Lindsay Lohan, and George Lopez added a few minority characters to this year's Oscar nominees.

Dear Firefly Fans: Haven't You a Better Cause to Donate Your Money To?

Dear Firefly fans: I read this morning that you plan to pool your money in a massive campaign to collectively buy the rights to your short-lived favorite TV series. The drive follows comments by its star, Nathan Fillion, who recently told EW, "If I got $300 million from the California Lottery, the first thing I would do is buy the rights to Firefly, make it on my own, and distribute it on the Internet." On the one hand, the cost of the actual rights would cost a mere fraction of that amount. On the other hand -- and I hate to break this to you -- there are far worthier uses of your money than reviving a canceled TV show.

American Idol Las Vegas Day: Cirque du Sob Story

American Idol dished two hours of giddy theatrics last night: We started with an hour of Las Vegas auditions featuring Beatles songs (courtesy of the Cirque du Soleil rollerblading clown show Love) and concluded with sixty minutes of the judges' first Top 24 invitees. BREAKING: I loved American Idol this Wednesday. Let's break it all down in the wrong order: We'll start by discussing the five declared entrants into the Top 24 and conclude with our (my) feelings about the remaining hopefuls. EXCLUSIVE: Still don't trust Robbie Rosen.

Late Night Highlights: Liza Minnelli Wants a Role on Glee

Do you know who would really, really like to guest star on Glee? Broadway legend (and apparently Lady Gaga's inspiration), Liza Minnelli. At least that is what the icon told Jimmy Fallon last night. Elsewhere, David Letterman mocked Lindsay Lohan, Joel McHale made fun of Craig Ferguson's newlywed audience members, and Conan O'Brien ate hot wings with Jason Sudeikis before performing a scene from The Social Network.
