A Bot Wrote a 'Scrubs' Episode Good Enough for Zach Braff to Call for a Reunion
Bill Lawrence's Scrubs was a hit with the fans when it was on the air from 2001 to 2010. A comedy with a heart, the show had the unique ability to make you laugh out loud and cry all within the same episode. Whether it was J.D.'s daydreaming, Dr. Cox's ranting or the Janitor's utter nonsense, there was a charm to each and every character, and their interactions made for an entertaining show. It's hard to believe that it's been eight years since J.D. walked out of Sacred Heart Hospital for the last time (let's pretend Season 9 didn't happen, okay?).

'Game Of Thrones' Season 6 Sets Sail: Just Who Is Euron Greyjoy?
The Game of Thrones death count continued to rise this week, and the War of the Five Kings is all but over. The king of the Iron Islands, Balon Greyjoy, finally took a tumble - he joins Joffrey, Stannis, Renly and Robb Stark on the great 'in memorium' section of the show. As entrances go, the arrival of newcomer Pilou Asbæk to HBO's epic certainly wasn't an understated one. Making his first appearance in the second episode of Season Six, "Home", Asbæk's Euron Greyjoy spectacularly throws his older brother, Balon, from a rope bridge during a late-night storm. With the Iron Throne now up for the taking, have we just met another contender for the race -and just who is this mysterious new pirate?

Silver Foxes Of The Silver Age: The 'Golden Guys' Of Comic Book Movies
Forget your Jeremy Renners and your RDJs running around a CGI screen, give us an older gent any day of the week. It looks like the upcoming Wolverine 3 movie will follow the "Old Man Logan" storyline, proving once again that comic book movies isn't just a young man's game. When 43-year-old Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, some said he was too old, but as the Frank Miller/Dark Knight Returns era shows us, it is age which comes before beauty. You are only as old as you feel and let's be honest, Affleck has nothing on these guys, so let's look at the silver foxes of the comic book silver screen.

The 'Captain America: Civil War' Alumni: Then vs. Now
Some are calling Captain America: Civil War the best Marvel film ever! Marvel thinks that by the time Infinity War comes around there could be up to 40 Avengers flying, jumping, and Hulk-Smashing their way around our screens. We all know how an overpopulated film can kill a franchise *cough* Sam Raimi *cough*, but something tells us that the Russo brothers have everything under control. However, with an ever-growing MCU, we have to get the actors from somewhere. Hollywood has no shortage of budding young actors, but with the likes of Sam Jackson and Anthony Hopkins picking up roles (as well as Willem Defoe), there are some pretty famous faces filling the casts. Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson had to start somewhere, so just when did the cast of Civil War first step into the limelight?

Every woman, even a Red Priestess, knows that accessorizing is the key to a put-together look in Westeros. And as the premiere of Game of Thrones Season 6 shows us, Melisandre is no stranger to the powers of a good accessory. A shocking final scene to the episode, "The Red Woman" revealed that the necklace around Melisandre's neck is in fact the key to her power and those devilishly good looks — a theory some people have been guessing at for years. However, did showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss drop a continuity clanger with "The Red Woman"?

4 Actors Who Would Have Been Perfect As Light Yagami in a North American Version of “Death Note”
#DeathNote revolves around the tragic fate, rise and fall, of #LightYagami, a young man in his late teens who happened to chance upon a special notebook with the power to kill; with just a few words, a face in mind, and a name, Light uses the notebook, or the shinigamis’ “death note,” to abruptly change the world order, by eliminating all existing criminal elements in societies worldwide at his sole discretion, and wiping out everyone else—guilty or innocent—who have chosen to stand against him with absolute impunity, thereby effectively forcing his personal brand of justice on the world and elevating himself to something akin to the level of a mortal God.
