A lot of times actors will do prep work for an upcoming film role. Sometimes it can be pretty intense, but for Justin Bartha and Bradley Cooper, prepping for 'Failure to Launch' looked like it was going to be just a whole lot of fun, according to Bartha on 'Chelsea Lately' (Weeknights, 11PM ET on E!). After all, they simply needed to hang out with Matthew McConaughey to develop a sense of friendship.Who wouldn't want to hang out with Matthew McConaughey? The guy oozes laid back and cool from his pores. As expected, he was shirtless when they arrived, so things were off to a good start. In fact, he was wearing only a pair of "little sweat shorts," as Bartha described them.
The problem was that he wasn't wearing anything under the shorts, and Bartha wound up sitting opposite him during their hang session. "So it's like the whole time I'm just staring at McConaugh-nuts," he explained. As such, Bartha was understandably kind of quiet and clearly not nearly as comfortable as McConaughey.
Family Guy: Peter's Two Dads

(S05E10) When I checked the schedule and saw the title of this episode was "Peter's Two Dads" I was a little torn. First, the Peter-centric episodes generally have a much higher chance of going off the rails. On the other hand, the possibility that it would be a play on the 80's sit-com My Two Dads, which starred Greg Evigan, Paul Reiser, and Staci Keanan, was intriguing. Unfortunately (probably only for me), that idea never materialized, and the episode that we did see still left me with something of a mixed reaction. On the good side, it was well constructed, and I give a lot of points to the writers for a well thought out plot. Chris got a bit of the short shrift, but using Meg's birthday as the setting for offing Francis was a good choice. It involved her in what was otherwise a mostly Peter affair.
