What Is TV Pools Network?

TV Pools (TVP) Network is an online community for you, the TV-consumed fan. Here, you can start a pool on popular TV shows, awards shows, and sporting events to compete for points on the outcomes—and share your pools publicly or privately.

Send the pool to your friends, co-workers or other TVP members for voting, and prepare for an amazing race. Unlike other pooling sites that offer just a few TV shows to bet on, TVP gives its members complete control over running their own pools for ANY show or event. That means you can create your own questions, mark players' votes correct, and initiate heated debates. Points for each correct vote will automatically be tallied for your pool players, too.

There are no limits to creating and participating in pools, or the number of questions within a pool, either. Simply register for a FREE account to get started.

Meanwhile, check out the Talk About TV forums to dissect and dish all things TV. You know you have a lot to say! Or, catch up on Hugh Laurie, the cast of Survivor and more, in the Entertainment News section for headlines and gab.

'Bones' Digs Up Gravedigger Storyline

bones-grave.jpgBack in season 2, a super badass villain was introduced in the form of The Gravedigger, who abducted people, buried them alive and then demanded ransom to reveal their location so they could be saved before they die of suffocation. The case hit close to home as The Gravedigger took Brennan and Hodgins and buried them alive. Bones eventually revisited this storyline in the fourth season in which the Gravedigger was revealed to be Assistant US Attorney Heather Taffet, who kidnapped Booth and left him for dead. And since then, Bones fans have been begging for justice to be served.

How I Met Your Mother: The Fine Line Between Rabbit and Duck

barney-superbowl2.JPG

It's Valentine's Day on How I Met Your Mother and what better way to celebrate the occasion than to satisfy Barney's insatiable quest for hot women and argue about the fine line between love and hate.  This week's episode kicks off with a quick follow-up to Barney's Super Bowl stint in which he was holding up a sign with his phone number that says "Call Barney Stinson." That little stint he pulled evidently transformed his phone into a magical phone--- one that rings incessantly because an infinite number of chicks are trying to hook up with him.

House: Hugh Laurie-Leighton Meester Reunion in May-December Movie?

house-hugh-laurie-leighton-meester.JPG

Hugh Laurie's inimitable role on House is doubtless a full-time job, and for the better part of the show's six-year run, it has kept him from doing anything major as far as the big screen is concerned.

But after doing voice work for Valiant, Stuart Little 3, and Monster and Aliens, Laurie may just make that precarious jump from small screen glory to headlining in a feature film, with a much buzzed-about May-December-themed dramatic comedy, reports the Los Angeles Times.

the-hills-superbowl.jpg

Proving that you can own up to your mistakes, Audrina Patridge let the cameras roll for the Super Bowl party where she showed a bit too much skin.  As a star of The Hills, that hardly is a problem.  But sometimes things can get a little out of hand when it comes to being fashionable.

According to Hollywood Life, the 24-year-old Audrina suffered a wardrobe malfunction during the Maxim Party for Super Bowl XLIV last Saturday.  She donned a black mini-dress that didn't quite fit her well and was unable to contain her body properly.

Fringe: It's All About Family (And A Dysfunctional One At That)

FringeI just watched Fringe's winter finale. It took a while, I know. I figured that with the eight-week hiatus, I might as well delay watching Thursday night's episode a bit; the episodes preceding it were just so good, I knew I couldn't wait that long.  I ended up watching earlier today, rather than holding out for another week or so.

We've always known that the Peter we're seeing is from the alternate universe, that our Walter nabbed him after the death of the original Peter. It's the one major reveal I expected to see at the end of this season, not halfway through it. Imagine the possibilities of the gang realizing that their connections to the imminent catastrophic collision between two worlds is much bigger and goes way beyond Walter's knowledge and experiments. It's someone they've been working with! It's Peter!

'The Bachelor' 14 Episode 6 Recap: Rose Ceremony? More Like Blows Ceremony

2zirm82.jpgTonight on The Bachelor: Jake meets the families of his final four ladies (Ali, Vienna, Corrie, and Gia) and learns more about why three of them are sweet and one of them is spoiled. (Guess who!)

Then, before the final rose ceremony, Jake is dealt a blow that will CHANGE EVERYTHING. And by "change everything," I mean there will be no rose ceremony, because one woman drops out and the rest will join Jake in St. Lucia. So not much will change, except that Jake isn't making this decision. And maybe that's for the best.

Before we begin, check out my alternate headlines for this livethoughts article. (Clearly "Blows Ceremony" needed to win, given its poetic wordplay that rivals Shakespeare.)

Which do you like best?

Homeward Frowned
[Jake will be doing a lot of that tonight.]
Homeward Drowned
[Metaphorically speaking... unfortunately. JK!]
Home Despot
[Vienna reference: too harsh?]
Bringing Home the Mistaken
[Mmm... bacon.]
Home is Where the Harm Is
[This is simply true.]
Fly Away Home [Similar plot alert: A girl who can fly leads home some confused chicks who have lost their way and never stop quacking. ZING!]

Howard Stern is Serious About Leaving Sirius for 'American Idol'

howard-stern-sirius.jpgWe hoped it was a horrible rumor. But it appears there's more truth than fiction to the report that Howard Stern is being considered as a replacement for Simon Cowell on American Idol.The shock jock took some time on his show this morning to discuss the Idol rumors and in a very Howard way, he managed to stir up even more controversy.

While FOX has denied approaching the shock jock, Stern confirmed that there has been interest in him permanently joining the Idol judging panel. Perhaps most shocking of all, Stern thinks he'd be just the guy for the job. "If I do say so myself, I can't imagine anyone else but me replacing [Cowell]. I mean, I don't know. How else are they going to make that show work? Who knows how to broadcast and who knows how to be interesting? And who's not afraid to speak their mind?"

'Lost' vs. 'Fringe' - Who Has the Better Alternate Universe?

fringevslostalt.jpgLast week two shows created by J.J. Abrams centered heavily on the idea of an alternate universe.  On Lost, the show introduced an altverse where the bomb blew up the Island and Oceanic 815 landed safely in Los Angeles.  On Fringe, the team got one step closer to tracking down the man trying to bring down the walls between two parallel universes.

But which altverse is superior?  Which show handles the idea of an alternate universe more realistically, more dramatically and more compellingly?  It's the ultimate J.J. showdown between his former series and his current one.
