Here are today’s top entertainment headlines:

• A Canadian author has brought suit against NBC Universal and writer/director Judd Apatow, claiming that they stole her idea for the movie Knocked Up.  In the suit, Rebecca Eckler claims that there are several similarities between her book, also called Knocked Up, and the film.  We here at QSE throw our support behind Apatow and NBC in fighting this money hungry wench.  We know that Hollywood only produces completely original material and no one in the industry would stoop so low as to steal an idea from a book.

• Tom DeSanto, producer for the X-Men films and the upcoming Transformers movie, has announced that he has secured the rights to the online video game City of Heroes.  City of Heroes is a Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game where players design their own costumed alter egos.  At this time it is unclear if any female characters in the movie will actually be played by females, or if they will be played by males pretending to be females.

• All things must end, and now Bob Barker has taped his last episode of The Price is Right. Barker was the sole host of game show for the last 35 years. Those of you that have not spayed or neutered your pets… watch out. Bob is a crazy sonofabitch and will come after you. After all, he warned you for 35 years.

That’s all for today’s news, stay tuned to this channel for all the news that matters least but you still care about.
