...Mouse and The Mask,” a collaboration between celebrated hip-hop artists MF Doom and Danger Mouse (known collectively as Dangerdoom); and, oddly enough, the Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim programs (see review on page B7). Featuring such guests as Ghostface Killah (of Wu-Tang Clan fame) and Aqua Teen Hunger Force’s Master Shake, the album is unusual to say the least, but unusual in an undeniably entertaining way. The party is being put on by Adult Swim, and more specifically their college representatives from Harvard, Ross E. Arbes...

Daniels realized it was a stretch, if not a break, from his typical parts. "I took the role because I didn't know how to do it," he says. "It was new, it was unpredictable and there was a chance to fail." Which is what makes his success as Bernard so satisfying. It's the kind of role that nudges viewers toward a career reconsideration of an actor...
