...Best Party: EW (which, like TIME, is a division of TIME Warner) and the Sci Fi Channel's Saturday night bash on the roof of the Hotel Solamar. Sure, there were cast members from Heroes, Twilight, Lost and Battlestar Galactica, but any party where J.J. Abrams and Joss Whedon are the guys holding court is a geek's dream night...

The deal-breaker in the negotiations between the WGA and AMPTP is new media content. Those pithy webisodes of The Office and Battlestar Galactica? Someone wrote them, and wants to get paid when you play them on your iPod. In order to avoid a strike, said WGA West President Patric M. Verrone in a statement, "What we must have is a contract that gives us the ability to keep up with the financial success of this ever...
