...burgeoning group of celebrity home-tour shows, a new breed of house porn for weary nesters with neither time nor inclination even to pretend to want to Do It Themselves. On E!'s daytime-Emmy-nominated Celebrity Homes (daily, 7 p.m. E.T.), host Suzanne Sena guides us from Hugh Hefner's grotto at the Playboy Mansion to Ed McMahon's baby pictures in his kitchen to professional former star Danny Bonaduce's guitar collection in his rec room.

...film, as one might guess, is extremely talky and incorporates myriad visual gags into the work. At one point, the protagonist is chased across the screen by a funny-looking monster; at another, somebody asks him about his personal hero while he is dressed as Hugh Hefner.  And throughout, the film’s often eccentric questioners—a large robot, a philosophizing guitarist, a strait-jacketed kook and a pillow-clutching man walking through the streets in baggy pajamas, among others—succeed in stimulating the viewer with their odd appearances...

...latest offering from Darren Hayman and the Scottish trio Hefner, We Love the City is a nicely compiled group of songs that definitely leave the Scottish hills in its wake in order to get absolutely bolloxed in an English pub. Unfortunately, the effect is probably a little more sobering than the band intended.  We Love the City contains a couple of bonus videos, and the band dons the most amazingly surreal skin-colored body molding outfit (members flailing and all) for the video of “Good Fruit” that makes Blink 182?...
