    • 'Celebrity Apprentice': The 11 craziest fights ever [Video]

      Sure, it's fun to watch your favorite celebrities -- OK, your favorite B- and C-list famous types -- sell sandwiches and create commercials for mops in the name of raising cash for charities. But viewers tune in to "The Celebrity Apprentice" for the meltdowns and blowouts, too, and with a sixth all-star version of the show premiering Sunday on NBC, it's a safe bet that tempers will flare and egos will clash once again.

      Peruse our roundup of the 11 rowdiest rows in "Celebrity Apprentice" history, and then consider this: Five of Season 5's contestants are on the list below. (Warning: These clips contain adult language.)

      Lisa Lampanelli vs. Dayana Mendoza (Season 5)

      Was comedian Lisa Lampanelli just cruising through the entire season with a chip on her shoulder, especially where Miss Universe Dayana Mendoza was concerned? Or was the beauty queen truly not as savvy or qualified as the other contestants, relying on her Miss Universe looks instead, as Lampanelli charged so many times?

    • 'Parks and Recreation' wedding Pinterest board: So romantic, so charming

      And so devoid of even a single photo of Joe Biden. Oh well … now that Leslie Knope has married her real dream guy, Ben Wyatt, her crush on the Veep will have to become a thing of the past.

      And Ben is most definitely her dream dude, as the sweet photos gathered on the "Parks and Rec" wedding board show a fictional couple looking happier than some real-life marrieds.

    • 'M*A*S*H' finale 30th anniversary : The inside story behind the most-watched TV episode of all time

      Consider these numbers as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Feb. 28, 1983, series finale of the classic military sitcom "M*A*S*H" today: The episode, "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen," drew nearly 106 million viewers. The population of the United States in 1983: 233 million, meaning close to half of the country was watching this TV event unfold.

      [Related: Check out our 'M*A*S*H' infographic]

      Today's top-rated broadcast network sitcoms, "The Big Bang Theory" and "Two and a Half Men," routinely attract millions of viewers each week, too. Tens of millions. Outside of a sporting event or live coverage of a national crisis, in fact, it's almost impossible to imagine that 100 million Americans will be tuned in to the same TV show at the same time ever again.

    • 'The Walking Dead' preview: The best episode ever? [Exclusive photos]

      On second thought, no need to pose that as a question … this Sunday's new episode of "The Walking Dead" -- the 12th episode of Season 3, titled "Clear" -- is, in our humble opinion, the best episode of the series so far.

      We know, we know, that's saying a lot for a series that has shockingly killed off major, beloved characters and broken our little zombie-apocalypse-lovin' hearts more than a few times, but rest assured, we don't make the statement lightly.

      Last week, Rick Grimes shared his plan to take son Carl and newest prison pal Michonne out on a run for supplies, specifically weapons they can use in their imminent next battle with the Governor.

      Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) and Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) in "The Walking Dead" Season 3 episode, "Clear.""Clear," teased in these photos, finds Rick doing just that, and along the way he encounters a booby-trapped area that leads to a shocking discovery, one that just may be the thing that can push Rick back to the sanity he's been falling further and further away from since his wife, Lori, died earlier this season.

    • Yahoo! TV Q&A: 'Justified' star Raymond J. Barry talks about the Arlo shocker

      SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains major storyline and character spoilers for last night's "Outlaw" episode of "Justified."

      It's true … Arlo Givens, one of Harlan County's most notorious rascals, yet also one of its most oddly endearing residents, is dead. After taking a pair of scissors to the chest in a fight at the prison -- which is tied to this season's ongoing "Who is Drew Thompson?" storyline -- Arlo lived long enough to leave son Raylan with another unforgettable father-son moment: His last words to his son were, "Kiss my ass."

      And with that, Arlo was out of the picture, with Raylan getting a phone call at work that his dad had died, and boss Art having to force Raylan to take a couple of days off to deal with his daddy issue.

      Watch a promo clip from the "Outlaw" episode: 

      The presence of Arlo, and certainly the actor who played him, Raymond J. Barry, will be missed on "Justified." Yahoo! TV talked to the 73-year-old actor (and playwright, painter, sculptor, and father

    • 'The Biggest Loser' recap: Face your fears

      The episode title said it all: "Face Your Fears," and the contestants on "The Biggest Loser" found out that facing up to the things they feared the most was key to them being able to continue on their paths to healthier lifestyles.

      For Jackson, still our favorite Season 14 contestant, that meant taking a break from the safety and support of "The Biggest Loser" ranch to see if he could keep himself motivated. The episode began with a challenge in which contestants had to stack 25-pound cinder blocks in front of giant photos of each other. The contestant who had had his or her photo covered by the blocks last would be sent away from the ranch for a week, left to eat healthily and train solo.

      After a week of riding around on her huffy bike (and admitting she'd been a "raving" beeyotch), Gina almost certainly would have been the contestant her fellow players would have kicked to the curb, but Jackson begged his pals not to block his photo and keep him safe. He wanted to test himself away

    • Yahoo! TV Q&A: 'Biggest Loser' teen contestant Sunny is already running 5Ks

      The 14th season of "The Biggest Loser" is featuring three teenage contestants -- 13-year-olds Biingo and Lindsay, and 16-year-old Sunny -- who are learning new diet and exercise habits from the show's trainers and nutritionists, while also cluing viewers in to the ongoing, and growing, problem of childhood obesity.

      Producers chose wisely in casting all three endearing, bright, focused kids, but Rochester, New York, resident Sunny Chandrasekar is clearly headed for a successful future in all her endeavors. Sharp, sweet, well-spoken, and committed to making healthy changes in her life, Sunny, in tonight's new episode of "The Biggest Loser," tackles an extra issue when she has an emotional conversation with her mother about her health concerns and the health and fitness of the rest of the family.

      The teen, brave and savvy beyond her years, talked to Yahoo! TV about her decision to apply for the show, about learning that she and her vegetarian family are actually "carbatarians," about the

      Jones, a Pro Bowl wide receiver who helped his team, the Baltimore Ravens, to a Super Bowl victory earlier this month, famously made the 108-yard touchdown to open the championship game's second half and was the Sports Illustrated cover guy for his efforts.

    • 'The Walking Dead' recap: 'Give him the greatest night of his life'

      SPOILER ALERT: The recap for the "I Ain't a Judas" episode of "The Walking Dead" contains storyline and character spoilers.

      Ah, it's always the quiet ones. Despite losing her newest BFF, and what appeared to be a love match in the making, in Axel last week, Carol pulled herself together in short order this week to offer a novel and permanent solution to the gang's Governor problem.

      But first …

      Frustrated with last week's brutal sneak attack, Rick and his group are at odds. Rick and Glenn want to stand their ground and stay within the relatively safe -- ??? -- walls of the prison. In the other corner: Hershel and Merle, who probably wouldn't get a vote, except that 1) Merle saved Rick's life last week, and 2) knows more about the psycho that is the Governor than anyone else.

      "That truck through the fence thing?" Merle says. "That's just him ringing the doorbell." By the way, has anyone else noticed that Merle has sort of become the Peter Dinklage of "Walking Dead," in that he's getting

    • A very 'Parks and Recreation' wedding: 'I love you and I like you'

      It is only fitting that the characters who had the most charming (by which we mean, we cried) marriage proposal in TV history also had one of the most charming (by which we mean, we cried) weddings in TV history. Such is the tale of "Parks and Recreation" couple Leslie and Ben, who tied the knot in last night's "Leslie and Ben" episode (see, even the episode title is appropriately simple and perfect).

      [Related: Look back at over 80 TV weddings]

      Amy Poehler's Leslie and Adam Scott's Ben -- one of the rare TV couples whose will-they-or-won't-they portion of their relationship did not test viewers' patience -- decided to get married on the spur of the moment, after the Pawnee gala, giving them just two hours to pull together a dress, rings, and a marriage license, and fix a smelly situation involving stink bombs, in order to become Mr. and Mrs. Wyatt.

      Here, the best moments from the perfect -- well, perfect for Leslie and Ben -- primetime wedding:
