TNT will preempt it’s primetime lineup tonight at 8PM and 10PM E/P to run back-to-back airings of it’s 1999 original movie Pirates of Silicon Valley. This is the only movie, so far, to depict the rise of Apple co-founder and visionary Steve Jobs, who tragically died yesterday at the age of 56.
The film follows the race between computer rivals Apple and Microsoft and stars Noah Wyle as Jobs, Anthony Michael Hall as Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Joey Slotnick as Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.
I haven’t watched the film in quite some time but I’m sure I will be tonight.

We’ve been bringing you plenty of clips this week from tonight’s Christmas episode of NBC’s Community. This marks a pretty big episode for the freshman series, seeing as its their first Christmas episode, their final episode of 2009, and even special guest Anthony Michael Hall stops by to play “Bully Mike.”
This episode also marks the first time both Anthony Michael Hall and series regular Chevy Chase have been on screen together since National Lampoon’s Vacation back in 1983. The folks over at NBC were thoughtful enough to put together a behind-the-scenes package of tonight’s episode, “Comparative Religion,” and we’ve got that for you today.
In the episode, the gang gets ready for finals, as well as the winter break, while Abed crosses paths with the school’s resident bully (Michael Hall), while Jeff (Joel McHale) decides to get involved to protect his friend. Meanwhile, Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown) decides to invite the study group to her Christmas party, and tries coming to terms with everyone’s different beliefs.
Check out the behind-the-scenes clip after the jump and be sure to catch the “Comparative Religion” episode of Community on NBC, tonight at 8PM/7PM Central.

Yesterday, we brought you a brand new clip from this week’s episode of Community entitled “Comparative Religion.” In this week’s episode, the A-story is about Shirley’s (Yvette Nicole Brown) Christmas party, while the B-story is about Mike the Bully (guest star Anthony Michael Hall) tormenting Joel McHale and the gang.
The Breakfast Club alum makes his first guest appearance in what could prove to be a recurring role in the series, as a middle-aged, mustachioed tough-guy who doesn’t seem to like the male members of the study group.
In this clip, Mike sets his sights on Abed (Danny Pudi) after all the Christmas cookies are gone. Jeff (Joel McHale) decides to do the right thing and step in. This episode also marks the first time that Anthony Michael Hall and series regular Chevy Chase have shared a screen since they played father and son in 1983′s National Lampoon’s Vacation.
