We’ve been following NBC’s freshmen drama Mercy a bit here at the site and so far, it seems to be doing pretty well and has not been canceled — at least so far. With an interesting premise and a cast that includes relative newcomer Taylor Shilling and Buffy alum Michelle Trachtenberg, the show continues to be one of the surprises of the season and will hopefully last until season two.
In contrast to Mercy, Law & Order: SVU is not a freshmen show and is still going strong after several seasons. Both shows returned to the air this week after the holiday break. In case you missed the premiere of these shows, or even if you saw them and still want to relive the magic, we’ve got lots of video for you today — courtesy of our pals at NBC.
In addition to the recaps, we’ve also got previews of upcoming episodes of both shows featuring guest appearances by The Soprano‘s Michael Imperioli, Lost‘s Naveen Andrews and Studio 60‘s Sarah Paulson.
Check out all the clips and interviews from both shows after the break.

Computers, like most other pieces of complicated technology, occasionally have problems. Fortunately, those problems are, more often than not, confined to our Windows and PC using friends. We Mac users seems to have pretty good luck with our software and hardware.
That’s not to say that the Macintosh doesn’t have any problems. It does. And sometimes, its just not worth the time and effort to fix it — at least to some people. Case in point is this video we’ve got to show you now, uploaded by YouTube’s FinalLevelTV.
In it, rapper/actor Ice-T shows how he takes care of business when his Powerbook is giving him some trouble. His solution is interesting, to say the least, but probably isn’t the best way to fix a broken Mac. Although, he’s famous and rich and I’m not so maybe he’s got the right idea. Maybe.
Check out the video (NSFW) after the jump. And please, if you’re Mac has problems, let us recommend someplace to have it fixed properly. We don’t condone Ice-T’s method and are sure that if he’d just given us a chance, we could have saved his Powerbook. Oh well, too late now.
