That’s right, it’s Friday. Fortunately, as bad as the week can sometimes get, we can always look forward to this day showing up to help us end the week correctly and get ready for the weekend.
One way Friday helps do that is by providing us with brand new episodes of some of our favorite shows: Grimm and Dracula. And to get you ready for tonights new episodes, we’ve got previews. Duh, of course we do.
First off with Grimm, it’s a bit of domestic bliss as Monroe and Rosalee learn to live together. But all isn’t roses as Nick must do battle against an evil mermaid Wesen. Yep, mermaid.
Then on Dracula, an old friend drops by to cause complications for Greyson. And, of course, Dracula is up to his old tricks again too. We’ve also got a preview for this weeks’s Saturday Night Live with musical guest/host Lady Gaga.
Check out all the previews after the break and look for all the action to start tonight at 9/8C with Grimm.

Looks like Old Spice is still producing weird commercials, but now they’ve got a brand new spokesman in Fabio. Improvement?
While the Dark Knight Rises teaser was pretty awesome, it’s nowhere near as awesome as the trailer mashed up with Batman: The Animated Series.
Lady GaGa’s Born This Way has got an X-Men makeover, and now there’s even a killer video to go along with it.
Beastie Boys get an amazing new music video for the classic hit Sure Shot, but this time with the Muppets from Sesame Street.

We don’t usually post highlights from Saturday Night Live here at the site. However, in the case of last night’s season finale with host Justin Timberlake and musical guest Lady Gaga, the footage is just too funny to pass up.
Obviously, others agree as the finale scored the best ratings for the show in seven years, Plus, we got another in the series of digital shorts with Timberlake and Andy Samberg, which started several years go with Dick in a Box, then Motherlover and now with last night’s new one: 3-Way.
The new short also features Lady Gaga and goes a long way to explain the rules, well at least the “Golden Rule”, when it comes to a threesome. Yes, that means exactly what you think it means.
Okay, enough talk. Click through to check out highlights from the show. Great job SNL.

It’s no secret that we at the Flickcast are looking forward to the musical onslaught of new mixes being brought to the XBox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii with the upcoming DJ Hero 2. One of the biggest announcements to the DJing world for the game is the inclusion of deadmau5 (pronounced “dead mouse” in case you were wondering).
While his name isn’t what one would consider household yet, you may have heard the work of the Canadian house DJ without even knowing it. deadmau5 was one of the guests at Activision’s star studded pre-E3 party to help promote DJ Hero 2. Also, in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the Nintendo DS, PSP and iPhone, there was a radio station dedicated to the giant red headed deceased rodent.
An award winning DJ, deadmau5 will be a selectable avatar in DJ Hero 2. In addition, his track “Ghosts ‘N’ Stuff” which won the International Dance Music Award for 2010’s Best Electro Track will be mixed with Lady Gaga’s just dance. Take a peek after the jump at a :30 clip of the song.
Make sure to also take a look at some of the screens of deadmau5 in action as well. See it all after the break.

Activision has released two new pop themed DLC packs, one for DJ Hero and another for their Guitar Hero series, and headlining both is the ever outrageous Lady Gaga. Lately Activision has been embracing the popularity of Gaga as they have also had her song “Just Dance” as the focus of the DJ Hero 2 trailer that was released just in time for E3.
For DJ Hero, the Dance Party Mix Pack will include three mashups exclusive to the DJ Hero series. First will be a mix of Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance” along with the 80’s classic “Girl’s on Film” by Duran Duran. In addition, R & B vixen Rihanna lends her voice to DJ Hero as well with a beat juggle of her Top 40 hit “S.O.S.” while the lovely ladies of the Pussycat Dolls’ “Buttons” also makes a beat juggle appearance as well. Trailers of all three songs can be viewed after the jump.
Meanwhile on the Guitar Hero side of things, people’s living room garage band will finally be able to play Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance” (not a remix or mashup) with the Pop 1 Track Pack. Joining her will be one of Maroon 5’s earlier hits “This Love” and recent synth pop anthem “Fireflies” from Owl City.
The DJ Hero Dance Party Mix Pack is available on Xbox Marketplace for 640 Microsoft Points and the PlayStation Store for $7.99. All mixes are available as singles for the Wii for 300 Wii Points each.
The Pop 1 Track Pack will sell for 440 Microsoft Points on the XBox 360, $5.49 on the PlayStation Store and 550 Wii Points. All songs will be available individually for 160 Microsoft Points, $1.99 and 200 Wii Points respectively.
Check out previews of the DLC content after the break.

On Wednesday, the Flickcast revealed the announcement from Activision for DJ Hero 2 , the sequel to one of our favorite music genre games of last year. Today, with the reveal trailer for the game, we have to issue a quick revision to our original post. It stated that the game would include two turntables that could be used simultaneously with one mixer. This is incorrect. The real reason for the two turntables is to allow for two player sessions of the game. We apologize for any confusion on this.
Now, on to the trailer. Though somewhat stylized, it wasn’t what one would expect from DJ Hero. Instead it ends up feel more like a Nintendo Wii trailer showing the participants in action rather than just the gameplay or focus on the music. Featuring a remix of Lady Gaga’s “Just Dance” performed with two DJs and a singer, the multiplayer party aspect looks to be the main marketing message of the game.
Take a peek below at the reveal trailer for DJ Hero 2 and the screen shots which feature some of the game’s new features such as Freestyle crossfading and sampling in them. Just don’t let Matt Raub ever catch you dropping his microphone like they do in the trailer. Check out the trailer and some screenshots from the game after the jump. DJ Hero 2 hits stores later this year.

DJ Hero was a top game for not just the Flickcast, but for the whole video game industry last year. Not only was it a unique take on the music game genre, it was also one of the two best as it shared that title with Beatles: Rock Band in our Best of 2009 awards. Since we all know how Activision feels about franchising, we knew it was only a matter of time before they were going to announce a sequel. Today, that came to fruition with the announcement of DJ Hero 2.
DJ Hero 2 looks to take the original game’s successful formula and kick it up not one, but two notches. The original DJ Hero featured the newly created turntable controller and a mixer. The sequel will take advantage of the two sided functionality of the mixer and add on a second turntable, helping recreate a more authentic DJing experience. In addition, a microphone will come into play for multiplayer mode (or just a very talented multitasker).
Speaking of mutliplayer, DJ Battles will be added to the game featuring mixes created specifically for the battle mode. Party Play will allow for vocalists to jump in and jump out of songs while singing or rapping along with the current song. Single player has also been revised with the creation of the new Empire Mode. Empire Mood will be a career mode styled upon being a unknown rookie DJ who looks to become the CEO of a major entertainment empire, all through his DJing skills.

We all know the effect that Fox’s Glee has had on the nation. It’s brought the high school drama, soap opera, musical, and hour-long comedy together once a week, all while providing the world with a popular soundtrack every few episodes. It seems that Fox realizes what the have in Glee as they have picked up the show for an unprecedented two more seasons.
Before even finishing its first season, the genre-defying, award-winning, underdog comedy GLEE has been picked up through its third season, it was announced today by Peter Rice, Chairman, Entertainment, Fox Networks Group; and Kevin Reilly, President, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company.
“In just one year, GLEE has transcended the television landscape and emerged as a global pop culture phenomenon,” said Rice. “We are incredibly proud to have talent like Ryan Murphy and the GLEE cast in our FOX family, and we can’t wait to see where Ryan takes the show in Seasons Two and Three.”
This news comes as no shock to anyone who has seen Glee take over the lives of so many people, in both the TV and DVD world, as well as iTunes and CD. In the US alone, the first two Glee albums reached nearly 7 million downloads and their most recent album, The Power of Madonna, debuted at number 1, helping them surpass the power group U2 with the most Billboard charting songs of the past 10 years.
In tonight’s episode, entitled “Theatricality”, the gang delves into the world of Lady GaGa, and find out what it takes to become a true star, in every sense of the word. Catch the episode on Fox at 9PM ET/PT.

Regardless of how you feel about her, Lady Gaga is certainly a pop culture sensation. Fans across the globe are going ga-ga for her newest music video “Telephone” featuring Beyonce, which just hit the web. This week, they’ll be able to rock out to some of her previous hits, including “Bad Romance” and “Poker Face,” which are coming to the Rock Band store.
What’s even more exciting, and hilarious, is that Eric Cartman’s cover version of “Poker Face” is also slated for Rock Band release. The song was first heard on a South Park episode where Cartman would rather play Rock Band than save whales being slaughtered by Japanese terrorists. The cover has been the subject of many a YouTube video, including some remixes with Lady Gaga’s original version, and the version sung/spoken by the amazing Christopher Walken.
Not sure how much fun the original Lady Gaga songs will be to play on Rock Band, but the Cartman version is sure to be a favorite. The Lady Gaga Track Pack and the rest of the new songs available for Rock Band will be released March 16th for Xbox 360 and Wii, and March 18th for the PS3. Here’s the full list of songs.
