There’s a ceiling on just how exciting the Oscars (5:30 p.m. today, KTNV-TV, Channel 13) can get. You’re still going to have to sit through 18 awards you don’t care about to get to the six you do.

You’ll never see Tiger Woods leave the PGA Tour to spend his days playing putt-putt. Even if the mini-golf course were right next door to a Hooters. So why is Liam Neeson only making movies like “Non-Stop”?
In “Non-Stop,” Liam Neeson stars as an air marshal on a New York-to-London flight who starts receiving text messages from someone on the plane threatening to kill one of the passengers every 20 minutes until $150 million is wired to a bank account.
In the new comedy, executive-produced by the “American Idol” host, one of the main characters looks at a waitress and declares, “I kinda wanna eat off her butt.” Another guy ends up crying, and a third vomits in a purse.
The Christian Slater series, which feels like “Inception” remade as a USA network drama, is the perfect storm for a quick cancellation.
The smart, sexy drama kicks off its second season Wednesday, which still leaves you time to binge-watch the first 13 episodes.
Some of you are undoubtedly distraught about the Olympics coming to a close, but there are a couple of silver linings.
The Kevin Costner action movie feels like something Liam Neeson was too busy to make. Given the month’s incredibly low standards, though, it’s everything a February movie should be.
You might think the marketing campaign for a movie called “In Secret” would play things a little close to the vest. Nope.
Who should play the casino moguls in the event series, based on the book “The War At The Shore,” about their 1995-2000 fight over Atlantic City?
To mark the debut of “Star-Crossed” (8 p.m. Monday, KVCW-TV, Channel 33), which reunites former Dillon, Texas, residents Aimee Teegarden and Grey Damon, it’s time to check in on other cast members of the beloved drama.
Ever since the Oscar nominations were announced last month, some of you film lovers have no doubt been scrambling to catch up on the nine best-picture contenders.
The Sharon Tate murders serve as the backdrop of the latest investigation by the Las Vegas-based Ghost Adventures Crew. The new season kicks off Saturday on Travel Channel.
It’s the bat-excrement craziest major motion picture that in no way involves Nicholas Sparks to come along in quite a while. And it’s worth every penny of the admission price, even if you just sit in the back row and giggle to yourself.
The anticipated remake of “RoboCop” is technically better than the 1987 film, but the fun is gone as it stuggles with ethics.
