Holy crap! I would have never guessed that the voices of Billy in Billy and Mandy, Zim, and Alpha 5 were all done by the same guy! None of them even sound remotely alike to me.

You can kind of hear it when Zim gets low, he sounds a bit like Billy. Alpha 5, however is way the fuck out there.

Another interesting fact: in the Pilot episode, Zim was voiced by... Billy "Fry/Stimpy" West, who was taking over for another notable who had recorded some lines and been dropped...

Mark Hamill.

He didn't get to be People Magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" -- or Wolverine -- by sitting on the sidelines. Hugh Jackman is known for his incredible physique (those shoulders, those abs!) as well as for being one of the nicest guys around. Soon, he'll be getting ready for X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2 and literally transforming his body into that of Wolverine. And he wants you to join him in the gym and begin your own transformation!

One lucky winner will work out with Hugh Jackman in one training session in the early AM at a private gym in Manhattan sometime between Fall 2010 and Spring 2011.

- Train side-by-side for one hour with Hugh and his fitness guru Don Scott of Jim Karas Personal Training -- the same team who was responsible for whipping Hugh into shape for X-Men: The Last Stand.

- After getting your butt kicked, take home a personalized nutrition regimen complete with workout tips so you can live what you've learned at the hands of these icons of fitness.

Bid today -- and if you're lucky, you'll win one of the toughest training sessions of your life courtesy of the one and only Hugh Jackman.

Uh, no thanks. I bet this guy is scary during his workouts.

Profanity has risen 69% over the past five years on broadcast TV, according to a new study by the Parents Television Council that compared the first two weeks of the fall television season in 2005 and 2010.

The f-word was bleeped out or muted 11 instances in 2005 -- and 276 times in 2010, an increase of 2,409%. Shit was bleeped out 11 times in 2005, and 95 times in 2010, up 763%, the study reports.

The PTC says much of the profanity appears between 8 and 9 p.m., when children are more likely to be watching. For example, the f-word was heard during that hour 10 times in 2005 and 111 times in 2010; the s-word went from 11 instances to 42 in those same years.

Fox showed the greatest per hour increase of profanity from 2005 to 2010: 269% across all prime-time hours, according to the PTC.

“Our analysis of the first two weeks of this still-new fall television season shows a disturbing trend that shocked even us. Profanity is far more frequent and the profanity itself is far harsher than just five years ago," PTC President Tim Winter told The Hollywood Reporter in a statement.

The PTC calls for "broadcasters to set parameters and publicly explain their broadcast standards. Advertisers must also ensure that the language they help bring into our living rooms is consistent with their hard-earned corporate brands."

Hehe, 69%

Seriously though, if it's bleeped out who cares?
