South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker make a cameo appearance. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

Despite their estrangement from Angel (David Boreanaz), Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), Wesley (Alexis Denisof), and Gunn (J. August Richards) work on the same case as their boss. It seems a ring of renegade zombie cops is cracking down on street crime -- and even innocent street people -- using methods more than a little reminiscent of the real-life Rodney King case. Cordy and the boys learn of this from one of Gunn's old crew, who don't hide their displeasure that Gunn seems to have forsaken them to work with Angel Investigations. As Gunn and company team up with homeless-shelter manager Anne Steele (Julia Lee) (see "Blood Money") to protect her young charges from the violent pigs, Angel also becomes aware of the brutality. He works behind the scenes with Detective Kate Lockley (Elisabeth Rohm) to determine the source of the undead law-enforcement officials, eventually locating a police captain with a taste for voodoo and an obsession with law and order at any cost. After mortally wounding Wesley with a handgun, the zombies close in on the gang and the kids they're protecting. But just in time, Angel manages to undo the police captain's spell, stopping the cop monsters in their tracks. Angel has saved his former co-workers, and they don't even know it. Originally broadcast February 13, 2001, on the WB network, "The Thin Dead Line" marked season two, episode 14 of the supernatural comedy drama. In a brief subplot at the start of the episode, a woman named Francine Sharp (Marie Chambers) turns to Cordy and the gang for help removing a demonic third eye that has sprouted on the back of her daughter's head. This case will resurface in the next two episodes, "Reprise" and "Epiphany." ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

In the fifth and final season of The Jamie Foxx Show, up-and-coming vocalist Jamie King (Jamie Foxx) has broken up with his girlfriend Fancy (Garcelle Beauvais) and has embarked upon a nightclub singing career -- though not as the partner of Nicole Evans (Rhona Bennett), the girl who caused his split with Fancy in the first place. As his career moves in fits and starts, Jamie begins missing Fancy, and by mid-season he has proposed marriage. As a wedding present, Jamie's Uncle Junior (Garrett Morris) and Aunt Helen (Ellia English) turn over 75 percent ownership of the King's Tower hotel to the engaged couple. This arrangement is not to the liking of Jamie's former roommate Braxton (Christopher B. Duncan), who as King's Tower's general manager had assumed he would take over the hotel once Junior and Helen retired. As it happens, however, the marriage may never come off: Fancy has been offered a fantastic job in New York, and there may be no room for matrimony in her life. But when all is said in done, The Jamie Foxx Show arrives at a happy ending for all concerned, involving a wedding, a great financial deal, and marvelous guest appearances by Gladys Knight and Marilyn McCoo, respectively cast as Jamie's mother and new mom-in-law. ~ Rovi

As season four of The Jamie Foxx Show gets under way, aspiring actor Jamie King (Jamie Foxx) and sexy hotel desk clerk Fancy Monroe (Garcelle Beauvais) have resumed their relationship -- leaving Fancy's former fiancé, Dr. Silas Landry, out in the cold (and out of the series). Elsewhere at the King's Tower Hotel in L.A., Jamie's Uncle Junior (Garrett Morris) and Aunt Helen (Ellia English) have decided to promote Fancy to director of sales, and the hotel's accountant, Braxton (Christopher B. Duncan), to general manager (hopefully, this takes some of the sting out the fact that Braxton has apparently broken up with his girlfriend Cameron). Sizing up his chances for showbiz success, Jamie resigns himself to a "civilian" job with an ad agency called Jingles 2000, where he meets several new series regulars: boss Bob Nelson (Blake Clark) and co-workers Nicole (Rhona Bennett), Phil (Alex Thomas), Mouse (Suli McCullough), and Curtis (Chris Spencer). Despite the fact that he has taken the job on the rebound, Jamie does well enough to be promoted to supervisor -- only to lose that position and his whole job when he is caught making a demo tape with company equipment. Fortunately, he has become close with Nicole, who likewise yearns to become a star. Teaming up with her for a Vegas act, Jamie is delighted that his career is at last getting somewhere. As the season draws to a close, the relationship between Jamie and Nicole has gone beyond the "professional" stage, forcing Jamie to choose between continuing his singing career and returning to his first love Fancy -- a dilemma that takes two whole season-ending episodes to resolve. ~ Rovi

Originally planned as a silly vehicle for Chris Farley, in the hands of director Ben Stiller and star Jim Carrey, The Cable Guy became an opportunity for Carrey to flex some of his darker comedic muscles as stalker Chip Douglas. Matthew Broderick plays Steven, an average Joe who is forlorn over his recent breakup with girlfriend Robin (Leslie Mann). When he moves into a new apartment, Steven comes in contact with Chip, who shows up to hook up the cable. Before he knows it, and whether he likes it or not, Steven has a new best-friend in the obnoxious and clingy Chip. However, Steven soon learns that obnoxious is a walk in the park compared to Chip's behavior when Steven tells him he doesn't want to be his pal anymore. What's worse, no one -- including Robin or his family -- believes Steven when he accuses the seemingly harmless Chip of being a malevolent menace. George Segal and Jack Black also star along with Stiller, who plays twins loosely-based on the Menendez brothers. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Much as Keenen Ivory Wayans' I'm Gonna Git You Sucka parodied the basic elements of 70's blaxploitation pictures, this film written by and starring his younger brothers Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans pokes fun at the gritty "reality check" films of the 1990's, such as Boyz N The Hood, Menace II Society and New Jack City. When Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) moves to South Central L.A. to live with his father (who appears to be the same age he is) and grandmother (who likes to talk tough and smoke reefer), he falls in with his gang-banging cousin Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans), who along with the requisite pistols and Uzi carries a thermo-nuclear warhead for self-defense. Will Ashtray keep living the straight life or will he join up with Loc Dog's gangsta homeboys? And is his romance with self-styled poet Dashiki (Tracey Cherelle Jones) going to go anywhere? Big brother Keenen has a small role as a mailman. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Party-hard skydiving teacher Ditch Brodie (Charlie Sheen) has a knack for getting himself into trouble, but his booze-babes-and-planes shenanigans hardly prepare him for an international plot that pits Brodie and a mysterious KGB agent against a post-Cold War Russian villain called Kerr (Chris McDonald) and an American heavy named Ben Pinkwater (James Gandolfini). Aerial set pieces alternate with tongue-in-cheek flirtation and conspiracy-theory suspense as Brodie meets a beautiful new student, Chris Morrow (Nastassja Kinski), then must try to explain to the authorities how he allowed her to fall out of a plane to her death. Soon Brodie -- on the run from both Kerr and the police -- begins to realize that in espionage, as in romance, often nothing is as it seems. ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

Fatal Instinct is an Airplane-style spoof of the late-'80s, early-'90s cycle of erotic crime thrillers. Setting the plot in motion is a kinky murder. Armand Assante plays the cop assigned to the case; he's also the prosecuting attorney; the "Sharon Stone" part is essayed by Sean Young. A dash of Body Heat is thrown in the pot as Assante's wife Kate Nelligan plots her hubby's demise. Tony Randall has a bit as a judge, while the film's semi-mocking jazz score is provided by Clarence Clemmons -- who shows up on screen to toot his sax at various crucial plot junctures. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Al (Ed O'Neill) nearly goes out of his mind when he is unable to identify a song that he heard on the radio and has been humming ever since. In the midst of his strenuous efforts to pinpoint the song's title, Al manages to find time to berate his daughter Kelly's latest boyfriend, Vinnie Verducci (played by a decidedly pre-Friends Matt LeBlanc. We're not about to give away the name of the song, but here's a hint: it was a big hit back in 1962 for r-and-b singer Arthur Alexander--and the title is NOT what everyone thinks it is! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
