A modern-day troubadour learns the whimsical rules of the record industry after moving out to Los Angeles and becoming the subject of a vicious rumor. Henry Phillips travels through the heartland singing his satirical folk songs to anyone willing to give him the time of day. In the wake of a booking mishap involving a Christian fundraiser, however, Henry decides that it's high time he moves to a place where people can appreciate his twisted sense of humor. A few days later, Henry is crashing his brother's couch in L.A. But while his brother can't get an acting gig to save his life, Henry finds success almost overnight. A few solid shows later, and Henry gets a record deal, some radio airplay, and a positive write-up in a local paper. Not only that, but the pretty barista Henry's been admiring from afar finally seems to notice that he actually exists. Unfortunately, L.A. can be a fickle town, and when Henry becomes the unwitting subject of a nasty rumor, the success he's worked so hard to achieve suddenly begins to slip from his grasp. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A smooth-talking womanizer falls for a beautiful bachelorette who's keyed into his game and determined not to become just another conquest in this romantic comedy starring David DeLuise and Missi Pyle. Ted Davis likes to think of himself as Bachelorman - a superhero with the power to charm any woman straight into the bedroom. But Ted's new neighbor Heather (Pyle) isn't like the rest of the girls, because somehow she seems impervious to his tried-and-true pick-up techniques. In time, Ted manages to wear down Heather's defenses and the two become a couple. After winning the girl, however, Ted suddenly realizes that he might not be ready for such a serious relationship. Trouble is, now that Ted's experienced true love, he finds that resorting back to his old ways isn't as easy as he assumed it would be. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Here's the "High School" episode, wherein the series' stars flash back to their teenage years (complete with bad hair and worse outfits). Humiliated over being redued to working in the cafeteria of his former high school, Drew (Drew Carey) can't quite figure out how he came to be such a miserable failure. Rallying around our hero in his hour of need, Oswald (Diedrich Bader), Lewis (Ryan Stiles) and Kate (Christa Miller) each insists that he or she is responsible for Drew's sorry lot in life, thanks to miscalculations and blunders made in the past. It's a noble gesture, but in the final analysis Drew must admit the awful truth: He has messed up his life simply by being a "pity whore"! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Ross (David Schwimmer) discovers that Marcel the Monkey has become a popular TV commercial star (next step to superstardom: "Virus II"). Fortune also smiles upon Joey (Matt LeBlanc) during his tenure on Days of Our Lives -- or at least he thinks so until meeting his unbalanced "number one fan." And Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) finds that her songs may not be suitable for all ages when she plays for a group of library kids. Michael Lembeck won an Emmy award for his direction of this episode. Part one of "The One After the Super Bowl" originally aired in a 60-minute slot with part two, but was rebroadcast and syndicated as a separate entity. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Once again drawing from "today's headlines" for story material, this episode concerns itself with the notorious "Beltway Madam", who as owner of Washington's most expensive prostitution ring has plenty of dirt to dish out. Miles (Grant Shaud) manages to outscoop his competition by securing an interview with the Beltway Madam; the problem now is to persuade a reluctant Murphy (Candice Bergen) to go through with the assignment. And wait until you see who's been hired as Murphy's "Secretary No. 63." ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

In spite of some interesting names attached to this low-budget, embarrassing horror film (Rafael Buñuel, son of acclaimed Luis Buñuel is the co-writer and co-producer), the result is anemic. At the core of the story, seven athletes in training for the Olympics at the Falcon Academy of Athletics in Massachusetts are violently slain by a killer with a wicked javelin toss. Most of the women in the film are portrayed as lesbians (apparently a straight woman can do no more than wield a wicked crochet hook), or their gender is indeterminate because of the drugs they imbibe -- a side issue in the film. Clichéd, predictable, and lacking in suspense, Fatal Games was never released theatrically. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
