[music] Paper Tongues - Trinity - Single

"Paper Tongues roll deep — seven members hailing from Charlotte, N.C., pile in and out of the tour van. Once on stage, this collective effect — as witnessed on the Single of the Week, Trinity — works wondrously. The rock, pop, and hip-hop galaxies collide in a flash of cutting guitars, beats, and bright pop melody, with lead singer Aswan North carving himself a spot as a new, exciting frontman in rock. Discovered by American Idol judge Randy Jackson, Paper Tongues hearken back to a time when bands operated like machines instead of slingshots." -- iTunes Store

[video] V - The Arrival

"Elizabeth Mitchell (Lost) stars in this reimagining of the hit miniseries. “Visitors” appear in every major city, promoting a message of peace . . . but are they a threat to our existence? As the world becomes fascinated with the V's, FBI Counter Terrorist Agent Erica Evans (Mitchell) discovers a secret that may threaten the lives of everyone close to her, including her teenage son, Tyler (Logan Huffman), who sees the V's as a new chance for mankind. For Chad Decker (Scott Wolf), a career-hungry news anchor, his exclusive interviews with the leader of the V's, Anna (Morena Baccarin), are vital to his dominating the airwaves. Father Jack (Joel Gretsch), a priest questioning his faith, is unsure about the V's. Seeking answers outside the church, he discovers there are other dissidents, like Ryan Nichols (Morris Chestnut), who is faced with his own life-altering decision. Never has there been more at stake. From Scott Peters (The 4400), V also stars Lourdes Benedicto and Laura Vandervoort." -- iTunes Store

Episode Summary
The visitors have arrived, but what is their plan for the human race? One thing is certain: Every person's life will change as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. V is the highest-rated new drama series on television, and this is your chance to get caught up.

In the last cliffhanger episode, several key plot and character points were revealed: Erica had lost her control over Tyler as she discovered he was now on the Mothership with Anna and Lisa; she also learned that Ryan was a Visitor. Father Jack was stabbed by the V's security guard from the warehouse, where evidence of experimenting on humans had been discovered. Valerie revealed that she is pregnant by Ryan (carrying, unbeknownst to her, a half alien, half human baby). And Chad, while doing a report on the Visitors' healing center, had been medically scanned and told he has a potentially fatal aneurysm in his brain.

[video] Bubba's World - The Compound

"Bubba's World is a ten-episode docu-reality series about the number one motocross racer in the world, James "Bubba" Stewart, and his unique situation. At age 23, he is not only the highest paid rider, pulling in over $10 million a year, but also the only African American to dominate in an all-white sport. Just last year (2009), he completed a perfect motocross season -- 24 wins in 24 races. From diapers to the bike, James has been home-schooled and molded into the racer he is today by his Southern family, who gave up their local Haines City jobs to form his multi-million dollar company, employing the entire family and 15 others. Set against a backdrop of his ghetto southern town, chaos at home, never-ending obligations, wild parties, pro friends, and plenty of family drama, Bubba's World is a comedic view of how surreal it is to be a “star,” yet still live at home and having missed out on childhood fun. James will do his best to rediscover his lost youth, make his own rules, satisfy some unattained dreams, and discover how good it can be to be "Bubba." But it won't be easy with a family and handlers who need to keep their "product" safe and out of harm's way. People Magazine named James one of the "20 Teens Who Will Change The World." And James looks to start making changes this summer . . ." -- iTunes Store

Episode Summary
The Stewart family returns to their family compound in Haines City, Florida from the Supercross season where James dominated as the number one motocross racer in the world, yet again. Hidden in the middle of an otherwise Southern ghetto, surrounded by orange groves and swamps, the 100-acre Stewart Compound is bustling with over a dozen employees maintaining the regulation-size racing tracks, washing the fleet of cars, taking care of the farm animals, and attending to all things “James Stewart.” But while Big James tends to the track and mom Sonya pays the bills, James and his little brother Malcolm get into trouble racing the work trucks around the race track and busting them up. To make matters worse, James finally tells his parents that he’s taking the summer off from racing -- for the first time ever.

[video] Justified - Pilot

"Justified is the story of Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant), a true-blue hero and something of a throwback, given to wearing a Stetson and cowboy boots, carrying his sidearm in a hip holster — a weapon he only draws when he has to, and when he does, he shoots to kill, because, as he sees it, that's the purpose of a gun. The character of Deputy U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens was created by America's pre-eminent crime novelist, Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty, Out of Sight), and is played by Timothy Olyphant (Deadwood, Live Free or Die Hard). The Chief Deputy of the Lexington USMS office is Art Mullen, played by Nick Searcy (Cast Away, From the Earth to the Moon). Working alongside Raylan are fellow deputies Tim Gutterson, played by Jacob Pitts (The Pacific), and Rachel Brooks, played by Erica Tazel (Life, The Office). Raylan, Art, and the other deputies do what all U.S. Marshals do — chase down fugitives, protect witnesses, transport prisoners." -- iTunes Store

[music] Kidz In the Hall - Jukebox

"The lead single from the Ivy League-educated duo, Jukebox, is the antithesis of Paul Simon's “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.” Atop a sparse club-banger with an undeniable, snaking bassline, rapper Naledge slithers around – doing his best to get pretty ladies to crack smiles (and hopefully more). With clever lines peppered throughout, the brash rapper just might have a winning chance. Double-O’s plush production on the duo’s latest full-length, Land of Make Believe, is completely sample-free, so that MC Lyte-assisted chorus on Jukebox actually features the femcee recreating a classic line from her 1989 track “Stop, Look, Listen.”" -- iTunes Store

[music] Iration - Falling

"Iration hails from the Hawaiian Islands, and the group’s tunes embody an aloha spirit — breezy rock rhythms mixed with a heaping dose of reggae and dub flavor. Falling is a boy-meets-girl, boy-falls-head-over-heels tale anchored by Micah Pueschel’s sweet, boy-next-door vocals and buoyant guitar riff. We suggest ordering an umbrella-laden beverage and letting Iration’s catchy melodies soak in." -- iTunes Store

Episode Summary
Single mother Sarah (Lauren Graham, "Gilmore Girls") and her two children Amber (Mae Whitman, "In Treatment") and Drew (Miles Heizer, "ER") are moving back home with her parents Zeek (Craig T. Nelson, "Family Stone," "Coach") and Camille (Bonnie Bedelia, "Heart Like a Wheel"). Sarah's sister and complete antithesis, Julia (Erika Christensen, "Traffic") is a successful corporate attorney trying to juggle work and motherhood, alongside her stay-at-home husband, Joel (Sam Jaeger, "Eli Stone"). Commitment-phobe Crosby (Dax Shepard, "Baby Mama"), Sarah’s younger brother, must accept adult responsibility when an old flame Jasmine (Joy Bryant "Antwone Fisher") shows up unexpectedly. Meanwhile, Adam (Peter Krause, "Six Feet Under"), the oldest Braverman sibling, his wife Kristina (Monica Potter, "Trust Me") and teenage daughter, Haddie (Sarah Ramos, "American Dreams"), learn that their eccentric son and Haddie’s little brother, Max (Max Burkholder, "Brother and Sisters"), is diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. Although each sibling and family has its own share of life to grapple with, perhaps this reunion is the push they need to help each other pick up the pieces and focus on the everyday challenges that families face while raising children and starting over. Savannah Paige Rae also stars. Directed by Thomas Schlamme.

[music] Holiday Shores - Phones Don't Feud

"Leave it to Holiday Shores to transform Phones Don’t Feud — which clocks in at just over two and a half minutes — into a micro-epic. The track begins like a lo-fi exotica flashback; then the Tallahassee, Fla.–based experimental pop quintet offers up a dreamy soundscape in which everything comes across as both organized and slightly out of phase. A disciplined bass line soon contrasts with a rollicky syncopated drumbeat, with Nathan Pemberton’s non-histrionic vocals serving as a narrative through line." -- iTunes Store

[music] Fedro - Solo un Día

"Sonora native Fedro honed his vocal chops in musicals, but he tackles Adan Romero’s banda/norteño ode to jealous passion, Solo Un Dia, and gives it a dramatic pop makeover. The melancholy tubas are replaced with an updated tex-mex flavored guitar progression and accented with a few strategically placed shivers of the shekere. With Fedro’s intimate vocal style, it’s a loving interpretation." -- iTunes Store
