• Who will win the Mirror Ball trophy? If you're a betting man or woman, be sure to check out our roundup of critics' and celebrities' 'DWTS' predictions (we even make a prediction of our own).

It's an exciting Monday over at Moviefone's Inside Movies. Check out the latest:

Oh. My. Stars. 'New Moon's' Robert Pattinson asks a female fan to strip. Shockingly, she complies. And there's video!

More Robert Pattinson action, this time speaking with fans at the 'New Moon' premiere. Check out the video and comprehensive Twihard blogger coverage.

What a weekend it was for the 'New Moon' crew. 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' blasted box office records and industry estimates with a $140 million opening weekend. 'The Blind Side' pulled in an astonishing $34.5 million to take second place.

Make no mistake: Moviefone's Inside Movies loves 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon,' which opens this week. But Inside Movies likes a good laugh, too. Check out its take on the 'New Moon'-themed viral videos. There's everything from a Kristen Stewart blink counter to a wacky Sims parody. Kids, watch out for the adult content!

In addition to all the 'New Moon' stuff, there's the latest on Aussie action man Sam Worthington, who has just signed on to star in 'The Last Days of American Crime.'

Recently, we were inspired by 'Parks and Recreation' to write a feature listing TV shows that overcame a rocky launch. Sadly, the reverse seems more common: shows that start strong but finish weak.

Our latest inspiration is the ongoing death spiral of 'Heroes.' (This week: Mohinder does something stupid! People's powers go awry at inopportune moments! Adrian Pasdar, pictured, looks like he'd rather be anywhere else!) Here's a once-inspired show that seems to be going down in flames after having run out of ideas.

Other times, shows peter out because of casting changes, bad writing or bizarre creative decisions. In each case, however, the audience feels betrayed and often deserts the show, leading to ratings death and what-went-wrong autopsies. Here's what went wrong on nine other good shows gone bad.

Some shows are creepy just because, well, they're icky to think about. Like 'The Girls Next Door' (twins sleeping with the same old guy!) or 'Hoarders' (the ultimate pack-rats!). Then there are shows that are frightening, but in a good way. Read on for eight such shows that make you look under the bed at night, avoid cemeteries, and ponder alternate universes.

Kelly and Patricia marvel over 'The Good Wife,' one of the best new shows of the fall season -- and the only legal procedural, to boot. Plus, they look forward to the 'Top Chef' finale and lament some DVR dilemmas (damn you, Wednesdays at 9PM and Thursdays at 8PM!).

Wossamotta U? You didn't know that Thursday, Nov. 19, marks the 50th anniversary of all things Bullwinkle?

The dimwitted but beloved moose, along with flying squirrel pal Rocky, foes Boris and Natasha, 'Fractured Fairy Tales' and 'Mr. Peabody & Sherman,' debuted in 1959 on ABC's 'Rocky & His Friends,' a twice-a-week afternoon series that moved to primetime when it shifted to NBC and became 'The Bullwinkle Show' in 1961.

The series was created by Jay Ward, the U.C. Berkeley and Harvard grad who also created the Cap'n Crunch character. And though "moose and squir-rel," as baddies Boris and Natasha so often referred to them, are beloved today, Ward's daughter Tiffany Ward -- who was 11 when her dad created Bullwinkle and his buddies -- says the show wasn't a ratings smash during its original run.

This week in Hollywood, it's been all about 'New Moon'. But don't worry non-Twihards, our friends over at Inside Movies have been working hard on getting you some great stories!
