When done right, karaoke can be an art unto itself, combining great singing with glorious stage presence.  When done wrong, as it is most of the time, it's painful and annoying.  While Simon Cowell frequently uses "karaoke singer" as an insult, sometimes the best musical moments come from a person on stage with a microphone and words on a screen.

Karaoke can play a crucial role on television shows.  Sometimes it's there for a simple joke, sometimes it provides a chance to show off, and at its best, it's used as a key moment in a character's emotional development.

We're in the final days of our "I Wish They'd Bring Back My Favorite TV Show" Twitter contest where you get a chance to win a Blu-Ray Disk Player.  Hundreds of fans gave responded to BuddyTV's Twitter account to let us know which show from the past they'd most like to see again.  Over 70 different canceled television shows have already been named.

The Veronica Mars team is back together tonight when a new series premieres on the Starz network. Party Down is a sitcom created by Mars' executive producer Rob Thomas. The series follows six wanna-be actors in Hollywood trying to start their careers while working for a catering company. Each episode takes place at a different catered event - a senior singles mixer, a video porn awards after-party, an out of control sweet 16 party.

Lizzy Caplan of Freaks and Geeks leads a great cast but the series also reunites Thomas with Mars cast members Jason Dohring (Logan Eckles,) Ryan Devlin (Mercer Hayes,) Ryan Hansen (Dick Casablancas,) James Jordan (Tim FoyleName

College admissions time—it's a stressful time for any high school senior. It's also a time when you're forced to make choices that will change the course of your entire life. On last night's episode, “You've Got Yale,” Blair, Serena and Dan all grapple with big anxieties about the changes that go along with college: Blair's got a case of Senioritis (and a tad of an entitlement issue) that threaten her dead-set hopes on Yale, Serena tries to decide which Ivy is the best fit for her, and she and Dan both worry about how choosing different colleges will affect—or possibly end—their relationship.

Now being a “shipper” is a very serious thing. I mean, as your characters fall in love, you do too. 2008 was full of great television relationships. We had to narrow it down to a lucky 20 for BuddyTV users to choose from.

Any shipper fanatic knows their “ship” inside and out. I, for one, will always be a LoVe shipper. That is - Logan and Veronica of Veronica Mars. 2008 saw the development of new ships, the crumble of others, and the long lasting tension of our older ships. Overall, it's been a great year for most shippers.

The competition will be fierce as there are a lot of fans out there. When we did our “Which One Tree Hill Couple is Best” showdown, Brook and Lucas pulled out the win from underneath Leyton and Naley fans. MiSa (Michael and Sara from Prison Break) fans have been known to be a powerful force.

Just in time for the election, BuddyTV brings you our list of the 15 worst politicians from TV.

This role may have revitalized Steve Guttenberg's career, but when it comes to TV politicians, a man who molested the boys on the Little League team he coached is clearly near the top of that list. The disturbingly named Woody Goodman was always a little peculiar, and even though he wasn't responsible for the bus full of kids that went over the cliff, his original molestation of Cassidy Casablancas was the impetus.
