Have you already been on Dancing On Ice? Is Splash! not returning your calls? If that's the case, worry not, welcome to The Jump. Channel 4's latest abysmal attempt to fill a Big Brother-shaped hole in their schedules.
While Emma Willis was fronting one of the best-ever series of Celebrity Big Brother over on Channel 5, poor old Davina McCall was freezing her bits off in the Austrian mountains. Celebrities on The Jump, you are live on Channel 4, please do not swear of break your f**king leg.
10 years ago, Channel 4 had an underrated and weirdly enjoyable reality show called The Games. Watching D-listers and members of So Solid Crew tackling weightlifting and the hurdles was weirdly hypnotic and fun. Don't laugh. It was.
The Jump should have at the very least been knockaround, trashy fun in a similar vein. Sinitta preparing to hurl herself down in a bobsleigh.

Update: Jalopnik says the ad is actually for Honda and it we will see it in full at the SuperBowl. The Hangover writer/director Todd Phillips shot it;
“the spot [is] going to mimic much of the original film, except this time prominently featuring Hondas. The big jump the two valets do in Cameron’s dad’s Ferrari? We hear this time it’s going to be a Honda Cr-v.”
Traveling like lightning across every Facebook account today is a 1o second video that has been blowing the minds of many and leaping from inbox to inbox. Check out our favourite truant Ferris Bueller (granted, a somewhat older Matthew Broderick) in this tantalizing clip about bunking off on work;
Of course the very first Chinese-whisper to begin spreading is that we can expect a surprise sequel for the classic 80′s cult hit on the horizon. There have been many rumours across...

Matthew Broderick may be returning to classic 1986 role, but this time behind the wheel of a Cr-v.

A 10-second preview of a Super Bowl ad took the internet by storm on Thursday. The clip featured actor Matthew Broderick throwing open the curtains of a window, looking into the camera and asking, "How can I handle work on a day like today?"
That's before the classic "bow-bow-chicka-chicka" from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" plays, ending the preview with just the date of the Super Bowl left to tease us.
It seems clear that Broderick reprises the role of Ferris Bueller, but the preview told us nothing else. The YouTube video listed no company and didn't suggest the product that the ad would ultimately feature.
MTV News reached out to both Broderick and one of the producers of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," Tom Jacobson, for comment, but neither responded to our requests.

The actress was forced to hire a minder to protect her from 'Twihards' – the name given to fans obsessed with the 'Twilight Saga' books and film franchise in which Kristen stars as Bella Swan – and he has now developed a cult following of his own.
Kristen explained: "The big jump for me, I guess was having security. And I mean going everywhere with you, just a big guy standing next to me the whole time. Jb is his name – that's my guy. And he would kill me for saying this, but even he has a goddamn fan site. All these girls have identified him and now he's known as 'Hbg' – Hottie Bodyguard."
Although it took her a little while to get used to, Kristen is now grateful to have Jb around because some of the more obsessive 'Twilight' fans are "crazy".
She told the UK edition of GQ magazine: "People are crazy.

Today marks the release of the GLAAD Network Responsibility Index, charting Glbt representation on television. The CW wins in percentage of hours of representation at 33%, while ABC leads in total hours. The big jump was at ABC Family, which managed 55%. While the percentages remained nearly steady with last year, the big news was a jump in racial and gender diversity across the networks.
Make It or Break It's Zachary Abel is feeling Awkward. Sadly, the blond gymnast hunk is setting up for a heterosexual romance rather than having a man run his fingers through all those curls.
There's something extremely sexy about Mila Kunis going off on a reporter in Russian when the reporter asks Justin Timberlake why he's doing movies instead of music. Russian is a great language to tell someone off in.
I hesitate to endorse anything in the New York Post, but they have a stunning...
