Huffington Post: Keith Urban Talks Great Chemistry Of New 'American Idol' Panel On 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (VIDEO) Posted: 24 Oct 2013 01:45 AM PDT With the new season fast approaching, returning "American Idol" judge Keith Urban dropped by "Jimmy Kimmel Live" to talk it up. The only returning face from last year, Urban will be joined by returning judge Jennifer Lopez and new judge Harry Connick, Jr. And he made it very clear that this new threesome has great chemistry. But no matter how much Kimmel tried to goad him into declaring last season a disaster of catfighting proportions, Urban wouldn't do it. When asked if things were civil last season, Urban said, "We didn't hang ... as much." He went on to say that he had a good time last year, and it's a good time this year. Way to be bland, Keith! "You guys will see it. I'm telling ya," Urban insisted. The new trio does look more amiable, or at least seemed like old pals when they popped up on "Ellen." Everyone talked about how great it was, and Connick, Jr. was cracking jokes at Urban's expense. If nothing else, Connick, Jr. should be good for laughs when the new season rolls around. Read More...

And the defense minister added that Europe can't simply return to business as usual in trans-Atlantic ties following a string of reports that the U.S. was spying on its allies. Read More...

Huffington Post: 'Duck Dynasty' Halloween Finale: Uncle Si Terrifies Children As A Giant Mutant Beaver (VIDEO) Posted: 24 Oct 2013 02:45 AM PDT Halloween came to the "Duck Dynasty" season finale and that meant wacky costumes. And who's better at being wacky than Uncle Si? When Willie's wife Kori decided to turn the Duck Commander warehouse into a "scarehouse" for the neighborhood children, Si had a crazy idea for a costume. He came up with a giant mutant beaver that eats children. Hollywood Life's Andy Swift said leave it to the eccentric uncle to turn the lovable furry creature into perhaps the haunted house's scariest attraction. And perhaps even the stuff of nightmares for the local children. "Si proves that beavers aren't always cute," Swift wrote. "In fact, they can be pretty dam terrifying!" Meanwhile, as PennLive's Marcus Schneck pointed out, Willie was frustrated throughout the episode because he couldn't scare anybody. But all he had to do was listen to Si. "It ain't about the costume. It's about the attitude," Uncle Si said. And he made a beaver absolutely terrifying. Read More... More on TV Replay
