JUSTICE LEAGUE: CRISIS ON TWO EARTHS -- CHRIS NOTH

The Continuum kicks off a series of interviews from the cast and crew of Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths with a studio-provided question-and-answer with Chris Noth, who plays Lex Luthor in the animated film.

In Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths -- arriving on DVD and Blu-ray on Feb. 23 -- a "good" Lex Luthor arrives from an alternate universe to recruit the Justice League to help save his Earth from the Crime Syndicate, a gang of villainous characters with virtually identical super powers to the Justice League. What ensues is the ultimate battle of good versus evil in a war that threatens both planets and, through a diabolical plan launched by Owlman, puts the balance of all existence in peril.

"Loki's scheming sends the Squad into twists and turns that lead them into the frightful center of Villainville and to mythical Asgard itself. But silly sibling rivalry with Thor threatens to destroy both Asgard and Midgard."

The episode was written by Nicole Dubuc and was directed by Mike Gerard.

FAMILY GUY: "BUSINESS GUY"

Hugh Laurie from House guest-stars in "Business Guy," the Sunday, Dec. 13 episode of Family Guy on Fox.

Here's how Fox describes the episode:

"When Peter gives Lois' father the bachelor party he never had, Mr. Pewterschmidt slips into a coma and not even Dr. House (Laurie) can bring him out of it. With her father incapacitated, Lois is given control of Pewterschmidt Industries. Peter convinces Lois to let him run the operation, but he gets power-hungry and fires the board. Mr. Pewterschmidt soon bounces back and tries to regain control of what he's built -- even though it may be more difficult than Christmas shopping for Peter."

Fox has also released an image from the episode. Click on the thumbnail for a larger image.



THE SIMPSONS: "O BROTHER, WHERE BART THOU?"

Fox has released an image and description from "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?," the Sunday, Dec. 13 episode of The Simpsons.

Here's how Fox describes the episode:

"One snowy day in Springfield, Lisa informs Bart that she and Maggie share a bond that Bart will never understand because he doesn't have a brother, so Bart asks Homer for a baby brother. When Homer denies Bart's request, Bart makes his way to the Springfield Orphanage to find what he thinks he's missing."
