Take another ride with the men and women who keep the peace in college towns across America. Season 2 of the hit series, Campus PD, features new cops, new cities and first ever ride alongs with police officers in Mexico as they patrol the hottest Spring Break destinations. 

Tomorrow night, in the season premiere, police respond to a noise complaint from a house party near the University of Cincinnati with reports of possible underage drinking going on.  And in Highland Heights, KY, near Northern Kentucky University, a routine traffic stop for expired tags leads to a K-9 unit finding an empty bag that smells suspiciously of marijuana.

Campus PD returns for Season 2 tomorrow night at 8PM ET, directly following Attack of the Show. For more information, go to our Campus PD show page. 
 

It's a no-brainer that THQ created a sequel to the highly successful WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011. We checked the game out at E3 2010 and Joe Rybicki ventured into the ring to tell us all about it.

"One of the game's biggest improvements is the way objects and weapons are handled in the ring. Where previous version featured only the most rudimentary physics for objects in the ring, now things like tables, chairs, and ladders will break and deform convincingly -- and stay in the ring once they've been demolished. Furthermore, wrestlers will be able to interact with them in more convincing ways, like smashing an enemy's head between the legs of a folding chair."

Comic-Con seems like it will last forever and then it's over before you know it.  Our 9-part series with Olivia Munn, covering 48 hours and almost as many miles, criss-crossing the San Diego Convention Center with our trusty, musty camera crew by her side, feels much the same way - done too soon. 

Thanks and love to Olivia for letting us in, and then firmly but gracefully shoving us back out with a kiss before hopping a jet to over the hills and far away. See you back in LA! Don't go changin', hear? 

(Unless it's into that Emma Frost outfit, DAMN.)

Boy, oh boy...don't you just wish you could spend a couple of intimate, noisy days at San Diego's Comic-Con 2009 with AOTS host and Playboy covergirl Olivia Munn!?  Well, now you can't.

But she is trying to make you feel like you could. Rather than enjoy her fractional free time hiding from handheld cameras, she's put herself out there with our glommy, dubious video crew and is giving two full days of attention to us Comic-Con junkies. 

Join Ms. Munn as she gets made up, hangs with the OMFG (Olivia Munn Fan Group), grants interviews, meets Stan Lee, hosts the AOTS Panel and the Star Wars Spectacular with TV-cousin Kevin Pereira and tries to find the Star Wars Awards and...gosh.  That's just the first day. Tomorrow hasn't even happened yet. Just watch.

We're having a G420 Tweedup tonight starting at 7PM ET / 4PM PT!  Tweedup?  What's that?

Let's all share the best parts of 420 together...get totally faced and tweet along with us during G4's 420 shows tonight and let us know how you're doin'! How YOU doin'?

Plus, and this is best part, we'll be broadcasting a exclusive twitter-only movie commentary from Doug Benson himself throughout the 10PM ET / 7PM PT showing of Super High Me! 

Here's how to join in and follow along:

• Watch G4's 420 Shows and include "G420" somewhere in your tweet. That way, we'll all see it!
   
• You could simply watch G4 while relaxing in front of our G420 Twitterfountain, seen above.  It plays the latest tweets marked with 'G420', and let's you see what's going on in the Tweedup! After 3 minutes, it reloads and starts over. Go full screen, if you want...play with the settings.  You can't mess it up, just reload the page to reset it..
   
• This one is real easy! G420's TweetChat is works just like a chat room, only it's on Twitter! Sign in using your own Twitter login and that's it!
   
• Power-Twitterers tend to prefer Tweetdeck. If you're familiar with it, start a search panel for "G420".  Then it works basically the same as the TweetChat.

If you have questions, give us a tweet at twitter.com/G420! 

HAPPY 420

Ladies, gentlemen, and geeks of all genders (in the US only - sorry, New Zealanders), I am proud to have the opportunity to non-exclusively present to you via near-standard-def streaming video for your viewing ecstacy...

...the first episode from the second season of HBO's Flight of the Conchords -- exactly an entire week before it officially premieres!

Now, while I don't normally (ever) contribute to the physical being of our blog in terms of written content (you'll see why - I'm hopelessly addicted to runaway parentheticals), I've been a constant part of G4 and G4tv.com longer than just about anyone on the planet.
