• If I Can Dream is a new web series with a pretty amazing accompanying website

  There's also a regular 25-minute show on Hulu, but the website is what's new.

There are two hot guys, so there's a whole lot of stalking going on right now, but it remains to be seen whether they are hot enough to sustain my interest.

  In August, citing studies in several African nations that saw cut men were less at risk for spreading HIV, we asked, "If Circumcision Halves Risk of Spreading HIV, Should All Baby Boys Get Cut?"
