In perhaps his most heroic act yet, former NYPD Blue star Jimmy Smits is hosting [1] Edens Lost & Found, a PBS program that will examine the need for green spaces in and around Los Angeles. The special will also delve into the area of environmental justice, thus saving Smits from disappointing millions who still expect him to play good cop. Fortunately, the show may also serve as a pilot for a brand new Smits series; LAPD Green.

The Governator is reportedly throwing a million dollar bash [5] on Friday, January 5th to celebrate his November reelection.

It remains unclear whether that fact will be advertised at the party, or if Arnold will leave it in the garage with his several gas guzzling hummers.
