Only two and a half months after mentioning Neil Patrick Harris in this August 29th BlackBook gossip round-up he has finally tweeted his first tweet. OMGICU can have Tracy. We wanted Dr. Horrible and we got him. Our subtle ploy to mention the gossip item that “Neil Patrick Harris has been added to the revolving door of guest judges on American Idol” was clearly a compelling call to action, but we were even surprised at the rapidity with which he responded.

Whether you watched last night's Emmys on a dusty television set or on a shady internet stream prone to buffering and choppy playback (21st century chic, wave of the future, etc.), you probably noticed that TV's landmark three hour salute to TV seemed perkier than years past.

Because we just may need to consult it, as Christian Bale stated that if Chris Nolan doesn't come back to direct the next installment of the superhero saga, then he won't return to star in it -- although the airtight legalese in his contract negotiations mandates it.
