What can we say? We liked a lot of episodes this week. And hey, it’s a long weekend -why not treat yourself to something extra?
Here are our favorite online episodes of the week:
The Hangover Part II Gets Unscripted
This is as it sounds: hilariously off-script. The four leads from The Hangover Part II get together to answer questions about their latest movie (in theaters today). This is a fun watch whether you’re planning to see the flick or already have.
