"Chuck" already has a huge online fanbase. Now, NBC is hoping to harness the power of the nerd masses to help hype the show's return.

The network tonight is launching "Mission: Chuck Me Out." a social media-based game in which Chuckaholics can win prizes and other rewards by spreading the gospel according to Bartowski.

Using the already existing Chuckmeout.com site, fans can sign up their Twitter, Facebook and MySpace campaign for the game. Then, every time they preach "Chuck" or get friends to watch a clip of the show or otherwise pimp the series, they'll earn points.

Fans with the most point each week between now and March 8 will win "Chuck" gift packs which include goodies such as signed DVDs. The grand prize winner with the most points at the end of the game-- we're already betting Newark Star-Ledger TV critic Alan Sepinwall will be said superfan-- will have their photo featured during one of Mr. Bartowski's on-air memory "flashes."

"'The fans of 'Chuck' have been incredibly passionate and supportive of the show," said Adam Stotsky, president of NBC Entertainment marketing. "We want to reward this loyalty and activate further social conversation about the incredible new season."

"Chuck" has had a particularly strong relationship with its fan base.

When it seemed as if NBC might not bring the show back for a third season, the online Nerd Herd rallied to prove their economic power by organizing an effort to get fans to stop by Subway on the same day.

Subway saw a sales spike and ultimately signed on for a significant product integration deal credited with helping the Peacock opt to renew "Chuck."

Networks are increasingly turning to social media-based games to help promote their shows.

Over the summer, for example, Fox gave "Glee" diehards a chance to rack up points by singing the praises of the musical dramedy. And NBC helped pump "Community" by offering viewers a chance to watch the pilot earley by talking up the show to their online buddies.

"Chuck" returns with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, Jan. 10 and moves back to its 8 p.m. Monday slot Jan. 11.

TIGER Woods is ready to quit golf in a desperate bid to save his shattered marriage.

The 33-year-old world Number One told wife Elin he "will do anything" after being linked with a string of women.
Elin, 29, has agreed to stay with the billionaire star for the sake of their two young children.



But she has given him the stark ultimatum: "It's golf... or me."

Leggy Swede Elin has drawn up a strict list of rules for Woods to follow if he wants to win her back.

And the beauty, who would pocket up to $100million if she walks away, is insisting he puts their marriage and two kids before his golf career.

A friend said: "The easy thing for Elin to do would be leave him, take the children and get a divorce. She'd never worry about money again.

"She was close to walking out for good. She decided to stay for the kids' sake - but on her terms.

"They have agreed to try and rebuild their marriage, but Elin will be the one calling the shots. It will be a long time before he's travelling the globe playing golf unless Elin's by his side.

"Tiger will have to work long and hard to ever get her to trust him again. Quitting golf shows he is willing to sacrifice something he loves so much to protect his family."
Last night it was understood Elin had refused to let Woods tour until he regained her trust - or until daughter Sam, two, and ten-month-old son Charlie were old enough to tag along with them.

Former swimwear model Elin had been ready to ditch Woods after he was linked with a string of other women.

At the last count, he was said to have had TEN flings, with his conquests including two porn stars, a restaurant waitress and a nightclub hostess.

And last night reports in America suggested Woods was terrified that he might have fathered a LOVECHILD with one of his alleged mistresses.

Some of the women have said he didn't use protection.

It was even claimed by one Las Vegas insider that Woods has paid off a pregnant mistress - and was desperate to seal the silence of one girl, 34-year-old New York nightclub worker Rachel Uchitel, because she "knows too much"

Meanwhile the billionaire golfer was urged to copy David Beckham to repair his public image.

British golf agent Andrew Chandler said the planet's richest sportsman should study how the England ace handled accusations that he cheated on wife Posh with personal assistant Rebecca Loos.He said: "Beckham had a very strong wife who stood by him. The circumstances with Tiger might be different, but I think he'll get his life back on track."

If you've ever read PopWrap or been within a 300-foot radius of me when confronted with a clown, you know that I'm not a fan. So it says a lot that I not only watched all of "Modern Family's" clown-centric episode, but laughed my unpainted face off.

It's a true testament not only to my adoration of the show, but also to the tremendous talents of Eric Stonestreet (who plays clown-loving Cameron) that I wanted to watch despite my trembling soul. Tonight "MF" returns with a (thankfully) red nose-free episode that focuses on Christmas spirit (this is from yesterday), something Cam will undoubtedly have shooting from his fingertips.

I recently chatted with Eric about (shudder) clowns before quickly changing the subject to the pressures of playing gay, what it means to be a part of this "Modern Family" and who his on-screen dream mother is.

( If I was home right now, I'd be mixing up a bathtub full of eggnog and trying to squeeze a greased hog into a Santa hat. You don't think I don't miss that? )

As we near the end of the '00s (we say "oughts"), we look back at the really bad movies -- the lows of a decade that brought us such big-screen gems as these flicks: a breakdancer wakes up from a coma 20 years later, two African-American men disguise themselves as white girls ... and America's Sweetheart portrays an unstable stalker. And those are just some of the high-concept offerings.

Check out our countdown of the 40 worst movies of the 2000s. Let us know if we missed your (least) favorite film, or if we included one of your (real) favorites. Read on -- and enjoy.

When I started reviewing Japanese films for The Japan Times in 1989, many of the people making and distributing them were convinced that the Hollywood juggernaut was slowly crushing them. How could they hope to compete against superior Hollywood technology and vastly larger Hollywood budgets?

Enjoying the wintertime sunshine, Hilary Duff was looking ever-so-lovely as she made her way around Hollywood, California on Thursday (December 10).

The former “Lizzie McGuire” star was dressed casually in a Morrisey t-shirt, grey trousers, boots and a colorful scarf, toting her coffee mug in-hand as she passed by pursuing paparazzi.

In related news, Miss Duff recently chatted with Nylon magazine about her “Shine” tattoo located on her hand, saying, “It’s just for me to look at and remember. I feel like it’s easy to lose your shine, to lose that special thing about yourself.”

Hilary continues, “When you get busy or you get tired and you feel like everything is fake or the world is against you, it’s important to keep your character and to let your light shine.”

Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2009

The equation for breakthrough star is quite simple: one part charisma, two parts talent and just a whole lot of luck. (Well, our formula might not be precise but you get the picture.) And the breakout performer must connect with an audience with a role that leaps off the screen.

2009 was a great year for breakout stars; here's our list of actors for whom 2009 will be just the beginning of a long, fruitful career.
