BC the cat survived, but likely used up one of his nine lives when someone shot an arrow through his head. The 2-year-old gray and white tabby came home one day last week looking like he was doing a bad imitation of the Steve Martin skit from the 1970s. BC's arrow was pointing front-to-back rather than side-to-side.

Welcome to the “Slumdog Millionaire” awards. I’ll be telling you really important things you need to know about what goes down, just in case you’re not actually watching. Or maybe you are watching — and reading this and Tweeting and at a party and playing Oscar Bingo and voting in a pool all at once. Maybe you’re that able.

A quick tip for those MGM executives so starved of new ideas that they’re plundering the vaults for properties, like “The Pink Panther,” to remake: Blake Edwards is still alive.

Steve Martin’s got a banjo album coming out, his first all-music recording. This isn’t a joke. Anyone old enough to remember Martin’s stand-up days, anyone who bought his “Let’s Get Small” comedy record, knows that he’s pretty accomplished on that instrument. Dolly Parton is on the new album. Now, I don’t buy lots of banjo-based recordings. But if forced to choose between music featuring Steve Martin and any recent movie starring the man, I’ll bet on the banjo.

Judd Apatow, writer and director of comedy hits "Knocked Up" and "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," is doubtless already a hero to kids who want to break into film or comedy. But once, he was just a kid dying for the autograph of his own hero, Steve Martin.

Dane Cook's rise to the pinnacle of standup comedy is undeniable. HBO has handed him the all-important one-man show, plus the "Tourgasm" series.
