  • While the change of seasons might not be as noticeable here as in other cities, Angelenos can still feel the onset of autumn. Whether it's the darker skies or the shorter days, fall has officially arrived—and with it, a surge in all things literary. Here's a roundup of local lit news and happenings because even in L.A., autumn is a great time to cozy up with a good book (we just don't need the extra down comforter, thanks).
  • Westwood topped a list of the best neighborhood for trick-or-treaters in Los Angeles. The real estate website Zillow plugged in a bunch of factors to come up with its list: the value of homes, crime data, population density and walkability.
  • Watch last night's "Sons of Anarchy" before someone spoils it for you and don't miss tonight's episode of "American Horror Story" for more psychosis/horror/weirdness. --- Sarah Colonna of "Chelsea Lately" to get her own show. --- More news + the TV Junkie Must-Watch Plan.
  • For British noir fans, the final screenings of Went The Day Well? at the New Beverly will go down very well indeed. Then, the Cinefamily's Thursday Hellraiser thrillogy will pin you to your seat!
  • In a bit over a week "Conan" heads to NYC and we'll be there too. --- We've found a ton of TV/comedy podcasts that you should check out. --- People's Choice Awards nominations start today. --- We have a very simple TV Junkie Must-Watch Plan tonight.
  • Labeled by Dance Magazine in 2009 as one of the 25 to Watch, Pittsburgh native and now New York rising star, choreographer Kyle Abraham brings his company, Abraham.In.Motion to REDCAT this week for five performances.
  • Things are getting heated for one real housewife of Beverly Hills! As anyone who's been following the show knows, Camille Grammar has taken every conceivable opportunity to bash Kelsey (who she lovingly refers to as "my ex"). She talks trash about his kissing skills, sexual prowess, and even the size of his mini-Frasier.
