Q: Did any of the winners of "The Contender" go on to actually win any boxing belts?
"The Contender," the once-hyped reality show that was basically "Big Brother" for boxers, was always itself something of a contender -- it had the goods to be a champ (such as the involvement of Sylvester Stallone and reality-TV guru Mark Burnett) but never quite made it.

Q: I've recently been watching episodes of "Heartland" and noticing that a number of people can also be found in Hallmark movies. Can you tell me what the connection is between "Heartland" and Hallmark?
The connection is Canada.
"Heartland" wears its location on its sleeve, so to speak -- the story is set in the sprawling Alberta countryside, where the filming takes place. However, a number of films and shows produced by Hallmark are secretly Canadian as well -- they either dress up a Canadian location to stand in for an American one or else they just make a point of not mentioning the setting at all.

Two back-to-back new episodes kick off with this "Pop Up" featuring Taylore, a young woman with elf-like bumps on her ears, and Jose, a recluse with a baseball-sized lump on his head. Meanwhile, Ken is covered in cumbersome, painful bumps.
