I am – Hercules!!

It’s a little scary how many contributors to Ain’t It Cool News are now making their livings in the filmed entertainment industry. (Of course, some were entrenched in the biz long before Harry Knowles founded this site nearly a decade ago.) Harry himself now has like four or five different features in various stages of development. Drew “Moriarty” McWeeny and Scott “Obi” Swan last year saw their screenplay “Cigarette Burns” turned into an episode of “Masters of Horror” directed by John Carpenter. Other enormously successful contributors continue to keep their AICN and professional identities separate.

Many may have wondered why “John Robie” (also known as “Aguirre” in AICN’s earliest days) cut back on his AICN contributions in recent years. One key reason is his alter ego, a funny fellow named Kevin Biegel, has been developing a career as a sitcom writer. As it happens, he has joined the writing staff of “Scrubs” and his first teleplay to see air is the 99th episode of the series, and it airs Tuesday night.

Kevin’s installment is titled “My Missed Perception” and it airs at 9:30. Another new episode, this one not written by Der Biegel, is titled “My New God” and airs at 9 p.m. The earlier installment guest stars the hot, hilarious and otherwise scrumtulescent “Curb Your Enthusiasm” vet Cheryl Hines.

Take up valuable bandwidth with your predictions and reactions.

“My New God”: 9 p.m. Tuesday. NBC.
“My Missed Perception”: 9:30 p.m. Tuesday. NBC.
