Jorge Garcia is going back to the island called ABC.

The Lost alum will guest-star on Matthew Perry's midseason comedy, Mr. Sunshine, Entertainment Weekly reports.

Garcia will play a staffer at the Sunshine Center, a second-rate San Diego sports arena managed by Perry's self-involved character, Ben. Garcia's character will also be added to the retooled pilot.

Perry -- a self-professed Lost fanatic -- also serves as executive producer on Mr. Sunshine, which stars Allison Janney, Andrea Anders and James Lesure as well.

Garcia recently crossed over into music when Rivers Cuomo of the band Weezer selected a photo of the actor as the cover of his new album - called 'Hurley' (nickname of Garcia's character Hugo Reyes) - which was released Sept 14th. Garcia also recently appeared onstage with Weezer at a show - and here is some of the video of it.

This is the album cover. Pretty cool. Like the episode says; Everybody Loves Hugo.

In case you missed it, the L.A.-based Americana band Truth & Salvage Co. made its first national TV appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night.

The band got its start at The Hotel Cafe (among others) and has now elevated to a national level after touring with The Black Crowes and The Avett Brothers.

Their self-titled album is available in stores and on iTunes now.

Here are the videos of their appearances.

Even with Jay Leno returning to his old job on NBC, people still have their opinions on who they like or dislike.

Slash performed with Wolfmother's Andrew Stockdale last night and quietly showed where his allegiance was. The performance was edited oddly - particularly in Slash's solo part - to avoid showing it.

Go here to see it was.

After a slow start, Saturday Night Live has started picking up this season.
Last week was Zach Galifianakis, this weekend was Jude Law again and secret guest Jerry Seinfeld.

His last time as host was with the Ashlee Simpson, lip sync debacle whereas, this time there was no problem with lip syncing. It was Pearl Jam as the musical guest.

Some of the highlights of the Law's appearance last night included.
Jude as himself in a sketch about his audition for his current role on Broadway on Hamlet. Other actors who were apparently auditioning for the role were Al Pacino (impression by Bill Hader), Nicolas Cage (Andy Samberg) and Nathan Lane (Bobby Moynihan) with cryptic advise given by Sam Elliott (Jason Sudeikis).

Another highlight was a remake of the classic Twilight Zone segment of the creature on the wing of the plane that William Shatner (and no one else) sees. This time, it was Hader as Rod Serling and Law in the Shatner role. The creature on the wing is a bizarre looking fuzzy human-shaped being (again, Moynihan) who does progressively bizarre things on the wing, ended each act with a menacing, but comical jump into a threatening, fighting position. The creature first flicks a lit cigarette at Law's window, then BBQ's, exercises on a treadmill, then successfully moves a large, off-balance wedding cake from one high table to another, then chats and laughs with Pearl Jam until they all jump into the threatening position at the same time.

Law's appearance also featured him doing multiple different accents other than his own, including Americans in the Twilght Zone sketch and a skit about an annoyed lawyer bothered by a terrible stenographer and a Spanish-accented local murderer.

The news with Seth Meyers featured Seinfeld in the "Really???!?!? With Seth and Jerry." Seinfeld is a natural for that bit.

On Day #8 of the Paley Festival at the Saban Theater, Seth MacFarlane of Family Guy fame took the stage and talked about his shows, Family Guy and Cleveland (mostly.)

One of the more interesting bits of the information that MacFarlane shared was that his #1 choice to replace Cleveland on "Family Guy" after he went to his spinoff show "Cleveland" was actor Mr. T - as himself.

"It would be like Mr. T was in the show as Mr. T and he's just the fourth guy in the group," MacFarlane told fans at Paley Festival on Tuesday evening. Except, MacFarlane said about his show that offends just about everyone in regards to religion, politics and sexual innuendos, "Mr. T is a born-again Christian so it 'didn't really work out.'

Coicidentally, Cleveland played Mr. T's most famous character of "B.A. Baracus' from The A-Team in a Family Guy episode where the four main guys were stuck into an animated version of the A-Team opening sequence.

Bill Maher hosted the evening that was - well - very indicative of what you'd think MacFarlane would say in real life.

As another Fox animated television character once said.

"So many swears............"

He shaved his beard off for the last sketch Saturday night. Watch how hectic that was here

Even just hearing "Zach Galifianakis is going to be on Saturday Night Live' got people to say 'oh, I need to watch that.'

He brought many laugh out loud moments to the show and a few uncomfortable ones (no surprise). There was the sketch about the kissing family where he - as a priest - completely made out with Fred Armisen; the 'Zack Has Been in Show Business for 30 years' sketch where he appears in at least a half dozen shows over the years, but he is usually in the background waving at the camera (like behind Brian Williams at NBC News) or oddly part of the scene, including standing behind Anthony Anderson taking cel phone pictures of him while he and Jeremy Sisto talk to a witness in Law & Order.

He also played a strange 'disco flute' player - dressed in an ill-fitting jumpsuit in the 'What Up With That?' sketch and he and Kristin Wiig played a couple that asks the hotel bellhop way too many questions about of the hotel's bidet.

In something that he would only do, he shaved off his trademark beard during the show but off camera then appeared in a sketch playing a Liberace-type beauty contest judge, then reappeared in the closing goodbye part of the show - with a fake beard - just to confuse people.

Here are some of the Zack highlights
