Katherine Heigl is still talking about how she’d like to return to “Grey’s Anatomy,” even though it’s reportedly unlikely. She continued her talk show tour in promotion of her upcoming movie “One for the Money” by stopping by “Anderson” (Weekdays, Syndicated) to wax nostalgic about her time on the show.

She reminisced about how much the cast had grown up together through the unlikely rise to the top of the series. “We’d shot about nine episodes and they were kind of talking about not airing it; that they didn’t like it,” she said. “And then they aired the first nine and our whole lives changed.”

While she clarified that she didn’t think she’d be able to go back full time to the series because “the whole point was to spend more time with my kid,” she had a solution that would work best for her busy schedule. “The best of all worlds would be able to do like an arc every season.”

McGee plans to print sections of the dictator’s work alongside commentaries from historians in his weekly magazine to allow people to gain better insight into Hitler’s controversial text, Der Spiegel reports.

While “Mein Kampf” isn’t banned in Germany, the Bavarian state government, which owns the copyright to the book until 2015, has not allowed the book to be published in its entirety, CNN reports.

Despite the many surprising honorees at the 2012 Golden Globes, there was one winner many were happy to see take the stage: “Homeland” star Claire Danes.

Her impressive performance on the Showtime series has completely gripped audiences and the grateful Best Actress in a TV Drama took the opportunity during her acceptance speech to right one particular wrong.

When Danes earned the Golden Globes for the same category in 1995 for her performance in “My So-Called Life,” the flustered 15-year-old actress forgot to thank some very important people: her parents.

The winners of the 2012 Golden Globe Awards certainly weren’t TV’s usual suspects. In most categories, the stars and shows being represented at the winners’ mic were ones audiences aren’t exactly interested in. TV winners at this year’s Globes proved that Nielsen ratings mean little to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, who gave nearly all of its small screen awards to actors and series in their first season.

It didn’t seem to matter that few people have even seen an episode of “Enlightened” or “Episodes” — or that “American Horror Story” is one of the most divisive shows among critics.

“Boss” star Kelsey Grammer, for example, beat out fan favorites Steve Buscemi (“Boardwalk Empire“), Bryan Cranston (“Breaking Bad“) and Damian Lewis (“Homeland“) to earn the title of Best Actor in a TV Drama.
