Today we present the third of our five - count ‘em! - part interview with Jason Segel and Paul Rudd, stars of the new film I Love You, Man, which opens this Friday.
In today’s installment, Segel talks with TOC Film editor Hank Sartin about what it’s like being the younger guy on the set and how he stays “likable while getting close to the creepy line” while Rudd claims he’s not yet the creepy old guy at the party. Note: The end of this clip features some NSFW, but hysterical, language.
For more, listen to Part 1 and Part 2 of this interview, then read our interviews with Jason Segel and Paul Rudd and look for more interview clips all week on the TOC blog.

After last week’s episode of 24, I’d just about written it off. Bill Buchanan has been silent clock’ed, there was no real foil for Jack Bauer and torture had become as ubiquitous as cell phones and yelling. But then I got pulled back in by the one character who’d almost become pointless: Senator Mayer.
The Trib says spring is coming at the end of the week, but I’m calling the unofficial start for today since, as I was whistling for my dog to come in from her adventures outside, I had to compete with the sound of birds chirping for the first time this year.
Crain’s is reporting that the Sears Tower will be renamed Willis Tower for its new tenant and owner, the Willis Group Holdings. Having come of age in the 1980s, that news made me immediately think of this:
What do you think? Am I the only one who thinks that’s going to end up on the cover of the Sun-Times tomorrow?
Update: In a post-script, Eric Zorn is already calling “old” on Diff’rent Strokes references to this story. On Twitter, jackflaps is suggesting it be referred to as “Wesley Willis Tower.”
Update 2: “Tomorrow will be too late!” says the Sun-Times. Well, kind of:
Update 3: Well that didn’t take long: “The Sears Tower” is now on Twitter.

Google’s efforts to create transcripts of voice mails seem to butt heads with its “Don’t be evil” philosophy. But I could see it being very useful in other ways. If nothing else, it will save our interns from having to write out our Q&As.
The funny thing about this is that this video is one of the few times you’ll hear someone acknowledge that Superman IV: The Quest For Peace existed. OK, it’s probably only funny to Superman geeks…which is why it was funny to me.
