(Entertainment Weekly) -- Short films, long passes, and 8 other things we recommend this week

1. "Rome" Great Caesar's ghost! HBO's epic swords-and-sandals saga tells a story we never learned in history class.

Review: "Rome"

2. "Gilmore Girls" Rory, Lorelai, and Stars Hollow return to The WB for another season of fast-talking wit and charm. And, Luke? Say yes already!

3. Short films online No attention span? No money? No problem! Take in a slew of indie shorts from the recent Tribeca Film Festival at: www.amazon.com/screeningroom.

4. "Late Registration," Kanye West Stuffing his second album with humor and (a little) humility, the rapper-producer once again backs up his boasts with unbridled talent.

Review: "Late Registration"

5. Football Wives and girlfriends, beware: With the college and pro seasons just started, you have only a few days to say goodbye to your loved ones before they turn into men you don't even know!

6. "The Tender Bar: A Memoir," J.R. Moehringer A Pulitzer-winning journalist fondly recalls a beloved watering hole. It's like a wonderfully dry refreshment served straight up -- with just a splash of sentimentality.

Review: "The Tender Bar"

7. Death Cab for Cutie's "Soul Meets Body" video Musical notes (?!) float like lost balloons in an odd and lovely clip from everyone's favorite indie vets.

8. "Starting Over" This syndicated daytime reality series of reinvention therapy is "The Real World" for the "Days of Our Lives" set.

9. "Famous Pairs" A photo book in which iconic twosomes (like Frankenstein and his monster) are imagined as bottom-heavy fruit.

10. "To Kill a Mockingbird" Watch this classic -- in a swell DVD reissue -- if only to see why Gregory Peck's Atticus Finch is the father we all wish we had.
