Our readers continue to contribute some funny, smart and incisive comments to our Today Entertainment Facebook page. Every Friday, we'll highlight those that really stood out. If you see a great comment throughout the week, click the “Like” button underneath it to draw it to our attention.

1. On "Lohan may be in jail for just hours"
Nick Bierman: "She is never going to change if you keep letting her get off easy. If I was sentenced to 30 days in jail guaranteed I would serve 30 days in jail. If the jail is so overcrowded send her to another one, or keep sending her to other jails until her sentence is served."

2. On "Professionals fired up over Kardashian split"
Lyle Maycroft:  "Oh, I dunno...I think the Kardashians are some of 'Star Trek's' greatest villains...especially the episode where they tortured Picard and...oh, wait...I thought you said CARDASSIANS! (Well, not much difference, really.)

3. On "Forget Edward and Jacob, 'Twilight' needs Team Carlisle"
Christopher James:  "I'm Team 'Guy That Tried to Run Over Bella' from the first movie."

4. On "Harry Potter DVDs will magically disappear"
Belinda Forman: "Shame on them — these started out for kids and now they are treating them as collector's items which will keep the children who really should get to see them from watching them — disgusting money-making ploy."
Story: Reader: Americans are violent prudes

5. On "Tito Jackson: Security kept family from Michael"
Julie Garrett: "There is nothing that family could have done if Michael didn't want help. He was a grown man, he made his own choices, as sad as the outcome was. The family doesn't need to think they could've stopped it. Michael was the only one that could have stopped it."
