In the first shocker of season 12, super model Petra Nemcova gets eliminated from DANCING WITH THE STARS – Season 12. It’s well known that models never get too far on DWTS.

The curse caught up with her when she was let go from the competition after tying for last place with Kendra Wilkinson and Ralph Macchio Monday night. Coming in last is the time when a solid fan base is your only hope. […]Read On »

While speaking to the press today, BONES showrunner Hart Hanson talked as bit about the Season 6 finale and teases about what to expect as well as the status of a Season 7 renewal. “The last two episodes of this season are going to run the whole gamut of tones that BONES does from A to Z – a lot happens in those last two episodes,” says Hanson. “I think the title of the season finale ‘A Change in the Game’ is about as much as I want to say about in any detail.
