Stars: Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder Writer: Kevin Williamson & Julie Plec, Based on the book by L.J. Smith Director: John Behring Network: The CW, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: September 15, 2010 YAY! The wait is finally over and one of my favorite guilty pleasures is back! THE VAMPIRE DIARIES left us in a bit of a lurch last season with Stefan (Paul Wesley) taking off to join Klaus (Joseph Morgan) as he plots for the next phase in his supernatural vendetta. Poor Elena (Nina Dobrev) was left with only Damon (Ian Somerhalder) to make the pain go […]Read On »

Smith Director: Liz Friedlander Network: The CW, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: September 15, 2010 So THE SECRET CIRCLE and the show right before it on The CW, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES seem to be a really good fit for each other. This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone since they are both based on book series by L.J. Smith. THE SECRET CIRCLE was described to me as THE CRAFT the […]Read On »

The CW has a new series based on a series of books by novelist L.J. Smith and produced/show-run by Kevin Williamson, about secret supernatural goings-on in a small town. No, it’s not THE VAMPIRE DIARIES (which has all of those attributes, except newness, as it’s going into Season Three) – it’s THE SECRET CIRCLE. Brittany Robertson plays Cassie Blake, a young woman who is forced by tragedy to move back to her family’s home town, where she discovers that she and many of her new neighbors are witches, able to tap into innate magical powers. Thomas Dekker (TERMINATOR: THE SARAH […]Read On »

Stars: Christina Applegate, Will Arnett, Maya Rudolph Writer: Emily Spivey Director: James Griffiths Network: NBC, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: September 14, 2011 It’s been a tough road for NBC the last couple of years what with mergers and executive turnovers, but the new comedy UP ALL NIGHT could potentially turn things around. A clever comedy that’s hinged on a familiar concept (parents of a newborn must cope with their new baby-filled life) is elevated with the excellent casting of Christina Applegate and Will Arnett. Additionally it has the rich pedigree of former SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE writer Emily Spivey who […]Read On »

On the successful end, there’s THE OFFICE. On the other end, there’s COUPLING. FREE AGENTS is somewhere on this scale, but it starts out with a lot of promise. Not only does it have a great cast, led […]Read On »

AMERICA’S GOT TALENT Season Six is over! Landau Eugene Murphy, Jr. is the official winner of AGT Season Six. With a huge parade of acts performing tonight so much was going on at times I forgot why we were there.

Def Leppard certainly proved that they are still one of the best heavy metal bands of all time. Rock on! Ironically, when the final four acts got the chance to perform with their favorite famous counterparts during the season finale, they […]Read On »

AMERICA’S GOT TALENT’s finals are finished! It’s all over. And now America will chose the winner of AGT Season Six. The last four acts have completed their AGT journey and now all they can do is wait ‘til tomorrow to see the results. Their destiny awaits them, although there is a really good chance that all four acts will win. Not necessarily the coveted AGT award, but an award to a fruitful and rewarding future of doing what they already do so very, very well. Sadly, it looks as though PopLyfe will be counting on just that tomorrow night. Their […]Read On »

In the CW’s new series RINGER, premiering tonight at 9 PM, Sarah Michelle Gellar (of BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER) makes her long-awaited return to TV in a dual role. Gellar plays both the devious, wealthy Siobhan and her twin sister, downtrodden prostitute Bridget, who winds up assuming Siobhan’s identity.

Genre […]Read On »
