Next on ‘Burn Notice’: Hot Spot
January 29, 2009 by Chandra
On the next episode of Burn Notice, tonight’s “Hot Spot,” Michael, Fiona, and Sam pretend to be a gang of ruthless car thieves.
The undercover work is for their latest case targeting a thug who has been threatening a local high school football star. When they’re not busy with that, Michael and Fiona also manage to locate the person responsible for trying to murder Michael by setting up the bomb that torched his loft.
Michael Irving guest stars as Coach Sean Martin on this one. And, unless my eyes are deceiving me, that’s former Blade: The Series star Kirk Jones, …read more

Preview: Dominic Monaghan in ‘Chuck Versus the Third Dimension’
January 20, 2009 by Chandra
If you haven’t heard yet, Lost alum Dominic Monaghan has an upcoming guest-star gig on the very special February 2 episode of Chuck called “Chuck Versus the Third Dimension.”
The episode’s not just a big deal because of Monaghan, of course, but also because (1) it’s the first new Chuck of 2009 and (2) it will supposedly be broadcast in exciting 3-D. I say supposedly because I’ve tried watching 3-D TV and movies before, and neither ever did a thing for me. Maybe this time will be the charm.
Monaghan plays — surprise … not! — a rock star, this …read more
Chevy! Bakula! Three Is the Magic Number for ‘Chuck’
January 16, 2009 by Chandra
Yeah, I know — I only mentioned two names in the title. However, the magical number three refers to the number of Chuck episodes that upcoming top-notch guest stars Chevy Chase and Scott Bakula will each be appearing in, according to current reports.
Quantum Leap and Enterprise star Bakula has come onboard to play Chuck and Ellie’s oft-mentioned yet never-before-seen daddy. Considering his huge background and following in the science-fiction television genre, I’m sure fans everywhere are feeling all kinds of thrilled about his casting.
Says series creator Josh Schwartz to E! Online: “They [the Bartowski kids and their estranged …read more
Q&A Fun with ‘Burn Notice’s Bruce Campbell
Thanks to his unforgettable work in enduring cult movies like Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead and Army of Darkness, Burn Notice star Bruce Campbell was mega popular long before the USA Network series took off and became the huge hit it is now.
Ever gracious and entertaining, the star of film and television recently answered questions to help spread the word about the return of Burn Notice next Thursday, January 22, at 10pm EST. The first of seven remaining episodes out of the midseason stable is the medical-scam caper “Do No Harm.”

January 10, 2009 by Chandra
The CW has just released a new promo clip for Reaper, and all I have to say is, “It’s about %$#&in’ time!”
Clocking in at a measly 21 seconds, the video still manages to give fans a taste of what’s coming up — boozing, boxing, and frying-pan fights, from the look of it — as well as confirm the previously publicized Tuesday, March 17 second-season premiere date.
Episodes will air at 9pm EST, and there are a total of thirteen ordered. Now, take a look at the super-short “Beatbox” promo below and get excited for the demon-hunting days ahead.

‘Psych’ Premiere: Shawn and Gus Get Fishy
Another midseason, another fun premiere from USA Network and its laid-back crime dramedy Psych. This time around, on “Six Feet Under the Sea,” the episode’s unique slant is Shawn and Gus’ investigation of the murder of a seal. Yep, you read that right — a seal, like the kind you find in the sea.
This is no ordinary seal, however. It’s famous Shabby the Sea Lion, and when Gus takes Shawn along to the mammal’s funeral, the fake psychic senses something is very, well, fishy.
Welcome Back, Mr. Monk … And Your Other Brother
January 9, 2009 by Chandra
I hope everybody else is as psyched as I am for the return of Tony Shalhoub and his magnificent crime dramedy Monk.
The place to be at 9pm EST tonight is USA Network, which will air the seventh-midseason premiere of the show, a fun episode called “Mr. Monk and the Other Brother.” And, you betcha — it appears Adrian Monk does indeed have another sibling besides John Turturro’s recovered agoraphobic Ambrose, a half brother named Jack Jr. played by Joy Ride etcetera star Steve Zahn.
The action gets rolling at the very beginning of the episode, when poor Monk, busy whipping …read more
Say Goodbye to ‘Lipstick Jungle’ Tonight
January 9, 2009 by Chandra
Unless something unexpected happens in coming weeks, it looks like tonight’s episode of the NBC dramedy Lipstick Jungle will be the series’ last.
Called “Chapter Twenty: La Vie En Pose,” the main gimmick, if you will, of the installment is Nico’s appearance on the NBC morning program the Today Show, right alongside real later-hour hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford, who play themselves. The visit results from the magazine editor’s attempt to polish her professional image, but it ends up impacting her personal life negatively.
Elsehwere, Wendy gets major attitude from her teenage daughter Maddie while her husband Shane is …read more
‘Rescue Me’ Crew Takes on Harlem
December 30, 2008 by Chandra
I would love to be around on set when the naughty Rescue Me cast is at work, and last week, two days before Christmas, that’s just what some photographers got to do near 145th Street in New York City’s Harlem.
The lucky bystanders managed to catch star Denis Leary and his colleagues John Scurti (Kenny Shea) and Mike Lombardi (Mike Silletti) as they filmed a few really authentic-looking scenes. One photo features Leary’s Tommy Gavin, in full firefighter gear, leaning out of a building’s open window while smoke surrounds him. We’ll learn what fire they put out — and …read more
