TV Review: Dark Blue Pilot

Despite the title, and the somewhat familiar premise, TNT’s new cop show Dark Blue is not, in fact, a TV version of the Kurt Russell cop movie of the same name from 2002. The show is yet another product of uber producer Jerry Bruckheimer (the CSI franchise), and stars Dylan McDermott (“The Messengers”)...

Piper Perabo to Headline USA Network’s Covert Affairs

Oh look, the USA Network has finally found its leading lady for its new spy show Covert Affairs, and it’s none other than movie star Piper Perabo. I’ve been covering the show since it was announced, because I think it could be a winner. Kind of like Jennifer Garner in Alias, except less...

Moonlight the Movie? Producer Says it’s Possible.

I never got into CBS’ Moonlight, their sorta supernatural cop show where the good guy (played by Alex O’Loughlin) was a vampire who solved cases involving vampires and the like. The gorgeous Sophia Myles played a Lois Lane type who starts to figure out the P.I. might be more than he’s...

Jeri Ryan Gets Some of TNT’s Leverage

If you haven’t been watching TNT’s new caper show Leverage, you should definitely give it a shot. Granted, it’s not going to win a lot of awards, but it’s got a fun, cool vibe about it that makes it worth a spot in my DVR’s queue. I like it for the same reason I like the...

How long have I been waiting to see Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg return to the land of World War II mini-series aka “The Pacific”? Forever, it seems. The duo already gave us the genre-defining “Band of Brothers”, set entirely in the European theater of WWII, and now they’ve...

Kyle MacLachlan to Return to Twin Peaks? Only if Audrey Horne Tags Along

You can never tell with actors. Sometimes they’ll say things just to say something, and other times they mean it. They are a curious breed, oftentimes hard to decipher, prone to shooting off at the lip. For example, take a look at these quotes from Kyle MacLachlan, who has been reported as saying...

BSG’s Katee Sackhoff Joins 24 Season 8

So does this mean the “Daredevil” reboot isn’t happening? Whatever the case, it looks like Battlestar Galactica alum Katee Sackhoff won’t be among the canceled show’s unemployed for long, as she’s just landed a cushy gig on Season 8 of FOX’s 24, which has already...

USA Network Readies Another Spy Show, Covert Affairs

I like the USA Network, mostly because they’re home to the fantastic Burn Notice, starring Jeffrey Donovan as an ex-spy paying the bills by working odd jobs using his International spy skills on common hoodlums, crooks, and other evildoers with the help of his former IRA girlfriend and ex-CIA buddy...

Three Clips from the CW’s Vampire Diaries

It’s not easy being a good, decent vampire. Just ask Stefan. He kinda likes this pretty brunette, but there’s that whole wanting to bite her in the neck and drink her blood thing. Then his brother shows up wanting to cause mischief, and it all goes downhill from there. Three video clips from...

Human Target Pilot Episode Preview Clip

A new but longer clip from Mark Valley’s new FOX show Human Target, where Valley plays a freelancer who hires out to protect people from assassins. The show is based on a comic book, but aside from the premise, it doesn’t look all that comic booky (i.e. no tights, no supervillains). The three-minute...

Family Guy Spin-off The Cleveland Show Clips

When they announced they were spinning off Cleveland Brown of The Family Guy, I wasn’t so sure. Why Cleveland, of all the juicy characters on the show? (As Stewie would say, “What the hell? He’s getting his own show?”) Well, they done spun him off, and the new show will find Cleveland...

Prison Break: The Final Break DVD Cover Art, Plot, Specs

I’ll admit, as much as I loved the first season of Prison Break, and liked the second year enough to stick around for the third year, the fourth year was just … well, I never bothered to watch a full episode. I did catch half of the pilot for it, but it just didn’t interest me to watch...
