Laura Vandervoort as Supergirl Picture
Here’s your first look at Canadian actress Laura Vandervoort in costume (sort of) as Supergirl (thumbnail to your left, a bigger version of the image below). The image comes courtesy of the CW Network, who sent it over to the blokes over at SuperheroHype. (Man, I wish people would send me cool stuff like this!) You can catch blonde Goddess Laura Vandervoort playing a superhot Supergirl on the CW’s aging “Smallville” TV series when it comes back from break. I don’t know when that’ll end, but it’ll be worth waiting. I mean, come on, Laura Vandervoort is frakkin’ hot, guys.
Rose Byrne Tries TV with Damages
20 July 2007
To be honest, I’m not sure what Rose Byrne is doing on TV, because she’s got a thriving movie career going, and showing up as a regular in a TV (and cable TV to boot!) can’t possibly be good for her burgeoning movie career. But anyways, here she is, in the cast of the FX Channel’s lawyer show “Damages”, where she plays Ellen Parsons. If you have cable TV, you’ve probably seen commercials for the show for a while now; it stars Glenn Close as a high-stakes lawyer in New York. (I’m not going to wonder what Glenn Close is doing on a TV series; it’s the “in” thing right now.) Anyways, here’s Rose Byrne at the premiere of “Damages”, looking good as always. And hey, I’m not complaining. Rose Byrne once a week is always nice.
Olivia Wilde Joins New Cast of House Fourth Season
18 July 2007
I love FOX’s “House”, even though I don’t get to see every episode, mostly because I’m terrible with dates (I’m going senile, I’m sure of it), and I can’t always keep in mind when it comes on. Then again, I should probably program my Dish Network’s DVR to automatically record the new episodes, but barring that, I invariably end up seeing “House”, you know, whenever I remember to look for it. Anyways, season 4 of “House” is getting a new injection of blood: four new castmembers, including the gorgeous Olivia Wilde (formerly of the cancelled “The Black Donnellys”) will be joining the cast as new recruits for grumpy doc House’s internship. No idea how long she’ll be on the show, or if it’s a permanent gig. Who are the other three castmembers? Who cares. Olivia House will be on TV again! Yay!
Victoria Beckham is Coming to America
17 July 2007
I’m not as much shock that Victoria Beckham is getting her Reality TV show (because frankly, anyone can get a Reality TV show nowadays; hell, even the Corey Boys are getting their own Reality TV show on A&E, and no one even remembers who they are!), but I am a little shock that Beckham’s show, “Coming to America” ended up at a big network like NBC. Second tier celebrities usually will be happy to get their Reality TV shows on cable TV, but not NETWORK TV. I mean, come on, that’s FREE TV, and in America, free TV is actually more prestigious than pay TV. But anyways, she’s got her own TV show, and she’s coming to America (or so I’ve heard), and here’s your first taste of Posh in L.A. God help us all. Although I do kinda like the fact that Beckham’s trip to the DMV will suck just like the rest of ours.
Isaiah Washington Gets his Bionic Woman On
17 July 2007
Apparently being a homophobe and gay basher isn’t a crime anymore in Hollywood (remember the good ol days when it was?) because Isaiah Washington, late of “Grey’s Anatomy”, has found a new home at NBC with their upcoming remake of “The Bionic Woman” TV show, starring Michelle Ryan. News is that Washington has landed a 5-episode gig, and the network may put him in another TV series after his stint on the sci-fi show is done. Hey, I’m glad Hollywood is finally in the forgiving business again. Then again, all Washington did was call a fellow actor on a show (who just happens to be gay) “faggot”; it’s not like he ran the guy over with his car or anything. You know, like Lindsay Lohan and God knows how many actors who have tried to kill civilians with their cars.
What’s with all the Reality TV Karaoke Shows?
16 July 2007
Seriously, what is the deal with all the karaoke singing shows coming on TV at the exact same time? I think there are three of them right now, each one sounding even worst than the last. There’s the one with Wayne Brady, where contestants has to figure out which lyrics come next to win prizes and junk; there’s the one with that fat guy from N’Sync or Backstreet Boys (well, he’s from one of those boy bands, take your pick, they’re interchangeable); and a third show that I don’t even know the title to, but it’s probably just as ridiculous. Basically, what the hell is up with the karaoke Reality TV shows? It’s bad enough having to listen to your untalented co-worker singing while sloshed on margaritas, now you gotta sit there and listen to them do it on national TV? Good grief, this country’s going to hell.
Laura Vandervoort is Supergirl
13 July 2007
“Smallville” TV fans are finally rejoicing after many seasons of mediocrity, because Canadian blonde hottie Laura Vandervoort has just been named the latest Kryptonian to come to our fair planet Earth. The CW has announced that Vandervoort, who hails from Toronto, Canada, has been cast as Supergirl, Clark Kent’s cousin, who has all of his powers, but none of his farm boy mentality. At least, in the comics. Which means if the “Smallville” show runners follow the comic book character, Laura Vandervoort will be parading around in that skimpy Supergirl outfit (short, short skirt and tight shirt) kicking villainous ass. Maybe she can finally deal with Lex Luthor. It’s pretty annoying how Clark just lets that dipshit do whatever he wants. I mean, come ON, Clark!
KaDee Strickland Joins Grey’s Anatomy Spin-off Private Practice
12 July 2007
Normally I’m not very fond of women who uses crazy spellings for their generic name, but in the case of KaDee Strickland, I’m making an exception. What can I say, I like this Southern gal, and if she wants to get all screwy with a simple name like “Katie”, then that’s alright with me. You can soon catch more of this Georgia peach on the TV show “Private Practice”, the spin-off show to the ginormously popular doc show “Grey’s Anatomy”. The spin-off follows one of the doctors on the other show to another hospital and stuff happens. The Hollywood Reporter says KaDee will play Charlotte, a doctor and hospital administrator on “Private Practice”.
America to Al Gore: What, Me, Worry? Live Earth Tanks.
9 July 2007
Apparently Americans have heard everything Al Gore has to say about global warming, and their response is a big fat: “Who gives a crap?” That is, if you can go by the ratings for Al Gore’s three-hour concert special from Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., which pulled in paltry numbers for NBC during its Sunday night run, according to the Hollywood Reporter. In fact, NBC would have gotten equal or better ratings had they just ran a rerun of, well, basically anything in the time slot. Which comes as a big surprise to just about anyone, considering the concert’s line-up of heavy hitters, including Kelly Clarkson, Kaney West, Alicia Keys, Bon Jovi, Sheryl Crow, and The Smashing Pumpkins, just to name a few.
The Sex and the City Movie is a Go
9 July 2007
So the ladies of “Sex and the City” have finally decided that a nice big paycheck is worth putting up with one another (apparently they hate each other — or to be more precise, they all hate Kim Cattrall and vice versa) and make a movie. Isn’t that sweet? Personally, I could do without having to see Sarah Jessica Parker’s horse face on a giant movie screen, or Kim Cattrall’s prune, wrinkled skin in close-up. Then again, a major movie would provide Kristin Davis fans the chance to see Kristin naked. Or close to naked. (What’s the point of a “Sex and the City” movie if no one gets naked? None!) And let’s face it, kids, the only reason to even consider renting a “Sex and the City” movie when it hits DVD is the promise of Kristin Davis skin. It sure as hell ain’t for Kim Cattrall or Sarah Jessica Parker or the redhead whose name no one knows.
Watch Burn Notice on USA Network Tonight
28 June 2007
Don’t forget to watch “Burn Notice’s” premiere on the USA Network tonight for those of you who get the channel. It stars three of my favorite actors: Jeffrey Donovan, who was killer in “Touching Evil”; Gabrielle Anwar, who I have had a crush on since forever; and Bruce Campbell, the God among fanboys. The show is about a spy who is “burned” by his agency, and now he’s trapped in Miami with his overbearing mother, and trying to make ends meat. It looks like a really good show to jump on board if you like action and quirky characters. Plus, it has Bruce Friggin’ Campbell. I mean, how can you go wrong with that?
Sophia Myles Joins CBS’ Vampire Show Moonlight
27 June 2007
I’ve been infatuated with the lovely British lass Sophia Myles ever since “Tristan and Isolde”. She’s smoldering hot. Via this site, news is that Sophia has joined the cast of CBS’s upcoming vampire series “Moonlight”, about a vampire private investigator. Myles will play the vampire’s love interest, an internet investigative reporter named Beth. I had no idea such things even exist. Internet investigative reporter, I mean, not the whole vampire stuff. I’m pretty sure vampires actually exist. Although the fact that CBS is doing a vampire show is kind of curious in itself. What happened, CBS, “CSI: Serbia” didn’t pan out? Well don’t fret, there’s always “CSI: My Asshole” to consider.
Chyler Leigh Joins ABC Hit Grey’s Anatomy
26 June 2007
Woohoo! Chyler Leigh is finally going to be on a TV show that people will ACTUALLY see! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, this girl is just too bloody gorgeous to not be more famous than she currently is. Of course, being on failed shows doesn’t help, but hopefully joining the fourth season of ABC’s mega hit “Grey’s Anatomy” is going to change Chyler’s current career streak. And yes, that is the full extent of my fame barometer (”hot” equals “success”). On the show, she’ll be playing a character named Lexi, who is Meredith Grey’s half-sister.
Chris Benoit, Wife, and Son Found Murdered in Home
26 June 2007
Bad news today for World Wrestling Entertainment fans, but most of all for the WWE, as authorities in Fayette County, Georgia has announced that WWE superstar wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife Nancy, and his son were found dead in their home in Atlanta. This is not a good time for the WWE to have to burden such a brutal crime, coming in the aftermath of former WWE wrestler “Sensational” Sherri Martel’s death and the faux “assassination” of WWE head honcho Vince McMahon, which of course is nothing but a fictional storyline, the kind that the WWE invents every other week to keep fans entertained. And now this? Yikes.
Nobody Wants to Pay Paris for an Interview — Except CNN?
23 June 2007
Paris Hilton is due to be released from the slammer this upcoming Tuesday, after serving 23 days of her original 45-day sentence, thanks to “good behavior”. Basically, because she didn’t shank anyone, apparently, is enough to warrant “good behavior” in Los Angeles. (Is it any wonder O.J. was found not guilty of slaughtering two people? It’s L.A., baby, don’t try to make sense of it.) So this means the networks are lining up to interview Paris, right? Well, not really. After NBC got called out on trying to pay Paris $1 million for a sit-down interview, they have since gone into hiding, claiming the offer was never out there, and now ABC has gotten caught trying to do the same.
Danay Garcia Joins Prison Break
22 June 2007
Who is Danay Garcia? Um, I don’t know, but she’s going to be joining the cast of Fox’s “Prison Break” next year for the show’s third season, which finds Michael Scofield in a Panamanian prison and must, we presume, “break” out. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Danay Garcia (pictures below) will play play Sofia, who is described as “a beautiful Latin woman living in Panama whose boyfriend Whistler (Chris Vance) is incarcerated with Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller).” Danay joins Jodi Lyn O’Keefe as new cast members on “Prison Break”.
Gina Holden as Dale Arden in Flash Gordon
20 June 2007
If you weren’t looking forward to the Sci Fi Channel’s version of “Flash Gordon”, then these pictures of Gina Holden as intrepid reporter turned rebel space adventurer Dale Arden might just do it. Now I’m not saying you should watch “Flash Gordon” when it comes on in August because Gina Holden is hot, but I am saying you should tune into “Flash Gordon” when it comes on in August because Gina Holden is awesomely hot. So the girls get a buff Eric Johnson and we get Gina Holden. Sounds like a fair split to me!
Jodi Lyn O’Keefe Joins the Third Season of Prison Break
20 June 2007
I don’t know what I’m more happy about, that Jodi Lyn O’Keefe is joining a hit TV show and I’ll be able to drool over her weekly from now on when “Prison Break” comes back for its third season, or that her character’s name on the show will be “Betty Crocker”. I mean, come on! Better Friggin Crocker! According to IGN, Miz Crocker will be “an operative for The Company, which is a shadow government organization” that initially framed Michael Scofield’s brother for the murder of the Vice President’s brother, and set off the show’s main premise.
Kyra Sedgwick’s The Closer Breaks Records
19 June 2007
People love Kyra Sedgwick, and I can see why. She’s an incredibly affable doll, and it comes through in her TV show “The Closer”, which broke all kinds of cable record when it premiered for its third season. According to Variety, “The Closer” scored 8.8 million viewers, a record for Monday night at 9 on ad-supported cable. The show stars Sedgwick as a tough Southern cop who comes to L.A. to solve high-profile crimes using a combination of toughness, Southern charm, and a curiously obsessive love for and fear of sweets. You’ve got to see this show, it’s killer.
Dirty Tara Summers Joins Boston Legal
16 June 2007
The second name to surface as joining David E. Kelley’s law show “Boston Legal”, after John Larroquette, is former “Dirt” co-star Tara Summers, who will play “a hot young associate”. Gee, I hope that’s not all the character description they came up for her. “Okay, you, you’re the hot young associate. Now — ACT!” But I digress. Tara’s addition to the cast comes after Kelley and company fired four other members of the cast to make room, including Julie Bowen. The bastards. Tara’s last gig was on the Courteney Cox show “Dirt”. Pictures of Tara Summers below.
