Whether or not you enjoy seeing her, Kim Kardashian is dead set on transitioning from reality television to the more appreciated scripted variety, with her next big role lined up to be on Lifetime’s Drop Dead Diva. The series, which is entering its fourth season, follows a model that died and was reborn in the body of a plus-sized attorney. Now she’s trapped in a body she doesn’t want and has to learn to overcome her shallow nature and also win legal cases.
As we previously reported, True Blood creator Alan Ball has been developing a series called Banshee that, at the time, was being pitched to HBO and Cinemax. Now Cinemax has officially picked up the series for a ten-episode first season order. To Alan Ball fans everywhere: now is the time to jump around hooting and hollering for joy. There wasn’t any doubt Ball’s series would be picked up given his success with True Blood, but it’s still fun to get excited about these kinds of announcements.

You might have thought cool, collectible film posters were only for science fiction and comic book movies. Think again! What to Expect When You’re Expecting is really busting a move with five fabulous looks at their female stars. A few of them are sporting baby bumps, except that Twilight actress Anna Kendrick’s seems uber-small and I don’t really detect one at all for J-Lo.

For its upcoming fifth season, True Blood sought out relatively unknown British actor, Giles Matthey, to play a mysterious person of interest in Jessica’s (Deborah Ann Woll) already complicated life. When I say “relatively unknown,” that’s an understatement. Matthey’s only film credit, according to his IMDB page, is a small part in a recent episode of The Good Wife. But don’t think his small resume means he’s not good for the part, he’s just an untapped (and attractive) talent!

I’ve always viewed a show’s final season as the perfect opportunity to start killing off main characters and I believe every show should off at least one person, no matter how beloved they are. Desperate Housewives apparently shares my love of killing characters since it’s been announced someone will be getting the axe long before the series gets to its final episode. The news has me charged with excitement. My favorite part about killing characters off is guessing who it’s going to be.
When you are as well known a star as Katherine Heigl, and you tease about returning to as beloved a show as Grey’s Anatomy, there is going to be talk, excitement and plenty of questions. Before speculation gets entirely out of hand, we have a clarification directly from the horse’s mouth. And what a lovely horse she’d be, too, not that I’d really compare her to a beast.
Is Doctor Izzie really making her come back? Well, no, not exactly.

You may be experiencing Morena Baccarin withdrawal. The symptoms are shaking and nausea followed by a deep sadness. You can’t help it really. After all, the otherworldly series, V, Season 2, ended back in October and the very critically acclaimed Homeland, which features Baccarin as Jessica Brody, finished up it’s inaugural season in December. Never fear, more Baccarin here! She’ll soon be hanging around the CBS set of The Good Wife. Hey, she’s a pretty good wife on Homeland already.
Evangeline Lilly is a real trooper. She’s also been flexing more than just creative muscle in her past few projects. From Real Steel to The Hobbit, Ms. Lilly is shaping up to offer the best of both worlds. She’s a spot on dramatic actress who can play a warrior any day of the week. A very warm new interview with the actress reveals just this, and also offers more glimpses of her sense of humor.
What in the world is a Gossip Girl doing with actor Tom Selleck? She’s acting, of course. We’re talking about the casting surprise for fans of actress Margaret Colin. Colin is Eleanor Waldorf-Rose, mommy dearest to Leighton Meester’s Blair, on the hit CW series, but she’s about to become a Blue Blood.

COMPLIANCE – The Controversial Q&A that Everyone’s Heard About, But Until Now, Has Gone Unseen (from the film’s World Premiere @ Sundance Film Festival)
The 2012 Sundance Film Festival was likely to stir up heated debate, especially with documentary films like Chasing Ice that focus on global warming or others like WE’RE NOT BROKE, an exposé on the financial crisis; two subjects certain to cause a rift in this election-cycle, hypersensitive political climate. Yet, it was Craig Zobel’s COMPLIANCE – starring Ann Dowd, Dreama Walker, and Pat Healy – a narrative feature that could be considered a case-study on recognizing right from wrong, following orders or acting on your gut, that caused the first and loudest ruckus of the festival (And no, I cannot “describe the ruckus”).

Ever since Monday, January 23rd, NBC has been streaming the pilot episode for it’s new musical series, Smash. The early release is a model for success that other networks have been using for some time, with NBC joining the fray. Unlike other networks, NBC really needs a win, so the hope is by releasing the pilot early it will drum up excitement for the series and potentially draw in even more viewers. I have to say it was a smart idea. Having watched the pilot I cannot wait to go around to all my friends and family and tell them watch Smash.
