Pilot News: Latest ABC Castings Include Angel Alum, David Morse | Today's News: Our Take | 2/27/2009
I have said it before, I say it again: The Buffyverse is en fuego these days.

Angel's Amy Acker, who currently is sporting some nassssty scars on Joss Whedon's Dollhouse, has joined ABC's murder-mystery pilot Happy Town, playing the wife of Geoff Stults' top cop.

Elsewhere on the Alphabet network, both Michael Nouri and David Morse have taken residence in Empire State, playing ... read more 12 Comments
Angel Vet Moves into Whedon's Dollhouse! | Today's News: Our Take | 4/17/2008
The mystery as to which Buffyverse grad Joss Whedon was considering for Dollhouse has been solved! Early this morning, Whedon announced on his blog that Angel vet Amy Acker is joining the show's cast in the recurring role of Dr. Claire Saunders, the smart yet sad looker-after of the dolls who may or may not have a crush on nerdy programmer Topher (Fran Kranz). Love. It.Whedon also confirmed that Miracle Laurie has been tapped to play plus-sized doll November, whose comforting and radiant presence tends to get her fewer of the criminal gigs and more of the personal ones.No. Clue. Who. She. Is.

We're Sold! Meet Mad Men's Plucky Pete Campbell | Today's News: Our Take | 8/16/2007
He's a go-getter, a whippersnapper, an up-and-coming advertising exec whose greatest liability may be his ambition. That, or his penchant for illicitly dipping more than his toe into the steno pool. He's Pete Campbell, and he's played winningly on AMC's super-sexy Mad Men (Thursdays at 10 pm/ET) by Vincent Kartheiser. TVGuide.com invited the Angel alum to emerge from the series' smoke-filled set and share his take on his Mad Ave. alter ego. TVGuide.com: I'm a huge fan of Mad Men, so I've got to hit you with a burning question, since you're the first cast member I have Q&A'd. The omnipresent cigarettes — what percentage of the cast are smokers who had to pick up the habit again, and how many of you hate having to light up for the scenes? read more
A repeat from early in the season,... | Today's News: Our Take | 12/29/2005
A repeat from early in the season, but since I hadn't seen it, it was new to me — and that's almost as good as it not being a rerun. Plus, Amy Acker was on, playing a sweet mother to a son who's suffering from posttraumatic stress. Her cute little accent reminded me of when she first showed up on Angel as a goodie-goodie before transforming into the evildoer she later became and the troublemaker she is now portraying on Alias. It was nice to see her flip back to good Amy. Really shows off her range! Plus, she totally charmed me when she told Sam to tell his friend "this whole Jerry Maguire thing isn't going to work on me." Cute pop-culture reference. But the kid that was causing everyone to drown, not so cute... in fact he was downright creepy. That scene where his head popped out of the water was just icky. Plus, now I'm afraid to turn on the water in my sink because god only knows what is going to come out. This is why I really shouldn't w read more
What's this talk I hear about ... | Matt Roush | 12/12/2005
Question: What's this talk I hear about an Alias spin-off starring the current bad guys? Do you have any intel. on this? Would Amy Acker be involved? My greatest wish would be a spin-off starring Amy Acker and David Anders, because I don't think you can get any better than Peyton and Sark working closely together to do evil. That would be hot.
Answer: Spacegirl? Really? Anyway, this possibility of a bad-guy spin-off (also featuring Sloane, naturally) was discussed in the Dec. 12 issue of TV Guide (on stands now), but it's awfully preliminary and, I agree, awfully tempting — though I would be honestly surprised if it gets much beyond the talking stage. ABC is flying high these days, and spinning off a show past its prime seems counterintuitive. But yes, it would be hot. And I would watch ... read more
