I kinda love this. When Lesley Ann Warren returns to Desperate Housewives for the first time in six years as Susan's spacey mom, Sophie, she'll be bringing along her sister, Claire, played by ...

Teri Hatcher is no stranger to the Superman mythos.
The 45-year-old actress' first leading role was the dynamic Daily Planet reporter Lois Lane on ABC's Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, which ran from 1993 to 1997.

Before her, the role of Lois Lane had been portrayed by a plethora of women, Phyllis Coates took the part in the first live-action series. Perhaps the most well-known is Margot Kidder, who starred opposite Christopher Reeve in the films from 1978 to 1987.
Even her on-screen ...

Hi there, it's Erin Fox here... (insert Troy McClure voice)... You may know me from such blogs as, Battlestar Galactica, American Idol and Saturday Night Live. I thought I'd try out a brand new show for a change and maybe less people will rip on me for whatever is irking them that day. I know I'm deluding myself, but just let me hold on to the dream. So, I know tonight's episode is the third one of the season, but I wanted to post a recap of the pilot for those who may have some catching up to do. I'll be writing up the second and third episodes tomorrow, and much more succinctly than the first one outta the gate. The first one is all about getting you situated with Mary and her crazy sidekicks and cohorts. Let's get started.Meet Mary Shannon (Mary McCormack): She's tough, smart, funny, sexy and doesn't f--k around. She also packs some serious heat as a U.S. Marshal for the WITSEC program, or Witness Protection for all us non-Marshal speaking folk. She has a sarcastic partner named ...

Desperate HousewivesOf course ABC chose to show a repeat tonight — the cast was up for best ensemble in a comedy series at the SAG Awards, airing at the same time. So glad they won for the second year in a row, and I was quite happy about Felicity Huffman continuing her winning streak: first an Emmy, then a Golden Globe (for Transamerica) and now a SAG award. She's this year's Jamie Foxx (at least Felicity doesn't sing the same Ray Charles song at every single awards show). Hopefully, she'll be announced as an Oscar nominee this Tuesday morning. Tonight's repeat reminded me of what a "whack job" (the term that Layla woman used) George was. He's a character I simply do not miss. I do, however, enjoy Lesley Ann Warren and Bob Newhart, so I hope they bring them back. And it made sense for us to see Gabrielle release that red balloo
