Runaway: Review

A futuristic "good guy versus bad guy" picture that is stylistically born out of the pages of a comic book. Sgt. Jack Ramsey (Tom Selleck) is a charming, rugged policeman who is raising a young son with the help of a robot maid, while risking his life as a specialist in terminating "runaways"--robots that short-circuit and become killers. A sudden rash of runaways causes a panic, and Ramsey is placed in charge of the investigation with a new partner, Karen Thompson (Cynthia ... read more

24 Alum Eyes a New Runaway Hit | Today's News: Our Take | 8/25/2006
Leslie Hope and Elisha Cuthbert were two of the first actors I interviewed for TVGuide.com, back in 2002, during the debut season of a little-show-that-could called 24. Coincidentally, I was slated to talk with each of the "Bauer women" again this week, but one of them "politely passed" at the last minute. The actress I now like a bit more is Ms. Hope, who called me from the set of Runaway, a CW drama debuting Sept. 25, and concerning a family that assumes a new id read more
First off, can I have your ... | Today's News: Our Take | 8/2/2006

Question: First off, can I have your baby? Secondly, I see that Donnie Wahlberg is starring in the CW’s new show Runaway. Does this mean he won’t be back for Saw 3?

Answer: Are you insane, Dementia? No, you can't have my baby. I'll answer your second question, though. The former New Kid recently hinted to my colleague Damian Holbrook that his big-screen character's fate was as shady as the horror franchise's creepy-ass clown puppet. “I never thought I would do a horror movie, but I am glad I did [Saw 2]. But I can't comment on [the sequel]…. I couldn’t do that. So you can read into that however you want." Yeah, he's so coming back.

I know it's still summer, but ... | Matt Roush | 7/28/2006
Question: I know it's still summer, but have the networks announced tentative dates for their season premieres? Answer: As of now, the only network not to announce premiere dates is CBS, which will likely launch most of its new and returning shows the weeks of Sept. 17 and 24. Here's how the others shape up: The season kicks off early on Fox, with Prison Break and Vanished on Aug. 21; then the limited reality series Duets on Aug. 29; Justice and Bones on Aug. 30; House and Standoff on Sept. 5; the comedies 'Til Death and Happy Hour on Sept 7; Nanny 911 on Sept. 8; Cops and America's Most Wanted on Sept. 9; Fox's animated comedy lineup plus The War at Home on Sept. 10; and MADtv Sept. 16. (The O.C. won't return until after postseason baseball on Nov. 2.) On ABC, 20/20 officially kicks off Sept. 8; Dancing with the Stars returns Sept. 12 and 13; Wife Swap premieres Sept. 18; Grey's Anatomy and Six Degrees on Sept. 21; Ugly Betty and Men in Trees on Sept. 22; Extreme Makeover: Home read more
I'm curious. From what you ... | Today's News: Our Take | 6/7/2006

Question: I'm curious. From what you have seen so far of the shows being introduced in the upcoming fall season, which ones are worth watching?

Answer: From the stuff I've seen so far, Fox's 24-esque kidnapping thriller Vanished and NBC's Tina Fey SNL-esque comedy are two early standouts. I also got a kick out of Fox's The Wedding Album, but that was mostly because of the chemistry between recently fired lead Bruno Campos and costar Tara Summers. On the flip side, all of Fox's comedies — with the exception of Brad Garrett's 'Til Death, which has potential — are major stinkers. I also wasn't crazy about CW's Runaway, and I'm not saying that because it took Everwood's place on the fall schedule. Oh, who am I kidding — sure I am.
