21 Jump Street
Young L.A. cops go undercover in high schools in this teen-oriented police drama, which helped jump-start the new Fox network in 1987. It was the network's most-watched show that first year, and Booker became an insurance investigator who spun off to his own short-lived series. The title, incidentally, is the address of the unit's station house, a converted chapel.
  • Jonah Hill Jumps to 21 Jump Street — Who's Next? | Movie News | 5/15/2008
    I have to be honest I never watched 21 Jump Street Foxs cops-undercover-as-kids show but I know its legacy holds sway with many of my nostalgia-afflicted peers I think it was more of a ladies thing actually what with all the Depp and Grieco mucking around So whats with this news I hear that its Jonah Hill Superbad Forgetting Sarah Marshall Andys dads boyfriend who will be developing a big-screen adaptation of the popular series as a potential starring vehicle Is he the Depp or the Grieco Ah thats right there was the Peter DeLuise the funny one I could see thatSo assuming for now that Hill will be the funny one who do you think should fill Johnny Depp Richard Grieco Holly Robinson and Dustin Nguyens shoes My thoughts some combination of Zoe Saldana Emile Hirsch Gossip Girls Jessica Szohr Channing Tatum Elijah Kelley Hairspray and Chad Michael Murray would be one hot little posse of narcs no Mickey OConnor read more be the first to leave a comment
  • Post Mortem: The WB and UPN | Stephen Battaglio | 10/5/2007
    It seems like a more innocent time, when a haircut could rock an entire network. But that's what happened when Felicity star Keri Russell's trademark curly locks were shorn during a summer hiatus in 1999. The early WB fave was never the same after that follicle debacle. Susanne Daniels, who was the creative executive behind many of the network's early successes, and Variety deputy editor Cynthia Littleton have recounted the wild ride of the short-lived six network era in Season Finale: The Unexpected Rise and Fall of the WB and UPN (Harper Books). When reading the story, it's hard to believe two over-the-air broadcast networks were launched only a dozen years before we made a habit out of watching TV on our computers. Both UPN and the WB (which merged to become the CW last year) were born out of their studio-owners' fear that once the government allowed the established networks to produce their own series, they would be shut out of prime time. That never happened. But the youth-orie... read more
  • Sons Daughters It was another... | Today's News: Our Take | 3/22/2006
    Sons & DaughtersIt was another double-shot Tuesday night for Cameron and his crazy family. The first episode reminded me never to borrow money from my siblings. On one hand, when it comes to family, there's no financial interest to pay. But it's the "emotional interest" that kills you. Borrowing $1,500 from Sharon meant Cameron had to sit through Don's pathetic play and work concessions during intermission. If you've never witnessed a painful performance by a friend (let alone a brother-in-law), trust me, you'd rather be in debt up to your eyeballs. Sharon (played by Alison Quinn), by the way, is seriously stealing this show. Not only is she the most hilarious deadpan character ever, I looked up her bi read more
  • Writer Damian Kindler and director... | Today's News: Our Take | 9/12/2005
    Writer Damian Kindler and director Peter DeLuise (Dom's scion, of 21 Jump Street fame) indulged their obvious fondness for Star Trek's "Amok Time" episode for this tale that landed Mitchell in the clutches of a Jaffa warrior sect that follows the Ori. Forced to bolt through the Stargate in a hurry, SG-1 had to leave the wounded Cameron behind. On the positive side, Mitchell's foes nursed him back to health. The bad news was they did this just so he could be trained to fight in a ritual clash to the death. Mitchell's quandary recalled that scene in Stanley Kubrick's Paths of Glory when Private Arnoud received a skull fracture and was bandaged up just so he could be shot. (By the way, Arnoud and his two fellow comrades "died wonderfully," according to the French general who executed them to save his own butt, but I digress.) No, Kindler and DeLuise aren't Kubrick, but who is? Obviously Mitchell had to squirm out of this jam alive an read more
  • Can you tell me who played ... | Today's News: Our Take | 8/25/2005

    Question: Can you tell me who played Hunter on the old TV series by that name? Thank you.


    Answer: That was former All-Pro defensive end Fred Dryer, who spent three years with the New York Giants and 10 with the L.A. Rams before grabbing a very big gun and hitting the streets as tough-guy detective Rick Hunter on the NBC series. From the TV house of Stephen J. Cannell (The A-Team, The Rockford Files, 21 Jump Street, Wiseguy), the show ran from September 1984 to August 1991 and initially focused on Hunter, a tough, take-no-prisoners, obey-no-superiors kind of cop and his equally cantankerous, red-tape-hating partner, Dee Dee McCall (Stepfanie Kramer). As the series progressed, however, Hunter ran through a few lady partners, which some said was a result of strife behin read more
