Exclusive: October Road Cutie Lands on Mars | Today's News: Our Take | 7/16/2008
The tinkering over at ABC's port of the Brit hit Life on Mars continues.Recently, it was announced that The Sopranos' Michael Imperioli was coming on board as a trustworthy colleague of Jason O'Mara's transplanted-in-time lawman. Now, I have learned exclusively, the trio of exec producers (Josh Applebaum, Andre Nemec and Scott Rosenberg) who claimed the Life on Mars reins from David E. Kelley — and each of whom hail from October Road — have tapped a cast member of that ABC serial to join their new venture. Jonathan Murphy, aka OR's Ronnie, will play Detective Chris Skelton, a jittery young arrival to the department. (The role was filled by Marshall Lancaster on the BBC original.)Thus far, the female lead for ABC's Life on Mars has yet to be cast. — Matt MitovichRelated:• October Road Bosses to Wrap Up "Epic Love" Story read more
October Road Bosses to Wrap Up "Epic Love" Story | Today's News: Our Take | 7/15/2008
When October Road reached its end last spring, fans weren't the only ones who had a hard time letting go. Co-creator Scott Rosenberg was determined to conclude the series the right way. "We had a small audience, but they genuinely fell in love with these characters, and I feel we owe it not only to them, but also to the cast [to tie up loose ends]," Rosenberg tells TV Guide. So he and co-creators Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec wrote a 15-minute finale called "Don't Look Back: An Epilogue for an Epic Love." The story will start at the wedding of Hannah (Laura Prepon) and Big Cat (Warren Christie), and then flash forward seven years, where fans will receive answers to most of their remaining questions. The plan is to include the epilogue on the second-season DVD and possibly online. After two seasons on the Road, even the cast wants closure. "I don't know who Sam's father is, so I am just as excited to find out as the fans are," says Bryan Greenberg (Nick). And although the... read more
Eli Renewed! October Road Axed! Moonlight Dead? | Ausiello Report | 5/12/2008
Renewals and cancellations are flying fast and furious on this, the first official day of "upfront" week. Here's the latest:• Eli Stone has been renewed for a second season. (Woo-hoo!)• October Road has been canceled. (Boo-hoo!) Ditto Women's Murder Club. • CBS is expected to bring The Unit back, and may slot it on Fridays at 9 pm. What does that mean for Moonlight? Good question.• Also at CBS, How I Met Your Mother is a shoo-in to return for a fourth season, although Old Christine remains a question mark. ABC, however, is almost certain to scoop it up should Les Moonves pass. More updates to come. Keep checking back. And be sure to bookmark our Fall TV Grid, which clearly displays what is on when, and against what.

Ask Ausiello | 5/7/2008
Q: What's the scoop on October Road? Will it be back next season? A: Nothing official from ABC, but all indications are the show is toast. And I would like to think I was at least partially responsible. Oh, who am I kidding ? it was all me. read more
The Joy of Sets: Cloverfield's TV Secrets Declassified | DVD News and Reviews | 4/23/2008
OK, I loved Cloverfield. Lovedlovedloved it. Granted, the shaky-cam monster-takes-Manhattan movie gave me a bit of vertigo and yes, there were moments in the theater where I wasn’t sure if the popcorn was gonna stay down. But aside from that, good times. Even better on DVD, truth be told. The perspective is easier on the equilibrium, the extras explain some murky parts and you can freeze-frame to see if the final scene really does show the beast crashing into the water off Coney Island. It’s also one of those flicks so filled with actors you think you’ve seen before that I have decided to dedicate this column to my favorite movie game ever: “Where Do I Know Them From?” And we’ll start with…Executive-producer J.J. Abrams – Shame on you for now knowing this one. Alias. Lost. Felicity.

I really hope Ausiello is wrong about October Road
I love October Road and want to see more episodes. The finale left us with so much unfinished business, the whole Eddie and Janet fiasco and the new Ronnie/Aubrey connection. Of course,... read more

Janet, Eddie and Rooster
I didn't like the turn the Eddie/Janet romance took when she teamed up with Rooster. Janet was not the type to hop into bed with anyone when it was so hard for her to give in to Eddie. I... read more
