SHE PLAYS Graceland's gung-ho FBI agent Charlie DeMarco, a badass so committed to not blowing her cover that she shot up heroin in front of a dealer. "I've never done hard drugs because of what they did to my life," says the 32-year-old Brooklyn native and -single mom of a 5-year-old son. "My mother put the fear in me at a very young age -because my father died of a heroin overdose when I was 2. It kind of ruined my life."
Heidi Klum is in — Parks and Recreation's season premiere, that is (Sept. 26 on NBC). The Project Runway host and America's Got Talent judge plays the popular mayor of a Denmark town who...
Turns out, it really is a dog's life. Canines dominate the latest list in TV Guide Magazine's 60th anniversary celebration, taking three of the top five spots and 20 places overall. But there's still room for cats, birds and barnyard critters, not to mention a dinosaur (sorry, Barney didn't make the cut!). We limited our picks to one animal per show so Looney Tunes, Muppets and Disney characters wouldn't hog all the attention.
Heidi Klum struts onto the Project Runway stage in Manhattan's garment district and addresses a group of the show's superfans, who are serving as models for the Sept. 19 episode. "I love Project Runway," she tells them. "It's my fifth baby, so to speak." If that's the case, the real-life mother of four figuratively...
Liev Schreiber realizes it's ironic that he's chosen to meet for lunch at a downtown Manhattan café called the Smile. "Ray Donovan doesn't smile — it's not my fault!" he says with a laugh. "[Showtime president] David Nevins said to me, 'Could you maybe find a place to smile?' 'I had no idea I had permission. You want me to? I'll smile!' So you'll notice a bit more smiling." The 45-year-old actor certainly has reason to grin these days:
It's the last day of shooting on the penultimate episode of USA's long-running spy hit Burn Notice, but if you had bet that the cast would be coasting to the finish line, you would get burned. At Burger King's former Miami headquarters — abandoned after they were damaged by Hurricane Andrew in 1992 — secret agent men Jeffrey Donovan and Bruce Campbell are lowering themselves into a man-made bay that runs alongside the industrial complex. (For Burn's purposes, it has been converted into a shady hacker's satellite-communications center.) Oh, and a real-life crocodile has made a surprise appearance, ominously swimming around in the water and, at one point, devouring a turtle. "Is this...
Much has changed on the Unforgettable set since the drama about NYPD cop Carrie Wells (Poppy Montgomery), who has near perfect memory, was canceled more than a year ago by CBS, then miraculously brought back to life. The action has moved from a grimy Queens precinct to the shiny, high-tech Manhattan Major Crimes Section, and the show's tone has been similarly lightened, in keeping with its off-season scheduling (the first of eight summer episodes aired July 28, with five more new installments to follow later).
Turns out Burn Notice might not be burned out after all. Even as the USA Network spy smash shoots its final episode in Miami, there's talk of a possible spinoff following the further adventures of unorthodox operatives Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell) and...
Gabrielle Anwar just started shooting the final episode of USA Network's long-running hit Burn Notice in Miami today, but she's already booked her next project. She'll be co-producing and co-directing as well as appearing in a documentary about an unquestionably hot topic: the vagina. "In my opinion, the...
NCIS devotees who can't wait until September to get their next Brian Dietzen fix, you're in luck. The fan favorite, who plays junior medical examiner Jimmy Palmer on the hit CBS drama, has co-written and stars in a new indie romantic dramedy, Congratulations (available July 30 on Video on Demand).
It's good to be the King of Comedy. Mel Brooks has been on a roll lately, with a DVD box set, a PBS American Masters tribute and now an AFI Life Achievement Award, presented by Martin Scorsese at a black-tie gala in Hollywood. The 86-year-old legend granted us an audience...
Long before Jeff Probst snuffed out his first torch on Survivor, the viewing tribe had spoken: We love watching the game shows people play. This is the original reality TV — average Joes and Janes trying to outwit, outplay and outlast their competitors. So, excluding the bug-eating mutations of the post-Richard Hatch era, here are the top 60 shows that truly got game...
Family ties bind us. We invite TV dynasties into the middle of our full houses (upstairs, downstairs) for happy days and good times. Watching married-with-children characters one day at a time becomes an all-in-the-family affair for the wonder years and brings about home improvement. That's why modern families matter and can take us to seventh heaven.
It all started, oddly enough, on the set of director Steven Soderbergh's gritty, Oscar-winning 2000 drama Traffic. "Steven said to me, 'You ever think of playing Liberace?'" remembers Michael Douglas of the first time he was approached to portray the ultra-effeminate yet closeted pianist who was the world's highest-paid entertainer for decades. "And I thought, 'This guy's f---ing with me. I'm playing the drug czar! Is this some kind of director's trick?'"
Stephen Colbert's alter egomaniac on The Colbert Report may be a hawk, but the real Colbert is a peace-loving guy, at least when it comes to the late-night battlefield. We caught up with the Comedy Central cutup — in a rare interview out of character — at the opening-night gala for the Montclair Film Festival in his adopted home state of New Jersey (his wife Evelyn is one of the fest's organizers).
Heidi Klum is in — as a judge on America's Got Talent. The Project Runway host will join Howard Stern, Howie Mandel and Mel B. on the panel of NBC's summer hit, which is currently scheduled to premiere May 28. We caught up with Klum after her first day's work on AGT.
Krysten Ritter is used to making catty comments as the titular beeyotch in ABC's Don't Trust The B--- in Apartment 23, but can she cut it alongside the famously snarky panel of fashionistas on Lifetime's Project Runway? We'll find out when she serves as guest judge on this week's episode....
From her Oscar-nominated performance in the transgender-themed true-crime story Boys Don't Cry to her stint as a "sister-wife" on HBO's Big Love, Chloë Sevigny has never shied away from provocative roles. Her work as an Irish contract killer who's in transition from male to female in the six-part British series Hit & Miss (airing on DirecTV's Audience Network) may be her most controversial turn yet. Not that she planned it that way. "This fell into my lap," says the actress. "And it's such a juicy part." Here, she discusses Hit & Miss as well as gigs on Law & Order: SVU and American Horror Story...
Fans have been up in arms ever since beloved boss-lady Hetty (Linda Hunt) announced in the season finale of NCIS: Los Angeles that she was resigning, apparently to be replaced by Miguel Ferrer's Assistant Director Granger. Now executive producer Shane Brennan has broken his code of silence on the matter and cleared up the situation... in his own teasingly cryptic way.
From her Oscar-nominated role in Boys Don't Cry to her recent guest shot on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Chloë Sevigny is no stranger to sexually charged material — and that's not about to change. She'll soon be seen as a transgendered hit man/woman in the British miniseries Hit & Miss (debuting on DirecTV July 11), and she'll ...
Rhona Mitra is ready for action! The Boston Legal alum has joined forces with Cinemax's counterterrorism drama Strike Back for its second season, debuting in August. "This show is all the things that excite me," says the actress. "I find it...
How did Glenn Close's ruthless Damages lawyer get so damaged? We'll find out when the DirecTV drama returns for its fifth and final season.
