Watercooler: Will Ferrell Drops Anchorman News on Conan
Watercooler: Does ABC Hate Cougar Town?
OK, cough it up, ABC: What is your problem with Cougar Town? After making us wait longer than was appropriate for its return (seriously, mid-midseason is poor form), the Alphabet net went and yanked the critically beloved, if ratings-challenged, sitcom from the schedule once again last night. For a Dancing With the Stars catch-up special. Because the three episodes which have aired so far this season have been so complex? Come on. Courteney Cox and company bought half the country a beer with their viewing parties, trying to help out your marketing department. The least you could do is air their damn show.
Watercooler: Fringe Reunites Polivia!
"She is your Olivia."Boom. With those four words, the Fringe-verse(s) got just a little bit more awesome Friday night as The Observer informed Peter that he was, in fact, sharing the same space with the Liv he thought he'd lost.
The Carrie Diaries First Image Released!
To quote adult Carrie Bradshaw, "dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style." And that is just what The CW is counting on with their planned adaptation of Candace Bushnell's Sex and the City prequel novel, The Carrie Diaries. Centered on teen Bradshaw's life as a fashion-forward high-school student in the '80s surrounded by some equally fab friends, the in-production pilot from Gossip Girl wonder twins Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage stars AnnaSophia Robb (Soul Surfer), who has some pretty big Manolos to fill as a version of Carrie who's not even legal to sip Cosmos.
Exclusive: Fox Helps Out Fringe Fans on Twitter!
Thanks to a group of determined devotees, Fringe's spring return tomorrow night (9/8c, Fox) brings with it a new kind of social-media shout-out. Working under the name Fringenuity, these fans have been campaigning to get their show-inspired hashtags to trend domestically and internationally every Friday night on ...
Watercooler: NBC Needs to Get Bent
Seriously, what the headline says. Because the powers-that-be clearly don't get how delightful this new rom-com is, or they wouldn't be burning off all six episodes with three weeks of back-to-back airings. Much like last season's Perfect Couples (ironically also from executive producer Tad Quill and co-starring David Walton), Bent has a charm that is seemingly lost on the network happier with things like...
Amanda Peet Takes a Comedic Turn With Bent and Has Game of Thrones Envy
Let's face it, Amanda Peet is kind of awesome. Not only is she beautiful, she's starring in the likable new sitcom Bent (premiering tonight on NBC with back-to-back episodes at 9/8c and 9:30/8:30c), about a single mom whose home — and heart — is turned upside down by a charismatic contractor (David Walton). What's more, she's married to Game of Thrones exec producer David Benioff. Is it any wonder we're bent on talking to her?
Watercooler: Fashion Star or Hot Mess?
Oh dear. To quote a real fashion star, that is a lot of look. And honestly, Nicole Richie deserves better. Who ever imagined you'd hear that some day?! Last night, NBC's design competition, Fashion Star, returned for week two and once we got past the sight of Jessica Simpson's ginormous bra-monsters trying to eat their way up her neckline, we were struck by all the excessive business going on. An overly loud audience. Runway shows that look like a theme-park concert mated with a Eastern European beauty pageant. Backstage footage. Confessional interviews. Judges comments. Buyers bidding. It's just too much.
Watercooler Exclusive! Pretty Little Liars' Mastermind Teases Season 3
Slap us in the girls' room and call us Jenna. Mona was "A" all along!Or at least one "A." Last night, Pretty Little Liars' second season went out with a bang of crazy as the ABC Family quartet finally figured out who's been terrorizing them since Ali's funeral.
Watercooler: The Pluck of the Irish Invades 30 Rock
Well kiss the Blarney Stone and pour us some Lucky Charms! 30 Rock went green last night for St. Patty's Day and if you saw it, the luck of the Irish was surely on your side. Because once again, the sitcom NBC reschedules every six weeks served up yet another hearty holiday episode.
Watercooler: A Very Special Whitney?
Oh Whitney, you're better than this. A few months ago, we couldn't say that, but back then you weren't better than a lot of things.However, over the course of the coarse comedienne's first season, she has totally grown on us. We love the chemistry between Whitney Cummings and co-star Chris D'Elia, and the writing ...
Matt Davis Is Having a Bloody Good Time on The Vampire Diaries
The Vampire Diaries is back from winter hiatus tonight with major flashbacks and some serious suspicions about Meredith's deadly habits, so we thought it was time to check in with our resident vampire hunter, Matt Davis, to see what's up with Alaric's always messed-up love life and his on-again, off-again hatred for a certain Salvatore.
Million Dollar Listing New York's Michael Lorber Keeps it Real (Estate)
As one of the high-end realtors on Million Dollar Listing New York (Wednesday, 10/9c, Bravo), Michael Lorber has the keys to Manhattan's kingdom. But he's not some buttoned-down bore who's all about the art of the sale. In fact, this guy is well aware that where one is living is just as important as the act of giving.
Watercooler: Megan Mullally, Breaking In and Cracking Us Up
Dear Megan Mullally, Will you please be in everything? Seriously, we love you and not just because of Anastasia Beaverhausen. No, our admiration for you transcends your Will & Grace days, your Party Down run, hell even the fact that you're married to Ron Freakin' Swanson.
Watercooler: Pretty Little Liars Ups Its "A" Game
OK, we need to talk about "A."In less than one week, Pretty Little Liars will finally identity Rosewood's resident cyberstalker, and as of last night's scary, scandalous and sooo juicy episode, the list of suspects is longer than Hanna's criminal record.
Watercooler: Desperate Housewives' Big Bang
Well if you didn't know who was gonna die from the horrid websites and news shows that revealed it without so much as a spoiler warning last week, than you definitely knew from Susan's "you take care of everyone" speech on the front steps. Swaddled in soft music, a light breeze and Susan's loving words about their first meeting, Desperate Housewives went and telegraphed the fatal twist that was about to befall our beloved Mike Delfino. The ominous cut to the loan shark's slowly approaching car didn't help, either.
First Look: Smash's Ivy Cracks Under Pressure
Let me be your... argh!Gentleman may prefer blondes, but Derek (who is no gentleman, we can all agree) prefers his leading lady to be on pitch and that is so not where Ivy is in this exclusive clip from Monday's episode of Smash.
Watercooler: Archer Dings the Body Electric
It's just like the gypsy woman said!Last night, Archer fulfilled the prophecy many of us have made — that it would always be the best kind of wrong — by introducing our libidinous spy-hunk to the world of cyborg-sex.
Watercooler: We Take a Shining to Psych's Lassiter
Let's say it together: We love Lassie!Last night, Psych served up a certifiable gem that was two great tastes in one: A fantastically funny spoof of The Shining and a showcase for the always wonderful Timothy Omundson, whose Lassiter found himself going all sorts of Jack Nicholson after buying a seemingly haunted ...
Watercooler: A Bend in The River
So that was weird. Last night, things on The River went from scary to schizo as the crew of Magus uncovered footage of looked to be Emmet's final hours. Turns out he was being hit on by Katie Featherston from Paranormal Activity and terrorized by a jungle demon...
Watercooler: Did the Women Tell All Tell Us All About Bachelor Pad 3?
Confession: We watched the Bachelor: The Women Tell All special last night to see the ladies turn into feral she-monsters and tear Courtney apart. She's been awful all season and got what she deserved.
Scare-meister Oren Peli Talks Horror Movies, Spoilers and What's Next on The River!
If you've been following ABC's The River , you know some messed up stuff has been happening ever since the crew of the Magus set out to find Dr. Emmet Cole. In an effort to find out what awaits them as they head deeper into the Amazon, we tempted executive producer Oren Peli with a night of pizza, The Exorcist on Blu-ray (his favorite horror movie) and talk about his Paranormal Activity series.
