Gillian Anderson On Her Big Return To The Spotlight
23 May 2013 8:13 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Gillian Anderson is staging an impressive return to the TV.
Later this month, "The Fall," a five-episode successful BBC 2 series starring Anderson, makes its way to Netflix. The series, which co-stars "The Good Wife's" Archie Panjabi and "Once Upon a Time" veteran Jamie Dornan, is a provocative murder mystery that follows Stella Gibson (Anderson), a detective superintendent who is called in to investigate a serial killer in Belfast.
All five episodes will be on Netflix beginning May 28 and Anderson says it won't disappoint. "Finish 'The Fall,'" she told The Huffington Post in a phone interview. "It gets better and better, I promise."
Anderson, who spent nine seasons as Dana Scully on "The X-Files," is returning to viewers' lives in a big way. Later this year, the actress, who's been recurring on NBC's "Hannibal," will also be in the Peacock Network's "Crisis," a new drama from Rand Ravich. »

Hannibal - Episode 8 Review
22 May 2013 11:41 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
John Lucking reviews the eighth episode of Hannibal....
This week’s episode of Hannibal is brought to you by the sense of sound, and Will’s mental degradation is first under the microscope as we see him relaxing at home (by fixing things of course) before hearing the sound of a wounded animal from outside. The sound is tracked to an open field with nothing to be seen, and it’s already clear that there is no animal to be found. In animals Will finds solace, but his mind also uses them against him -as with the stag- and so it’s only fitting that his subconscious would torture him further with the cries of an innocent creature. Alana is called to help him search for the animal in distress, but what follows is the biggest step towards romance the show has taken thus far as they discuss Will’s dating credentials. »

The Daily Beast: "The Dark Lure of Gillian Anderson's The Fall"
22 May 2013 9:27 AM, PDT | Televisionary | See recent Televisionary news »
BBC Two’s The Fall, starring Gillian Anderson and Jamie Dornan, debuts on Netflix on May 28. My take on Anderson and Dornan’s searing performances and why you need to watch. At The Daily Beast, you can read my latest feature, "The Dark Lure of Gillian Anderson's The Fall," in which I review BBC Two's serial killer drama The Fall, which stars Gillian Anderson and which makes its Stateside debut next week on Netflix. It is virtually impossible to talk about The Fall—BBC Two’s addictive and provocative serial killer drama, which begins streaming stateside on Netflix on May 28—without mentioning the ghost in the room: Prime Suspect. The allusion to Prime Suspect, a massive hit on both sides of the Atlantic, is well founded. For one, The Fall is the closest that television has come to capturing the taut alchemy of Prime Suspect: part police chase, »

Last Night on Late Night: Jason Bateman, Goaded Into Blaming Will Arnett for Arrested Development Holdup
22 May 2013 12:42 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Last night on the Late Show, David Letterman made it a mission to figure out the cause for the lag in reuniting the Arrested Development cast. "It was, uh, nothing really exciting," Jason Bateman stuttered. "Money, huh?" Letterman interjected. "Um, yes, uhh, no, ahhh." "Who was the holdout?" "Will Arnett." Oh, Gob. Plus: Gillian Anderson, seated between two bearded gentlemen, Aziz Ansari and Jimmy Fallon, caused a bit of a quibblefest over the manliness of manscaping. Also, Tom Hanks, in his quest for a new theater, disrupted David Letterman's monologues over and over and over. As Hanks sees it, the Ed Sullivan theater will soon go the way of the Tonight Show. And finally, Craig Ferguson's zany comedy left Zach Galifianakis utterly defeated and speechless. Watch our compilation to see what you missed. »

'The Fall' review: Are you watching Gillian Anderson's dark drama?
20 May 2013 2:00 PM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - TV news news »
It airs on Monday nights. There's a murder. It must be the new Broadchurch.
Early previews and gossip about The Fall couldn't have been more inaccurate unless they had billed it as a replacement for The Great British Bake Off. Broadchurch was brilliant and so is The Fall. And yes, they both have police investigations. But at that point the similarities end.
The Fall is a jet black murder series, unflinching in its method and ice cold in its delivery. There's no Olivia Colman, comedy West Country accents or whodunnit guesswork to lighten the mood in this Belfast-based drama.
Plus, if The Fall was a whodunnit, it would be the worst whodunnit of all time. The biggest mystery in the show is how many ex-Hollyoaks cast members keep popping up. Seriously, you can't move for them.
Tonight's episode two was a deeply disturbing hour of television that wasn't for the faint-hearted. »
L.A. Screenings: The Upfronts At a Glance
20 May 2013 7:45 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
20th Century Fox TV
Robin Williams’ biggest commitment to series television since the days of “Mork & Mindy” highlights a 20th TV slate that is deep, even if not necessarily brimming with international star appeal.
Williams is teaming with another recognizable face, Sarah Michelle Gellar, in the single-cam, father-daughter workplace comedy “The Crazy Ones,” from the pen of a scribe with no small amount of global cachet himself: David E. Kelley.
Kelley’s star Stateside hasn’t shined quite as brightly of late — “Harry’s Law” (NBC) lasted only two seasons, while “Monday Mornings” (TNT) didn’t make it past one, and half-hour isn’t exactly where the “Picket Fences” and “Ally McBeal” creator made his bones, but a series starring Williams in an accessible setting is filled with worldwide potential.
A slam dunk for interest is the limited-series return of Kiefer Sutherland in “24: Live Another Day.” The condensed format »

Gillian Anderson expects 'X-Files 3' movie: 'There's a very good chance'
20 May 2013 1:49 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Gillian Anderson has said that she expects an X-Files 3 movie.
The actress said that she thinks that creator Chris Carter might already be working on a new script during her Reddit Ask Me Anything interview.
"I would say that there is a very good chance that Chris is in the process of writing it, and as with any creative endeavour, it needs time and space and patience, and I have no doubt that at some point, when it's the right time, and he is happy with it, it will see the light of day, and that will be the beginning," she said.
Anderson returned to the role of Dana Scully alongside David Duchovny in 2008's The X-Files: I Want to Believe, the second movie based on the cult television show.
When the X-Files show ended in 2002 after nine seasons, Carter promised that it would continue in a series of films. »

Rugby League: Leeds v St Helens
7.30pm, Sky Sports 1
After being halted by Huddersfield in the fifth round of the Challenge Cup last weekend, Leeds will be keen to get back to winning ways against a St Helens team that has struggled all season, losing against Widnes and London Broncos recently. St Helens coach Nathan Brown has put his faith in young players this season, with forwards Anthony Walker and Jordan Hand impressing, and will be hoping youthful exuberance can topple a Rhinos side with more than its fair share of seasoned campaigners. Lanre Bakare
9pm, BBC2
Gillian Anderson is the marquee name atop this Belfast-set cop drama, and a fine job she does as detective Stella Gibson, finding unexpected weirdness amid the professionalism. »

Rewind TV: The Fall; The Murder Workers; Skint; Made in Chelsea – review

Yet another serial killer? Gillian Anderson can fix it… unless, of course, it's one of Britain's 700 real-life murders
The Fall (BBC2) | iPlayer
The Murder Workers (C4)
Skint (C4) | 4oD
Made in Chelsea (E4) | 4oD
Another week, another serial killer. There's a pattern emerging here, a whole succession of serial killers occupying the centre stage of drama. I'm afraid to say that we're dealing with that television phenomenon known as serial serial killers, an endless continuum of fictional homicidal psychopaths designed, it seems, with the express purpose of generating work for locksmiths and security alarm firms.
The latest example is The Fall's Paul Spector (Jamie Dornan), an enigmatic grief counsellor by day who likes to unwind at night by spooking, then torturing and murdering Belfast's attractive brunettes. A handsome father of two small children, Spector does not fit the bill of alienated loser or crass misogynist from whose clammy ranks »

Gillian Anderson on 'The Fall' role: 'I like her sexual confidence'
18 May 2013 9:38 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - TV news news »
Gillian Anderson has spoken about her role on new BBC Two series The Fall.
The actress revealed that she enjoyed playing Stella in the Belfast-based series because of her sexual confidence, the Daily Mail reports.
The new series also stars former Calvin Klein model Jamie Dornan as a stalker and serial killer.
The 44-year-old admitted that she has "played a succession of tightly-wound, dark, confused, suicidal women" since portraying Dana Scully in The X Files.
On The Fall, she said: "If Stella finds a man attractive, she doesn't hesitate to make the first move. I quite like that in a woman, I've discovered.
"I like the way Stella is so sexually confident but there are consequences to that, as you'll see over the serial.
"I would quite like to be like her. But I found filming the sex scenes difficult. It always is. Both sides get very nervous and you think, »

Hannibal, Season 1, Episode 8: “Fromage”
Directed by Tim Hunter
Written by Jennifer Schuur and Bryan Fuller
Airs Thursdays at 10pm Est on NBC
Breaking Bad; Boardwalk Empire; Mad Men, Justified; Sons Of Anarchy; Louie; Girls; Shameless, The Americans; Game of Thrones; The number of new quality TV series keeps growing, and we can now add Hannibal to that list.
Over the past 30 years, television has undergone vast improvement. The wave of high-quality niche series may have started as early as the 1980s with Miami Vice, and later with the success of Twin Peaks in the 90′s, but it was only recently that several of these intelligent niche productions have been leading the pack with the highest ratings. Back in the days, a network’s goal was to equally please as many viewers as possible. Now the aim is to please relatively fewer viewers but keep them coming back each and every week. »

Review: 'Hannibal' - 'Fromage'
16 May 2013 8:00 PM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
A few quick thoughts on tonight's "Hannibal" — and other recent developments on the show — coming up just as soon as I take a hammer to my chimney... Other end-of-season bits of work have gotten in the way of me writing anything about the previous two episodes of the show — both of them dealing with Dr. Lecter's side career as the Chesapeake Ripper — which is a shame, as they were two of the strongest episodes so far, and boasted fine guest performances by Eddie Izzard and Gillian Anderson (who continued tonight as Lecter's therapist). My hope is that »
