Leading to the new season premieres in Fall, FX Network has unleashed another teaser trailer for "Sons of Anarchy". This time the promo is focusing on Katey Sagal's character Gemma Teller Morrow, her ego and the eccentricities that come along with her hard-as-nail attitude.
Gemma is the widow of Samcro motorcycle club founder who later married Ron Perlman's Clay. Speaking of her tough character, Sagal opined, "I like her loyalty, her sense of right and wrong in her world. What's so interesting about a motorcycle club is the set of rules they live by, and there are definite ways of behaving. She definitely loves her own family, her extended club family, and she would do anything for them."
Season 2 is scheduled to air in September for 13 episodes. New to the cast are Adam Arkin who portrays neo-Nazi character named Ethan Zobelle, and Henry Rollins who plays bad-ass Aj Weston.

Members of the Screen Actors Guild on Tuesday began receiving recorded telephone messages from national board member Adam Arkin, urging them to approve the union's contract with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers. Leaders of the group opposed to ratification told Daily Variety that they are unable to respond in kind because they do not have access to the members' telephone numbers. On Monday they voiced complaints about a strongly worded message distributed by the union accusing them of "trying to take our union down" by circulating "misinformation" about the deal. The opponents received support from influential blogger Nikki Finke who called the union's message part of a "smear campaign."

One of the best shows on NBC is dead in the water. "Life" starred Donal Logue, Adam Arkin and Damian Lewis, and for network fare, the show was well-written and cast perfectly. The series has come to an end. NBC announced a partial schedule yesterday without announcing any cancellations. But word quickly spread among reporters from inside network sources that the dramedy was done. "Life" was an excellent under-the-radar series that didn't get a whole lot of coverage from the media. .Life. is the tale of officer Charlie Crews (Damian Lewis) as he rebuilds his own life that was marred by a false accusation that imprisoned him for twelve years.Charlie went Zen instead of bitter or angry

While today's NBC infront presentation brought good news for fans of struggling shows like Heroes and Parks and Recreation. Those who enjoy Life weren't so lucky.
Life revolves around detective Charlie Crews (Damian Lewis), a man who served a dozen years for murders that he didn’t commit. He lost all that was dear to him but survives thanks to his studies of Zen philosophy. He eventually rejoins the Lapd but is a very different man. Others in the cast include Sarah Shahi, Adam Arkin, Brent Sexton, Donal Logue, Brooke Langton, Robin Weigert, Jennifer Siebel, Victor Rivers, and Jessy Schram.
The NBC drama debuted in September 2007 to 10.15 million viewers and a 4.1/11 rating/share of the 18-49 demographic. Later episodes sank to a low of 5.72 million and a 2/6. If not for the writers strike, NBC would have cancelled Life after one year. The execs instead decided to give it another try
