The Baftas might have more respectability and the Oscars more star wattage, but it's hard not to get swept up in the sheer exuberance of this great night out for the soap stars
Something happened during the British Soap Awards last night. Something weird. Something that you probably wouldn't see on many other awards shows. Chris Noth, formerly of Sex and the City, had been hired to present an award. Phillip Schofield announced his name. And everyone went berserk.
Jessie Wallace started lolling about her seat, her jaw dangling several feet below the rest of her face and her eyeballs cartwheeling insanely in their sockets. Another actor stood up and bellowed "I love you!" with all the mad-eyed ferocity of a crackpot Jeremy Kyle guest. His name alone was enough to prompt an audible intake of breath from the audience. And this was Chris Noth, for crying out loud. If »

Chicago – “Frankie Go Boom” is a comedy about deplorable people who commit heartless acts and expect us to laugh at them. It casts the hugely lovable Chris O’Dowd as the most loathsome schlub ever to materialize on the big screen since Josh Gad’s wretched comic relief in “Love and Other Drugs.” And it puts Ron Perlman in drag but fails to give him a single laugh-worthy line. What a misfire.
I’m sure there’s a biting satire that could be made about ordinary folk driven to near suicide after a circumstantial humiliation goes viral, thanks to a well-placed camera. Yet any laughs to be had can only be spawned from characters that at least partially resemble relatable human beings. Aside from its two sympathetic would-be lovebirds, “Frankie Go Boom” is populated entirely by freaks. Narcissistic freaks. Sex-crazed freaks. Christian freaks. And freaks who have sex changes. They »

Cinelinx rumbles with the Frankie Go Boom Blu-ray!
The Set-up
Frank (Charlie Hunnam) has his world turned upside down when his loser brother Bruce (Chris O'Dowd) puts a video of his one night stand online. Also stars Lizzy Caplan, Chris Noth, Ron Perlman, and a pig.
Written and Directed by: Jordan Roberts
The Delivery
Frankie Go Boom boasts a pretty talented cast: Sons of Anarchy stars Charlie Hunnam and Ron Perlman, as well as Lizzy Caplan, Chris O'Dowd, and Chris Noth. Unfortunately, the film relies less on the characters or genuine humor for laughs, and more on uncomfortable situations and humiliation. With only a handful of exceptions, it doesn't work. It's really too bad, because there is a potentially enjoyable, quirky little comedy here. It is just buried under a number of groan-worthy scenes that make you wonder what director/screenwriter Jordan Roberts was thinking.
Frankie (Charlie Hunnam) is actually »

Talk about a spoiler alert. Fans of The Good Wife were shocked when — moments after Alicia (Julianna Margulies) accepted Peter's (Chris Noth) proposal to renew their vows in Hawaii — the preview for Sunday's season finale (9/8c on CBS) showed Alicia and Will (Josh Charles) making out in a car like a couple of teenagers. And though that scene answers the question of whether Alicia would act on her lingering feelings, there are still plenty of story lines up in the air going into Season 4's final hour. We take a closer look at the biggest burning questions...

Julianna Margulies and Chris Noth's characters may have a twisted relationship on "The Good Wife," but the actors also have quite the past.
In 1993, before Alicia and Peter Florrick were even a glimmer in the eyes of "Good Wife" creators Robert and Michelle King, Margulies guest starred on "Law & Order," on which Noth was a regular.
In the Season 3 episode, titled "Conduct Unbecoming," a female Naval officer is murdered during a party and Detectives Briscoe (Jerry Orbach) and Logan (Noth) suspect that the Navy is protecting the killer.
Check out the above clip of Margulies's second ever credited role, where she plays Lt. Ruth Mendoza (uniform and all), who turns out to be a key witness for Briscoe and Logan.
As for Alicia and Peter, tune in for "The Good Wife" season finale on Sunday, April 28 at 9 p.m. Et on CBS to find out what will happen.

It's decision time on "The Good Wife": Will Alicia Florrick (Julianna Margulies) stand by her husband Peter (Chris Noth) or give into her temptations and rekindle her affair with Will (Josh Charles)?
"I thought it was so cut and dry when I started this show, that she should not be with Peter at all after his behavior," Margulies told The Huffington Post in a phone interview earlier in the week. "But then came this moral dilemma: Can one forgive? Can one move on? Is there such a thing as redeeming oneself? It's not a black-and-white case."
"The Good Wife" concludes Season 4 on Sunday, April 28 and the series will finally -- maybe? -- put the Alicia-Peter-Will love triangle to bed. The episode, titled "What's in the Box?," takes place over the span of 24-hours and features the results of the Illinois gubernatorial race that's gone on all season and Cary »

Talk about corporate synergy. CBS anchor Charlie Rose stopped by "The Good Wife" on Sunday, guest starring as himself to interview Alicia Florrick (Julianna Margulies) about her husband Peter's (Chris Noth) latest run for public office. Afterwards, the popular TV personality was happy to poke fun at his cameo on the hit drama on "CBS This Morning."
“The offers are pouring in, but I’m not going to give up my day job," Rose joked to his colleagues.
Viewers seemed to enjoy Rose's scripted appearance, with RightOrRude.com co-founder Jeannie Pearman observing, “He has a gracious manner and a way of getting awkward information from a guest." A perfect interviewer for the notoriously reticent Mrs. Florrick, no?
"The Good Wife" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. Et on CBS. "CBS This Morning" airs weekdays at 7 a.m. Et.

For four years, "The Good Wife" fans have battled it out over who Alicia Florrick should be with.
Julianna Margulies' character has been with both Will (Josh Charles) and Peter (Chris Noth) over "The Good Wife's" four season run and in the Season 4 finale, the character is set to make a choice between her two loves yet again.
The Sunday, April 21 episode of "The Good Wife" saw Alicia agree to renew her vows to Peter, but unbeknownst to her, Alicia's mother Veronica (Stockard Channing) went to Will and told him if he loved her daughter, he had to make his move.
"The rollercoaster that has been building reaches a crest," "The Good Wife" co-creator Robert King told TVLine. "At a certain point, even in life, people get sick of the fact that they're in a triangle and something has to blow. And so something blows."
So, "Good Wife" fans, »

"The Good Wife" love triangle between Alicia, Will and Peter will be resolved in the Season 4 finale, according to TVLine.
Over the course of the last several episodes, Alicia (Julianna Margulies) has found herself wavering from Team Peter (Chris Noth) to Team Will (Josh Charles). Her fling with Will ended last season, but a passionate kiss in "Red Team/Blue Team" brought the love triangle back again.
"The rollercoaster that has been building reaches a crest," "The Good Wife" co-creator Robert King told TVLine. "At a certain point, even in life, people get sick of the fact that they're in a triangle and something has to blow. And so something blows."
Recent episodes have seen Alicia remembering her time with Will -- quite fondly -- and even getting chills around him. A promo for the last few episodes of "The Good Wife" Season 4 has Veronica (Stockard Channing), Alicia's mom, confront Will about her daughter. »

Studio: Universal Studios Home Entertainment
Comedy movie Frankie Go Boom proves one thing: Ron Perlman (Conan the Barbarian) does not make an attractive woman.
Written and directed by Jordan Roberts (Around the Bend), the film tells the story of Frankie (Charlie Hunnam, TV’s Sons of Anarchy), who has been tortured and humiliated by his brother Bruce (Chris O’Dowd, This is 40) his entire life by posting videos of Frankie online. Finally Bruce goes too far, uploading a video of a disastrous one-night stand with the inebriated daughter (Lizzy Caplan, Bachelorette) of a loose-cannon ex-movie star. To try to undo the damage, the brothers enlist the help of Bruce’s transsexual computer hacking friend (Perlman).
Chris Noth (Sex and the City 2) also stars in Frankie Go Boom, which got so-so reviews from critics. MSN Movies critic Kathleen Murphy said, “Though deliciously rude and crude, »

On Sunday’s episode of CBS’ The Good Wife, Diane (Christine Baranski) asked the firm’s investigator Kalinda (Archie Panjabi) to run a background check on her so she’d know where she’d be vulnerable if Peter Florrick (Chris Noth) is elected governor and nominates her for the vacant seat on the Illinois Supreme Court, as planned. The first thing Kalinda turned up: Vampire Diaries fan fiction originating from Diane’s home IP address and email. Watch the scene below. (Spoiler alert: Diane blames her housekeeper, who lacks boundaries.)

"Do you love my daughter? Because if you do, it's time to stop being polite about it," Veronica tells Will.
It is on!

Why is it that The Good Wife writers give such lovable actors such despicable roles? The proof is in the guest stars. See: Michael J. Fox as the infuriating Louis Canning, Matthew Perry as the pathological liar Mike Kresteva, and Dylan Baker as the notorious wife killer Colin Sweeney. Baker—who’s already nabbed two Emmy noms for his portrayal of Sweeney—reprises his role in Sunday’s all-new episode, “The Wheels of Justice.” In the ep, Alicia (Juliana Margulies) and Will (Josh Charles) go to trial to keep Sweeney from receiving a life sentence. Baker called in to tease »

Chicago – The torch is being passed at Studio Ghibli from the great Hayao Miyazaki (“Princess Mononoke,” “Spirited Away”) to his son Goro, who directs this week’s tender “From Up on Poppy Hill,” certainly not one of the best in the Ghibli canon but a well-made, enjoyable melodrama nonetheless. A full awareness that it’s kind of a cheap melodrama (one of the characters even says so) doesn’t change the fact that it is but the young Miyazaki’s visual palette is notably beautiful and the voice work is strong throughout. Briefly, I thought it was sweet, and how many animated films can we say that about nowadays?
Rating: 3.5/5.0
Based on a comic and with a script co-credited to Hayao Miyazaki, one of the most important men in the history of animation, “From Up on Poppy Hill” tells the story of Umi Matsuzaki (Sarah Bolger), a gentle girl forced »

Mike Kresteva is back! Friends alum and current Go On star Matthew Perry makes his return to CBS' The Good Wife Sunday as the Republican rival to Democratic gubernatorial candidate -- and Alicia's (Julianna Margulies) husband -- Peter Florrick (Chris Noth).
