ABC's Fall Schedule Announcement: A snap judgment
15 May 2013 11:53 AM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
Maybe Olivia Pope needs to do some damage control for ABC, which brought back only two of the 10 shows it premiered last season. At the network’s upfront presentation on Tuesday, Kerry Washington appeared in a pre-taped clip as her character from Scandal, and offered advice to Anne Sweeney, the president of Disney/ABC Television Group, alongside Jimmy Kimmel. Discussing the problem of Dancing With the Stars, which took a ratings dip this season, Kimmel quipped, “For one thing, they’re not really stars.” There aren’t a ton of stars in ABC’s new lineup, either — but there are »

New 2013 TV Season Breakdown: ABC
14 May 2013 9:57 PM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the third announced earlier today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on ABC.
The network is changing up some of its serialized dramas - removing random repeats in favor of two "uninterrupted runs" of twelve episodes each (one in the fall, one in the spring) for shows like "Once Upon A Time," "Grey’s Anatomy," "Scandal" and "Revenge". The large gaps between the two half-seasons will be bridged by "limited series" designed around only 12-13 episode seasons.
Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't be seen including the high-profile "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" rip-off "Gothica", McG's rip-off of Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet" entitled "Westside", the series based on Disneyland's Big Thunder Mountain ride, the Annie Potts-led "Murder in Manhattan" about »

See James Cromwell and Stuart Townsend in the first trailer for 'Betrayal'
14 May 2013 8:09 PM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
At first, this trailer for "Betrayal" looks like a bad Lifetime movie. It isn't until close to the end when the schmaltzy affair between photographer Sara (Hannah Ware) and attorney Jack (Stuart Townsend) takes an unexpected twist. Sarah's husband, Drew (Chris Johnson), is a successful prosecutor with political aspirations, while Jack is married to Elaine (Wendy Moniz), the daughter of his boss, Thacher Karsten (James Cromwell). When Karsten's brother-in-law Lou is murdered, all evidence points to Karsten's son, T.J. (Henry Thomas). Jack, the company's lead counsel, will have to defend him, but for Sara's prosecutor husband, Drew, this is the »

'Betrayal' trailer: ABC doubles up on soapy melodrama for Sundays with new drama
14 May 2013 2:55 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
This season, ABC failed to find a drama that it could launch behind "Revenge" on Sundays at 10 p.m. and make stick, with both "666 Park Avenue" and "Red Window" tanking. In the newly-released trailer for "Betrayal," the network's fall attempt in the time slot, it's made clear that ABC hopes that by giving "Revenge" fans more of the same, they'll stick around.
"Betrayal" tells the story of Sara Hadley (Hannah Ware, "Boss") and Attorney Jack McAllister (Stuart Townsend, "Queen of the Damned"), whose chance meeting leads to an illicit love affair. The only problem? They both married, and Sara's prosecutor husband is taking on a high-profile murder case involving Jack's in-laws -- on in which Jack is lead counsel on. James Cromwell, Henry Thomas ("E.T.") and Chris J. Johnson ("The Vampire Diaries") co-star.
The trailer hits all the requisite melodramatic beats, including the nearly comical image of Sara shattering a »

Charlize Theron and Seth MacFarlane go on sushi date - Are they together?
9 April 2013 4:19 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
"Family Guy" creator Seth MacFarlane and "Prometheus" star Charlize Theron were seen together Sunday night (April 7), out for sushi in Beverly Hills. Photographers caught up with the pair as they left Matsushisa, after their meal.
Is there a romance brewing between the two? Not according to E! Online, who cite a source as saying they aren't dating, and Charlize is "not his type," adding they're "just friends." MacFarlane recently split with "Game of Thrones" star Emilia Clarke. Theron's last known relationship, with actor Stuart Townsend, ended in 2010.
Couple or not, Theron and MacFarlane seem to enjoy working together. Not only did Charlize appear during Seth's Oscar Awards opening, dancing with Channing Tatum, she's also set to star with MacFarlane in his next movie. "A Million Ways to Die in the West" is written and directed by MacFarlane, and begins filming in New Mexico in May. The film's cast also includes Amanda Seyfried, »

Xiii Proves He Really Has a Way with Words
27 March 2013 1:01 PM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
While the twists and turns in the first season of Xiii gave us plenty of great moments, it was the last episode of the season that delivered our very favorite line. Tom Berenger's Rainer Gerhardt was the perfect baddest-of-the-baddies, but it's Stuart Townsend's Xiii that steals this scene. The spy with no name may not know who he is or where he's from, but it's clear from this clip that he knows how and when to bring the badass.
See what happened after Xiii left Paris in the mind-bending new season that starts this Friday, March 29th at 10p Et/ 9p Pt.

The first episode of Xiii season two premieres this Friday at 10p Et/ 7p P, and it starts with the nameless spy somewhere we've never seen him before. In the first season of the action-packed mystery, the titular character sure racked up some frequent flyer miles, so it's rather amazing that he can still find new places to go. Stuart Townsend's Xiii managed to hit seven foreign countries as well as many different locales in the Us. So where all did Xiii go? We'll run it down for you.

5 Mind Boggling Casting Decisions (that nearly happened)
23 March 2013 3:32 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Casting sometimes is fate and destiny more than skill and talent, from a director’s point of view.
Ah, the joys of hindsight, such as they are. It is so easy to look back on what came about from the small decisions coming together to form an unforgettable whole, and laugh at those who didn’t display prescient vision. This applies to the world of film too, of course, where even the most minor of calls can prove absolutely crucial. There is a reason that these guys are paid so much, after all. But sometimes retrospect shouldn’t be required to spot a blatantly dunce call, even if its long term implications probably would have been hidden from view. The executives and the blindsided directors were, on occasion, spared by fate’s demand for fruition.
Casting is a huge part of filmmaking, and many a movie has »
