Marijuana Product Placement, Branding On The Rise As Marketing Execs Reimagine Legal Ganja
13 June 2013 5:13 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Marijuana's public image is coming in for a makeover worthy of daytime TV, with pot product placement already a reality on Hollywood sets.
Cheryl Shuman, a Los Angeles-based marketing and public relations consultant who -- not coincidentally -- founded a medical marijuana collective, has embarked on a campaign to update the image of the stereotypical dope smoker.
She wants to replace visions of dreadlocked surfer-types taking hits from tie-dyed bongs with snapshots of what she portrays as the modern-day marijuana enthusiast: middle-class soccer moms revving up their pocket vaporizers after the children are in bed and suit-clad professionals taking the edge off the day.
“The High Times generation that came with all their pot leafs and all that, they’re there, but the new weed consumer is a successful, professional and most likely female client,” said Shuman, who represents several companies that manufacture smoking gadgets and consults with television and »

5 Television Dramas That Have Aired Well Past Their Prime
10 June 2013 4:02 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
When a television show proves to be successful, the broadcasting companies will do anything to milk it for what it truly is worth and then some. However, there are certain television shows that these networks need to let go while they still have a fan base left.
There are many shows that last much longer than they are supposed to because they were once one of the most popular shows on television. Some notable examples include the original Law & Order or western drama Gunsmoke (pictured above).
The following television shows mentioned are the ones that the networks are too afraid to end in fear that they cannot not replace them. Some may not agree with some of the shows I have chosen, but please keep an open mind. Your arguments are what the comment boards are here for.

Detective: Taylor Swift's alternate career option?
10 June 2013 12:52 AM, PDT | RealBollywood.com | See recent RealBollywood news »
Los Angeles, June 10: Singer Taylor Swift is a sucker for detective shows on the small screen and says she would like to try playing a detective some day.
The singer's career is certainly not going down but she's got a back-up lined up.
"I'd be an interior designer or a detective, but I don't think I'd be a good detective. I just watch all of those crime shows. Anything that has a slight premise of being a crime show, I'm on it, " thesun.co.uk quoted the "I Knew You Were Trouble" star as saying.
"I have so many boxsets. I'm into 'Criminal Minds' at the moment, and 'Law And Order', and 'CSI'. I've never seen 'The Wire',. »

Helen Hanft, the comedic actress who became a favorite of such writer-directors as Woody Allen, Paul Mazursky and Tom Eyen, died of intestinal complications on May 30 in New York. She was 79.
Born in the Bronx on April 3, 1934, she attended the High School of Performing Arts and began her theatrical career as a pioneer of experimental theater at such venues as La Mama Etc. and Caffe Cino.
Known for her loudmouth persona, she often played eccentric, flamboyant, raunchy characters in Tom Eyen comedies including “Sarah B. Divine,” “Areatha in the Ice Palace” and “My Next Husband Will Be a Beauty” as well as “Why Hanna’s Skirt Won’t Stay Down,” “Women Behind Bars,“ “The Neon Woman” (in which she co-starred with Divine), and “The White Whore and the Bit Player.” She also had a great personal success in David Rabe’s “In the Boom Boom Room” at Joseph Papp’s Public Theater. »

Dan Harmon Returns For Community Season 5!
2 June 2013 1:22 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
In probably one of the most highly welcomed twitter notices of all time, Dan Harmon confirmed that he will be heading back to care for his cult-favourite television show Community after a year long absence to helm the upcoming Season 5.
As all fans of the show know and for those that have just started to catch up on Community via bittorrent or Netflix (that’s okay, you’re forgiven) – Community is the story of a diverse group of community college students that attend probably the worst college in America; Greendale Community College, school motto E Pluribus Anus and their gender non-specific mascot the Human Being. It was initially centered around Jeff Winger aka Joel McHale as a disbarred self-obsessed lawyer who had to return to school to earn a law degree and the study group he formed grow into a show about friends, family and … well, that’s bullsh*t. »

NBC Renews Hannibal For A Second Season
31 May 2013 7:49 AM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »
In a move that surprises no one who has been following TV’s trials and tribulations, NBC has renewed the popular drama Hannibal for a second season.
Why no surprise? Hannibal got off to a solid start in the ratings then dropped off slightly, but has garnered critical praise and an already growing fandom around the internet. What’s more – and probably what prompted NBC to hang onto it – other cable networks as well as Amazon expressed interest in taking on the show if NBC dropped it.
Hannibal is based on characters from Thomas Harris’s novel Red Dragon – though many of us of course know Dr. Hannibal Lecter first from Silence of the Lambs. But this is before the good doctor became known as the cannibalistic gentleman we all know and love.
In the series, Hannibal (played by Mads Mikkelsen), is everyone’s favorite cannibal serial killer and psychiatrist, »

Waking From The Dream: Community Season Four
25 May 2013 3:41 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
At the end of last year I wrote about the upcoming, as-yet unseen season four of Community with a kind of mournful hope (here). The mystifying firing of creator, showrunner, and guiding auteur Dan Harmon was looming large over the production, and fractious behind the scenes conflict with the notoriously irascible Chevy Chase had put the production under a cloud. However, while things seemed irredeemably grim, the series had developed a tradition of repeatedly proving itself capable of exceeding dire expectations time and again.
It was a show that lived under the perpetual shadow of cancellation and reduced budgets, but each week fought on bravely, continuing to tackle daunting narrative conceits that have bewildered multimillion-dollar films. It had, after all, managed to repeatedly legitimise seemingly impossible shifts in theme and genre and tone: from jumps into clay animation, to exploring alternate dimensions through the delivery of a pizza; from making »

13 Things Taylor Swift And Your Grandma Have In Common
21 May 2013 2:47 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Taylor Swift is a 23-year-old superstar, but she might have more in common with your grandma than with an average college senior.
You'll be hard to find the "I Knew You Were Trouble" singer out partying into the wee hours of the night. Instead, she likes making memes of her cat and watching "Law & Order." Oh, and she probably uses her great-grandmother as fashion inspiration -- not that there's anything wrong with that.
Taylor might be 23 going on 85, but she's still the most lovable, youngest grandma we know.
Here are 13 things Taylor and your grandma probably have in common:
1. They aren't afraid to dance like this -- even when everyone's watching.
2. They like the same board games and domesticated animals.
I shouldn't read into the fact that my family got me a new scrabble board (the one that swivels!) &cat treats for Christmas, right? Am I 85?

Penny Marshall On What Keeps 'Laverne & Shirley' Relevant
10 May 2013 8:27 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"Laverne & Shirley" ended its eight-season run 30 years ago on May 10, 1983, but turn on your TV at the right time and you'll still find Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams in their now-iconic roles.
Marshall, who played tough girl Laverne De Fazio and went on to direct box office classics such as "Big" and "A League of Their Own," said she has nothing but fond memories of the show.
"It was just a fun show to do," Marshall told The Huffington Post in a phone interview. "At least we tried to make it as funny as possible. The writers did as well as Cindy and I and everybody else. We were considered lower class, which we were. We never got nominated for an Emmy. We never got nominated for nothing ..."
"Laverne & Shirley" was a spinoff of "Happy Days." Marshall, whose brother Garry created the parent show, asked her to take on the »

Former heavyweight champion sets his sights on Shakespeare after wrapping up his one-man stage show, Undisputed Truth
It might bring new meaning to the line "lend me your ears", but former boxer Mike Tyson has said he wants to try his skills at Shakespeare.
The onetime heavyweight champion of the world has been touring his autobiographical solo show, Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth, around the Us and seems to have picked up a taste for the stage.
Speaking to the New York Daily News, the 46-year-old asked: "Wouldn't Shakespeare be awesome?" before pointing to one part in particular: "That black guy … could you imagine me in Othello?"
However, Tyson recognised he might need some training before tackling one of the most iconic roles in the theatrical canon: "Anything you give me time to prepare, I can do," he said. "I don't think I am ready for that yet, but I would like to try. »

NBC Renews ‘Revolution’ For Season 2, ‘Grimm’ For Season 3
26 April 2013 4:08 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
NBC has decided to spare fans a bit of un-due agony by announcing the renewal of five dramas – Revolution, Grimm, Chicago Fire, Parenthood, and Law and Order: Svu – weeks ahead of the announcement of their full fall schedule. Each show will return next season with a full 22 episode run.
Though never really assured of a renewal before, none of these shows seemed to really be “on the bubble” or otherwise in danger of cancellation, especially on NBC, a network in need of consistent performers, and in particular, freshman success stories.
One of those success stories, Revolution, is the top rated new drama among the key demos, and the show’s youthful audience surely helps to maintain good buzz, something that doubtlessly helped keep the serialized series alive after a long mid-season hiatus, a break that arguably helped ...
