DVD Deal: The West Wing: The Complete Series Collection for $79.99
11 hours ago | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day is The West Wing: The Complete Series Collection for $79.99 (73% off its $299.99 list price). The first four seasons is among the best television ever made. The writing is top-notch, the performances are unforgettable, and it's constantly uplifting. If you bought these seasons individually, you'd be paying over $80, so this box set is already a good deal. Throw in the last three seasons (season 5 is rough, but the show picks back up in seasons 6 and 7), and today's deal is definitely a bargain. Like all Gold Box deals, it’s only good while supplies last or until midnight tonight. Click here to buy. For hundreds of additional DVD and Blu-ray deals, click here. Note: Collider earns a small referral fee when our readers purchase something on Amazon through one of our links. The money generated helps pay our staff and keep the site running. Thank »

DVD Deal: Now is the Time To Pick up 'The West Wing' Complete Collection
12 hours ago | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
A short while back I rewatched the first four seasons of "The West Wing" and mentioned it in my weekly "What I Watched" columns and I got the impression it got a lot of you to watch the series for the first time. I also got the impression a lot of you liked it as much as I do. Well, now is your chance to own all seven seasons for a deeply discounted price. Amazon has got "The West Wing: The Complete Series Collection" on sale today for $79.99 in a nice, little faux-leather case. Personally I wish I owned this rather than all seven individual seasons, largely because it would take up less room on my DVD case, but such is life. You can buy the set right here and I feel comfortable suggesting this as a worthy purchase. The show was created by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network) and »

Unaired Episodes of 666 Park Avenue Join Zero Hour This Summer
23 May 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »
We were so disappointed that Zero Hour wasn’t given more time to gain an audience, but at least were pleased when ABC announced that the entire first season would air this summer, including the first three episodes that aired in the winter.
Happily, ABC has now paired those episodes with unaired episodes from another gone-too-soon show from earlier this season, 666 Park Avenue, according to Deadline. As you know from the SciFiMafia.com Spring and Summer Primetime TV Schedule and the SciFiMafia.com Calendar, Zero Hour premieres Saturday, June 15 at 8/7c. 666 Park Avenue will join Zero Hour on June 22, following it at 9/8c and continuing weekly for three more weeks.
Excellent news, I’m So looking forward to summer Saturdays, these were great shows; thanks to ABC for airing the rest of the episodes.

Are we really in a 'second golden age for television'?
23 May 2013 8:36 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
Steven Soderbergh is the latest Hollywood director to praise TV over film, but this second coming of great drama, including The Sopranos, The Wire and Spooks, may already be over
Cinema has historically considered itself superior to television, with executives and critics frequently sneering that a movie or documentary has a "made-for-tv" feel. But a number of significant Hollywood film-makers – including David Lynch, Steven Spielberg and Oliver Stone – have moved to the junior medium for mini-series or documentaries and now Steven Soderbergh has paid a compliment, if a slightly qualified one, to home entertainment. "In terms of cultural real estate," Soderbergh said at the Cannes film festival, "TV has really taken control of the conversation that used to be the reserve of movies. It's sort of a second golden age of television, which is great for the viewers. … If you like your stories to go narrow and deep, TV is exciting. »

Fast & Furious 6 Review: An Incredibly Dumb Action Behemoth
21 May 2013 4:59 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
At one critical point in Fast & Furious 6, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, caught in a kind of bizarro world walk and talk (think The West Wing) and discussing the movie’s criminal syndicate, tells Mma fighter Gina Carano: “I want to come down on them like the walls of Jericho.” If the idea of that moment occurring prompts a slight grin to form on your face, chances are that the sixth entry in this newly revitalised car crash franchise will bring you a relative amount of joy. Just make sure you leave your Iq at the door.
Fast & Furious 6 is, without a doubt, one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen. The set-pieces, straight from a comic book, are absurd in every conceivable way: loud, rendered with (sometimes incomprehensible) CGI, they crash all over the screen in explosions of sparks and scratched metallic paint-jobs. The jokes, »

ABC to Air the Remaining Episodes of 666 Park Avenue Beginning in June
20 May 2013 7:00 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »
"666 Park Avenue" was one of the biggest disappointments of the last TV season - both for viewers story-wise and for ABC ratings-wise. But fans of the show will finally have some closure when the network begins airing the remaining four episodes on Saturday, June 22nd.
Per TVLine the ill-fated spooker, which ABC pulled from the schedule following its December 2, 2012 broadcast, will reward loyal viewers with a finale on July 13. Speaking with the site recently, series star Rachael Taylor gave the final episode two very enthusiastic thumbs up, saying, “I love the ending. Everything gets completely flipped on its head, and it was very fun for me to play. My character is very different in the last episode. I’m really looking forward to people seeing the end, because shit gets crazy.”
Synopsis:
At the ominous address of 666 Park Avenue, anything you desire can be yours. Everyone has needs, desires, and ambition. »

Meet 'Mom'
18 May 2013 10:14 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"Mom" on CBS is bringing Anna Faris and Allison Janney together.
The new sitcom from Chuck Lorre stars Faris as Christy, a newly sober single mom. This is Faris' first regular TV gig and "The House Bunny" actress said a combination of things drew her to the project.
"The script was so strong and so funny, the character was so complicated and dimensional and then obviously Chuck Lorre and CBS. You couldn't be in better hands." Faris told The Huffington Post on the red carpet of CBS's upfront presentation. "Then Allison came on ... it sounds like one of these actor soundbites that I'm about to tell you, but ... I would wake up and be really excited to go to work. Even though we have our dream jobs, basically it doesn't always happen."
Janney plays Bonnie, Christy's passive-aggressive mother who is also struggling with her own addictions. To say the relationship is complicated is an understatement. »

Kevin Tsujihara Realigns Management of WB’s TV, Home Entertainment Units
15 May 2013 10:27 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
With a sweeping reorganization of exec responsibilities in TV and home entertainment, Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara has taken a big first step toward making the studio more attuned to the demands of new and globally oriented distribution platforms.
An overhaul of these key units has been among the top priorities for Tsujihara since he took the reins as CEO on March 1. The TV management situation demanded attention because the longtime group leader, Bruce Rosenblum, let it be known he intended to move on after being passed over for the job that went to Tsujihara. In home entertainment, Tsujihara had to fill the void left by his own ascent.

Watch: Martin Sheen Evokes Iraq War In Commencement Advice
15 May 2013 7:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Acclaimed actor Martin Sheen dished out some jokes when he gave the commencement address at La Roche College in Pennsylvania on May 4, but he didn't shy away from politics either.
Sheen is well-known for playing President Josiah Bartlet on television show "The West Wing," but during his acting career he was in feature films "The Departed," "Wall Street" and "Apocalypse Now," and voiced a character on the television show "Captain Planet," to name a few.
Sheen, 72, has a history of activism too, supporting the 1960s farm worker movement, supporting environmental causes and openly opposing the Iraq war, which he discussed in the speech.
"In the days and weeks leading up to the invasion, I spoke out repeatedly against that war at a series of nonviolent demonstrations, peace rallies and press conferences, all of which only served to isolate me to a small minority of fellow Americans," Sheen said. "Then on the feast of St. »

'Trophy Wife' trailer: Malin Akerman adjusts to married life in new ABC comedy

video platformvideo managementvideo solutionsvideo player
ABC's really hoping that you like to laugh at families this fall, as nearly all of their comedy programming revolves around some sort of family unit. Take "Trophy Wife," for example: The comedy finds star and producer Malin Akerman playing reformed party girl Kate, who's just become Pete's (Bradley Whitford, "The West Wing") third wife.
On top of adjusting to married life, Kate's got to deal with Pete's three children and two ex-wives, played by Marcia Gay Harden ("Damages") and Michaela Watkins ("Saturday Night Live"). Flighty and inexperience as she is, no one in Pete's life quite likes Kate much.
Based on the trailer, the success of this show depends on how much you like and root for Akerman as an actress, as it seems the series is going to play around with the idea that she much win everyone over, all the time. It's »

President Bartlet Resigned Ten Years Ago Today
14 May 2013 10:00 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Sunday was the twentieth anniversary of the "Donna Martin graduates!" episode of 90210. Next week marks the tenth anniversary of Rory Gilmore's high-school graduation. And today's another important graduation anniversary: Zoey Bartlet graduated from college ten years ago on The West Wing. And then she got kidnapped! And then Aaron Sorkin left the show, and nothing was ever quite the same."Commencement," the penultimate episode of Ww's fourth season, aired May 7 — and that's the one that ends with Molly the Secret Service agent getting shot and Ron Butterfield racing to tell Leo that Zoey had been abducted. But "Twenty-Five," which aired May 14, 2003, is the one that begins with Leo telling the president and First Lady. It's also the one with Toby where Toby finds out babies come with hats. Sigh. The episode ends with President Bartlet invoking the 25th Amendment and temporarily handing over power to Southern John »

The West Wing Echo on Last Night’s Mad Men
13 May 2013 11:45 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Last night's Mad Men was all about repeating the same mistakes over and over, about the patterns our lives cycle through whether we want them to or not. Is there anything new in this life? Or are we always going to be pitching Mohawk Airlines, hating our wives, resenting our mothers, mourning a Kennedy, and carrying cardboard boxes as Joan shows us to our desks? Weirdly, the clearest repetition in "Man With a Plan" wasn't from the characters themselves or even from Mad Men. It was an echo of The West Wing. While Ted Chaough pilots his own little plane, he tells Don a symbolism-laden factoid about how pilots often find themselves accidentally upside down; sometimes if you can't see where you're going, things get all mixed up, if you know what he means. And, in fact, we do know what he means because in the fourth-season West Wing episode »
