Reno Collier Takes Us on a Great American Road Trip
2 July 2009 11:11 AM, PDT | From MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news
Comedian Reno Collier is about to hit the open road with a few American families in tow when Great American Road Trip
premieres on Tuesday, July 7 at 8 Pm Et on NBC. Collier recently held a conference call to discuss the new reality series he's hosting, and here's what he had to say.
What's the criteria for the family? How are the families chosen?
Reno Collier: They would make a video. They basically chose whatever they wanted to video themselves doing, as far as I know, just what I saw. So it was like, I guess, they would be at their house or they would be somewhere close to their house. They would go out, they would explain, you know, hey we're whoever their name is, where they're from, what their interests are, you know, kind of - a lot of it was they were competitive or you know, they - athletic,

‘The Amazing Race’ Star Takes ‘Wasps’ To Comics, Feature Film
16 June 2009 6:21 AM, PDT | From MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news
For most people, spending time with their grandparents consists of leisurely outings or afternoon chats. In the upcoming “The Wasps” comic book and feature film, one pilot’s quality time with grandma comes in the form of shooting down Nazi aircraft.
Based the true exploits of the women who served the United States Army Airforce during World War II, collectively known as Wasp (Women Air Service Pilots), the comic tells the story of a time-displaced Air Force pilot from modern times who ends up flying alongside his Wasp grandmother and battling Nazis in pursuit of a mysterious artifact.
Former Air Force pilot and “The Amazing Race” winner Reichen Lehmkuhl created the concept based on his real life grandmother Betty Turner Stagg, who served as a Wasp pilot during WWII.
The project, slated to arrive in stores in 2010 through Bluewater Productions, was co-written by Lehmkuhl, Bluewater president Darren G. Davis and Adam Gragg.

Reality show star launches new comic book
11 June 2009 12:50 PM, PDT | From The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news
A New comic book is being launched by American actor and reality TV star Reichen Lehmkuhl.
The 35-year-old is a former Air Force captain who moved into acting after he won the fourth series of Us reality game show The Amazing Race.
He is now penning a new action adventure comic, The Wasps, and is also set to star in a film adaptation of the story.
The Wasps is inspired by the exploits of Lehmkuhl's grandmother, Betty Turner Stagg, who was a member of Wasp (Women Airforce Service Pilots) - a group of thousands of civilian female aviators employed to fly military aircraft on non-combat missions during the Second World War, in order to free up male pilots for combat service.
The comic, to be published by Bluewater Productions next year, is a time-travel tale that follows the adventures of a modern-day Air Force pilot trapped back in 1942. The hero fights Nazis,

Sarah Chalke Feasts on Her Role in Maneater
27 May 2009 4:33 PM, PDT | From MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news
TV audiences have been enjoying Sarah Chalke's unique bedside manor in the hit TV series Scrubs for years now, and Chalke is taking on a much different character in the new mini-series Maneater, which premieres on Saturday, May 30 at 9 Pm Et on Oxygen. I was recently in on a conference call with Chalke and here's what she had to say about the new mini-series and a lot more.
I was wondering, what did you find challenging about your role?
Sarah Chalke: First of all, it was like a ridiculously fun job, we shot it in Scottsdale for nine weeks. I would say the most challenging part is she goes through such a transition over the four hours. She starts out like - she's kind of a gold-digger and she has the world by the tail, and then by the end of the four hours her life crumbles. So

CBS' Official Fall 2009 Schedule Listed
20 May 2009 8:56 PM, PDT | From Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news
In a formal presentation held on Wednesday, May 20, CBS announced its official Fall 2009 schedule. Among the highlighted ones are the pick-up of "Medium" which has been snubbed by NBC and the go-ahead on "NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service" spin-off which is titled "NCIS: Los Angeles".
CBS Studios which is behind "Medium" previously criticized NBC for canceling the show starring Patricia Arquette. "NBC's cancellation of 'Medium' is inexplicable to us," the statement said. "The ratings don't lie: 'Medium' outperforms many of NBC's renewed shows ... We believe the show has a significant future and await developments." It will be put on Fridays, sandwiched by "Ghost Whisperer" and "Numb3rs".
Meanwhile, "NCIS: Los Angeles" which was previously thought to be named "NCIS: Legend", focuses on a new batch of naval agents who have been introduced in an episode of "NCIS". LL Cool J is starring as Special Agent Sam Hanna,

2009 Upfronts: CBS
20 May 2009 10:25 AM, PDT | From CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news
In New York this morning, CBS released its schedule to advertisers. CBS had less work to do with its Fall 2009 schedule. And, comfortable atop the ratings, the Eye didn’t mess around with what wasn’t broken.
The big news was that the network has picked up Medium, which was cancelled by NBC just yesterday. Produced by sister company CBC Television Studios, it was a simple decision for the broadcast network to pick up the supernatural series that stars Patricia Arquette.
As expected, and as is logical, Medium will be paired with the thematically-similar Ghost Whisperer on Friday nights.
Other than that, CBS’s fall schedule is largely business as usual, anchored by sitcoms and procedurals.
The only new comedy, Accidentally on Purpose brings Jenna Elfman back to your television as a movie critic who gets pregnant. Accidentally, of course. It will air in the Monday comedy block between How I Met Your Mother

2009 CBS Fall TV Line Up: No ‘Eleventh Hour’
20 May 2009 9:20 AM, PDT | From ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news
With the CBS 2009 season, we have a few favorites coming back, a show that changed networks and night and a huge gamble that paid out less than the California lottery.
The shows that got the digital advertisers ax were Eleventh Hour, Harper’s Island, The Unit, Without a Trace and Worst Week.
I’m bummed The Unit was cut and surprised by Harper’s Island lack of viewers. Harper’s was well written compared to some but I guess viewers just don’t have the patience for murder-mystery dramas. I have to admit, my first reaction was flat to the idea but I gave it a chance, got hooked and now, got disappointed. Grr.
One of the most expensive television shows ever produced, Eleventh Hour, apparently was just as flat as I felt it was when I watched the first few episodes. It never snagged me and seemed what I

CBS Renews ‘Cold Case,’ Picks Up ‘Medium,’ Cancels ‘Without a Trace’
20 May 2009 7:55 AM, PDT | From HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news
Chicago – In a relatively shocking announcement as a part of fall schedule upfronts this week, CBS actually pulled the trigger on “Without a Trace,” a show that had reportedly gotten too expensive for the network. There were rumors that they may do the same with “Cold Case,” but that show will return with on-the-bubble shows “The New Adventures of Old Christine” and “Rules of Engagement” also being miraculously renewed and “Medium” being saved.
This Fall CBS adds the popular drama series Medium, starring Patricia Arquette, Fridays (9:00-10:00 Pm, Et/Pt), forming a hauntingly compatible two-hour block with Ghost Whisperer at 8:00 Pm.

Interview with Margie and Luke from "The Amazing Race"
11 May 2009 6:33 PM, PDT | From AfterElton.com | See recent AfterElton.com news
Luke and Margie Adams
It was the gayest season ever of The Amazing Race, and also one of the best ever. Coincidence? I don't think so. There was father and son Mel and Mike White, who are both gay; sisters Kisha and Jen, (Kisha is a lesbian); one person who apparently isn't out of the closet; and, finally, Luke Adams and his mom Margie.
Luke and Margie were the only team with a gay member to make it to the final three, and while they didn't quite make it over the finish line first, they ran an impressive race — especially considering Luke is deaf, a potential drawback in a race where quick communication can be vital.
While the show never identified Luke as gay, this 24-year-old Coloradan is out and proud — and especially proud of the fact that he's the youngest gay man to ever make it to the final three.
