DirecTV has been cooking up a unique recipe for a TV series. Full Circle, from playwright Neil Labute, is a fascinating experiment in storytelling. It features 11 people whose lives intertwine through out the show’s 10 episodes. The cast includes some pretty big names – I guarantee you’ll recognize more than a few. Boreanaz (Bones), Kate Walsh (Private Practice) and Minka Kelly (Friday Night Lights) are among the recently announced all-star ensemble cast. I was iffy on the concept behind Full Circle when I first heard about it, but now that I’ve seen the kind of talent the project has attractive, I feel like I have no choice but to check this out when it premieres.
The remaining cast members include Tom Felton (Harry Potter), Billy Campbell (The Killing), Julian McMahon (Nip/Tuck), Keke Palmer (Akeelah and the Bee), Devon Gearhart (The Wait), Noah Silver (The Borgias), Ally Sheedy (Welcome to the Rileys »

DirecTV's recently announced 10-episode original series "Full Circle" will be the television debut of filmmaker and playwright Neil Labute, so it comes as no surprise that the project has netted an impressive, star-filled cast. Making it a little easier is the fact that the half-hour drama is essentially an anthology series. Based on the play "La Ronde," each episode will feature two characters, with one carrying over to the next installment to be paired with someone new until the show comes back around to one of the first people to appear -- a light commitment for an actor. Set to star in the series are Tom Felton ("Harry Potter"), Minka Kelly ("Friday Night Lights"), Julian McMahon ("Nip/Tuck"), David Boreanaz ("Bones"), Keke Palmer ("Akeelah and the Bee"), Devon Gearhart ("The Wait"), Billy Campbell ("The Killing"), Kate Walsh ("Private Practice"), Noah Silver ("The Borgias"), Ally Sheedy ("Welcome to the Rileys"), Cheyenne Jackson »

This Monday, A&E's sun and sin-soaked The Glades kicks off its fourth season and star Jordan Wall (who plays the overzealous Daniel Green) assembled an exclusive playlist for ETonline!
Although the show's setting plays host to a whole lotta murders, in reality, we still dream of visiting Florida's Glades!
Jordan Wall's Gotta Getaway Playlist
1. When I Come Around - Green Day
Favorite song by my favorite band. It was the first music video I ever saw, really welcoming me into the whole MTV generation. The repetitive riff in the track is so simple, yet so intoxicating, reeling you right in within the opening seconds.
2. Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in My Hand - Primitive Radio Gods
The perfect blend of melody and lyric, which never fails to affect me on some level no matter how many times I listen to it. It is the ultimate example of music and poetry being linked »

Directed by: Lee Daniels
Starring: Forest Whitaker, Oprah Winfrey, James Marsden
Rating: Not Yet Rated
Release Date: October 18, 2013
Trailer Score: 5/10
Thoughts by Tsr: Between the anvilicious line about there being no tolerance for politics at the White House and Forest Whitaker playing a young, bright-eyed butler, this trailer had me chuckling within 20 seconds. They are trying to sell this as an incredibly inspirational story that deserves All The Oscars (an Oprah nomination wouldn’t surprise me), but it just looks so delightfully silly. That doesn’t mean Lee Daniels is shying away from serious topics, though. The horrors of racism are certainly on display, never more so than when a Ku Klux Klan member hurls a molotov cocktail at a bus in Birmingham. Wacky Presidential mimicry and horrific depictions of racial violence. Bless you, Lee Daniels.

The Season 1 finale of Bates Motel last night on A&E got 2.7 million viewers with 1.5 million among adults 18-49 and 1.4 million among adults 25-54. That’s up 15% in the 18-49 demo from last week’s show and up 8% in total viewers and among Adults 25-54. The finale was down from the show’s March 18 premiere that was the most-watched original drama in the demos in A&E’s history. The debut of the Psycho prequel garnered 3 million total viewers and 1.599 million viewers among adults 18-49 and 1.633 million viewers among adults 25-54. Those numbers made it a no-brainer that A&E announced on April 8 that it had renewed Bates Motel for a 10-episode second season to air in 2014. Overall, Bates Motel averaged 2.7 million viewers in its first season with 1.5 million in both the 18-49 and 25-54 demos. Those results are the best any A&E drama has performed in the demos. »

Julie Taylor is all grown up! Aimee Teegarden, who famously portrayed Coach Taylor's teenage daughter on Friday Night Lights, has completely transformed. Now there's a lot going on with her new look, so let's break down the big changes: News: Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder reunite at CW Upfronts Gone are her signature blunt bangs and locks.

The CW is holding both "Star-Crossed" and "The 100" in reserve for mid-season duty, but during the recent TV Upfronts they released a few photos from each show's pilot, and we have a look at them all right here.
Both series have a sci-fi tinge, but "The 100" especially, with its post-apocalyptic setting and the presence of Henry Ian Cusick (“Lost,” “Scandal”), has our attention for sure. And while "Star-Crossed" definitely seems to appeal to the more romantic types among us, it has a lot of familiar faces and could be worth watching for one or two episodes at least.
So while you're here, check out the photos below (top row from "The 100" and bottom from "Star-Crossed"). For more info visit "The 100" and "Star-Crossed" on Cwtv.com, and follow "The 100" (@cwthe100) and "Star-Crossed" (@CWStarCrossed) on Twitter.

Robin Williams’ biggest commitment to series television since the days of “Mork & Mindy” highlights a 20th TV slate that is deep, even if not necessarily brimming with international star appeal.
Williams is teaming with another recognizable face, Sarah Michelle Gellar, in the single-cam, father-daughter workplace comedy “The Crazy Ones,” from the pen of a scribe with no small amount of global cachet himself: David E. Kelley.
Kelley’s star Stateside hasn’t shined quite as brightly of late — “Harry’s Law” (NBC) lasted only two seasons, while “Monday Mornings” (TNT) didn’t make it past one, and half-hour isn’t exactly where the “Picket Fences” and “Ally McBeal” creator made his bones, but a series starring Williams in an accessible setting is filled with worldwide potential.
A slam dunk for interest is the limited-series return of Kiefer Sutherland in “24: Live Another Day.” The condensed format »

Two years ago, Peter Berg (Battleship, Hancock) confirmed that a new movie based on his "Friday Night Lights" TV series, which ended after five seasons, was in active development. The plan was to begin filming in 2012, but that never happened. Then two months ago, Adrianne Palicki (GI Joe: Retaliation) revealed that there are talks of raising money for a "Friday Night Lights" movie through KickStarter in hopes of duplicating the results of "Veronica Mars." And now, producer Brian Grazer confirmed that "Friday Night Lights" is in the works and that KickStarter will likely be used. The film would be made through Grazer's Imagine Entertainment company, which is co-owned by director Ron Howard. This once again raises the question of whether multi-millionaires should be asking fans to pay for films that these millionaires will profit from. »

As a fan of the hit NBC series Friday Night Lights, I'd love to see a movie get made. Producer Brian Grazer recently did an interview in which he confirmed that they are "absolutely moving forward" on a Friday Night Lights movie.
We made a terrific feature with Pete Berg, turned it into a terrific TV series and will now make a movie from that series. I’m not sure such a thing has been done before.
He then went on to say that they might look into crowdfunding to help get financing for the film. Deadline reports, "they will likely use crowdfunding to directly tap the rabid fan base of that drama for some of the budget."
Berg, who wrote and directed the original 2004 movie and developed the TV show, has been trying to get this film off the ground for some time now. I guess it's at the »

After unearthing and polishing up that precious Oldboy resource that was just lying there, Spike Lee will next cash in with Gold, following in the footsteps of so many of today’s savviest investors who have mailed in their broken and unwanted jewelry to become millionaires. The project, originally attached to director Michael Mann, hails from Friday Night Lights writer-producers Patrick Massett and John Zinman, and was once described as a modern-day Treasure Of The Sierra Madre-style adventure. Now it’s being more accurately described as based on the 1993 Bre-x Mineral Corporation mining scandal, and The Wrap says »

Texas forever! It's been two years since Friday Night Lights took its final bow, and, boy, has a lot changed since then. For one thing, Aimee Teegarden, who played the football coach's moody blonde teenage daughter, Julie Taylor, is now brunette, her trademark bangs no longer framing her cherubic face. And costar Scott Porter, who played Jason Street, the star quarterback who becomes paralyzed during a game, is now married and on a new show, CW's The Hart of Dixie. The two former costars reunited on Thursday, [...] »
