Mega Buzz on Grey's, Heroes, 90210, Lost and More!

14 July 2009 7:00 PM, PDT | From TVGuide - Breaking News | See recent TVGuide.com - Breaking News news

Every week, senior editors Matt Webb Mitovich, Mickey O'Connor and Tim Molloy satisfy your need for TV scoop. Please send all questions to mega_scoop@tvguide.com. 

Is there anything to report about the new season of Grey's Anatomy? — Jenny

Matt: I know there's been talk that Season 6 might pick up a few months after the nail-biting May finale, but sources tell me that's not the case. In fact, the Sept. 24 opener will find both Izzie and disfigured George still coding — and as anyone following the headlines can tell you, T.R. Knight isn't returning to the cast. Over the two-hour premiere, watch for the outcome of this traumatic scenario to weigh heavily on a lot of people — including at least one doctor whose reaction you may have taken for granted.

Heroes' Greg Grunberg has hinted that Matt's super-powered son may not have gotten all his powers from daddy. Is Janice a hero,

Berserker – Issues #0 & 1 (Comic Reviews)

14 July 2009 1:02 AM, PDT | From Fangoria.com | See recent Fangoria news

You ever just wanna stand up at your job and flip out? Not like Jerry Maguire, where you got some awkward Tom Cruise leg movement going on that would make Elvis Presley cringe. No, more like, take a coworker or manager by the head, forcibly turn it around until it pops, and then yank it clean off the rest of the body with blood splattering all over the place? Well guess what? You’ve got a mild case of berserker in you, and only mild because you’re able to contain it. If you can’t, then start reading this book and live vicariously like me.

Berserker – Issues #0 & 1

Top Cow Comics | http://www.topcow.com | Written by Rick Loverd | Art by Jeremy Haun

A refreshing idea amongst the mature yet somewhat violent world of comics these days, Berserker sets the tone right away that this is not a comic book for children.

Panettiere Reunites With Jones?

13 July 2009 9:11 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

Heroes beauty Hayden Panettiere has sparked rumours she's rekindled her romance with British TV presenter Steve Jones after the pair was spotted cosying up during a night out with pals in Hollywood.

The sexy actress, 19, began dating Jones in May, but their love faltered after they struggled to maintain a long distance relationship.

Panettiere revealed earlier this month, "I'm single and mingling. Steve lives in London, the distance is a bit too much. I'm not dating anyone specifically and I'm not looking for a house with anyone."

But the star appears to be back in 32-year-old Jones' arms - they were snapped together at Los Angeles eaterie Firefly last week (ends10Jul09), with Panettiere even hopping onto the TV hunk's lap at one point during the night.

Heroes Star Greg Grunberg Can Save You Money

13 July 2009 8:59 AM, PDT | From TVovermind.com | See recent TVovermind.com news

You know that he piloted the ill fated Oceanic 815, and you know that he is the most morally centered character on Heroes as mindreader/pusher Matt Parkmen, but did you also know he is a total nerd?  Heroes star Greg Grunberg, along with partners August Trometer and Rick Yaeger (who do not play superheros), has released a successful new iPhone app designed to save you money.  Wow, he really is a hero!  Named “Yowza,” the app combines the Gps capabilities of the iPhone with a coupon database to give birth to a location-aware deal seeking engine.  The folks at crunchgear sat down with Grunberg last week to uncover the facts of his ‘other’ secret identity as a software developer.

“I love the iPhone, I’m a huge Mac and apple fan. About that, 9 months ago my wife and I were just complaining that we once again forgot our Bed, Bath,

‘I Love You,Beth Cooper’ Movie Brought A Crazy Hayden

12 July 2009 2:39 PM, PDT | From OnTheFlix | See recent OnTheFlix news

Hayden Panettiere that is. The NBC "Heroes" star made another film debut in "I Love You,Beth Cooper",and it really showed us Hayden's crazy side as Denis Cooverman (Paul Rust) professes his love for her in front of his entire graduation class at their ceremony,after he gets advice from his crazy best friend Rich Munsch (Jack Carpenter). He also confessed some other things that offended Beth's crazy boyfriend, a popular high school girl,and a high school bully with a complex who actually ends up crying on Denis' shoulder in the movie. It was hilarious. Beth actually thinks what Denis did was kind of cute ,and ends up giving him and his friend the night of their lives

‘I Love You, Beth Cooper’ Inspires Hatred For the High School Genre

10 July 2009 5:20 PM, PDT | From HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news

Rating: 1.0/5.0 Chicago – In what could be the worst mainstream release of the summer, “I Love You, Beth Cooper” wastes talent, production values and ultimately time in a cliché-ridden mess that produces little or no real love.

What begins as a promising premise – the nerdy high school valedictorian, Denis (played by a dull, smirking Paul Rust), breaks bad at his graduation speech and proclaims his love for unattainable cheerleader Beth Cooper (Hayden Panettiere, who also plays the cheerleader on TV’s “Heroes”) – devolves into humorless story impossibilities.

‘I Love You Beth Cooper’ opens everywhere Friday, July 10th, and stars Paul Rust, Hayden Panettiere, Jack Carpenter and Alan Ruck, directed by Chris Columbus. Check local theaters for showtimes.

NBC’s Day One Looks Like Cloverfield Meets Lost Meets Cheese

10 July 2009 7:33 AM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news

Why is it that network TV just can't seem to catch up to the cable networks like HBO, Showtime and AMC? I mean, I know there's the obvious fact that you can't do anything too edgy or risque on a major network, but it just seems like almost every primetime drama that sounds cool ends up being total crap (Lost being the obvious exception). I first started hearing things about NBC's new post-apocalyptic sci-fi series Day One at the beginning of this year, and at the time, it seemed to hold promise. The show follows survivors in the wake of a mysterious global disaster, and it is the brainchild of Jesse Alexander, who prevously worked on Alias, Heroes and Lost. Now that the first promo has arrived online, however, my expectations have been seriously diminished. Basically, they had me up until the characters started talking. Call me crazy, but I

Justin Timberlake As Green Lantern?

10 July 2009 6:30 AM, PDT | From The Flickcast | See recent The Flickcast news

A few weeks ago, blog-o-sphere guru Rick Marshall was a guest on The Flickcast, and on the show we discussed how monotonous it can be when a rumor starts and every news site and it’s mother decides to post about it. We’ve decided to feed the bottomless machine here by giving slightly more stock to the rumor that pop star Justin Timberlake screen tested and is being “seriously considered” for the role of the Green Lantern in a big screen adaptation.

The rumor comes from big, red Harry Knowles over at Ain’t it Cool News, who supposedly got the news from Leavesden Studios, the company who will be working on the film. There’s no telling if this information is legit, or just another rumor like Cher as Catwoman and Eddie Murphy as The RIddler. Either way, it seems to be a way better choice than Jack Black,

New To Theatres This Weekend: Bruno, I Love You Beth Cooper, Humpday

10 July 2009 6:03 AM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news

It's a battle between two comedies this weekend at the box office, although neither of them will probably have enough pull to beat Ice Age 3 or Transformers 2. In one corner, Sacha Baron Cohen and his latest real-world comedy Bruno, and in the other corner, Heroes star Hayden Panettiere and the teen sex comedy I Love You, Beth Cooper. In select theatres you can also find the Sundance hit Humpday, the live-action adaptation of the anime Blood: The Last Vampire, and the documentary Soul Power. Do you think Bruno will be more successful than Borat? What will you be checking out this weekend?

How Hayden Panettiere Survives the Fame Game

10 July 2009 3:30 AM, PDT | From PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news

Just because she's spent her entire life in the spotlight doesn't mean that Hayden Panettiere's life has always been so bright. "I was tortured, emotionally tortured by these girls," the star of Heroes and I Love You, Beth Cooper, 19, tells Details in its August issue about her contemporaries at school when she would return from professional gigs. "Every time I came back from filming, it would be me trying to find my way back into the clique. And they weren't having it." Panettiere started her acting career in New York before she was even 1 year old. But with the

Movie Review: I Love You Beth Cooper (2009)

10 July 2009 3:26 AM, PDT | From Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news

Paul Rust and Hayden Panettiere in I Love You Beth Cooper

Photo: 20th Century Fox I have walked out of only one movie in the six years I have been doing this job, and I Love You Beth Cooper came dangerously close to being number two. However, I am positive if I was a paying customer I would have left the theater and asked for my money back after only 15 minutes or so. This movie is downright awful and it extends beyond the stereotypical teen rom-com set-up, which would hardly be reason enough to complain. This film is an assault on your intelligence and a waste of your time. To think Chris Columbus directed it is an absolute shock, and I don't say this as a die-hard fan of Home Alone or Mrs. Doubtfire, but you would think the director of those two films, plus the first two Harry Potter features wouldn't sink this low.
