« Jennifer Love Hewitt Is Pregnant! | Home | Kanye West Can’t Wait For His Little Princess To Arrive » June 04, 2013 04:46 PM by Donna W. Martin Recently, we learned that American Idol alum, Carrie Underwood had donated $1 million to Oklahoma relief. And now, she’s planning to lend her voice to raise even more money to help those affected by the recent tornadoes in her home state. Keep reading for more details. In the last two weeks, tornadoes have ravaged Oklahoma leaving dozens dead. And being an Oklahoma native, Underwood knows what tornado season is all about. “Tornado season is something that we’re all used to but you can never fully prepare for it.” She explains, “It takes what it wants and it knocks down what it wants and there’s nothing you can do about it except just try to be prepared.” Although Underwood has already given $1 million toward relief efforts, she wants to do even more. So according to the Associated Press, Underwood, accompanied by two dozen choir members, wil

Home > Soaps > Hollyoaks Spoilers: Sophie Austin says Lindsey Butterfield doesn’t suffer fools gladly! June 6th, 2013 by Anna Howell. Many eyebrows were raised in Hollyoaks when Dr Browning’s new nurse student turned out to not only look like his last one, but even had the same name. Fans of the award-winning Channel 4 soap will know how Lindsey Butterfield (Sophie Austin) arrived in the village recently as the fiancée of oldest Roscoe brother, Joe (Ayden Callaghan). Now, very rarely does a soap introduce someone with the same name as a current, or recently departed character so it seems pretty clear that Lindsey’s presence is set to feature heavily in the upcoming storyline which will see her name-sake, Lynsey Nolan ( Karen Hassan ) return to haunt Dr Browning ( Joseph Thompson ). The situation begins when, after tiring of Mercedes ( Jennifer Metcalfe ) Bridezilla impersonation, Dr Browning gets closer to Lindsey, who worryingly reminds him of the first Lynsey, who incidental

« Jennifer Love Hewitt & Brian Hallisay Announce Engagement | Home June 05, 2013 03:08 PM by Stephanie Gustafson It’s been an exciting week for the Cyrus family! First, former American Idol guest judge Miley released her new single We Can’t Stop . Now, Miley Cyrus’ brother is drawing attention for his debut modeling gig! It can’t be easy to live in the shadow of your older sister, but 18-year-old Braison Cyrus has long taken it in stride. Now, though, Miley Cyrus’ brother wants to be known as something other than being, well, Miley Cyrus’ brother. And it looks like his chosen path is modeling! Braison’s forays into the modeling world shouldn’t be too big of a surprise at this point, as he was already signed with Wilhemina Models as of November, 2012. But Braison’s upcoming appearance in the “Boys of Summer” issue of Troix Magazine marks his first major gig to date. In addition to offering up a come hither look for the camera, Braison answered a number of questions for the magazi

Two competitions kicked off last night, a brand-new competition and a reboot of an old favorite. Here are my quick responses to both episodes: Animal Planet’s competition Top Hooker started strong: it was a great first episode. While I’m sure fishing purists—including the ones on the show—were frustrated by the lack of actual fishing until the final challenge, the challenges the producers created were strong and interesting. It’s also well-cast, with a pretty diverse array of characters. I was distracted that the editors used music previously used by SyFy’s Face Off , and literally starting the episode with someone saying “I’m not here to make to make friends” almost lost me, but I’m in to see where this goes. Meanwhile, Food Network Star debuted its new format, and alas, it made the show a lot less interesting than last season. The mentors worked with the contestants, but as a group, and also joined in judging decisions with Bob and Susie. There was a good amount of Bob and Susie,

Home > American TV Shows > Prospect Park pulls the plug on One Life to Live, All My Children production June 6th, 2013 by Nick Barnes. Production on All My Children and One Life to Live has been halted earlier than planned over a dispute with labor. In a statement released by Prospect Park  – the production company behind the two soap operas – they said the shows would begin a long-planned hiatus, citing a dispute with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees. The statement reads: “As a result of a dispute with the IATSE, The OnLine Network is beginning a long-planned hiatus for both All My Children and One Life to Live tomorrow instead of June 17. The hiatus is scheduled to end on Aug. 12 pending resolution of this labor issue. Right now we have 40 episodes of each show ready to post through September, and if we can resolve this issue by August, we can get back into the studio on time so audiences will enjoy uninterrupted postings of their favorite shows. “W

New York public broadcasting station WNET has begun a fundraising campaign that advertises for five fake reality TV shows on fake networks—“Bad Bad Bag Boys,” “Bayou Eskimos,” “The Dillionaire,” “Knitting Wars,” and “Married to a Mime.” The imagery for the fake shows and includes this tagline: “The fact you thought this was a real show says a lot about the state of TV. Support quality programming. Join us at thirteen.org.” To summarize, instead of producing high-quality reality TV of their own, WNET and Thirteen have resorted to condescension. Nothing like living up to the stereotype of public television. Hey, WNET: You produce TV, too. In fact, you produced the very first reality show, never mind recent shows such as Colonial House . But why have you become so pathetic that you can only resort to kinda lame parodies of reality shows to get attention for your programming that no one wants to watch, except that show that comes from a commercial UK station?

At the age of eleven, on the 28th March 1983, David Walliams stood on the stage at his Surrey grammar school and made people laugh for the first time. It was a night that was to change the course of his life and a moment that was captured in one of Walliams’ most-treasured photographs. 30 years later, David wants to travel back to that day and recreate an experience that changed his life. David credits the photograph of his stage debut as Queen Henrietta Maria in a school production of All The King’s Men, as capturing a defining moment in his life. In this one-off documentary, David sets out to find the classmates who played his ladies in waiting, and to discover what’s happened to them in the 30 years since it was taken. The journey takes him to his old school as he attempts to reunite

« Kim Kardashian Upset About Bruce Jenner Accusations | Home | Jennifer Love Hewitt Is Pregnant! » June 04, 2013 01:17 PM by Stephanie Gustafson If you thought Miley Cyrus was taking a big risk by cutting off all her hair, you haven’t seen anything yet. The former Disney star and Punk’d victim recently announce the release of brand new single We Can’t Stop — and it’s already clear that this is going to be a controversial track. It’s hard to know what is happening with Miley Cyrus these days, given the all the relationship drama and changes in personal style. But we do know one thing — Miley’s latest single is no Party In The USA! Whether it’s part of the effort to shed her sweet and wholesome Disney image or, as she insists, part of showing the world who she really is, Miley has definitely managed to insert some rather controversial content into her work. Fans (or in many cases, parents of fans) have noticed the huge change in Miley’s music, heatedly voicing their thoughts via soc

Three men featured on the Discovery Channel’s Storm Chasers were among the nine people who died during Friday’s tornado in El Reno, Oklahoma. Tim Samaras, 55; his son, Paul Samaras, 24; and Carl Young, 45, all died while chasing the tornado. Tim’s brother wrote on Facebook that “They all unfortunately passed away but doing what they LOVED. Chasing Tornado’s [sic]. “ The network said in a statement on Twitter, “We’re heartbroken by the loss of [Tim Samaras], son Paul & Carl Young and all those lost in Friday’s storm in Oklahoma.” In a blog post/obituary, Discovery recounts how the men got started in storm chasing and reports that Sunday night’s special “Mile Wide Tornado: Oklahoma Disaster, at 10|9C, will be dedicated to their memory.” Another storm chaser, Doug Kiesling, told CNN, “This thing is really shaking up everyone in the chasing community. We knew this day would happen someday, but nobody would imagine that it would happen to Tim. Tim was one of the safest people to go ou

Yep, only 9 months after giving birth to her fourth child, Kash Kade, reports claim that the feisty star of The Real Housewives Of Atlanta is currently pregnant with baby number 5! Kim Zolciak gave birth to her son, Kash Kade 9 months ago, and rumor now has it that the star is pregnant again! It’s no secret that Kim Zolciak wanted more children, as she bragged about the possibility of having more after the birth of her last son, and according to US Weekly , she has gotten her wish. The site is reporting that The Real Housewives Of Atlanta star is pregnant with baby number 5, as one insider spilled the beans, adding: “Kim loves being pregnant.” But it’s not just her love of having babies that had Kim wanting another so soon.

ABC has cancelled The Glass House , the network has confirmed to me, so if you’ve been holding out hope that it’ll return this summer, it’s time to give up and let it go. Yes, my desperate plea to renew the low-rated summer competition series. The loss of the show is sad, but we’ll get through it together. The show improved on Big Brother ’s format and spawned fascinating lawsuits between CBS and the show’s producers, but ultimately had low ratings, despite being a really smart and interesting series that was worthy of renewal. So, let us mourn its death with a reprise of the cast singing “Call Me, Maybe,” one of last year’s best reality TV cold opens: View the original article here

Home > Factual > Paul O’Grady – For the Love of Dogs: Paul meets Twinkle and Buddy in another emotionally-charged instalment of the Battersea Dogs Home documentary June 6th, 2013 by Matt D. In the latest episode of his canine documentary, Paul O’Grady meets young lurcher Twinkle who was left abandoned and tied to the gates of Battersea’s Kent branch. When Twinkle is examined by head vet Shaun he realises she’s in a shocking state and is now all skin and bones. Twinkle is only alive thanks to an eagle-eyed security guard and Paul watches the CCTV footage as a man ties Twinkle to the gate during the night. Had the gates been opened, Twinkle would’ve been crushed. As Twinkle can’t be rehomed until she’s reached a healthy weight and with a potential new owner waiting in France, the pressure is on for her to put on the pounds. Thankfully Paul is on hand to teach Twinkle a few words of French in preparation for her move across the channel. Elsewhere in this episode, we meet four-mon

Home > Factual > The Alps Murders: This Channel 4 documentary goes behind the headlines and looks at the motiveless murders of the Al-Hilli family June 6th, 2013 by Matt D. When a British family from a quiet suburban village were gunned down in broad daylight while on holiday near Annecy in the French Alps, it became one of the most memorable unsolved crimes of recent memory. The investigation into the apparently motiveless killings of three members of the Al-Hilli family and French cyclist Sylvan Mollier has involved agencies from five different countries, but no arrest has yet been made. With no obvious motives behind the killings, conspiracy theories and speculation have run riot, linking the victims with religious extremism, espionage and secret services. There are rumours of secret Swiss bank accounts, inheritance disputes, French heiresses and bloody family feuds. But with no strong evidence, eight months after the killings, the investigation appears to have stalled. Thi

Home > Comedy > QI host Stephen Fry reveals his second suicide attempt was “A close thing!” June 6th, 2013 by TV Writer Lynn. It’s been revealed today that when comedian Stephen Fry attempted suicide for a second time, he very nearly managed it, and had he not been discovered in the nick of time, would’ve died. Stephen apparently made the attempt on his life by downing vodka and “pills” as he struggled to cope with his bi-polar disorder. Speaking to TV Biz, troubled Stephen explained, “It was a close run thing… “I took a huge number of pills with a large amount of vodka. “The mixture of them made my body convulse. Fortunately, the producer I was filming with at the time came into the hotel room and I was found.” Stephen, who was apparently abroad at the time of the suicide bid last year, then told how he was rushed back to Britain for treatment. The paper adds, “After keeping his latest hell secret, the former Blackadder funnyman — who is president of mental health charity MI

American Idol 8 semi-finalist Nathaniel Marshall has found a new use for his talent: gay porn. Perhaps ironically, he was eliminated from the competition during the semi-final round after singing “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)” by Meat Loaf. Nathaniel is new to porn and so far, appears in two videos as Jadyn Daniels: one called “Men Caught on Video 2” (which is distributed on multiple sites, including on Drill My Hole) and another on Extra Big Dicks. You can watch footage of his work from the latter video. In an interview with The Sword, Nathaniel explained why he made this career move: “I have always been a very sexual human being. It wasn’t until after the Idol experience that I really grew into the person I am today. I was only 19 and fresh out of high school on Idol, and from a small town. Since the show, I’ve moved around a lot and have had a lot of social growth. So, I did porn because I’ve always wanted to, and why not?! I live my life for one person and one p

« Carrie Underwood Opens ‘Blown Away’ Tour Exhibit | Home | Cassadee Pope Returns To The Voice To Perform New Single » June 05, 2013 09:53 AM by Stephanie Gustafson Sharon Osbourne left very big shoes to fill on America’s Got Talent, to the extent that NBC felt the need to replace her with not one, but two new female judges. But are Mel B and Heidi Klum capable of making up for Sharon’s absence? As with many reality talent competitions (with the possible exception of Dancing with the Stars ) the judging panel on America’s Got Talent has seen quite the shakeup in the last few years. In 2012, Howard Stern joined in, drawing both admiration and ire from the show’s dedicated viewers. A few months later, Sharon Osbourne left NBC in a huff over her son’s perceived mistreatment, leaving a spot wide open for a new judge…or two. The ensuing replacements, Mel B and Heidi Klum, were met with limited enthusiasm in the days and weeks following their announcement. Now the question remains: can th

The show was made far more enjoyable thanks to the return of the lovely Cassadee Pope. How did the crowd like Cassadee’s new single? Cassadee Pope has been incredibly busy in the several months following her victory on The Voice. And last night, America had the opportunity to see the product of all that effort. The champ returned to the reality competition to debut Wasting All These Tears, a single that is already proving incredibly successful on the charts. Even without the help of publicity garnered by last night’s performance on The Voice,  Wasting All These Tears managed to rocket up into the top ten on iTunes within hours of its release. Not bad for a singer who, as of this

CBS today announced all kinds of things about Big Brother ’s broadcast this summer, but there’s not much that’s actually new, except live feeds are moving to CBS-owned properties and Canadians are getting screwed. Canadians, who watch the CBS version of the show on Global, and others who don’t live in the United States are getting shut out of the new CBS.com live feeds. The live feeds FAQ says they “may be accessed in only the United States including Hawaii, Alaska and the Virgin Islands.” This is, of course, a blessing in disguise: those people now have their summers back. And those who want to watch will probably find a way. Already, there are instructions to circumvent the restrictions. The press release notes that full episodes will be on CBS’ iOS app, and the After Dark broadcast will be on TVGN. The live feed features it mentions—“subscriber-only web chat, four different live feeds, multiple camera angles, quad-camera view, and live stream playback - along with new features like

As a public service to TV critics who once again have to select just two reality shows to nominate for Outstanding Achievement in Reality Programming for the 2013 TCA awards, I present a list of shows that are actually outstanding and demonstrate achievement in reality, rather than, say, popularity or scriptedness (let’s please not nominate Duck Dynasty , which is more sitcom than reality). Each member of TCA can each only nominate two shows per category, so this list is small by design. I’m also including only what was, for me, truly outstanding television. A show I watched but that didn’t have a strong season or year creatively ( So You Think You Can Dance , for example) did not make the list. Others, like Top Shot , fall out of the date range. Also, I’ve suggested Survivor , but only the fall season; Philippines was exceptionally strong but it was followed by an embarrassing spring season that dragged the franchise down. This list is heavy on competitions and light on documentary-s

The Bachelorette debuted Monday, the 26th season of the franchise, and featured the usual parade of crazy people coached to do ridiculous things trying to woo someone from a previous season who the casting producers clearly hate based on the people they select as potential mates. Airing against The Voice and without Dancing with the Stars , and on a holiday, it seems even ABC’s schedulers wanted to screw with Desiree. As James Hibberd notes, the premiere “fell 27 percent this year, yet faced a serious uphill battle.” In other words, ratings were way down from last summer’s Bachelorette , but an even year-to-year comparison isn’t really possible. I didn’t watch, because I’ve grown tired of the formula and am about as interested in Desiree’s journey as I am in the journey of decomposing fingernail clippings. Of course, it’s not really about her journey to love; it’s about entertaining us along the way. The franchise’s inability to create lasting relationships isn’t news any more, but

Mike Darnell, Fox’s reality TV executive, is leaving the company after 19 years of overseeing shows from Joe Millionaire to American Idol . In a cheekily titled press release (“Mike Darnell Votes Himself Out…of Fox Broadcasting Company”), Darnell said that, while he was “offered a new long term contract … I’ve decided it’s time for a change.” Unlike nearly all press releases that announce someone’s exit with bullshit (“to pursue other opportunities”; “to spend more time with family”), this appears to be genuine. Darnell has been at Fox since 1994, when The Real World and Cops were the only reality series around, and his title was “Director of Specials.” But even then, he knew how to grab viewers’ attention. Remember Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction?, When Animals Attack!, and Breaking the Magician’s Code? The “tens of thousands of hours of television” he created and/or directed as an executive include the following shows, according to Fox’s release (hence its ALL CAPS ANNOUNCEMENT OF

But in a new interview, Carey is still bringing up the drama, so we’re starting to wonder if the pair are still not getting along… Yep, Mariah Carey is still blabbing about the feud that took place on the set of American Idol , and we can’t help but wonder if the drama is still going on. Otherwise, wouldn’t she just let it drop? While Mariah did not appreciate the threats that Minaj made, she is hopeful that the feud will not affect Idol.

I think it’s a classic, classy show and it didn’t need this.” From what we’ve all read, the pair have apparently made up since their

There are an absurd number of reality shows airing this summer, both new and returning. Many are the new cable standard: cheap and overly produced/faked, which is disappointing. But there are signs of hope, and by that I mean reality and entertainment combined. That starts with Brooklyn DA , which airs tonight on CBS but is notably produced by CBS News and the 48 Hours team. In other words, it’s a reality series not produced by CBS’ entertainment division. Meanwhile, I’m interested to see what CBS does with the hit The Great British Bake-Off , retitled as The American Baking Competition . But tomorrow night, I’ll be most excited for Top Shot . Although it’s going with an all-star format—very early in its young life, and thus it’s a little worrisome—the show has been off the air for a year, so I’m just anxious to see it again. Its production company, Pilgrim Studios, is also behind Top Hooker , the Animal Planet fishing competition (no prostitutes, alas) that I’ll definitely be watchin

Today is the 15th anniversary of the release of The Truman Show. When the film came out, in 1998, there was reality TV primarily in the form of The Real World , Road Rules , and, depending upon your definition, COPS . The film is fantastic: entertaining, dramatic, emotional, and funny, with Jim Carrey in his first dramatic role and definitely at his best. (If you haven’t seen it, watch it online or get it on DVD. Written by Andrew Niccol and directed by Peter Weir, it also features incredible performances by Laura Linney, and Noah Emmerich, who’s now getting rave reviews for his work on The Americans. What’s most remarkable to me, though, is how the film was and continues to be both incredibly prescient and relevant. The first version of Big Brother didn’t debut until the following year, and it was five years until The Joe Schmo Show ; both series are The Truman Show. Moreover, it essentially predicted—or provided a blueprint—what was to follow in all kinds of different shows and in

The Borgias has been officially cancelled by Showtime, following its third run on the network. The epic saga of The Borgias is set to come to an end, as the dramatic tale of Pope Alexander VI will not be renewed for a fourth season by Showtime. In a statement, Showtime’s entertainment president, David Nevins said: “It has been an honor to work with the great Neil Jordan and the incomparable Jeremy Irons on The Borgias. “Neil has written nearly every episode of this series himself. His extraordinary storytelling combined with Jeremy’s fascinating portrayal of the infamous Pope Alexander VI, has made for truly outstanding television that will live on.

Top Chef Masters has cast a former Top Chef finalist as one of its 13 contestants, and the masters’ sous chefs will compete in a web series that will impact the competition, giving their boss advantages or disadvantages. Bryan Voltaggio lost to his brother, Michael, on the show’s sixth season, which the brothers ruined by bickering and being far more talented than anyone else. Bryan’s casting may indicate that the series has run out of master chefs willing to compete (there are two other Masters returnees: David Burke and Sue Zemanick), or it may indicate the level of talent that the regular edition of the competition is able to draw. Meanwhile, Battle of the Sous Chefs, hosted by Hugh Acheson, “will have a direct effect on” the chefs, as Curtis Stone.

Big Brother After Dark, the nightly broadcast of the live feeds, is moving to TVGN, formerly the TV Guide Network, and being shortened to two hours. The broadcast begins June 26, the same night as the debut of the CBS broadcast. The press release calls this “a curated live feed,” which means they choose which feed we watch, which also happened on Showtime; however, since this is now cable instead of premium TV, one can probably assume it’ll be even more censored than before. TVGN President of Entertainment Brad Scwartz said in a press release, “When the sun goes down and the cameras are still rolling, some of the best reality TV moments come to life,” and he also referred to “jaw-dropping action.” Clearly, he hasn’t watched the coma-inducing After Dark broadcast in years.
