"SUPERNATURAL" CELEBRATES 1OOTH EPISODE AND THANKS THE FANS


Released by Miss TV Girl

"Supernatural" recently celebrated the filming of its 100th episode and I truly hope that this is not the last season. From the "Thank You" messages it sounds like the cast and crew may be up for more seasons. I really hope so, because Supernatural continues to get better every season and that is saying a lot when it is already such a great show.

I would like to also give the cast and crew a personal "Thank You" for continuing year after year to entertain the fans, like myself who are truly committed to the Winchester brothers and their fight to rid the world of evil.

Below is the "Thank You" video clip from the cast and crew.


HENRY WINKLER SIGNS UP FOR RECURRING ROLE ON "ROYAL PAINS"


Released by Miss TV Girl

Henry Winkler ("Happy Days," "Arrested Development") will recur in season two of "Royal Pains", as Eddie R. Lawson, the absentee father to Hank and Evan. Season one concluded with a cliffhanger after Hank learned that their father had taken the majority of HankMed's funds.

Eddie arrives unannounced in the Hamptons, determined to reinsert himself into his sons' lives and make up for lost time. But his motives are unclear at best. He will have a considerable impact on HankMed, as Hank and Evan grow divided over whether family reunions are always something to celebrate.

Royal Pains has been picked up for a 18-episode second season.

DOLLHOUSE: SERIES FINALE TONIGHT

Released by Miss TV Girl

Tonight is the series finale of “Dollhouse” and I must admit that I am very happy that this show is coming to an end.  

 “Dollhouse” was my first experience with the work of the much acclaimed Joss Whedon and honestly speaking I wasn’t impressed at all. The show had a lot of potential and room for growth, however it seemed to have lost  its way very early on and never recovered. 


 I wanted so badly to like ‘Dollhouse” and for awhile there I had a lot of hope, that  I am sad to say eventually turned to disappointment, but I hung in there determined to see it to the end.

There have been rumors that a lot of the problems with Dollhouse were due to Fox's inability to leave Whedon alone to do what he does best, write and develop wonderful well rounded characters. Whether or not Fox presumed interferance  and/or Whedon's inability to sell what some perceived as slavery and/or prostitution to the viewers  played a part in the eventual cancellation is not very clear.

The biggest problem for me, however was casting Eliza Dushku to play the lead character Echo.  Dushku’s talent is pretty much limited to tough kick ass girl, which in essence makes her quite one-dimensional in the acting arena. Therefore, when we needed to believe Echo as a mother, wife, hostage negotiator, jewel thief, backup singer, and etc, it just didn’t work due to her lack of range.

The one thing Whedon did get right was the supporting actors, who demonstrated time after time a tremendous range and believability. I would like to give special recognition to those particular actors Harry Lennix (Body Langton), Enver Gjokaj (Victor), Dichen Lachman (Sierra) and Alan Tudyk (Alpha) for being the only thing constantly good about “Dollhouse”.  I really look forward to seeing them in their future projects

  This review of Dollhouse is written without any disrespect toward Joss Whedon and I will  tune in for his next project. Why? Because I just can’t believe so many people could be wrong about Whedon being such a great talent. But if my next experience is  as bad as my “Dollhouse” one, I will just have to believe that Joss Whedon’s style of writing just isn’t my cup of tea.

The Good Wife's Julianna Margulies broke the record for most wins by an actor with her win for best actress in a drama series, her seventh overall. Michael C. Hall of Dexter was awarded best actor in a drama series. Mad Men won best ensemble in a drama series for the second year in a row and freshman show Glee snagged best ensemble in a comedy series.

Betty White looks back and ahead on her golden career

Bullock presented the lifetime achievement award to her "annoying" Proposal co-star, Betty White. White kept the crowd laughing by joking that she had slept with many of the actors in the room. (Nominee George Clooney, who guest-starred with White on Golden Girls two decades ago, thanked White for "her discretion" later in the evening.) White sincerely thanked the actors union for the honor before receiving a standing ovation from the crowd.
