Unforgettable! That one word best describes the evening I had last week, attending the Hart to Hart Reunion at the Paley Center for Media. As I drove home after the event, one song that aired on the radio during my drive was “Unforgettable” – the duet version by the late (great) Nat King Cole and his daughter Natalie Cole. As …

I’m on a bit of a Nikita kick this week, so I thought we’d go with a double dose of spoilers for the next two episodes as the conspiracy grows. Nikita Next week, when an assassination carried out by Division is credited to the CIA on national television, the Deputy Director sends Ryan, one of his best and brightest, to …

It’s been a busy week in TV land, but we’re here to help in case you missed some news or features. Take a look at what our TV blogger friends have been up to this week. Curt at Show Patrol has a report from the set of the new series The Chicago Code. Chicago native Nice Girl Bethanne should be …

Supernatural – the CW 9/8c “All Dogs Go To Heaven” – Dean (Jensen Ackles) and Sam (Jared Padalecki) investigate what seems to be a werewolf killing but turns out to be a skinwalker (guest star Andrew Rothenberg) posing as a family dog who is taking revenge on his owner’s enemies. After capturing the dog, he turns human and tells Sam …

British breakout Cee Lo Green is a current obsession of mine. The first single from his new album, “F*** You”, is so catchy that even a non-swearer like me can’t help but belt it out. When I heard that it would be featured on Glee, and by none other than Oscar-winning guest star Gwyneth Paltrow, I wondered how that would …

Bones – FOX 8/7c “The Shallow in the Deep” – The past and present collide when human remains from a 150-year-old slave ship, the Amelia Rose, surface. The team is tasked to give the deceased a proper burial but make an unforeseen discovery linked to a recent murder. In the course of the investigation, Booth and Brennan are led to …

In honor of Veterans Day, the following list was compiled to salute the top television series that focused on wartime, ranging from World War II through to the Vietnam War and beyond. Rather than rank the shows in any specific order, though, they are simply presented in alphabetical order: China Beach (1988 to 1991) – Set during the tumultuous time …

When it was announced earlier in the week that Goran Visnjic was going to play a villain on Leverage, I knew instantly who this week’s Nice Boy was going to be. More popularly known as Dr. Luka Kovač on ER, Visnjic is also pretty darn good at playing the baddie. Not only was he the abusive ex to Nicole Kidman’s …

As I was trying to come up with this list of fictional veterans on TV, I was struck at how differently veterans are portrayed on television today even compared to a few years ago. Crotchety veterans have been a staple of sitcoms (think Red Foreman from That ’70s Show, Marty Crane on Frasier, Dr. Kelso on Scrubs) and even dramas …

Veterans Day is the day we honor our country’s servicemen for defending our shores and doing their part to make home a safe place to be. Often sacrificing their time with family, their limbs, even their lives, these men and women are true heroes to us. Originally initiated to honor World War I vets, Alfred King from Emporia, Kansas, came …
