Tina Fey to Guest Star on ‘The Simpsons’ Season 24
Never fear, ‘30 Rock‘ fans, for Tina Fey certainly won’t be out of work for long when the show begins its final season this fall on NBC. Instead, Fey will take her signature sensibilities to ‘The Simpsons,’ guesting in the already-crowed 24th season of the long-running series. But will ‘SNL‘s former funny-lady play herself a la Justin Bieber, or an original character? And blerg, when will we se
NBC Lands New Michael J. Fox Series, No Fox on FOX
Well that certainly didn’t take very long, but then again the last thing you want to do is be shaky around Michael J. Fox. Horribly bad taste aside, Michael J. Fox fans can rest easy knowing that the former ‘Family Ties’ star will officially return to TV, as NBC outbid the other major networks to land the actor’s upcoming family comedy project. Still, it took a pretty penny on the part of the p
Tony Shalhoub’s New CBS Role Is Anything But a ‘Monk’
After years and a number of Emmys earned playing obsessive-compulsive USA detective ‘Monk,’ Tony Shalhoub has his pick of the litter when it comes to new roles. Is it any wonder then, that he’d eye a return to comedy on the TV landscape’s most popular network for comedy, CBS? But who might the character actor play following the fastidious Adrian Monk, and what show would bring him back to the smal
‘The Price is Right’ to Add Male Display Models
Haven’t you ever been groggily watching ‘The Price is Right’ one morning, only to find yourself thinking, “boy, that reasonably priced set of crystal stemware would seem more obtainable if it were presented by a handsome chap, rather than this distractingly attractive gal?” Word for word, you say? Well, good news everyone! ‘The Price is Right’ is about to become equal opportunity, and you could

Palillo was reportedly found by his lifelong partner Joseph Gramm early this morning in their Beach Gardens home, before being taken to the hospital and pronounced dead.

CNN Looking To Reality TV and Late-Night Talk Shows. Oh Joy.
Understandably, all TV networks have to adapt to keep pace with a changing landscape. Just a few short years ago, we relied on The History Channel for educational programming rather than extra-terrestrial conspiracy theorists and original series, and now it seems that the notoriously stagnant CNN is looking to shake up its image in the coming years as well. Just what do they have in mind, and wh
Olympics 2012 Athlete Ryan Lochte Could Be the Next Reality TV Star
Now, there isn’t necessarily a correlation between those tuning into the 2012 Olympics, and those who watch reality TV, but it’s no secret that the more public attention one attracts the more likely people are going to try every means of capitalizing on their fame. Gold Medal-winning swimmer (and admitted pool-peer) Ryan Lochte has certainly attracted his fair share of attention outside of his ath
‘Saturday Night Live’ Doing More Election Specials
Sheesh, is it that time again? Not only do we have to choose some kind of leader of the free world over the next few months, but it seems like forever since the last time we got any fresh ‘Saturday Night Live‘ scoop. Well, wait no longer! ‘SNL’ will of course be back this fall, airing not one, but two fresh election specials chronicling the media circus of the next race! But when will the spec
