THE RED ROAD’s Allie Gonino previews what’s next!

Fresh off her turn as bubbly Laurel on ABC Family’s THE LYING GAME, Allie Gonino is back on TV, this time as part of the Sundance Channel’s newest drama series, THE RED ROAD.  The show follows a small town Sheriff (Martin Henderson) struggling to keep his family together while policing two culture-clashing communities.  Allie’s Rachel is his daughter who falls in love with a member of the rival Ramapo Mountain community! Allie and I spent some time chatting about Rachel,

Bill Lawrence riffs on UNDATEABLE and taking the show on the road

As a fan shows involving Bill Lawrence (SCRUBS, CLONE HIGH, COUGAR TOWN), when it was announced last spring at NBC up-fronts that a new show called UNDATEABLE was coming, I was predisposed to be a fan.  Add to the list of reasons to tune in: one of my favorite stand-up comics (Chris D’Elia, a favorite since the GLORY DAZE, well, days) and Briga Heelan, fresh from a great turn as Grayson’s baby-mama on CT and coming off of a killer

Max Adler talks Tank on SWITCHED AT BIRTH – “I was fascinated, so I definitely wanted to play him”

An all new episode of SWITCHED AT BIRTH heads to ABC Family tonight at 8/7c, and to celebrate the ongoing story of Bay and Tank, and how exactly he fits in among the Bay and Emmett fans, I spent some time chatting with Max Adler (GLEE).  He previewed for us what drew him to the role, if it was a conscious effort to NOT play a bully this time around, and what we can expect. I have to say –I

Lori Loughlin talks WHEN CALLS THE HEART

When Calls the Heart has been a wonderful experience for Lori Loughlin. During a recent press conference call, Loughlin talked about the Hallmark original series, her character Abigail, and the town of Coal Valley. A Sense of Community “I think what I’ve learned, and what I’ve always known in my own life, is that we need other people.  It’s hard to go it alone.  It takes a village and a support system.  And what I love about When Calls the

Quick Take: MIND GAMES aka A Whole Lot of Yelling Going On

Christian Slater is trying his hand again at episodic TV with the premiere of MIND GAMES on ABC (tonight, 10/9c, moved up a week after KILLER WOMEN bowed out ungracefully).  The show follows two brothers, Ross (Slater) and Clark (Steve Zahn, who does the majority of the yelling), partners at Edwards and Associates, an unusual business “based on the belief that people’s decisions are influenced by their environment in ways they are not aware.”  For those following along at home,

Previewing the return of PERCEPTION with Eric McCormack

Tonight on TNT, PERCEPTION returns to finish out season 2 with four all new episodes.  In the first one back, while Daniel and Kate investigate the death of a gifted baseball player, Daniel connects with the suspect, and Haley and Lewicki do their best to impress a promising new student. To celebrate the return, I spent time chatting with series star Eric McCormack about what to expect in these four, and why his portrayal of Daniel feels so authentic. I

UNDATEABLE stars D’Elia as Danny – confident, attractive, impervious to oustide opinions – who decides to help his roommate Justin (comedian Brent Morin, also on the tour) and Justin’s oddball friends solve their problems. In addition to Chris and Brent, series

Tonight on The CW, Star-Crossed episode 2 finds everyone dealing with the aftermath of the pilot, and what happens when [spoiler alert] the Atrians realize a human took down their peaceful leader.  I spent some time chatting with series star Titus Makin, Jr., about what’s coming up on the show, for his character and for the continued Human/Atrian battle! Let’s start with the easy one – the show has action, romance, and what already felt like fully formed characters that
