Time Out with THE MILLERS’ Nelson Franklin

Adam Miller is such a nerd, but not unlike any of the characters Nelson Franklin has played over the years – characters like Robby in New Girl and Nick in The Office. Adam vs. Robby When I talked with Franklin, he told me he thinks Adam is really a split between Robby and Nick, with Robby shouldering the most similarities. “Robby’s a really nice guy that doesn’t have any social skills, really smart, but super nerdy. He doesn’t have any

Jesse Spencer Opens Up About CHICAGO FIRE

On the heels of the news that Chicago Fire will be renewed for a third season, I had the opportunity to speak with Jesse Spencer (Lt. Matthew Casey) just before he headed out the door for a well-deserved hiatus.

Chatting with THE BLACKLIST’s Amir Arison: A Light Spot on a Dark Show

Amir Arison plays Aram Mojtabai on The Blacklist, and he’s pretty excited about his character. Perhaps it’s because Aran is lot like Arison in real life. He says, “It’s not exactly like me, but in terms of other roles that I’ve done on television shows, I would say it’s the closest to my own persona in that I’m the guy that wants to do well at work, likes to have fun, but takes his work very seriously; likes to laugh,

Daniela Ruah previews a “scary” new NCIS: LOS ANGELES: “It’s really high-energy”

Tuesday’s episode of NCIS: Los Angeles, now in its fifth season, promises a bit of excitement, to say the least, and I was recently fortunate enough to get the scoop firsthand from Daniela Ruah (Special Agent Kensi Blye).

Renee Felice Smith Brings Nell Jones to Life on NCIS: LOS ANGELES

Renee Felice Smith plays Nell Jones on NCIS: Los Angeles, but Smith recently revealed to me that the two share more differences than similarities.  Smith said, “Nell is kind of Renee times two, I guess I’d say.  Where Renee’s brave, Nell is braver.  She’s more of the take-the-bull-by-the-horns kind of gal.  She’s one of a kind.  She’s her own little brand.  I’m not as organized as she is either.  She’s super, super type A, and she’s got her act together.

Up-and-comer Mat Vairo loves playing the quintessential “bad boy,” Connor Bennett, on Revolution. When we spoke recently about his role on the futuristic series, he admitted, “I like Connor’s dark side.” Connor, the Rebel The son of Sebastian “Bass” Monroe (David Lyons), Connor has perhaps had to do a bit of growing on his own, despite being raised by his late aunt and uncle.  And, even though he’s now found his father, the two have had quite a tumultuous relationship.
