For an actress whose character was originally to appear on one episode, then evolve into a recurring role, Claire Coffee (Adalind) is riding high these days as a Grimm series star. Now in its fifth season, the series’ action-packed finale saw Adalind relinquish her Hexenbiest powers – however temporarily – to test a formula that might help Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) become fully “human” again. And Coffee, for one, couldn’t be happier as she joins NBC for a press conference to

Athena Karkanis and Yul Vazquez Talk THE LOTTERY

I recently had the opportunity to sit in on a conference call with The Lottery’s Athena Karkanis (Chief of Staff Venessa Keller) and Yul Vazquez (President Thomas Westwood), and I was quite enlightened about this series. Extinction of the Human Race? First of all, how far fetched is it to think human beings will just stop giving birth, causing the human race to near extinction?  It’s a concept Karkanis doesn’t think is far fetched at all.  “It’s really a thing

Time-Out With SIGNED, SEALED, DELIVERED star Eric Mabius

Hallmark’s Signed, Sealed, Delivered has a somewhat unique television presence these days in that its content is suitable for the entire family – a sentiment actor Eric Mabius (Oliver O’Toole) agrees with. That’s why when the network recently held a teleconference with Mabius, I knew I had to participate. A Unique Perspective “I find most shows unwatchable nowadays,” Mabius began, “short of a few comedy things. And I don’t know if that’s because I’ve changed or because I have two
