Comic Con 2015: Previewing SEX&DRUGS&ROCK&ROLL with series stars Denis Leary and Elizabeth Gillies

At San Diego Comic Con over the weekend, we had a chance to have a quick chat with Denis Leary and Elizabeth Gillies, two of the stars of FX’s fantastic new comedy series SEX&DRUGS&ROCK&ROLL, premiering tonight at 10/9c on the network (before an all new (and improved in my opinion) season premiere of MARRIED). Check out what Denis had to say about creating the show, how the Afghan Whigs (one of my favorite bands) are involved, and why Liz was

Arden Cho previews TEEN WOLF Season 5

Arden Cho plays Kira on TEEN WOLF and to get prepared for the two part season premiere (Monday and Tuesday), she and I spent some time talking about what comes next not only for her character (hint hint, more romance) but also what comes next for her, as she continues exploring the music world, engaging college students with her public speaking engagements, and finding her way in the fashion world with some friends. Read on to learn more! I am

Hawaii Five-0 Location Scouting (and Teasing Season Six) with Timmy Chinn, Part II

When we left Chinn in Part I, he was scouting for locations for Season Six of Hawaii Five-0. In the first episode of that upcoming season, Chinn teased, “They (the writers and producers) wrote the script a certain way for a certain location. We could have used that location, but it simply didn’t work, so it was rewritten from one location to another. I can’t tell you where they are, but it’s not particularly uncommon for certain initial locations not

HAWAII FIVE-0 Location Scouting with Timmy Chinn, Pt. 1

Ever scout for TV series film locations while on vacation?  I never have, but thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the tourist spots as well as off-the-grid locations of Hawaii Five-0 episodes.   Sightseeing with Chinn Timmy Chinn, Locations Manager, has quite an arsenal of stories at the ready, and I asked him to share some sites, particularly those used In Season Five.  One very well-known spot, Diamond Head Crater, has been the site

Julie Lake talks ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK Season 3

Did you, like me, stay up all night watching Season 3 of ORANGE IS THE NEW BLACK after its early release?  If so, you’re no stranger to Julie Lake, who plays the hilarious meth-head Angie Rice, who starts the season “fending off” the (completely imagined) advances of Nicky down in the basement. I spent some time chatting with Julie about what comes up this season, why she loves the show, and what she might be up to next! What can

CEDAR COVE’s Dylan Neal Unveils New Hallmark Project: GOURMET DETECTIVE

Cedar Cove’s Dylan Neal will soon be starring in his own detective movie. The Gourmet Detective, from Hallmark’s Movies and Mysteries, will be executive-produced by Neal. The Right Pitch I gave Neal a call in Vancouver to talk about this new concept and how it got started. He revealed, “It’s something that I’d pitched to the network with my wife, Becky Southwell. I’d had a conversation with Michelle Vicary (Executive VP of Hallmark Programming) during the first season of Cedar

Atticus Shaffer previews the Season 6 finale of THE MIDDLE

For 6 seasons now, THE MIDDLE has continued to be one of my favorite shows on TV, never disappointing me, sometimes making me cry, and always making me laugh at something I can absolutely relate to.  As Season 6 comes to an end tonight, and with Season 7 on the horizon, I spent time chatting with series star Atticus Shaffer about what’s next for Brick (::whoop::)!  Check it out! Congratulations!  Coming back for Season 7, Wednesdays at 8 where you

Peter Lenkov talks HAWAII FIVE-0’s Season Finale

As Hawaii Five-0 rides the wave into the Season Five sunset, I chat via email with Executive Producer Peter Lenkov to catch a glimpse of what viewers might expect as the next big cliffhanger looms. James Bond-esque Ending Though Lenkov prefers to play his cards close to the vest, he confirms with mytakeontv that Kono is in fact getting married. “But we have some major surprises in store,” he’s quick to add, “some character, some plot. What I can tell

Laura Vandervoort previews what’s coming up on BITTEN

BITTEN Season 2, while finished in Canada, is airing Friday nights on Syfy and I can’t turn away!  I’ve managed to stay spoiler free this year, and every new episodes brings something I’m not expecting.  To celebrate the US airing of the show, I spent some time chatting with Elena herself, Laura Vandervoort, about what’s different this season, what comes next, and why people should watch! Congrats on the success of the show.  The book is great, the show is
