Tonight on ABC, don’t miss the series premiere of EXTREME MAKEOVER: WEIGHT LOSS EDITION, executive produced by JD Roth, Todd A Nelson, and Matt Assmus (MASTER CHEF, THE BIGGEST LOSER, among others).  From ABC, the show is “a unique, non-competitive show about weight loss – unlike anything seen before on television – “Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition” will document the amazing makeover of eight courageous, “super obese” people who, in an unprecedented 365 days, set out to safely lose half

BODY OF PROOF Season finale preview with Nicholas Bishop

BODY OF PROOF has slowly worked its way onto my must watch list this spring and I’m so glad that tonight’s finale is of the season (not series) variety.  To celebrate the end to a great first season, I had the chance to talk to Nicholas Bishop about what brought him on to the show, what happens in tonight’s finale, where the Megan/Peter relationship is going to go, and just how hard it is to hide his (lovely) native accent.

Previewing the BODY OF PROOF finale with Windell D Middlebrooks

I had the chance to chat with the fantastic Windell D Middlebrooks who talked about his first series regular role, as a part of the ensemble on ABC’s BODY OF PROOF, which airs its first Season Finale tonight at 10/9c.  The good news is that the show will be back for a second season, starting in the fall! Check out the video, and be sure to tune in tonight for the all new episode – let us know what you

Talking more OUTSOURCED with Rizwan Manji and Aneesh Sheth

In honor of what may have been the series finale of OUTSOURCED last night, let me quote my favorite Rajiv moment from the episode: Todd: What can I do to help? Rajiv: Do you know where the gift table is? Todd: Yes. Rajiv: Good. Go to it and see if someone gave us a time machine. Todd: I get it. And then set it to before the bachelor party? Rajiv: No. You must go back much further. Go back to

A Conversation with Rizwan Manji and Aneesh Sheth from OUTSOURCED

As luck would have it, Rizwan Manji was on my flight home from Dallas, and I met him in the SFO baggage claim. No, really, sometimes these things just happen to me. He invited me to attend the event he had flown in for, a talk with Sanskriti, the South Asian student organization at Stanford University. The talk was moderated by member Elahe Popat, who focused the discussion on his experiences as a South Asian actor. Manji began by recapping

Talking HAPPY ENDINGS with Eliza Coupe and Damon Wayans, Jr.

One of the best things to happen to the spring TV landscape has been the arrival of my new favorite group of people on ABC’s HAPPY ENDINGS.  The show about a couple who breaks up at the wedding, and the group of friends that support them, has two incredible new episodes tonight.  If the first episode, Jane and Brad (Coupe and Wayans) try to find some married couple friends; in the second, Max needs to face his parents with some

Talking EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION with designer Leigh Anne Tuohy

You  may recognize Leigh Anne Tuohy as the woman behind Sandra Bullock’s Oscar award winning role in “The Blind Side” (hint: she’s the real life inspiration for the story about a family who takes in a young man destined to be a football star).  I know her from her current stint as one of the members of Ty’s team on EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION, which returns to ABC tonight after too long an absence.  For whatever reason you recognize her,

My Take Too: Anisha Nagarajan talks OUTSOURCED

Sometimes Amrie sets aside HER take on TV to let someone else have a go. Sunil is just such a someone else. Formerly of RTVW Online and Mars Investigations, he has multiple Comic-Cons under his belt and is happy to share his love of television with anyone who will listen. Last month, I attended the San Francisco Asian American Film Festival’s panel on Breakout Female Comedians, featuring Anisha Nagarajan, who plays scene-stealer Madhuri on OUTSOURCED. She regaled us with tales

Elisha Cuthbert and David Caspe talk HAPPY ENDINGS

I had the chance this week to listen in on a conference call with series creator David Caspe and series star Elisha Cuthbert from ABC’s all new (hilarious) comedy HAPPY ENDINGS, premiering tonight at 9:30/8:30c and they had so many great things to say about what’s to come and where the show ideas came from – check it out, and I’ll be back later today with an actual review of the show, and why I think YOU ALL should watch!

Sara Rue and Barry Watson talk MY FUTURE BOYFRIEND

Tonight on ABC Family, fall in love with the adorable made-for-TV movie MY FUTURE BOYFRIEND.  Sara Rue stars as Elizabeth Barrett, a writer whose first book has just been published.  When an archeological dig in the year 3127 reveals a copy of Elizabeth’s first novel, explorer P-A-X-497/341 (Pax, played by the ever-charming Barry Watson) decides to head back to 2011 to understand the concept of love: a concept that no longer exists in his perfect utopian future.  He meets Elizabeth
