Wow. This online game is truly amazing. The designer must be the ultimate TV fan of all time. You think of a television character, then answer a series of ‘yes and no’ questions. Then the computer guesses which character you are! I know; I was skeptical, too, but it worked every time, and didn’t take very long for the computer to guess. I chose obscure/outdated characters—Blair Warner, Punky Brewster, and Laura Ingalls—and it guessed each time! It would be creepy if it weren’t so fun. Follow the link to play.

Finally! The beloved comedy is coming back on Tuesday, January 3rd. The NBC smash hit has been sorely missed, and viewers are thrilled with its return. Never before has “mid-season premiere” sounded so good. If that weren’t exciting enough, rumors abound that this season will be even wilder and wackier, with all sorts of new developments and top-notch guest stars, including Mandy Moore and Jason Bateman.
When “Scrubs” returns for its fifth season on Tuesday, Jan. 3, viewers are going to see a slightly different show. Unlike series where people stay in high school for 12 years, the characters on “Scrubs” are getting on with their lives. For example, Turk and Carla finally are going to live alone, as a married couple should. J.D. and Elliot live together, not with any sexual tension but as friends, so the show can explore how close you can get to someone of the opposite sex. And the young doctors are now going to become teachers and leave the student role behind.
“I think this fifth season is even more amped up than it ever was because there was a little bit of the attitude, ‘Who knows if anybody will see this, so let’s have fun,’” says Zach. “We wrote and acted what we thought was funny, so we are pretty excited about the season.”

Posted by Rhys Alexander Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Desperate Housewives,
Desperate Housewives premiered this week in China. The show will be dubbed in Mandarin and will air three episodes in a row each night, with the entire first season complete in a week. No waiting a week between episodes translates into lucky viewers. Reportedly, the show has been “cleaned up” to better fit in with the new viewers’ expectations. Will the show be a mega-hit in its new country? Only time will tell. Hmm…I wonder how you say ‘oversexed neurotic’ in Mandarin?

Wow. I knew the entertainment business was fickle, but this is extreme. Fox will soon air the series Becoming Glen, which stars Johnny Galecki of Roseanne fame in the title role. Becoming Glen is the brainchild of Family Guy geniuses Seth McFarlane and Ricky Blitt, and therefore should be hilarious. Apparently, the show is about a successful 40-something guy narrating and looking back on his life when he was in his early 30’s, living under his parents roof. The catch? The pilot was shot four years ago. Fox is just now giving the go-ahead to the stunted series, beating out CBS and NBC for right to the show.

A New Sex and The City? Lipstick Jungle Hits The Small Screen
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, NBC,
Have you already exhausted all the DVDs in your six-season Sex and the City collection? Have you tossed and turned at night wondering what could have happened if Kim Cattrall had agreed to star in the movie version? Do you still secretly hope that she will change her mind?
Well - we have no new information to offer on the SATC front (BTW—Charlotte would have unexpectedly become pregnant in the proposed movie,) but there may still be a chance for you to enjoy the characters of Candance Bushnell’s world. The author has just signed a deal with the Peacock network to bring her recent novel, Lipstick Jungle, to the small screen as a sitcom. Bushnell says the book is about “women trying to become their own Mr. Big.” A female Mr. Big? That would be an interesting turn of events. Let’s drink a cosmopolitan to that!
