Katherine Heigl Taking Break from Grey’s Anatomy

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Grey’s Anatomy, Gossip, Spoilers,

As we all know by know, T.R. Knight will not survive to see another season of Grey’s Anatomy while Katherine Heigl will. But that doesn’t mean the Ugly Truth actress won’t get a nice break from her awful 17-hour work days.
Although she was forced to stick by her contract (we all know she so wants to leave), Heigl is being granted a 5-episode leave from the series. Why? Because she needs to continue working on her big screen career. During her absence, Katherine will be busy filming Life as We Know It with Josh Duhamel (Las Vegas).
Heigl’s (temporary) departure will be explained on the show. You can see a promo for the upcoming season after the jump.

Getting Into Character: Zac Efron on Entourage

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, HBO, Entourage, Spoilers,

If there’s anything we’ve learned from Zac Efron’s appearance on Saturday Night Live, it’s that he’s very good at playing himself.
In this picture from Entourage, the High School Musical star once again gives us a glimpse of what it’s like to be…Efron. (Apparently he likes to shop at at Niketown.) But how will he figure into the plot? According to a description for the show, Ari “will steal” the High School Musical star from Adam Davies.
Efron will make his cameo on September 13.

Melrose Place to Resurrect - Then Kill - Sydney

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Spoilers,

Original Melrose Place viewers got quite a shock in 1997 when Sydney Andrews (Laura Leighton) was tragically killed on her wedding day. But viewers of the new series will see her brought back from the grave…only to return to that same grave shortly into the first episode.
Sydney will be found floating in the pool just after she’s brought back to life. It’s the sort of thing that could only happen at Melrose Place.
“It will feel nostalgic, but it’s not the old Melrose,” said Todd Slavkin, one of the show’s writers. “Sydney’s death in the first 10 minutes…means anything could happen.”

Evan Rachel Wood Spills True Blood

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, HBO, Gossip, Spoilers,
Across the Universe starlet Evan Rachel Wood is shaking things up over in Bon Temps on HBO’s hit series, True Blood (not that it needs any more shaking up), and she can’t wait to drop some hints!
While Wood is no stranger to television, there is no doubt that this will be her sexiest character yet. Of her 1,100 year-old Queen Sophie-Anne, Wood explains, “She’s not necessarily a lesbian. Her human partner is a girl, but I’m pretty sure she goes both ways [laughs]. I think vampires are like that in general.”
Though she didn’t divulge a name when asked about Bill and Eric, she confirms that she’ll be having a “steamy” scene with someone whom we wouldn’t expect.
Coming from someone who nabbed a guest starring role because she herself is a fan, Rachel couldn’t believe what was in store for the last two episodes…

The ladies of Wisteria Lane are back for season six of Desperate Housewives, channeling women of the Amazon in their latest promotional ads.

What You Can Expect from the new Melrose Place

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Spoilers,
Moving into Melrose Place on September 8? If you do, get ready for hot sex scenes, delicious drama and familiar faces. At a recent Q&A, execs for the show revealed just enough juicy details to make TV viewers long for the end of summer.
For lovers of the original, Daphne Zuniga and Josie Bissett will both reprise their former Melrose roles - but don’t expect to see the same old stories. “Jane will not be victimized anymore,” this according to someone in-the-know. The new landlord of the complex will be another “familiar face,” which will be revealed in the fourth episode. Am I the only one who thinks Heather Locklear would be fantastic for the job?
The Place is also open for crossover possibilities. Being near the 90210 zip, it’s possible a little co-show action could result with cast members from one or the other. Imagine Jane (Bissett) becoming friends with Debbie Wilson (Lori Loughlin).

Sneak Listen: Controversial Family Guy Abortion Episode

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Animation, Comedy, Prime Time, FOX, Family Guy, DVD, Gossip, Spoilers, Video,
The Family Guy cast gathered recently for a live table read of the upcoming abortion issue, which has already made headlines in the media. So, did FOX’s animated prime time comedy tread very carefully around this hot-button issue? If you’ve got to ask, you just aren’t familiar with the show.
The episode, “Partial Terms of Endearment,” features a plot in which Lois Griffin (wife to title character Peter) becomes a surrogate mother for two friends. The couple goes on to die in a car accident, leaving Lois to ponder of the mysteries of life and possible abortion for the fetus she’s carrying. This story installment wouldn’t be dubbed “the abortion episode” if it didn’t feature Lois at least considering all her options.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Spoilers, Video,
The season finale of 90210 left a few things a little unclear. Annie (Shenae Grimes) found herself driving, at some stage of drunkenness, early in the morning. The last moment of the explosive finale showed her getting into a vehicular collision and driving away, leaving what looked very much like a dead body behind her.
Gossip has it that it will be revealed that Annie actually killed a person, and Zachary Ray Sherman of Fifteen and Pregnant has been hired to play the nephew of the man hit by the car.
