This Week on TV (1/10-1/16)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Bravo, Cable, CBS, FOX, MTV, NBC, Desperate Housewives, Medium,
(Make sure to check out TV Envy's Programming Schedule.)
MONDAY (1/10)
- Inside the Actors Studio (Bravo, 8 P.M.): "James Lipton conducts an interview with actor and funnyman Jim Carrey, star of The Truman Show (1998), Man on the Moon (1999) and the Ace Ventura films." This would be an example of a "yes man" interviewing the Yes Man.
- Lie to Me (FOX, 8 P.M.): "When Cal (Tim Roth) is asked to determine if a mental hospital patient is being held against his will he begins to question his own sanity." When you go from Reservoir Dogs to a television series, it's natural to question yourself occasionally.
- Castle (ABC, 10 P.M.): "Castle and Beckett interview a top magician (Gilles Marini) after the owner of a magic store drowns in Houdini's legendary water torture tank." Now that's a man who can make magic happen.

First Look: James Marsden Gets Wet on Modern Family
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC, Video,
We've already seen what a fully-suited George Clooney looks like in bed with Modern Family's Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet.
In 2011, it will be James Marsden's turn to hang out with Cameron and Mitchell ... in a hot tub. From the looks on their faces, it didn't take much -- or a shirt -- to enchant the couple.
Keep an eye out for the hunky actor when the comedy returns to ABC on January 5.

Matt Dillon to Guest Star on Modern Family
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC,
Matt Dillon might have thought there was something about Mary, but at one point he thought there was something about Phil Dunphy's wife, too.
It was recently announced that the Takers star has been tapped to appear in a future episode of Modern Family. Matt will play a former boyfriend of Claire’s who has developed a friendship with her mother (actress Shelley Long).
No date has yet been announced for Dillon’s arrival.

2011 Golden Globe Nominations (TV)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Drama, Mini Series, Music, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, Cable, CBS, FOX, HBO, NBC, Showtime, TNT-HD, 30 Rock, House, The Office,
The Golden Globe contenders for the 2010-11 season were officially announced Tuesday morning in Beverly Hills by Katie Holmes, Josh Duhamel and Blair Underwood.
Last year's Best Comedy Series winner, Glee, lead all television programs with a total of five nominations. Five series -- 30 Rock, Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, The Good Wife and Mad Men -- tied for second place with three nods each.
Here are some of the notable omissions/inclusions from this year's list of nominees:
- The Good Wife was the only non-cable series to be recognized for Best Drama.
- The Walking Dead replaced that other horror series (True Blood), giving AMC two nominations in the Drama category.
- The limitations of the Best Supporting Actor category meant only two acting noms for the cast of Modern Family.
- Jennifer Love Hewitt has found herself pitted against Claire Danes ... and Dame Judi Dench.
The 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards -- hosted again by Ricky Gervais -- will air Jan. 16 on NBC.
