Mary-Kate Olsen Hospitalized
Mary-Kate Olsen, one of the most famous twins in the world, is currently in a New York hospital. Don’t get your gossip into gear yet – this time, the 21-year-old actress isn’t suffering from an eating disorder, say her reps. According to reports, Olsen has a kidney infection which put her into the ER. She is now resting and will reportedly be released in one or two days.
Despite the problems that plagued her in the past, Mary-Kate recently told reporters she has been in good health. Olsen has been working on several projects lately, including a stint on Showtime’s Weeds.

Damon Wayans Returns to TV
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, ABC,
Remember when the Wayans brothers were a force to be reckoned with? I’m not sure what Marlon, Shawn or Keenen Ivory are up to these days, but Damon is giving TV another go. And he hasn’t been away for long, seeing as his popular show My Wife and Kids, which premiered in 2001, just ended in 2005. He’s coming back to ABC and has another pilot in the works. Of course, you can expect laughs from Wayans (that’s what he does best), but there will be a little sorrow too—he plays a widower who has to look after his estranged teenage stepson. Again, he’ll be playing the dad and this show will feature multiple cameras versus the single camera comedies of late. Wayans doesn’t seem to be fading from the spotlight anytime soon—after My Wife and Kids, he also exec produced a Showtime series called The Underground. Is anyone else hoping for the In Living Color reunion? How great would it be to get the Wayans family, David Alan Grier, Jamie Foxx, Tommy Davidson and Jim Carrey together again?

Mary-Louise Parker’s Adoption News
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Award Shows, Drama, Cable, Showtime, Cable/Satellite,
It’s a girl for Mary-Louise Parker, star of Showtime’s Weeds. The actress, who has a three-year-old son, Will, with her ex Billy Crudup, just adopted a baby from Africa. If you watched the Emmys or read any of the recap info, you know that Parker didn’t win either of the two Emmys she was nominated for this year—for her portrayal as Nancy Botwin on Weeds and for a TV movie role in The Robber Bride. Parker last took home the Emmy award in 2004 for her work on HBO’s Angels in America miniseries. She and Crudup split while Parker was still pregnant with her son, but she told People magazine after his birth, “There are a lot of things I just would not attempt, but taking care of someone—I know how to do. I know how to do that, and I enjoy doing that.” Parker can currently be seen in season three of Weeds as well as opposite Brad Pitt in The Assassination of Jesse James, opening this Friday.

The 59th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards Coverage
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Animation, Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Mini Series, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, ABC, Bravo, Cable, CBS, FX, FOX, HBO, NBC, Showtime, 24, Amazing Race, The, American Idol, Daily Show, The, Dancing With The Stars, Desperate Housewives, Entourage, Extras, Family Guy, Grey’s Anatomy, Heroes, House, Lost, Medium, My Name Is Earl, Scrubs, Saturday Night Live, Survivor, The Office, The Sopranos, Top Chef,
The 59th Annual Emmy Awards has not even started, yet I’m already sensing sensing a weird vibe about tonight’s telecast. Will the show be a celebration of those young and new (e.g. Heroes)? Will it be a tribute to those bowing out (James Gandolfini and crew)? Or will performer Kanye West somehow manage to cast a controversial shadow over the rest of the ceremony?
What a difference a year makes. Twelve months ago, we were still handing out trophies to stars from Will & Grace and The West Wing (those shows feel so five-years ago now). Today, we welcome a new crop of nominees including Ugly Betty and 30 Rock for Best Comedy. Last year, we were entertained by an always-hilarious Conan O’Brien. This year, we are threatened by a song and dance number from this year’s host, Ryan Seacrest. Last August, 24 snagged the award for Best Drama. This September, it’s not even nominated (yet somehow Boston Legal is).
I think it would be safe to assume the voters would predictably (and respectfully) shower The Sopranos with honors, but I’ll still be crossing my fingers for an upset sometime tonight. We’ll need something to talk about tomorrow…
Here’s the play-by-play of tonight’s events coming to you from the neglected West Coast!

‘Tudors’ Star Breaks for Rehab
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Cable, Showtime, Cable/Satellite, Gossip, Rumors,
Rehab seems to be the way of many young stars these days. At least they’re getting help, but it seems almost “the thing to do.” The latest to hit the rehab circuit is The Tudors star Jonathan Rhys Meyers. His rep, Meredith O’Sullivan, said of Meyers decision to enter rehab, “After a non-stop succession of filming, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has entered an alcohol-treatment program. He felt a break was needed to maintain his recovery.” Indeed, he’s been busy—playing Henry VIII on Showtime’s The Tudors, as well as the miniseries Elvis. You may have also caught his pouty lips in Bend it Like Beckham, Match Point, and Mission: Impossible III. Meyers will be back filming The Tudors once he has finished his rehab program.

David Duchovny Comes to Showtime
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Cable, Showtime, Cable/Satellite,
I used to be the biggest David Duchovny fan—you know, when I could get my weekly dose of him on The X-Files. Now that he’s not on my TV every week, my adoration for him has faded slightly, but I’ve still got love for Duchov. Plus, you can always hear his voiceover work on that Pedigree commercial. His voice is so smooth. The great news is that he’ll once again be hitting the small screen, and this time it’s a comedy. Duchovny has more than his fair share of charm and wit, so I think he’ll be well-suited for a television comedy. Problem for me is that it’s on Showtime, which I don’t currently have. But, come August, when the show is expected to debut, I’ll be calling the cable company to get on board. The show is still untitled but Showtime has ordered 12 episodes. Duchovny will play a novelist raising his 13-year-old daughter and still pining for his ex-girlfriend. Co-stars include Natascha McElhone (The Truman Show) and Evan Handler (Sex and the City). Showtime President of Entertainment, Robert Greenblatt, commented that “anyone expecting Agent Mulder to resurface will be pleasantly surprised to see David create a character who is deeply flawed yet funny, complicated, and utterly human.” Definitely worth a look.
