Zachary Quinto Disappointed by Heroes Movie Fate
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, NBC, Heroes, Cancellations,
Although he has a bright future ahead of him in the Star Trek movie franchise, Zachary Quinto is disappointed about one movie won’t be able to make.
Quinto, who rose to fame as Sylar in NBC’s former hit Heroes, admits he’s disappointed the series won’t be allowed one final chapter.
“It’s disappointing that there was such a lack of resolution,” Zachary told EW. “But unfortunately that’s just the nature of network television….Nothing really surprises me in terms of network and studio bureaucracy. It’s the way it goes.
“If it was in their best interest I’m sure they would have done it. And for whatever reason, they didn’t think it was. So that’s a bummer. But we have to just accept it and move on,” Quinto said.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Reality, Video,
This is something even Ryan Seacrest could learn from.
What should have been a moment of celebration for the winner of Australia’s Next Top Model turned into a moment of embarrassment for everyone involved—especially for the host.
Although Sarah Murdoch was initially told 19-year-old Kelsey Martinovich (the girl seen speaking first in the clip) had won the competition—Amanda Ware (seen in red) was the actual winner.
Cue the video to the :50 mark to witness the awkwardness kick in.

John Stamos Boycotted Glee During Season One
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, FOX, Gossip,
It’s already old news that John Stamos will be playing Emma’s love interest on Glee, a character which will be introduced to the series this week. But last year, Stamos steadfastly boycotted the musical show because of something Emma Pillsbury (Jayma Mays) once said to Will Schuster (Matthew Morrison).
During the “Acafellas” episode, Emma gives Will a pep talk about having guts. “They say it takes more certainty than talent to make a star,” she explains. “I mean, look at John Stamos.”
Burn! “I was so mad,” Stamos admitted in a recent interview. “I called the head of the studio.” His anger led him on a self-imposed Glee boycott. “Yeah, I was the only one in the world that boycotted Glee.” You’re telling us!
Now, thankfully, Stamos has gotten over the sting and agreed to guest star on 10 episodes of the series, which should leave plenty of time for him to have a sing-off with Matthew Morrison.

Lone Star: First Victim of New TV Season
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, FOX, Cancellations,
After back-to-back weeks of dismal ratings, Lone Star has finally been put to rest by FOX.
The series—which was given a prime slot post-House on Mondays—opened last week to 4.1 million and a 1.3/3 in the 18-49 demo. A second outing this week dropped even further. The drama lost 900,000 viewers and fell to a 1.0/3.
Shortly after receiving the overnight numbers, FOX made the official decision to pull the plug. Lie to Me, originally slated to return on November 10, will now fill the Monday 9 PM position as of next week.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Talk Shows, Cable, Showtime, Gossip, Ratings,
-Sister Wives pulled in a record number of voyeurs for TLC on Sunday. The reality series about a polygamist family drew in the network’s largest audience (2.3 million) for a premiere in a year.
-Dexter Morgan saw killer numbers this weekend as well. The Season 5 premiere of Dexter—which also brought in 2.3 million—was Showtime’s best opener in 15 years.
-Drummer Max Weinberg will not be joining Conan O’Brien for his new late-night talk show. Guitarist and keyboard player Jimmy Vivino will take over when Conan debuts on TBS on November 8.
-Joseph Cerniglia, who appeared on a 2007 episode of Kitchen Nightmares, was found dead in the Hudson River last week. He is now the second person connected to a Gordon Ramsay show to have committed suicide. (Hell’s Kitchen contestant Rachel Brown died in 2007.)
Glee Star Wants Justin Bieber
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Music, Prime Time, FOX, Gossip, Rumors,
Lea Michele wants Justin Bieber to appear on Glee.
The brunette beauty is excited about forthcoming celebrity cameos in the musical drama series but would love producers to approach the teenage singing sensation about a role in the show.
“I don’t know about Justin Bieber coming on the show, but he would be awesome. But I will tell you this-breaking news from Lea Michele! We have an Academy Award winner coming on Glee in the next few episodes that is not Justin Bieber.”
However, the 24-year-old actress is disappointed she won’t get the chance to get close to Javier Bardem when he makes a guest appearance: “I know the storyline and it’s not with me. Maybe I’ll be like, ‘Don’t I look like Penelope Cruz? Hey, It’s me - I’m Penelope.’”
Justin, 16, may welcome the chance to appear on the show alongside people of a similar age after recently confessing he finds life on the road can get lonely: “Lonely, yeah. I want to hang out with my friends, but I need security. I’m going to get my dog to come on the road in a couple of weeks.”
