The Hills: Episode 2
Posted by Kristen DeLeon Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Cable, The Hills,
Yesterday on The Hills Lauren and her roommate Heidi discovered some new drama as Heidi ditched school. Lauren seems to be getting tired of Heidi’s lack of interest in school and constant “party-girl” attitude. She just doesn’t seem like she cares about anything aside from having fun and going out to clubs. One night when they were all out, Heidi met someone from the most famous public relations firm in California and she landed an interview. Lauren seemed like she was anything but happy for her friend making the situation a bit tense. After Heidi got the job she called up Lauren to tell her about it and Lauren hung up on her during the call. It’s hard enough having to deal with all of that drama just among friends, but when it comes to roommates, an ugly situation can be even worse than it appears. Hopefully the girls will be able to work through this tough time in their friendship and learn to be supportive of each other.
Since Heidi was hired at the firm, she made the decision to drop out of school. She claimed that not everyone was meant to go to college and since she cut the first day of classes, it’s safe to say she probably fits in to this category. Will this decision to drop out of school influence Lauren in anyway? The truth is, Heidi’s choice may affect Lauren’s ability to do well in school since the “party-girl” will be interrupting her daily schedule. Hopefully this won’t mean the end of their friendship.

OurPrisoner - New Online Reality TV Show Announced
Posted by Rachel Langley Categories: Reality, Internet, News,
Looks like there truly are no limits to where reality television can go. A new series called “OurPrisoner” will be the first 24-hour live interactive Internet television reality program. The program will revolve around a 35-year-old-single man who has volunteered to give total control of his day-to-day living to Internet viewers 24/7 for six months without leaving the show?s single-family house in New Jersey. Viewers will be able to dictate to Kieran Vogel what to wear, what to eat, who he dates and a whole host of other interactive “commands”. If our imprisoned hero survives the six month “sentence” he will be awarded approximately $500,000 in prizes. The program can be viewed without charge, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, through OurPrisoner.com.

With the big season finales in our not-too-distant memories, what will TV addicts do now to fill our empty calendars? Ah, fear not, for the summer lineup will soon be upon us! One of the more promising options is Big Brother 7 (7? Has it really been 7 seasons?) – dubbed “All-Stars.” Jumping the shark, perhaps, but overall great timing for a fresh concept to spice things up.
According to the CBS site, viewers will choose which houseguests will compete in Season 7. Julie Chen will announce the top 20 contenders on June 21st at 8PM Eastern – voting will begin following the show at midnight ET/9PM Pacific, with the polls closing on June 28th. The season premiere will begin on July 6th, revealing the viewers’ selections for the final houseguests. OK, so they only give us 20 to choose from, but how cool is it to make the final cut? You know the drill from there – each week another houseguest is voted off, and at the end of the three months, the remaining houseguest wins $500,000. I don’t know if that’s worth the agony of living with some of these former “all-stars,” but it’ll be fun to watch. My choices are Kaysar, Janelle or Howie from last season – or how about devilish Dr. Will from season 2? No word yet on the 20 former houseguests we get to choose from, but we’ll keep you posted!

The Shield will live to see another season on FX. The network just ordered a seventh and final season for the cop drama.

13 episodes of Shield. For you Shield fans out there…when the cast put down their shields at the end of season seven, you’ll have watched 88 episodes.

Comedians Tom Green and Bill Maher Play A New Venue
Posted by Eric Chaloux Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, Talent, Internet, Ratings, Video,
You either like them or hate them. Now your computer can have Tom Green and Bill Maher playing all the time. The two are about to square off on the Web. Green’s show Tom Green Live debuts on June 15th at 11 pm ET/8 pm PT on ManiaTV.com. He’ll be up against Bill Maher, whose show The Amazing Fishbowl is already up and running on Thursdays on Amazon.com. Mania TV CEO Drew Massey said recently about Green’s show, “It’s much more down and dirty, more raw and authentic.” Makes you kind of wonder what we’ll see since Green will be broadcasting the show from his living room.

What I DON’T Like About Entourage
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: HBO, Entourage, Talent, Editorial,
Okay—you’re probably wondering how I could be criticizing a show that hasn’t even started its season yet… especially since I recently praised its return.
As I mentioned before, I only started watching the show during Season 2…and I think I’ve finally figured out why. If there was one thing I could do to make this stellar show even better, it would be this: CUT ADRIEN GRENIER’S HAIR!!!
For someone who’s supposed to be the central character of the show, I have always found him extremely unappealing—and extremely unattractive. I remember back to the day when he was starring as the romantic lead opposite Sabrina the Teenage Witch in Drive Me Crazy. I couldn’t for the life of me then understand why he would drive anyone crazy. (Unless, of course, they were forced to stare at his unibrow and unruly hair).
So needless to say, I still can’t figure out why he is the money maker of the show’s entourage. How could James Cameron find him appealing enough to make him the star of Aquaman? (I’m referring to an actual storyline within the show…Lord knows when James Cameron will actually direct another movie in real life). How could Mandy Moore consider leaving her fiancee to be with him? (Of course, another storyline within the show).
I was secretly praying that his coif would improve during the show’s hiatus, but when I saw the recent ads for the premiere—all my hopes were dashed. Instead of getting shorter, his hair actually grew longer. I can’t say it enough….thank gawd for Jeremy Piven.
Yesterday the second season of House started their reruns helping viewers stay connected to the show and draw in the crowd that misses the show during the season. The back-to-back episodes that will be on every Tuesday night really give House-lovers something to get excited over this summer. With the suspenseful ending to the second season it’s no wonder why the Fox network wants to keep viewers up to date. The real question is, what will happen to Dr. House next season? Will the team get to save him just like they saved Dr. Foreman earlier on? There is a lot up in the air right now. Another interesting situation is going to be if Dr. Cuddy asks House to father a child with her. She almost asked another doctor at the hospital, but since she and House have gradually gotten closer maybe he’s her next pick.
Personally, I don’t see House as the fatherly type, and he would need to be more then just a sperm donor because he and Dr. Cuddy work together. Talk about an awkward situation! It kind of makes you wonder what his answer would be if she actually did decide to ask him.
Cybill’s Coming Back and Coming Out
Posted by Eric Chaloux Categories: Prime Time, Cable, Showtime, Talent,
Cybill Shepard is coming back to television. She’ll be joining the cast of Showtime’s lesbian-themed drama The L Word. It’s the first major network show commitment for Shepherd since starring in the 1995-98 CBS comedy Cybill. Shepherd will play the president of the college where Jennifer Beals’ character attends graduate school—a married mother who suddenly begins to question her sexuality. The L Word has had some big names in the cast at one point or another during the last 3 years including Marlee Matlin, Camryn Manheim, Kelly Lynch, Rosanna Arquette, Holland Taylor, Gloria Steinem, and the late Ossie Davis. Filming for the show beings soon and the season starts in early 2007.

Hell’s Kitchen Season 2 Begins June 12 In Two Hour Kickoff
Posted by Zoe Stagg Categories: Reality, FOX, Hell’s Kitchen,
Finally, a return of the greatest reality show of all time! Gordon Ramsay, British football thug-turned-fancy chef will host the second season of this intense cooking competition. Top Chef, who? While T. C. host Katie Joel stares soullessly at contestants and drones something about “packing your knives,” Ramsay will take that knife, threaten you with it, and tell you your risotto is worse than horse manure. Now THAT’S good TV.
This season will pit men against women as contestants brave Mr. Ramsay’s…prickly demeanor and cook as if their lives depended on it. The grand prize is the title of Executive Chef at the new Red Rock Casino Resort and Spa in Las Vegas- that is, if anyone survives.
Hell’s Kitchen is Divine.
A New Daisy to Fill Out Them Dukes
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Games, NBC, Talent, Gossip,
Sorry, Kristin Cavallari. You may have dated her man, stolen her poses and copied her hairstyles…but you won’t be getting Jessica Simpson’s job as well.
The producer of the recent big-screen dud, The Dukes of Hazzard, recently announced two-head shaking things. One—that he wanted to make a prequel to the critically-despised flick. Eye roll, please. And second—that he wanted to cast Laguna Beach star Kristin Cavallari as Daisy Duke. Now anyone who has watched Kristin blossom for a complete nobody to a complete wannabe like I have knows that she has been aiming to be the next Jessica Simpson. And while I don’t really care for either one of them, I was pleased to hear that Cavallari will finally have to steal somebody else’s life. It was announced today that instead of going with another blonde, the producers finally chose a brunette (Deal or No Deal’s April Scott) to fill dark-haired Catherine Bach’s shoes….I mean, daisy dukes.
