Comments Off on New DANCING WITH THE STARS Cast Revealed

If you are a DANCING WITH THE STARS fan, I suppose tonight is a little like Christmas. Ok, maybe not as thrilling but I would assume there is some excitement that comes with the identities of the next  crop of dancers.

Check out who will be  twinkle-toeing all over the dance floor when DANCING WITH THE STARS returns for its new season on March 21st on ABC.

Just throwing it out there that I’m Team Macchio all the way!  Bring it, Daniel-san! Sweep the Leg(s)!

Chelsea Kane – “The Disney Dream Girl”
Chelsea Kane is a versatile young actress/musician who can be seen and heard in so many different ways these days. She currently stars in the web series The Homes on Lockerz.com. Chelsea is also the voice of Bea in Disney Channel’s hit animated comedy series Fish Hooks. She also played Stella Malone, the longtime friend and style guru to the Lucas brothers in the Disney Channel comedy series Jonas, where you may have seen her credited as Chelsea Staub.

Petra Nemcova – “The Super Model Survivor”
Born and raised in Karvina, in the Czech Republic, Petra Nemcova took the modeling world by storm after being discovered by a modeling scout on the streets of her native country. She has graced the pages and covers of magazines such as Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, Shape, Cosmopolitan, Vanity Fair and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

 

Ralph Macchio – “The Karate Kid”
He’s a successful actor, writer, director and producer. And we’ll always love Ralph Macchio for being The Karate Kid. He chopped and kicked his way to stardom in that classic crowd-pleasing flick and as well as its successors, The Karate Kid, Part II and The Karate Kid, Part III. Ralph’s extensive list of film credits includes Francis Ford Coppola’s The Outsiders and the hit comedy My Cousin Vinny. Among his multiple TV credits are: a two-season arc on ABC’s Ugly Betty, a comedic guest lead on the series Psych, as well as a guest lead on the ABC drama The Whole Truth. Ralph was also a guest star on the hit series Entourage as well as the comedy Head Case.

CASTLE Preview: ‘Countdown’

Comments Off on CASTLE Preview: ‘Countdown’

When last week’s episode of CASTLE concluded, a bomb was MIA and Beckett and Castle got locked in a freezer. Making matters even more complicated? No one knew the duo was still investigating things after Fallon (Adrian Pasdar) threw them off the case.

In “Countdown,” the pair is still trapped in the freezer — at least initially. Based on the previews — which you can peep below — things get serious for Castle and Beckett in those mighty close quarters, but they do somehow make it out in time to clash heads with Fallon and work together to save the city.

Check out a promo and five clips from tonight’s brand new episode… Read more

LOST’s Josh Holloway to Guest on COMMUNITY

Attention: fan-boys and -girls everywhere… LOST and COMMUNITY are about to collide.

According to EW.com, LOST’s Josh Holloway (who played former bad boy Sawyer) is in the final stages of closing a deal to appear on COMMUNITY for the sitcom’s two-part season finale.

If it’s anything like LOST’s finales, I suppose we should be worried for the safety of our favorite characters! From the looks of it, the episode will be part two of the epic paintball-themed “Modern Warfare” from the show’s first season.

Holloway is apparently set to emerge as a “mysterious figure who shows up on campus during another paintball game.”

You’d think Dean Pelton would have put the kabash on the students of Greendale Community College arming themselves by now, but apparently not.

Sawyer and another game of paintball all in one episode? There’s no way I’m missing this.

Will you be tuning in?

Zachary Levi Sings at the Oscars (Video)

In a moment that was surely the highlight of this year’s Academy Awards for CHUCK fans everywhere, CHUCK star Zachary Levi joined Mandy Moore on stage to perform their duet “I See the Light” from Disney’s “Tangled”.

Check out Zac and Mandy’s Oscar performance.

I’m not sure who was filled with more nervous energy, Zac or me? When it was Best Song time my heart was beating out of my chest. I knew Zach would be fantastic, the boy can sing, but I was just so excited for his performance. He killed it!

For those of you who didn’t realize that Zachary was so musically inclined, then clearly you’ve never had the pleasure of visiting the set of CHUCK. Spend a little time listening between takes and you’ll hear Zac belting out show tune, the Beatles, you name it, he sings it. More often than not, he’ll get his co-stars in on the action, too. It’s quite the musical set.

For those of you who weren’t aware of Zac’s musical inclinations, check out “Terrified”, Zac’s duet with Katherine McPhee. It’s one of my favorite songs of this year.

Congrats to Zac on your fantastic Oscar performance!

Thanks to ZacharyLeviFan.com for the video.

SUPERNATURAL: The French Mistake

February 26, 2011 by  
Filed under Supernatural

Well, that was really fun. As a long-time SPN viewer, I’ve come to expect that the sillier the premise of an episode, the more likely I’ll be lulled into laughter only to be hit with some serious heartbreak and drama. I was mentally preparing myself for something major, but it turned out to be just a really funny hour with only a hint of forward momentum for the bigger mythology.

The real mission of the week took place entirely behind the scenes, with Cas and Balthazar making a power play to claim the celestial weapons stash, their only hope of beating Raphael. To do so, they had to occupy heaven’s weapons-keeper Virgil with a wild goose chase in order to give them the time they needed to pull it off. What we saw was the goose chase, and it was a ton of fun.
