Television viewers don’t necessarily need more cop shows on television…but, really, if NBC wanted to make a series out of Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, and Jimmy Fallon’s “True Confessions” game, I’d watch the heck out of it.

On tonight’s episode of THE TONIGHT SHOW, the long-time friends took turns recounting stories from their past — and then the other two had the chance to try and poke holes in the tale to determine whether they were telling the truth or not. And it was glorious.

Check it out!

SCORPION nabbed a big guest star for its second season premiere: Gene Simmons!

The cast and producers announced the news at its Comic-Con panel last week, and SCORPION star Katharine McPhee (Paige) told reporters after that she herself had just learned about the casting.

But, unfortunately, she also revealed Simmons won’t be working with the entire cast.

Comments Off on ZOO Co-Creators: The Real Journey Begins With the End of Episode 3

In the first two episodes of the new CBS drama, ZOO, the show has very much been about setting up the changing landscape.

Though viewers have witnessed the abnormalities in animal behavior, they have, so far, been fairly low-key. The different breeds of animals have been doing strange things (hi, a whole lot of cats in the trees), the changes have thus far been baffling to the people in the know, versus requiring immediate action.

And while much of the action has kept the characters on separate sides of the world (Jackson/Abraham in Africa; Chloe, returning to Paris, after a near-deadly experience in Africa; while Mitch and Jamie are in Los Angeles), they will come together sooner versus later.

“It all sort of starts to come together by the end of the third episode,” ZOO co-creator Josh Appelbaum told reporters at Comic-Con. “The real journey begins; the real mission statement of the show comes at the end of the third episode.”

Check out what he and fellow co-creator Jeff Pinkner had to say about what’s to come, including the potential team-up of different animal species working together…

Comments Off on HANNIBAL, AQUARIUS Move to Saturdays

NBC is shifting AQUARIUS and HANNIBAL to Saturdays, a source has confirmed.

DATELINE THURSDAY MYSTERIES will now air Thursdays from 9-11 PM. AQUARIUS moves to Saturdays at 9 PM, while HANNIBAL will air Saturdays at 10 PM.

For HANNIBAL, the shift makes sense — the series was canceled in June. But for AQUARIUS, which was renewed a few weeks ago, the move doesn’t exactly bode well for its long-term prospects.

Wall Street Journal reporter Joe Flint first reported NBC’s move.

MASTERS OF SEX returns with a brand new season tonight, and things have changed since we last spent time with Virginia Johnson and Bill Masters.

Between the end of season 2 and the beginning of season 3, more than four years have passed, and Masters and Johnson are on the cusp of (potentially) having their research acknowledged in a massive way.

And, naturally, their relationship is as complicated as ever, as well.

I spoke with MASTERS OF SEX creator Michelle Ashford about the show’s third season, guest star Josh Charles, and more…
