Comments Off on THE EQUALIZER Bosses on Bringing a Fresh Take to an ’80s Classic
More than 35 years after CBS debuted THE EQUALIZER series (where it ran from 1985-1989; there were also two Denzel Washington-led films in the 2010s, that were inspired by the franchise), a new version is coming to television—directly after SUPER BOWL LV.
In the drama, Robyn McCall (Queen Latifah) is a former CIA operative who returns home to her family—a teenage daughter, Delilah (Laya DeLeon Hayes), and her Aunt Vi (Lorraine Toussaint)—but finds herself drawn to helping those who are down on their luck.

Comments Off on TAKE TWO Bosses on Eddie and Sam’s New Connection
For TAKE TWO’s mismatched duo Sam (Rachel Bilson) and Eddie (Eddie Cibrian), their partnership has been a roller coaster already. Sure, former superstar Sam has enjoyed her time tagging along with P.I. Eddie, but he’s been a bit cranky about her presence.

Comments Off on TAKE TWO: Andrew Marlowe and Terri Edda Miller on Embracing their Strengths with the New ABC Procedural
Over eight seasons, CASTLE’s Castle (Nathan Fillion) and Beckett (Stana Katic) bantered, solved crimes, and eventually started a life together. Now, Andrew Marlowe and Terri Edda Miller—two of the biggest forces behind CASTLE—are back with a new romantic-dramedy to help fill the void.
In TAKE TWO (airing Thursdays at 10/9c), ABC’s newest (light) procedural, actress Sam Swift’s (Rachel Bilson) shadowing of private investigator Eddie Valetik (Eddie Cibrian) quickly leads to something more: a genuine partnership, as Sam realizes she actually enjoys this new gig.
Eddie, for his part, isn’t immediately thrilled with Sam’s presence…but he does appreciate the new business she’s bringing in. And in Thursday’s episode, “The Smoking Gun,” Sam is once again able to prove her worth, including using her acting skills to get some much needed evidence.
But what comes next? Marlowe and Miller broke down why they were drawn to do TAKE TWO, how they’re handling a will they/won’t they relationship in 2018, and why CASTLE fans may want to keep their eyes peeled on an upcoming episode…

What happens when a television star uses the skills she learned on-set in the real world? In ABC’s new drama, TAKE TWO (from CASTLE creators Terri Edda Miller and Andrew Marlowe), a disgraced actress (Rachel Bilson) teams up with a PI (Eddie Cibrian) as research for a new role. But, naturally, the duo work well together, and she may end up shadowing him longer than planned.
Sound intriguing? You won’t have to wait long to watch it! ABC announced the TAKE TWO premiere will air Thursday, June 21 at 10/9c.

CASTLE: Stana Katic to Return for Season 8

Comments Off on CASTLE: Stana Katic to Return for Season 8
CASTLE’s leading lady will officially be a part of season 8: Stana Katic (Beckett) has signed a deal to return for next year, ABC has confirmed. (Nathan Fillion (Castle) signed on for season 8 last month.)
Last night’s season finale featured Beckett at a crossroads as she had to decide whether she’d pursue becoming a captain or going down the path of a political career. By the end of the hour, she was undecided, so viewers will get some resolution to that story.
The upcoming season will feature some behind-the-scenes changes, however. As previously reported, current showrunner David Amann is stepping down, with long-time CASTLE writer Terence Paul Winter and former CASTLE writer/current THE FOLLOWING co-showrunner Alexi Hawley taking over as co-showrunners. Additionally, CASTLE creator Andrew Marlowe and executive producer Terri Edda Miller confirmed on Twitter that they’re leaving the series. (Marlowe and Miller co-wrote last night’s excellent finale.)
Update: An ABC rep has confirmed that the supporting cast has also signed on for season 8.

CASTLE: David Amann Teases the ‘Fantastic’ ‘Reckoning’
February 13, 2015 by Marisa Roffman
Filed under #1 featured, Castle
3XK/Jerry Tyson returned to the CASTLE scene in a major way with Monday’s episode, “Resurrection”: after being presumed-dead, he resurfaced (along with Dr. Nieman) long enough to claim he was another man who had surgery to look like Tyson…and for Beckett to be drugged and kidnapped, while Tyson and Nieman were at the precinct.
The second hour of the show’s nearly-annual two-parter, “Reckoning,” is perhaps even more intense than “Resurrection” (and maybe ten times as twisted), a fact CASTLE boss David Amann attributed, in part, to the team who helped bring it to life.
CASTLE: Andrew Marlowe and David Amann on Opening Up a New Mythology, Dream Guest Stars, and More

CASTLE’s sixth season ended in a way many fans didn’t expect: instead of Castle and Beckett tying the knot, he disappeared on the way to their wedding…and was presumed dead. But since the show is called CASTLE, it’s fairly safe to say the show won’t be going down that tragic path.
To get a little bit of insight into what’s to come, I sat down with CASTLE creator, Andrew Marlowe, and new showrunner, David Amann, to talk about season 7, how Castle’s absence is impacting the people who care about him most, and more…

CASTLE underwent a public changing of leadership last month, but when ABC boss Paul Lee spoke to the press today, he emphasized the transition wasn’t as big of a deal as many might have thought. And when I caught up with CASTLE creator, Andrew Marlowe, and new showrunner, David Amann, at ABC’s Television Critics Association press tour party, they echoed that the job shifts for season 7 weren’t as major as it might appear.
