Brett Ratner To Increase TV Output

20 December 2009 9:18 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

Variety reports that Brett Ratner signed a two year contract with 20th Century Fox TV in an effort to increase his presence on the small screen. Ratner has found previous success on television with Prison Break, whose pilot he directed. Upcoming projects under Ratner’s production shingle Rat TV include Chaos, a satirical drama with a CIA setting, The Devil and Daniel Webster, based on the short story of the same name by Stephen Vincent Benét, and The Dead Beat, a police drama.

Ratner had these choice words to say about his affinity for TV, “Storytelling is what my craft is; I don’t care about the medium. Most TV shows now are better than a lot of features. It’s a great medium to explore and experiment. I can try things that I wouldn’t try on a feature.”

Whatever your feelings on Ratner as a director, know that »

Chuck vs. The House M.D.

18 December 2009 4:00 PM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

With Chuck getting the go-ahead/green light from NBC to air at an earlier date than originally planned,  it’s looking like the show might be considered a threat to other networks.

Fox has decided to air what they’re calling an original episode of House M.D. a full two weeks earlier than anticipated.  To be more specific, Fox will be airing House M.D. at the same time that Chuck’s first episode (not premiere) is slated to air.

Chuck’s premiere is on Sunday January 10th, and then the season kicks in on its regular time slot on Monday.

 

It seems like Fox is either super insecure about some threat that Chuck represents or just plain old knows that House M.D. is going to trounce it in the ratings.

That kind of sucks for Chuck and its fans.  We’ve been struggling with the show getting traction in the »

Writers Guild Sings Praises of Glee, Modern Family and All the Other Usual Suspects

14 December 2009 12:41 PM, PST | E! Online | See recent E! Online - Movies and Television news »

Why let the movie biz hog all the glory? Smack in the middle of the self-congratulatory lovefest that is awards season, Hollywood's word-processing set has released its own would-be honorees, announcing the TV nominees for the 2010 Writers Guild of America Awards. While the usual suspect contenders—Lost, House, 30 Rock, Mad Men, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Dexter and The Office—all once again scored nominations, the networks that risked taking their programming in some New Directions (yeah, we said it) did not go unrewarded. ABC's Modern Family and Fox's Glee both scored multiple nods in their freshman year, not only as Best New Series but with a pair of nominations for top Comedy »

Family Guy Review: "Business Guy"

14 December 2009 8:27 AM, PST | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »

In this week's Family Guy, Peter assumed control of Pewterschmidt Industries when Carter suffered from a heart attack-induced coma... caused by a belated bachelor party that Peter threw for him.

"Business Guy" certainly had its share of laughs, but our biggest issue was with a major plothole in the story line.  Why would Carter not have resumed power at the company once he recovered from the coma? 

Would his lawyer have been that terrible to have written a will that gave up power when he was in a coma permanently?  For a multi-billionaire, I'd think he could hire better people.  Anyways, plot has  never really been Family Guy's strong point.

Overall, the episode was decent with only a few cutaways that failed.  Some of our favorite jokes from the episode...

Dr. House's appearance actually worked and we loved hm throwing the book of rules out the window. By the same token, »

Annie Awards Kiss The Princess and the Frog, Up and, Uh, Hugh Laurie

1 December 2009 9:15 AM, PST | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Hugh Laurie and cranky doctoring is apparently a winning combination, no matter what the genre or screen size. Need proof? Dr. House's alter ego is up for a 'toon-honoring Annie Award this year, for voicing Dr. Cockroach in DreamWorks' Monsters vs. Aliens. He'll be facing off with Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaur's John Leguizamo, Coraline comic Dawn French (both up for their voice talents), Fantastic Mr. Fox's Wes Anderson and Noah Baumbach (nominated together for their writing skills; Anderson scored a solo nod for Directing), and, it seems, anyone who had anything even remotely to do with The Princess and the Frog.

Interview: Robert Sean Leonard of Hugh Laurie’s ‘House M.D.’ on Self-Titled Episode ‘Wilson’

30 November 2009 11:44 AM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Chicago – Robert Sean Leonard, who plays Dr. James Wilson on “House M.D.” (and the best friend of Golden Globe winner Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House), describes himself as less than ambitious with his career and even “lazy” in an interview with HollywoodChicago.com’s presence. He’s also remembered for his role on “Dead Poet’s Society”.

Tonight’s self-titled episode “Wilson,” which is episode nine of season six, puts Robert Sean Leonard more in the spotlight than fans are used to seeing him. The episode, which airs on Nov. 30, 2009 at 8 p.m. Et/Pt on Fox, is an intense examination into Wilson’s world when it’s not involving House.

“House M.D.” stars Hugh Laurie, Robert Sean Leonard, Lisa Edelstein, Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison, Jesse Spencer and Olivia Wilde from creator David Shore. Tonight’s episode synopsis follows and then the Robert Sean Leonard interview follows thereafter.

'House' recap: Are people still pulling for Huddy?

24 November 2009 9:44 AM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Last night's House had a too-on-the-nose "this patient is like me" message (genius with a drug problem), a Chase story line that's increasingly difficult to care about, and a weird turning point for House and Cuddy. Not for the characters House and Cuddy, really, but for us the audience: Do we actually want these two to get together or what? Once upon a time, I rooted for this relationship, but I'm getting to a point where I don't know what it is I'd be pulling for -- and I can't tell if the show's creative team knows, either. What's here? »

Preview of 'House M.D.' 6.10: Wilson

24 November 2009 12:38 AM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »

It will be a Wilson-centric episode of "House M.D." next week. When an old friend and former patient (guest star Joshua Malina) of Wilson's exhibits paralysis in his right arm, Wilson puts himself on the case. House wagers Wilson that the patient's symptoms are attributed to new cancer cells.

Wilson accepts even though he is reluctant to believe the cancer has returned. With the help of the team, Wilson works to diagnose the patient more optimistic results, but when things take a turn for the worse, Wilson must address his inability to separate patient from friend.

Meanwhile, Cuddy seeks advice in her search for real estate. The preview teases that Cuddy is moving in with Lucas and House is "not okay" with it.

"Wilson" will air on Monday, November 30 as the last episode this year. "House" will be back on January 11 with the eleventh episode.

Exclusive Interview: Edi Gathegi (The Twilight Saga: New Moon)

21 November 2009 4:19 PM, PST | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

Edi Gathegi made quite a major impression in Twilight (2008), providing plenty of creeps as the almost-gentlemanly yet dangerous vampire, Laurent. As fans know, Laurent only makes the briefest of appearances in The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009), but it's as memorable as it is short, with Laurent bumping into Bella (Kristen Stewart) in the woods of Forks, then having a close encounter with a few of Bella's werewolf friends. PopStar snagged a few minutes of exclusive interview time with Gathegi -- who was born in Kenya, raised in Los Angeles, and counts among his credits a recurring role on House M.D. (TV) and the films Gone Baby Gone (2007) and My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009) -- just hours before New Moon's spectacular Nov. 30th debut. Read on to hear Gathegi's thoughts about the Twlight experience, his big New Moon moment, and the reality that his work on Twilight is complete. You couldn't »

Have You Been Happy with November Sweeps?

17 November 2009 11:55 PM, PST | TVStar | See recent TVStar news »

Television sweeps are the best; the writers save up all the juicy storylines and make them explode during the pivotal time for networks. Sweeps Week is so important because the data that is collected by the Nielsen Rating is used by networks to set advertising costs based on their results. Because of this, many networks pull out all the stops and this year is absolutely no different. Many of the sweeps episodes have aired and later this week we will see what else the networks have in store for us, but we want to know what you think so far! CSI Trilogy: CBS took three of their most popular shows and brought fans a multiple night CSI event spanning CSI: Miami (TV), CSI: NY (TV) and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (TV).
