Actor Stephen Bishop Teases “Being Mary Jane,” Season 3

October 16, 2015 Kellie Freeze

At the end of last season of BET’s drama, Being Mary Jane, our favorite news anchor suffered a devastating car accident after she learned that her BFF Lisa (Latarsha Rose) and her on-again, off-again ex-boyfriend David (Stephen Bishop) had been intimate. The dramatic episode, “Signing Off” left fans with gaping mouths and questions galore. Ahead of the two-hour Season 3 premiere, I went right to the scoundrel source of info, actor Stephen Bishop. I begged Bishop for details, since I’ve known his brother — a successful attorney —for many years, and was hoping for some inside scoop. But based, on his answers, Bishop’s […]

After an almost three-and-a-half-year hiatus, the rough and tough lawman returns to Hallmark Channel on Sunday, Oct. 18 (and Hallmark Movies & Mysteries on Oct. 25), and for cowriter and series star Tom Selleck, “It’s been way too long!” In Jesse Stone: Lost in Paradise, the ninth film in the franchise based on the books by the late author Robert B.

October 15, 2015 Kellie Freeze

For the first time since he was the epitome of 1990s cool in Saved by the Bell, Mark-Paul Gosselaar is starring in a sitcom, NBC’s Truth Be Told. “Comedy uses mental muscles that I’m looking forward to using again,” the actor admits. The series follows two couples (Gosselaar and Vanessa Lachey, Tone Bell and Bresha Webb), who are best friends as well as neighbors, as they navigate life and question the world with their frank and unfiltered points of view. Gosselaar says his character — college ethics professor Mitch — has a self-righteous thirst for justice that is a “scratch […]

October 15, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Summer’s successful Disney Channel Original Movie, Descendants, is getting a sequel. In the family-friendly flick, the progeny of Disney’s biggest baddies were chosen to attend prep school alongside the offspring of Disney heroes. And at the film’s end, a glint in Mal’s eye foreshadowed this morning’s announcement that a sequel is in the works. It should come as no surprise — Descendants is cable television’s fifth highest-rated movie of all-time with over 12.2 million viewers tuning in to the musical’s July 31 premiere. The film starred Dove Cameron as Mal, Cameron Boyce as Carlos, Booboo Stewart as Jay, Sofia Carson […]

5 Questions with Bresha Webb of NBC’s “Truth Be Told”

October 14, 2015 Kellie Freeze

NBC’s new sitcom, Truth Be Told, wants to make you think. The series focuses on two couples, who are best friends and also neighbors. The quartet, played by Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Vanessa Lackey, Bresha Webb and Tone Bell, do everything together and talk about everything. “Nothing is off limits,” explains Webb, who plays opinionated pediatrician and newlywed. Tracy. “We can talk about everything and anything and not get offended and if we do, we talk about it. Like friends do, there’s no curtain, we don’t have to mask our real emotions about things.” A close group of friends open to discussing […]

Recap: Monica The Medium Episode 8 “Road Trip”

October 13, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Tonight on Monica the Medium…Road trip!! It’s not a reality show if there’s not a road trip; it’s pretty much a TV rite of passage. The roomies are feeling stressed, so they’re heading to the lake for a long weekend of R&R. At the lake, Monica and roomies Ann, Julie and Krista are meeting up with a few others (boys!!!!). Krista challenges the roommates to have a tech-free weekend without social media (I love this idea, I’m totally stealing it 😜). The only way they can use their phones is to make calls and snap pictures. But when they say “No […]

Hop aboard the party plane, N&A fans (can we call ourselves Nudies or something?): we’re heading to Belize for Naked and Afraid: “Fear the Unknown”. And on this three-week vacation, we’re not going to the Belize Barrier Reef or the amazing Great Blue Hole, we’re heading inland to the jungle. It’s gonna be humid in Central America, and when Naked and Afraid goes to the moist places, you and this week’s survivalists can look forward to bugs, bugs and more bugs! And also big scary stuff like Tapirs and jaguars and poisonous frogs, black widow spiders and snakes. And also […]

Fargo Season 2: The Next Chapter

October 9, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Fargo is more than a town. “The word itself is so evocative of a place, the tundra where civilization meets the wilderness,” says series executive producer, showrunner and director Noah Hawley. “It’s evocative of a kind of story, a true-crime story that isn’t true, where truth is stranger than fiction.” When Fargo premiered last season on FX, the limited-run series, based loosely on the Coen brothers’ 1996 Oscar-winning film, became a runaway hit, a critical darling and a magnet for accolades — including a whopping 18 Emmy nominations. But if you worry about the series facing a sophomore slump, don’t. […]
