Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove returns to Hallmark Channel on Saturday for its sophomore season with Sue Tenney (7th Heaven) taking over as showrunner, a move that excites the show’s star, Andie MacDowell. “I feel like Sue has a good handle on things,” she says. “She was able to get us out of all of the high drama that we were left in, and maneuver us into some other situations that I think are actually more interesting.” The high drama to which MacDowell is referring is Season 1’s sensational conclusion, where MacDowell’s Olivia reunited with her love, Jack, her daughter’s Justine’s […]

Dating Naked Recap: Episode 1, Joe and Wee Wee

So here we are, about to watch another show starring naked folks. But this time, instead of searching for water, food, clothing and shelter, the participants are looking for love (Or sex.

VH1 has thrown a spin on the reality dating genre by taking singles, stripping off their clothes and hopefully removed their inhibitions towards love on Dating Naked. The show’s theme song has the words, “When I met ‘cha, I saw everything. I know you now.” How fitting. How many of the show’s contestants are going to vote with their eyes and […]

Stephanie Szostak Finds Herself In USA Network’s “Satisfaction”

It’s not a mid-life crisis, insists actress Stephanie Szostak. When her character on USA Network’s new drama Satisfaction begins an affair with a male escort, it’s not her character freaking out at getting older and mourning the loss of her youth. Instead, the French beauty says, “I think it is more of an awakening. It’s that stage where especially, women, you’re devoted, you’re a mother, a wife, and suddenly, you think, ‘Gosh, Who am I?’” It’s a thought-provoking question, and as Szostak’s character, Grace Truman, ponders who she is outside of her roles of wife and mother, she finds that […]

Katherine LaNasa Exudes Confidence In USA’s Satisfaction

Satisfaction premieres on USA Network on July 17 as a steamy new drama about a husband and wife and how their successful lives start to evolve as they look at what makes them happy and the lengths people go to achieve happiness. As Neil and Grace Truman make unconventional decisions, they become more in tune to their desires and their connection to each other grows stronger.

Tom Ellis Plays A Steamy “Medical Fixer” In USA’s New Series “Rush”

When baseball pros with anger issues, actors with — ahem — personal problems, or bullet-riddled gangsters need a discreet doctor, who do they call? If you’ve got cash, then Dr. Will Rush (Tom Ellis) has no prejudice. Rush, USA Network’s new high-octane drama, premieres  boasts an antihero lead with as much to hide as his famous, and infamous, clientele.
