September 3, 2015 Jeff Pfeiffer

“I want to do jokes on Donald Trump so badly, and I have no venue,” Stephen Colbert told reporters back in August at the Television Critics Association press tour, when he was still about a month away from debuting The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. “Right now, I’ve just been ‘dry-Trumping.’ I just hope he’s taking his vitamins. Please stay healthy until I get on the air. Every night before I go to bed, I light a candle and pray that he stays in the race, and I also pray that no one puts that candle anywhere near his hair.” […]

September 1, 2015 Eric Kohanik

Season 2 of Empire is heading back to the our screens. With full force.

There are a number of things that will help drive the series this year. Here are six things to look for when the season begins: 1. […]

September 1, 2015 StayTuned Staff

The entire staff gathered together and argued out the merits of this season’s new broadcast series to compile our top 10 best fall TV shows of 2015 (we held off on midseason, as our list would have been far too long). The Grinder (FOX) The Grinder never settles! Rob Lowe and Fred Savage have great chemistry as brothers with polar-opposite personalities. Savage plays a small-time Boise lawyer, while Lowe plays a high-octane, big-time attorney … on TV. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (The CW) Who wouldn’t give up life in NYC for hip West Covina, Calif.?!?

TCA: Will CBS’ Supergirl crossover with CW’s Flash and Arrow?

August 10, 2015 Jeff Pfeiffer

At CBS’ panel for the new series Supergirl at this morning’s Television Critics Association (TCA) panel, executive producer Greg Berlanti (The Flash, Arrow) said that he grew up worshipping the Superman films directed by Richard Donner. That is clear upon watching the pilot of his new series, which maintains the same type of fun and epic style as those earlier blockbusters (and will even include one of the memorable villains seen in Donner’s Superman II). With Berlanti’s other DC Comics TV hits on The CW sharing the same corporate parent as CBS’ Supergirl, a logical question, and probably one in the minds of many comics fans, came […]
