Jackson Pace has had a lot of great experiences starring in the hit Showtime drama Homeland, where he plays Chris Brody, the son of returned soldier Nicholas Brody.

Stine’s The Haunting Hour, which filmed its latest episode, “Toy Train,” airing this Saturday at 7:30pm ET, in Vancouver. “Canada is such a beautiful place,” Pace says. “On my day off I had the chance to zipline at Grouse Mountain.

Sons of Anarchy recap: “A Mother’s Work”

Perhaps there are many occasions when a Sons of Anarchy recap just can’t do justice to what it’s describing. I’ll go ahead and tell you all the things that happened in the Season 6 finale, but it can’t match the power of seeing it. But be warned, this is going to hurt, and probably make you mad and want to go into a Jax-like rage of spitting out your words then yelling uncontrollably for a sentence or two then kicking something.

Joel McHale says Community Season 5 is “like Christmas and my birthday every day”: NBC’s comedy Community returns for Season 5 with back-to-back new episodes Jan. 2. NBC’s much-loved but ratings-challenged comedy Community has often seemed more like a soap opera. After three seasons, the show’s creator and life force, Dan Harmon, was fired in May 2012. Disgruntled Chevy Chase left the cast in November 2012. The show stumbled through a shortened Season 4 under replacement showrunners. It somehow got renewed, and then Harmon was rehired for Season 5, which premieres on NBC Jan. 2 at 8pm ET/PT and airs […]
