June 20, 2013 Jeff Pfeiffer

Sofia Coppola’s latest film, The Bling Ring, premieres in the U.S. on June 21. Inspired by real-life events that took place in 2008-09, The Bling Ring tells the story of a group of teenagers obsessed with fashion and celebrity who burglarize celebrities’ homes in Los Angeles.

Wilfred Season 3 preview: FX comedy still has bite

June 20, 2013 StayTuned Staff

I love the premise of Wilfred so much that I know I’m probably often guilty of overlooking its shortcomings. The idea of a man seeing a guy in a dog suit while everyone else sees a dog just tickles me so much that I can’t help but feel good about what I’m watching, even during the times that what I’m watching isn’t that good. Thankfully, though, there isn’t much in the first three episodes of Wilfred Season 3 that I need to feel ambivalent about enjoying. Kicking off with a pair of episodes tonight, Wilfred Season 3 starts off in […]

Jodi Arias Dirty Little Secret: director Jace Alexander on why the film might surprise you

June 20, 2013 Lori Acken

If you’re wondering how Lifetime’s Jodi Arias biopic Jodi Arias: Dirty Little Secret can premiere mere weeks after the sensational months-long trial came to a close, the answer is surprisingly simple. The filmmakers say they always intended for the movie to focus on the doomed lovers at the trial’s bloodstained heart — Arias and her victim Travis Alexander — before their final, fatal encounter. “We didn’t set out to make a courtroom drama, because that’s not what fascinated us about this story,” says director Jace Alexander (Law & Order, Rescue Me), who is no relation to Travis Alexander. “The courtroom […]

By making the universe a little fuller, it gave us a chance to breathe new life into the history […]

June 20, 2013 StayTuned Staff

Small towns are often referred to as being isolated and cut off from the rest of the world, but that expression takes on a horrifyingly literal meaning in CBS’ Under the Dome (premiering 10pm ET Monday). The tranquil hamlet of Chester’s Mill is going about its Norman Rockwellian existence one day when suddenly an invisible dome emerges and encapsulates the entire town, not letting anyone in or out. That’s when the 2,000 or so residents become a microcosm of society, with the major players including Dale “Barbie” Barbara (Mike Vogel, Bates Motel), an ex-military man now making his living as a waiter; […]
