Lyssa Chapman on her new book, her new show and life beyond Dog the Bounty Hunter

May 21, 2013 Lori Acken

Dog the Bounty Hunter fans know Lyssa Chapman as “Baby Lyssa,” the petite and beautiful blond daughter of Duane Dog Chapman, stepdaughter of Beth Chapman and half sister to the show’s other stars, Leland and Duane Lee Chapman — though the family famously refuses to use terms like “step” and “half” to describe their bonds. Arriving on Dog and Beth’s doorstep — and thus, on A&E cameras — as a troubled teen with her toddler daughter Abbie in tow, Lyssa eventually evolved into a key member of the bounty-hunting team and developed a broad fan base of smitten men and […]

May 21, 2013 Jeff Pfeiffer

Even though The Office just ended its run, fans of unique workplace personalities and drama will still have a place to get their fix — and in real life. The new FOX reality series Does Someone Have to Go? gives employees at “dysfunctional” companies 48 hours to switch places with their boss/owner and call the shots, often leading to what executive producer Cris Abrego calls “one big therapeutic session.” Abrego says his production sought out companies “where they were having some level of dysfunction, or some level of toxicity in the workplace. … It has nothing to do, in a […]

VOD Spotlight: Side Effects

May 21, 2013 Meredith Ennis

Side Effects was shot primarily on location in and around New York City, which director Steven Soderbergh says can be intimidating. “There are so many iconic New York movies. I decided that the important thing was to make the locations organic to this movie. The narrative is the priority. That doesn’t mean we didn’t look for locations that were interesting and different, but I don’t go anywhere one of the characters hasn’t been.” With that in mind, some of the locales that were chosen for filming definitely come under the heading of “gritty.” At Manhattan Psychiatric Center the filmmakers shot […]

Bates Motel recap: “Midnight”

May 20, 2013 StayTuned Staff

Even though we know where the characters ultimately end up, Bates Motel has done a pretty good job of being unpredictable in its debut season. For instance, I couldn’t have told you at the outset that there would have been subplots involving human trafficking, marijuana fields and police corruption. Nor that Vera Farmiga would take complete control over the series, giving far more depth and nuance to Norma Bates than I ever thought possible. Why, it’s almost heartbreaking to think that one day she’ll be sitting in that rocking chair as her mummified corpse takes the blame for Norman’s murderous […]
