At 100 years old, we still love Lucy

August 5, 2011 StayTuned Staff

by Karl J. Paloucek Follow @ChannelGuide Lucille Ball enjoyed one of the most incredible show business careers of anyone in the 20th century. For more than six decades, she entertained, from her early days as a “Ziegfeld Girl” in New York to her Hollywood film career and, of course, her pioneering work both in front of the camera and behind the scenes for television. But she will forever be known, to most of us, as simply Lucy — the goofball redhead who got herself, her husband Ricky (played by real-life husband Desi Arnaz) and their two landlord friends, Fred and […]

A viewer’s guide to non-wedding programming

April 28, 2011 Tom Comi

For those of you who will for one reason or another be up at 4 am ET tomorrow with no desire whatsoever to watch the Royal wedding, we here at Channel Guide Magazine have you covered. For every network that is covering the over-hyped vows, there are countless others that are offering a potpourri of programming choices. With that in mind, here is what we are officially deeming our “Un-Royal Best Bets,” which is subjective at best when you consider that all of these shows are airing just after midnight on the West Coast and shortly before sunrise on the […]

Hallmark Party Brings Out The Stars #TCA

January 9, 2011 Barb Oates

Hallmark Channel certainly knows how to throw a party (thank you Pam Slay). The network known for their family-focused original movies that feature popular stars of the past spared no expense as they gathered over 300 critics and talent at Pasadena’s prestigious Tournament House on Friday. The 18,500 square foot mansion was the winter home of chewing gum magnate William Wrigley and is now the official headquarters of the Tournament of Roses Association. Marion Ross (Happy Days) and Shelly Hack (Charlie’s Angels) were upstairs touring when we walked through, marveling at the ornate details of the rooms and the history […]

“One Tree Hill”: Talking With Daphne Zuniga

October 22, 2008 StayTuned Staff

If you’ve been watching this space, you might recall my I mentioning, last week, that I might have a few words with Daphne Zuniga, who plays Victoria Davis — Brooke’s mom — on OTH. Zuniga is set to play another role, that of a con artist in the American frontier West, for Hallmark Channel‘s Mail Order Bride (premiering Nov. 8). But as part of our general discussion, we did get a few questions in about Brooke’s mother-and-nemesis, Victoria. It’s often said that it’s more fun to play the villain than the good guy or gal. Would you say that that’s […]

Some of the hot talk so far from this year’s summer Television Critics Association (TCA) press tour: TV’s New “It” Girl: Olivia Munn The sexy, sassy and completely unfiltered Olivia Munn provided the laughs at a press conference this week for G4’s live interactive series, “Attack of the Show,” airing weeknights at 7pm ET/PT.
