Tonight, “Instant Mom” celebrates Mother’s Day With TV Legends

May 8, 2014 Kellie Freeze

Tia Mowry-Hardrict got her TV start as the star (with twin sister Tamera) on the family comedy Sister, Sister. Now a wife and mother, Mowry-Hardrict has found a more grownup role in her new show, Instant Mom (airing Thursdays on Nickelodeon). “What attracted me first to Instant Mom was just the family dynamic,” says Mowry-Hardrict. “This was a show about a blended family, and you really don’t see a lot of that on television right now.” On Instant Mom, Mowry-Hardrict plays Stephanie Phillips, a former party girl who marries an older man and becomes the stepmom of three adorable children. […]

Host Josh Duhamel will preside over the zany proceedings, trying his bland-leading-man heart out to prove that he indeed does have a personality. Seriously, […]

November 15, 2012 StayTuned Staff

Even if you don’t know the name Lucas Cruikshank, if you’ve seen any Nickelodeon at all, chances are you recognize that voice he sported in all of those Fred shows and films. And whether that voice appeals to you or is the verbal equivalent of scraping a chalkboard, Cruikshank is back on Nickelodeon — without the elfin squeak — in a new series, Marvin Marvin, premiering Saturday, Nov. 24 at 8:30pm ET/PT. I talked to the former Fred: The Show star about his new series, what it’s like to leave Fred behind, and what he has going on for the […]

Nickelodeon poised to clean up with “Rags”

May 25, 2012 StayTuned Staff

The world of pre-teen musical shows is a hard-driven one. And the rivalry between Nickelodeon and the Mouse for dominance in the genre is just relentless, as many parents of those pre-teens will tell you. Both keep at it and are showing no sign of letting up, in spite of the fact that the kids who made High School Musical the phenomenon it was are either in college or will be soon. The music keeps rolling on in both camps, from Nickelodeon’s Victorious and How to Rock to Disney Channel’s Lemonade Mouth. Now Nickelodeon attempts to up the ante once again with […]

Cymphonique Miller has the latest on “How to Rock”

April 20, 2012 StayTuned Staff

Make no mistake, those of you kids out there who dream of having your own Nickelodeon series — it’s a lot harder than it looks. And it’s a lot more work. Not only are there endless rehearsals of various sorts, but there are junkets to attend, press conferences of all sorts, and if you’re really unlucky, you get to sit in a room with your dad and a bunch of other grown-ups while talking to me about your show and whatever else Nickelodeon wants you to tell me. It’s not a life most parents would recommend for their children, but […]

“Degrassi” stars Melinda Shankar and Jahmil French welcome incoming class

February 17, 2012 StayTuned Staff

It’s the show that seems to go on forever, a rite of passage series that’s been an education in itself for many going into and attending high school. Degrassi returns with the second half of Season 11 this Monday, Feb. 20, on TeenNick, and in preparation and celebration, its cast has been making the rounds, hosting premiere screening parties in select cities, meeting fans and talking to press people like me. I sat down with Melinda Shankar and Jahmil French, who play troubled Degrassi couple Alli Bhandari and Dave Turner, to talk about where they left things off at summer […]

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 […]
