We also had a near miss with setting DMZ up as a television show, at a verrrry respectable network, and its a bit crushing. I had hoped the whole new “DC Entertainment” mean they'd be better about this sort of thing… and

Seth Rogen will play the infamous Dirty Randy on The League’s Season 3 premiere, producers revealed Saturday at the Television Critics Association fall TV previews.

Creators and executive producers Jackie and Jeff Schaffer promised fans last year that they would reveal the oft-mentioned, but never-seen friend of Rafic(Jason Mantzoukas)if the comedy was picked up for a third season.

“As the legend of Dirty Randy grew among our fans — is that Dirty Randy? Is that a shot of Dirty Randy? — we realized we really have to…

China Anne McClain’s biggest fan is in for a big surprise on an upcoming episode of Disney Channel’s PrankStars.

In the episode, McClain competes against 14-year-old Sakoiya for the chance to become a television game-show host. But the pressure is on when the show’s producer appears to favor the A.N.T. Farm star. In this first-look photo, McClain and Sakoiya may look like they’re jumping for joy, but it’s not until the joke is revealed that the group can laugh about it.

Playboy Club Producer: It’s Not Mad Men and It’s Not So Racy

August 1st, 2011

Comparisons between NBC’s The Playboy Club, the new 1960s-set series that takes place at the first Playboy Club in Chicago, and Mad Men were perhaps inevitable, but the producers and cast of the period drama were on hand at the fall TV previews on Monday to downplay any similarities. “The comparison to Mad Men ends at the era,” executive producer Ian Biederman said. “This is a much different show with a much different energy.”

Parents Television Council calls for NBC affiliates to drop The Playboy Club

Before the series has even premiered, the show has drawn attention for its name alone, causing the Parents Television Council to question whether a show based on one of the largest adult entertainment industries would be suitable on primetime television. At least one NBC affiliate, Salt Lake City’s KSL, has opted to not carry the program, which will be shown in that market by KMYU, the local My Network TV affiliate.

But the producers say it’s…

There’s Nothing Strange About an Addiction to My Strange Addiction

July 31st, 2011

Krista | Photo Credits: TLC

My Strange Addiction (Sundays, 10/9c, TLC) is maybe the most entertaining freak show on television now, and definitely the most guilt-free one.

While shows such as Celebrity Rehab, Intervention and Hoarders enlist subjects whose participation is possibly clouded (or motivated) by substance or mental illness, My Strange Addiction is more of a platform for reasonably coherent people to share their weirdness (since they are, after all, signing up for a show that has the word “strange” in its title).

My Strange Addiction embraces those who embrace their own eccentricities.

And, boy, are they eccentric. TLC will air the fifth and sixth episodes of the show’s second season on Sunday, and by then we will have been treated to snapshots of the lives of people who are “addicted” to the likes of cycling, eating dryer sheets, chomping rocks and carrying around a pillow…

Exclusive: Heidi Fleiss on Her New Animal Planet Show Prostitutes to Parrots

July 30th, 2011

“Hollywood Madam” Heidi Fleiss knows her life sounds a bit strange. But Fleiss’ three-year stint in jail, run-ins with exes like Tom Sizemore and struggles with drugs sound almost normal compared to her other addiction: Caring for more than 20 exotic macaw parrots.

Fleiss’ relationship with those birds forms the basis of a new Animal Planet special, Heidi Fleiss: Prostitutes to Parrots. The one-hour program, from Craig Piligian’s Pilgrim Films and Television, airs Sunday at 10 p.m. and doubles as the pilot episode to a potential series.

Fleiss, who lives in Pahrump, Nevada (where she continues to consult for brothels), was pitching another reality show concept with her brother when Piligian suggested turning the camera on her and her birds. It’s an expensive hobby, one that she supports by running a laundromat and a doggie day care — as well as starring in reality shows (like this one and Celebrity Rehab).

With her macaws squawking in the background, Fleiss spoke with TV Guide Magazine about her love/hate relationship with the birds; her brutally honest take on Dr. Drew Pinsky; why she didn’t care for Mike Tyson’s Animal Planet show; and how she manages to stay sober.

Kelsey Grammer on Putting the Bullet in Hank: "It Wasn’t Very Funny"

July 30th, 2011

Kelsey Grammer, a four-time Emmy winner for his role on Frasier series , admits he was eager to try on a dramatic role after his short-lived and critically panned 2009 sitcom Hank.

“With Hank, nobody really liked that, and it wasn’t very funny,” Grammer, 56, told reporters with a chuckle at the Television Critics Association conference Friday to promote the upcoming Starz political drama Boss. “So we thought we’d do something different.”

Kelsey Grammer plots return to television

Grammer said he had a bad feeling about Hank early on, but remained optimistic that the show could be…
