Full House Remake an Empty Promise
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, ABC, Gossip, Rumors,
For those who squealed at recent rumors that the Tanners will be returning in a Full House “semi-remake,” the next news might be tough.
An unnamed source has said that “we couldn’t make the deal.” According to gossip, John Stamos (a.k.a. Uncle Jesse) himself was pitching the idea, but the source claims “it’s completely dead right now.”
That doesn’t sound too hopeful. Full House was a successful family-themed sitcom which currently resides in cable syndication. The series originally ran on ABC from 1987 to 1995, and launched the careers of Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, the Olsen twins (who jointly portrayed youngest daughter Michelle Tanner).
But don’t give up just yet. According to the mysterious source, called an “insider,” the show “could happen in the future.” So could Soylent Green - but no one’s investing in it.

The Many Loves of Ashley Olsen
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Gossip,
Twin sis Mary-Kate has been making movies and taking guest star roles on TV…but what’s Ashley Olsen up to? The still-blonde twin has been making headlines with her love life (because although it’s an election year and there’s still an active writers strike there seems to be very little to discuss media-wise).
Olsen was spotted at an LA event recently with ex-boyfriend Jared Leto. Reportedly, the pair were holding hands and even making out, but one source says they’re still just friends. What’s a few kisses between exes, right?

Kissin’ Mary-Kate Olsen
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Gossip, Rumors,
Mary-Kate Olsen was recently spotted in a nightclub cozied up to Dave Annable of Brothers & Sisters fame. The pair were seen playing tonsil hockey and looking pretty hot and heavy in a darkened nightclub. Annable is seven years’ Mary-Kate’s senior, a much smaller age gap than the one in twin sister Ashley Olsen’s alleged romance with cyclist Lance Armstrong.
Mary-Kate is known for being somewhat reticent with the press and highly protective of her privacy, but apparently that doesn’t extend to making out with hot young stars in a darkened club. Is this the beginning of a new romance for Olsen, or just a passing flirtation? Keep your eyes peeled for the pair in a dark club somewhere near you.

More Than Legal: Mary-Kate and Ashley Turn 21
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Talent, Gossip, News,
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen turned 21 Thursday, a milestone birthday for the famous former child stars. Though they still have a huge fan base, much of it springing from the tween and teen set (not to mention a host of men who just love the way they look), the well-known identical twins have been seen less and less in movies and TV and more and more in tabloids. Are they quickly heading down a darkened path of former child stardom, the road many other actors have trod? Not every child actor fades into obscurity – just look at former wild child Drew Barrymore, who was famous tabloid fodder for drug abuse problems and a score of other antics when she was 19. Today, Barrymore is one of Hollywood’s more bankable stars. Or will Mary-Kate and Ashley end up like the Gabor sisters twenty years from now – older, famous, and still sisters, but no one can remember how they got famous in the first place?

Weeds Comes Between Olsen Twins
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Drama, Cable, HBO, Cable/Satellite,
If you thought the Olsen twins were a package deal, think again. Mary-Kate (the skinny one—how funny is that?) will be joining the third season of Weeds, starring Mary-Louise Parker. This is the first time she has appeared without her sister and after a long hiatus from the television business. Remember, they spent their adolescence churning out direct-to-video features? And then there was their attempt at the film New York Minute... well, ‘nuff said there. She’ll be playing a Christian girl who is smitten with Nancy Botwin’s (Parker) son Silas (Hunter Parrish). Olsen will appear for 10 of the upcoming 15 episodes. Well at least she’s staying in the wholesome role, although the character is rumored to be a bit of wild child. “I’m thrilled to be a part of the show,” said Olsen. “It’s really an honor to be a part of such a talented group of actors and writers.” Executive producer Jenji Kohan said of Olsen, “She came in and read with Hunter and was absolutely charming and real and seemed like a great fit. Audiences have seen only one side of Mary-Kate, but here we’ll see her in a whole new light.” Will this new role have people seeing Olsen in a new way? Or at least as more of an individual rather than part of the “Olsen twins”? At the end of the day, I’m sure she doesn’t really care because she’s a millionaire! Weeds premieres August 13th.
