ABC Moving Forward with Charlie’s Angels Reboot
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, ABC, Video,
What was rumored about over a year ago is now coming to fruition (as if there was any doubt).
A Miami-set version of Charlie's Angels has now reached pilot stage for ABC. The reboot of the classic series will be handled by two of the producers from the movie installments (Drew Barrymore, Nancy Juvonen) and Leonard Goldberg.
Smallville creators/executive producers Al Gough and Miles Millar will also share producing duties.
No actresses have yet been tapped for the update, but Gossip Girl's Mark Piznarski is being considered as a possible director.

2010 Screen Actors Guild Award Nominations (TV)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, Cable, CBS, FX, FOX, HBO, NBC, PBS, Showtime, TNT-HD, 30 Rock, House, Medium, The Office, News,
Squeezed in between the Golden Globes broadcast and the Oscar nominations is an awards ceremony voted on solely by the actors. (So unlike the People’s Choice Awards, this actually has meaning.)
For the 16th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, we’ll see a lot of the old and just a little bit of the new. Here are some of the noteworthy mentions from this year’s list of television nominees:
- The Closer, Dexter and 30 Rock lead this year’s pack with three nominations each.
- Despite no individual mentions, freshman comedies Modern Family and Glee were both honored in the Best Ensemble category.
- Samantha Who‘s Christina Applegate received a nomination despite starring in a canceled show.
- True Blood received its first nom—but just for its cast, not for any single actor.
The SAG Awards will air Saturday, Jan. 23 on both TNT and TBS.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, Cable, CBS, FX, FOX, HBO, Showtime, 30 Rock, Entourage, House, Lost, The Office,
The 2009-10 awards season kicked into high gear this morning with the official announcement of the Golden Globe nominations.
Here are some of the noteworthy mentions from this year’s list of TV nominees:
- Freshman drama Glee leads all TV nominations with a total of four - including mentions for Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison and Jane Lynch. Damages, Dexter, 30 Rock and Big Love all got three noms.
- Although cable television dominated the Best Drama category, the major networks had a tight hold of the Best Comedy category.
- Newbies recognized this year include Courteney Cox (Cougar Town), Thomas Jane (Hung), Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie) and Modern Family.
- Despite big buzz around Emmy time, Big Bang Theory‘s Jim Parsons did not get any love this time around. Meanwhile, Emmy-winner Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) was snubbed as well.
- HBO, once again, leads all channels with 17 nominations. FOX and Showtime both had six each.
The 67th Golden Globe Awards with host Ricky Gervais airs Jan. 17 on NBC.

SNL Lines Up Ryan Reynolds, Gerard Butler and Lady Gaga
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, Music, NBC, Saturday Night Live,
Megan Fox may be an enticing reason for men to watch Saturday Night Live, but she won’t be the only appealing guest this season.
On October 3, the Green Lantern‘s Ryan Reynolds will visit the NBC program with musical performer Lady Gaga in tow. (Given the late hour, we can only imagine what “Poker Face” star will wear.)
Reynolds’ stint will be followed by an appearance from Kristen Wiig’s Whip It co-star Drew Barrymore on October 10. (Drew will be accompanied by singer Regina Spektor.) Then on October 17, 300 hunk Gerard Butler will take the stage with “She Wolf” Shakira serving as the hip-shaking musical act.
SNL‘s 35th season will kick off with Megan Fox on September 26. U2 will the ones rocking the house on that night.

(You can view TV Envy’s Midseason Programming Schedule here.)
MONDAY 4/27)
- Little People, Big World (TLC, 8pm): “Matt has high expectations for the upcoming pumpkin season, but he starts to worry when opening day fails to draw large crowds.” His pessimism grows when he sees Charlie Brown sitting alone in the patch.
- How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30pm): “Ted starts texting a woman (Rebecca Budig) he recently met, breaking one of Barney and Marshall’s relationship rules.” His “Bro” status is then revoked when he friends her on Facebook.
- Table for 12 (TLC, 9pm): “Eric and Betty Hayes share their step-by-step guide to raising a large family.” The “creating” section of that guide will be left out.
- CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm): “A sexy bachelorette on a popular TV dating series is discovered murdered in a limousine just as the bachelor on the show is going to propose to her.” The prerecorded event was later billed as a finale “shocker.”

Jimmy Fallon’s First Guests Unveiled
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Late Night, Talk Shows, NBC,
Yesterday’s Conan O’Brien finale (the New York version) officially kicked off the countdown for his successor’s premiere.
Beginning next month, a host of A-list celebrities will help launch Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Tina Fey (NBC star), Donald Trump (NBC star), Drew Barrymore (his Fever Pitch costar) and Cameron Diaz (why??) are among the names slated for Week 1.
Unfortunately, the SNL vet has elected to get the ball rolling with one of the most difficult interviewees out there: Robert De Niro. (I strongly suggest Fallon dissect Brian Williams’ awkward attempt first.)
Late Night debuts @ 12:30 A.M. on March 2nd.

Golden Globes: Who Wins the Best Dressed Award?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Award Shows, Prime Time, Reality, Specials, NBC, Gossip,
Not everyone was able to walk away a winner at last night’s Golden Globes, but some stand out whether or not they received a statue. Some of the Hollywood elite looked like winners…while others, I wish I didn’t have to look at through the night at all.
All the results are in and the victories are tallied - but one. When it comes to last night’s Golden Globes, who wins the best dressed award?

2009 Golden Globe Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Prime Time, Cable, HBO, NBC, News,
One year after a strike-induced absence, the drinking resumed. Although the 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards drew its usual set of followers tonight, this year’s program carried even more significance than usual. The reason? Heath Ledger.
With or without the Dark Knight nomination, the ceremony would have been interesting. Was this going to be the year a film about an Indian game show (Slumdog Millionaire) won top prize? Would either Meryl Streep (Mamma Mia, Doubt) or Kate Winslet (Revolutionary Road, The Reader) walk away with two awards? Could Mickey Rourke‘s comeback performance in The Wrestler earn him a surprise win over Sean Penn (Milk)?
To find out the answer to these questions (and many more), you can read our detailed coverage after the jump!
