Consider what is now reality -- television is an important way to expand your talents, extend your career and rid yourself of cubas (named for the epitome of the post-Oscar slump, Cuba Gooding, Jr.). With that in mind, here are 11 Oscar Winners Who Need a TV Show, STAT.
Justice Sotomayor is known for being down-to-earth and approachable. Even so, it's not so often that people just walk up to her on the street and ask her to resolve their disputes. Unless she's on Sesame Street, that is.
While there are shows that make me laugh on a regular basis (from Curb Your Enthusiasm to The Big Bang Theory to Hot in Cleveland), there are many, many more that don't.
Key & Peele, a sketch comedy show on Comedy Central, is peddling offensive comedy. Apparently, when Key and Peele say their comedy is universal what they really mean is that blacks will be the butt of the jokes and others will be the ones universally yucking it up.
Harlem is alive and thriving, more so now than ever before, and in many cases food is at the center of Harlem's new economic growth. Within the midst of great history and cultural diversity lies a food side of Harlem just waiting to be discovered by those foodies who seek it.
As if good looks and the creative gene weren't enough to peek my curiosity -- his love of Harley Davidson's and Corvettes were the icing on the cake. I caught up with Grieco recently to talk about his passion for painting, and to ask "When do I get a ride on one of those bikes!"
Unquestionably, there are a few memorable films in the running, but also a lot of filler -- some nominees that simply make you scratch your head in wonderment.
Hollywood sets styles, captures imaginations, touches dreams. Worldwide, movies provide people with much of what they think about America. Yet, the 5,765 voting members of the Academy are far from representative of the moviegoing public.
The emergence of Digital Hollywood provides an alternative for content creators and consumers looking for stories that look and feel organic to their life experiences.
To tide you over before the sophomore season of American Horror Story begins production, I interviewed the first season's consulting producer Tim Minear.
The Academy Awards got it right again this year. Billy Crystal -- the funniest baby boomer alive -- will host The Greatest Show on Earth for the ninth time. We can all breathe a sigh of relief.
Luckily for us, there was no interaction amongst the ladies tonight (Courtney said it best, she's so happy to be away from the girls). It's hometown date night!
Sure there are slam dunks like Rango taking home Best Animated Feature, and The Artist will probably win big in most major categories, but I suspect a bunch of upsets in the acting categories.
This week's The Walking Dead ended with... more talking! Ugh.
Gossip Girl, about a bunch of rich Upper East Siders and their insanely ridiculous lives, has never been a perfect show. This season, however, the show feels like it has seriously lost its way.
Pan Am is a majestic look at events, times, people and places that have made our country a melting pot and provides a weekly adventure into the lives and times that have led us to our present.
Whenever there's an A-grade episode of Supernatural these days, chances are that evil genius Ben Edlund is the man behind the magic.
This year marks the 25th anniversary of Debbie Gibson's debut album, Only in My Dreams. At 41 Gibson shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, she jokingly says, "I'll be performing 'Electric Youth' till I'm 83 with a walking stick!"
I expected her to address her fears as an opportunity to bridge the gap between her own misunderstanding of dwarfism and the reality. Rather than erase any distance, O'Donnell reinforced the gap.
This season, in my opinion, is about choices. What kind of cop is Ben becoming? What is Lydia going to do about the baby?
