‘Outlander’ Season 2 Review: New Diana Gabaldon Adaptation Sparkles For Starz

Outlander Season 2

Debuting on April 9 on Starz, the second season of Outlander is an opulent, exciting and extremely complicated affair, literally and figuratively. With that, the 13-episode series, to paraphrase Caitriona Balfe’s Claire Randall, happens at its own dazzling pace. Already one of the most satisfying dramas on TV, Season 2 of the sensual time-travel series starring Balfe and Sam Heughan is, as I say in my video review above, a splendid feast. This season of the series… Read

Gabrielle Carteris has been elected president of SAG-AFTRA by the union's national board of directors. The former star of Beverly Hills, 90210 had been serving as the union's acting president since Howard's death on March 23. A longtime union activist, she'd been the union's second-ranking officer – executive vice president – since the merger of SAG and AFTRA in 2012, which she helped orchestrate. Prior to the merger, she'd been the president of AFTRA's Los Angeles Local… Read

‘Sleepy Hollow’ Ratings Rise For Season Finale; ABC & CBS Tied For Demo Win

sleepy hollow s3 finale april 8 2016

You would have thought Sleepy Hollow (0.7/3) was The Walking Dead the way major characters were being killed off this season and last night's Season 3 finale was the showstopper. No word if the fantasy procedural is coming back for a fourth season but it certainly went out with some traction on Friday. Unsurprisingly down 50% from its Season 2 finale, which was on Monday February 23, 2015 and followed a strong Gotham, last night's SH saw a rise of 17% among adults 18-49… Read

MTV has ordered Backup Plan, an unscripted pilot starring Leonard Ouzts, a 23-year-old former IHOP waiter-turned-standup comedian. While he has had success — Ouzts was named a New Face at the Just for Laughs Montreal Comedy Festival, he has performed stand-up on TBS' Conan, and will be in this season of Adam Devine's House Party on Comedy Central — he is being practical, which is reflected in Backup Plan. Ouzts has seen what happens when people hit their 15th minute of… Read

‘Game Of Silence’ Review: NBC’s Adaptation Of Turkish Drama A Taut Thriller

Game Of Silence

Based on the 2012 Turkish series Suskunlar, NBC's Game Of Silence is a taut and ultimately satisfying thriller series that is all about payback and the cost it brings. Debuting as a preview April 12 after The Voice before moving to its regular slot April 14, the 10-episode first season from Sony TV and Universal TV is, as I say in my video review above, part Fight Club, part Sleepers and part just good old-fashioned network storytelling. Adapted for a Stateside audience… Read

Business Leaders Meet With President Obama At The White House

Comcast only had a so-so year in 2015, especially as federal officials forced it to withdraw its bid for Time Warner Cable. But CEO Brian Roberts and other top execs shouldn’t have any complaints. Roberts’ compensation rose 10% to $36.2 million, according to the company proxy just filed at the SEC.
