Why You Should Join NO ORDINARY FAMILY Star Stephen Collins in Praying For a Second Season
Having spent a decade playing a TV reverend on 7th HEAVEN, actor Stephen Collins is no stranger to prayer. Which is certainly good news, because if the actor who can currently be found every Tuesday night at 8PM on ABC playing the nefarious Dr. King on NO ORDINARY FAMILY hopes to see a second season, prayer is more than likely going to come in handy.
“7th HEAVEN was just a fantastic stroke of luck and from year three to about year ten we always knew we were coming back the next year, which never happens in a business in which job security is virtually non-existent,” explained Collins when asked what it’s like to have his latest show so perilously perched on the proverbial renewal/cancelation bubble. “Having said that, I think that if NO ORDINARY FAMILY goes into a second season, by the end of the season we’ll be looking at a show that everyone will be saying has to be around for 5 or 6 years. It’s always about getting to that second season.”

Our 2011 Oscar Telecast Review in a Nutshell: Four Hours of Our Life We’ll Never Get Back!
In summing up our reaction to last night’s 83rd ANNUAL ACADEMY AWARDS, we’re not being facetious when we ask, “For the love of all things holy is it over yet?” we’re actually asking! Seriously. To give you an idea as to just how painful last night’s OSCAR telecast was — for the first time ever — your very own TV Addict packed it in early, calling it a night around the time Natalie Portman predictably wobbled away with a much-deserved Best Actress award for her work in The Black Swan. Yes, the show was just that bad. But before we get to why, in the interest of fairness, here are a few positives.
From The King’s Speech to Christian Bale nabbing his first of what we suspect will be many career wins for his remarkable work in The Fighter, it’s hard to argue with any of last night’s winners. Also hard to argue with, the fact that host Anne Hathaway tried her absolute best under the circumstances. Unfortunately, no amount of singing, dancing or “Woo-Hooing” could mask the fact that the other half of last night’s hosting entity, James “Jack of all Trades” Franco finally came face-to-face with something he couldn’t do.
