Everywhere you turn in the BEDLAM world, there are ghosts, specters and images of grisly murders from year’s past; and each episode is a lesson in why it is never a good idea to convert a former insane asylum into apartments. For roommates Kate, Jed, Ryan and Molly, life should be easy. They are young, beautiful and carefree – or they were until they took up residence at Bedlam Heights.
One would think that the problems began when Jed, who can see ghosts and gets flashes of people’s deaths when he touches objects, moved in. But as the first episode clearly showed, the troubles at Bedlam Heights were there long before Jed arrived. He just arrived in the nick of time to help circumvent some of the more recent hauntings.
Over the course of the first season, each of the Bedlam inhabitants has their own run-ins with the ghostly, non-corporeal figures lurking in the shadows. [Read more…]

Silas Weir Mitchell Peels Back the Mystery About Playing the Big Bad Bluebod in GRIMM
Friday nights have welcomed a new kind of supernatural series with the impressive debut of the quasi-horror/fantasy series GRIMM. One of the key reasons viewers latched onto the fun show is fun portrayal by Silas Weir Mitchell, who plays Monroe, the bluebod with a heart of gold. Call it what you may, bluebod – werewolf – lycanthrope – it does not matter if the creature with claws is on your side. It was a fun twist to find that last week’s prime suspect ended up being the mentor that Detective Nick Burkhardt needed when he began seeing people in their true forms – for not everyone is strictly human in this new supernaturally-infused world. In a conference call with press, Silas shared what he loves about Monroe and the show that is winning hearts across the television spectrum.
Could you elaborate about your character Monroe and what will we learn more about him in future episodes?
SILAS: Well, to elaborate more on my character — basically I suppose everything you hear in the pilot, that’s pretty much as far as we get. I mean I’m a Bluebod and I am sort of a reformed Bluebod. I’m trying to live as a human on the straight and narrow. We will definitely learn more about my character in future episodes. But as far as sort of family history we’re not getting into that yet. We do learn about the clockmaker, but it doesn’t get too much into my history or anything. [Read more…]
Today’s TV Addict Top 5: Questions with A GIFTED MAN Star Rachelle Lefevre
If there’s one thing actress Rachelle Lefevre has learned over the course of her decade long career, it’s how to land on ones feet. In fact, one needn’t look further than her prolific imdb resume to realize that the moment her career takes a turn for the worst, the actress manages to turn things around with a string of high profile starring roles. Which is precisely why it came as no surprise that fresh off the disappointment of ABC’s OFF THE MAP, the in-demand actress currently finds herself in New York City playing a doctor of an entirely different kind in CBS’ A GIFTED MAN. So just what keeps Lefevre going amidst all the ups and downs of the roller-coaster that is her career and what is it that attracted her to her latest role? We recently had the pleasure of catching up with the affable actor to find out just that. See for yourself, after the jump. [Read more…]

Ask the Addict: Spoilers for BONES, DEXTER, ONCE UPON A TIME, THE BIG BANG THEORY & More!
Absolutely loved Kristin Bauer’s guest appearance as Maleficent on Sunday’s ONCE UPON A TIME. That being said, any word on what other iconic Disney character fans might expect to see? — Amy
The TV Addict: Forget words, we’ve got lyrics! And if you can place where the following ones come from you’ll have a pretty good idea as to what iconic fairytale character may-or-may-not be soon popping up on ONCE UPON A TIME next: “Little town, it’s a quiet village…” Oh, and on the off chance you were able to crack our not-so-challenging code, feel free to head to the comments below and share your casting suggestions. At the top of our list would be MODERN FAMILY’s Sarah Hyland!
Is Mos Def’s Brother Sam really dead on DEXTER? — Dave
The TV Addict: Much like Brother Sam, on the subject of his fate, we’re a man of few words. Except to say that what does-or-doesn’t-happen to Brother Sam has some seriously spooky implications for poor Dexter. In fact, one might even go as far to say that last Sunday’s shooting sets into motion a horrific story that will haunt America’s favorite serial killer for episodes to come. Need we say more? We hope not, because if you have failed to pick up on our not-so-subtle nod to AMERICAN HORROR STORY yet, it’s possible you’ve been watching a little too much television.
Any idea as to the sex of Booth and Brennan’s baby on BONES? — Michelle
The TV Addict: Ummm… yes. But since we sure as heck aren’t going to be the ones to risk the wrath of Hart “Crazy Canuck” Hanson by spoiling the surprise, we’ll simply say that the manner in which the sex is revealed in the show’s second episode back will come as just as a surprise to Booth.

Discovering the Canadian Comedy Series CALL ME FITZ
For Canadian television viewers, they are well aware of the sensation CALL ME FITZ, which has been recognized as one of the most groundbreaking comedy series on television. For American viewers, CALL ME FITZ may be a still undiscovered gem.
Returning for its second season, CALL ME FITZ is set to blow-minds again with its piercing, ribald adult-humor. It is a no-holds barred look at a morally-bankrupt car salesman who gets a second chance at life, or rather a chance to get to know his better-half while still exploring all the decadent desires life has to offer. In this case, Fitz’s better-half is himself. After a freak accident literally split him in two, creating a separate identity in the form of his conscience known affectionately as Larry (Ernie Grunwald), Fitz is literally haunted by himself. Larry may be a stalker, a corporeal ghost, an angel, or simply a physical manifestation – or better yet, maybe Fitz is lying in a comma somewhere dreaming this whole wild-ride adventure up. Whatever the case may be, Larry is a constant presence in Fitz’s life – for better or for worse. [Read more…]
10 Questions with THE MIDDLE Star Atticus Shaffer
When your parents name you after a character in To a Kill a Mockingbird, a passion for reading probably shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. What should come as a surprise though is that Atticus Shaffer’s love of the printed word is partially responsible for where he finds himself today, playing Brick Heck, the hilarious youngest child on THE MIDDLE. We recently had the pleasure of catching up with the incredibly well-spoken young actor to find out what he’s reading now, which big-time movie star he’d next like to see play his teacher, and the fringe benefits that come with being one of the break-out stars of a hit ABC series.
