HAVEN Star Emily Rose Dishes on the Many Men of Audrey Parker
As fans of the Syfy series HAVEN already know, the key question to be answered this season is not who is Audrey Parker, but which of the many men in her life will she end up with. After last week’s surprising reveal in which Audrey and Chris Brody (Jason Priestly) took their blossoming relationship to the next level, this week’s upcoming episode entitled “Audrey Parker’s Day Off” gives Audrey a chance to look at how much her competing love interests mean to her. Given the chance (or perhaps curse) to relive the same day over and over again, Audrey assesses her relationships with Nathan, Duke and Chris. Talking time out of her busy schedule to chat with press, Emily Rose candidly shared her perspective on the show and many loves of Audrey Parker. [Read more…]

5 Reasons We’re Counting Down to Fox’s Launch of TERRA NOVA
This show wouldn’t have been possible five years ago.
Remember last spring when Fox announced that it was delaying the splashy post-AMERICAN IDOL premiere of TERRA NOVA due to the time constraints that went into creating what Network President Kevin Reilly then characterized as one of the most ambitious television series ever produced in both scope and scale. Well, he wasn’t kidding. “The visual effects team has literally created new technologies to make TERRA NOVA possible,” revealed executive producer Brannon Braga during the recent Television Critics Association Press Tour in Los Angeles. “They’re doing extremely advances things with motion capture and new forms of software to create dinosaurs, animals and digital set extensions that weren’t possible five years ago.”
Forget everything you know about time travel.
No Really. After already tiring of fielding questions with regards to the implications of travelling back in time on the future (thank-you-very-much-good-for-nothing-Butterfly-Effect), the TERRA NOVA production team of Brannon Braga and Rene Echevarria took it upon themselves to preemptively put the kibosh on any and all confusion by having our intrepid time travellers end up in a completely separate/alternate universe. Said Echevarria, “So many people asked about the Shannon family’s effect on history that we wanted to dispel that right away.” Added Braga, for all you know-it-alls out there who are about to follow up with the second most pressing question surrounding the inevitable ice age that will eventually make all of the colonist’s hard work obsolete, “Yes there is an asteroid coming in a while, [but you have to take into account] the futuristic technology that we don’t have today, so they’ll be prepared to deal.” [Read more…]

Are Barney and Robin Having the Time of Their Life? Judge For Yourself Courtesy of these First Look Photos From the Season 7 Premiere of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER
When we last left HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER back in May, Ted was considering a reconciliation with Zoey, Marshall and Lily were officially on the way to becoming parents, while Barney was revealed to have put his bachelor ways behind him in the not-to-distant future. That’s the good news. The bad news is that the slew of just-released photos from HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER’s upcoming seventh season premiere does little in the way of shedding some much needed light as to the identity of Barney’s future bride. But hey, don’t take our word for it, check out some more steamy first look photos and see what you can decipher after the jump. [Read more…]

Ask the Addict: Spoilers for BONES, GLEE, SUPERNATURAL & More!
In last week’s edition of Ask the Addict you teased that BONES would kick off the season with a first scene that promises to amaze people… Care to elaborate? — Jennifer
The TV Addict: Seeing as though we have absolutely no idea as to what Hart Hanson was referring to when he revealed that “the first scene shot is going to amaze people,” we actually wouldn’t care to elaborate. But, what we would be more than happy to do is let you in a little secret with regards to what said aforementioned opening scene won’t involve: House hunting! After-all, that little doozy of a discussion won’t go down until the fifth episode of the BONES’ season that will see Booth and Brennan, well actually more so the multi-million dollar-best selling author Brennan, house shopping online.
Any chance you can do this Gleek a solid by sharing some GLEE scoop? Particularly of the Rachel Berry/Lea Michele variety? — Dianna
The TV Addict: According to Lea Michele, who we were lucky enough to catch up with during FOX party at the recent Television Critics Association Press Tour in Los Angels, Rachel Berry fans are in for quite the treat this season. Teased Michele, “I know that I have some really great storylines with Chris Colfer and Darren Criss, I know that I’m going to be in the school musical — which I can’t reveal — but it’s one of my dream roles — not Fanny Brice — and I know that they’re going back to a lot of classic songs. From the first script it was not a lot of top 10 hits but older songs which I love and am so excited to sing and lots of Broadway so I’m super excited about that.” [Read more…]
