PERSONs OF INTEREST: Showrunner Jonah Nolan and Star Amy Acker Tease Season Two of the Hit CBS Series
As if the first couple of episodes of its second season were not enough to get our hearts pumping, PERSON OF INTEREST is looking to kick up things even further as the season continues. There will be a return appearance of Leon Sung (Ken Leung), more drama involving the nefarious Root (Amy Acker), and the crime boss Elias (Enrico Colantoni) continues to circle around as well. So our heroes Finch, Reese, Carter and Fusco are certain to have their hands full juggling not only all the people they need to save or stop as The Machine generates numbers, but also keeping one step ahead of their enemies as the net seems to be shrinking around them. Plus, just how autonomous is The Machine? Will it go rogue or is it loyal to its god-like ability to see-all and know-all and to keep helping save lives? [Read more…]

Jay Ryan Dishes on the Danger of the Beast in His new CW Series BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
Last week introduced viewers to the murky world of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, a world where Vincent Keller (Jay Ryan) hides in the shadows, trying to keep the beast in side him at bay. But in a twist of fate, a young woman he had rescued years before came back into his life in such a way that he could no longer hide from the outside world. Detective Catherine Chandler (Kristin Kreuk) may not have intended to unearth the one person who may hold the key to her mother’s unsolved murder, but recognizing Vincent from that fateful day, she could not stay away. Alas, this only tipped off a government organization that had been searching for Vincent and now they are both caught in the crosshairs as Muirfield circles closer and closer.
In an exclusive interview, star Jay Ryan took a few moments to share the inner turmoil that Vincent struggles with and what kind of threat the beast within still poses to everyone around him. [Read more…]

The Royce Girls! Cheryl Hines and Carly Chaikin Preview SUBURGATORY’s Second Season Shenanigans
In the sunny world of Chatswin, everything is a bit brighter, a little more colorful and filled with characters that bring a smile into our lives. Featuring the two widely-diverse families of down-to-earth George and Tessa Altman versus the fun-loving-frivolity of Dallas and Dalia Royce, hilarity ensues as they try to coexist in a tightly-knit community. George (Jeremy Sisto) had brought his teenage daughter Tessa (Jane) away from the bright-lights and fast-pace of the big city hoping to give her some solid roots and provide examples of good family upbringing. His intentions were well-meant, but Chatswin is a world unto itself, and a healthy lifestyle in Chatswin can mean keeping up with the uber-rich and adapting to an unexpectedly wild level of conformity.
