Winter TCA 2013 Wrap-Up: Renewals, Revelations and Surprise Kisses!
Now that the Winter 2013 Television Critic’s Association Press Tour is finally over, it seemed like a good time to recall some of the choice moments over the 14-day star-studded event. Since it would be nearly impossible to recount all the stand-out moments and all the cool shows upcoming this year, we have selected only a few to showcase.
The Kiss
Nothing was more buzzed about than the unexpected kiss between stars Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy at the Fox panel for THE FOLLOWING. It has been said that a picture is worth a thousand words, but truly you had to have been there for the impact of that memorable moment to be felt. The ease with Kevin Back just casually leaned over and planted a kiss on his co-star was a testament to the strong bond between them. Viewers may be buzzing about the underlying sexual energy between their characters on screen in THE FOLLOWING, but that kiss was a pure delight for those who got to see it in person. So does anyone remember that THE FOLLOWING is a show about serial killers at this point? (THE FOLLOWING makes its debut on Monday, January 21st at 9PM on Fox.) [Read more…]

SUITS Mid-Season TV Preview: Old Loves, New Threats and Shocking Revelations Bring More Trouble to Pearson Hardman
Before the mid-season hiatus, SUITS left fans and viewers with a classic “high noon” stand-off between the nefarious Daniel Hardman (David Constabile) and the firm. With Louis Litt (Rick Hoffman) being a key player for both sides, Jessica Pearson (Gina Torres) and Harvey Specter (Gabriel Macht) eventually prevailed in ousting Hardman. But while the firm was in the midst of a partnership battle, Mike Ross (Patrick Adams) was facing a personal crisis when his beloved grandmother died – sending Mike into the waiting arms of an old flame. So while Jessica and Harvey had every reason to be celebrating, Mike was spiraling out of control; and when Rachel appeared at Mike’s door and saw him with Tess, his ex-girlfriend, it was an excruciating moment, as we knew Mike had once again trampled on Rachel’s heart.
