CHUCK was just picked up for a fifth and final season and ASSIGNMENT X had the opportunity to interview Linda Hamilton yesterday to ask her about the pick-up. “It got picked up for thirteen apparently,” said Hamilton.  “It was one of those things where I wanted to call my people and ask if it’s true even though they sent it to me.” As to whether or not she’s returning to CHUCK Season 5 next year, Hamilton teases, “I’m looking forward to going back next year. I want even more! It’s hard once you’ve started to sit back and not do […]Read On »

Linda Hamilton in CHUCK - Season 4 | &Copy 2011 NBC/Mitchell Haaseth

Linda Hamilton is an actress that needs no introduction. The woman who helped define strong female archetype roles for women in cinema is most famous for her portrayal of Sarah Connor in THE TERMINATOR and TERMINATOR 2: JUDGEMENT DAY. Hamilton is a beautiful, intelligent and strong woman, but most who would expect her to be like her “tough-as-nails” screen heroine are in for a surprise. The actress is actually a free spirit, and a self-proclaimed Hippie with a quick smile and fantastic sense of humor. ASSIGNMENT X was lucky enough to get the chance to talk to Hamilton this week […]Read On »

  Stars: Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder Writers: Turi Meyer & Al Septin & Michael Narducci, Developed by Kevin Williamson & Julie Plec, Based on the book by L.J. Smith Director: John Behring Network: The CW, airs Thursday nights Original Telecast: May 12th, 2010 Well, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES season finale was not at all what I expected, in a GOOD way! “As I Lay Dying” I figured would just be a dénouement to the season which had already seen a lot of character death and loss and mayhem, but instead there was a lot to this episode that I […]Read On »

Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays Original Telecast: May 12, 2011 Well, the contest is anyone’s ball game after losing James Durbin on the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL. This was a complete shock. James has never been in the bottom at all. He was the only one to never be in the bottom. Yet, he’s gone. I figured that James was a lock for the finals. He was and is such a good singer. He rocked the house every single time he was on stage. I can’t believe that […]Read On »

Exclusive: CHUCK star Zachary Levi on the Season 4 finale

While it’s looking really good that NBC’s perennial bubble show CHUCK may be renewed for a 13 episode Season 5 (that’s what the Hollywood rumor mill is speculating today), meanwhile, ASSIGNMENT X spoke with Zachary Levi before an official announcement had been determined and asked about how the finale will wrap up, cancellation or not. “For our finale, we will still tell our finale no matter what,” he admits. “We usually go with the story we want to tell and we tell that story. We don’t want to leave anyone out on a limb, we don’t want to hurt our […]Read On »

Song Reviews: AMERICAN IDOL – TOP 4 SEASON 10 album

After last night’s strange episode of AMERICAN IDOL – Season 10, where the Top 4 contestants sang two songs apiece (one that inspires, the other from the Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller songbook), it was clear the judges are still all over the map when it comes to criticism and what an IDOL should exactly be (okay, one map, everyone is great EXCEPT Haley). While James Durbin, Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery have gotten pretty much a free ride to the Top 4 with nary a critique (especially when they blow hard), Haley Reinhart has had to claw her way into her […]Read On »

TV Review: SOUTH PARK – Season 15 – “Royal Pudding”

SOUTH PARK - Season 15 - "Royal Pudding" | ©2011 Comedy Central

Writer: Trey Parker Director: Trey Parker Network: Comedy Central, airs Wednesday nights Original Telecast: May 11, 2011 I’m all for SOUTH PARK when it likes to mix things up and spotlight secondary characters. However, when it’s done as poorly as “Royal Pudding,” it makes you wonder what creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone were thinking. With last week’s “Funnybot” being a bit of a mess, “Royal Pudding” fully commits to being an outright disaster by essentially being a one-note SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE skit that drags on for thirty minutes. The potential for humor is here – essentially a spoof of […]Read On »

Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays Original Telecast: May 11, 2011 We are down to nearly the home stretch on the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL. And lucky the theme of the night was not Randy Jackson’s “Who is in it to win it” but more about the home stretch and who will either falter or bring home the bacon. Each four contestants sang two songs again tonight: The first, songs that are meaningful to the contestants; the second, songs from the writing combo of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller […]Read On »

Stars: Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Mark Salling, Jenna Ushkowitz Writer: Ian Brennan Director: Eric Stoltz Network: Fox, airs Tuesday nights Original Telecast: May 10, 2011 GLEE seems to have gotten off the preachy wagon and somewhat more on track with this week’s episode “Prom Queen”.  Of course since there are lots of gay themes this week, conservative America led by the sow of the decade Victoria Jackson will consider this episode part of the dreaded “Gay Agenda”. Incidentally, if I could figure out what […]Read On »
