TV Review: AMERICAN IDOL – Season 10 – The Top 8 Perform

By PETER BROWN | 04/14/2011

Cast: Ryan Seacrest, Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler, Randy Jackson Network: Fox, airs Wednesdays and Thursdays Original Telecast: April 13, 2011 After what I believe (and many others) was a shocking elimination of Pia Toscano last week on the world’s greatest karaoke competition, AMERICAN IDOL, what is going to happen this week? I don’t know if I would say the competition is up for grabs at this point given Casey Abrams almost got the boot and Pia got the ax as well, but it definitely opens up a can of possibilities. Perhaps the biggest question is, will another female be eliminated […]Read On »

Stars: Sam Witwer, Meaghan Rath, Sam Huntington, Mark Pellegrino, Kristen Hager, Terry Kinney Writers: Jeremy Carver & Anna Fricke Director: Adam Kane Network: Syfy, Mondays @ 9 PM Airdate: April 11, 2011 BEING HUMAN ends its first season on a note of suitable completion, if not genius. It flips around who gets to be the hero of the piece from its British forerunner to somewhat tamer effect, but still generates enough good will for the main characters to keep us invested in their challenges, both separate and shared. After the previous episode culminated in vampire leader Bishop (Mark Pellegrino) staking […]Read On »

DANCING WITH THE STARS Recap: Sugar Ray knocked out of the Season 12 competition

By PAMELA HARLAND |

The Champ is down for good. Sugar Ray Leonard is knocked out of DANCING WITH THE STARS in week four. In a somewhat surprising ending, Leonard was ousted while lowest ranking celeb Kendra Wilkinson was saved, to her surprise and everyone else’s. Still, it was destined to be either Leonard or Wilkinson and somehow Wilkinson’s GIRLS NEXT DOOR fans pulled her through to week five. The rest of the show was standard. More exciting was the fact that pro dancer Karina Smirnoff’s Playboy pictorial is arriving on newstands this week, leaving many to wonder whether she is hurting partner Ralph […]Read On »

Most filmmakers are lucky to have one major franchise to their name in their career, but Wes Craven has managed to have two with A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET and the SCREAM movies to his name. Throw in THE HILLS HAVE EYES and LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT (which have both been remade from his seminal 1970s films) and the director has proven to be one of horror’s continual masters and a force to be reckoned with.   With SCRE4M (aka SCREAM 4), Craven returns for the fourth go-around to the venerable horror franchise that started in 1996 and has […]Read On »

The Family Volkoff” is the final straw. Just be rehashing these familiar themes, it comes off as incredibly annoying as it runs this familiar back and forth into the ground. In the last first […]Read On »
