PopSugar — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 08:30:21 -0700

The TCAs wrapped up on Monday with a few fabulous shows from NBC. Zachary Levi and Josh Schwartz revealed fun news about Nicole Richie's role on Chuck, including her very exciting shower fight scene. We also heard from Brooke Shields who's thrilled to get back to work on Lipstick Jungle, especially with Mary Tyler Moore playing her mom. Later in the day we checked in with the ladies of Kath and Kim. Hilarious Selma Blair and Molly Shannon joked about playing a mother-daughter pair being so close in age in real life, saying that they tried to get Dakota Fanning, but the next best was Selma. We can't wait to watch all these shows, both new and old in the Fall and until then, head over to Buzz for more news on the day.

Are You Excited to See Nicole Richie's Shower Fight on Chuck?

PopSugar — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 16:00:59 -0700

Josh Schwartz took the TCA stage today and revealed a few exciting details on Nicole Richie's role in Chuck! In the fourth episode of the season, Sarah heads back to her high school reunion, with Chuck as her date, where she runs into former high school mean girl Nicole, whose husband is played by Ben Savage.

One thing leads to anther and the two women end up in a locker room fight scene! On the scene Zachary Levi told us,

"The shower’s full blast, bloodied, pipes breaking off… and you know it was crazy because Yvonne has been doing the whole fight scene thing for 13 plus episodes, but as far as I know it was Nicole’s first fight… well I don’t know, I didn’t watch The Simple Life, maybe they got crazy… but she was right there, step for step, they rehearsed their butts off, and had all the moves down."

Sounds like so much fun. So tell us, are you excited to see Nicole Richie on Chuck?

PopSugar — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:30:16 -0700

The crowd included old favorites from The Office, new all-stars like the cast of Kath and Kim, and a few select Heroes, including Hayden and Milo, who kept their distance. The Bravo reality stars kept us laughing all night at the soiree. Another special treat was the beautiful Bar Refaeli who was there to promote her new show Ironic Iconic America. She discussed the show, favorite designers, and just being a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl at heart - more on all that later.

As for the panels, the CW kicked things off Saturday with new guilty pleasures all around including 90210, the new Privileged and Stylista - think The Devil Wears Prada gone reality. Sunday the adorable cast of Friday Night Lights hit the stage to discuss their third season and taking the show to DirecTV.

How Gossip Girls, 90210ers and Weeds All Met

PopSugar — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 02:00:00 -0700

The TCA fun continued with the CW, Showtime and CBS stars kicking things off on Friday night at Boulevard 3. After hearing the exciting news that Shannen Doherty is returning to 90210, the new cast members kept things young and fresh posing together for the cameras. Emmy nominee Neil Patrick Harris is always a treat to spot, while Mary-Louise Parker spent the night close to her Weeds costar Justin Kirk in her cabana - possibly in an attempt to avoid an awkward run-in with her ex. The most fun of the night included a little chat with Leighton Meester who looked gorgeous in Zac Posen. On how things have changed from last year she said,

"It's really unexpected and amazing. I always wonder where I'm going to be this time next year. I'm thinking about it now - I wondered it last year at the same party. It's been a pleasant surprise, but I do have to say, we're not really changing anything. We're just doing a show that we really love, so we're just gonna keep going."

TCAs Get Private, Dirty, Desperate and a Little Bit Grey

Molly — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 04:03:00 -0700

Some of the big names at ABC hit the stage at the TCAs in LA this afternoon. Even though there was no specific Grey's Anatomy panel, the show was still the first thing on everyone's mind when Shonda Rhimes entered the room - check out all of that on Buzz. Sigh, love Peter Krause. As for Desperate Housewives, Eva's haircut is adorable in person, she got it since she was told to get a "mom" cut and didn't want to wear a wig, and we should expect to see her looking glamorous again by mid season. Mark Cherry also jokingly admitted how the 5 year flash forward got out, "I made the mistake of telling one of my actors, and the next thing I read it in the Times, going, 'Damn it, Marcia.'" From details of Ugly Betty in NYC - costumes by Pat Field who did the premiere! - to Dirty Sexy Money - with Lucy Liu! - to Private Practice - more medicine less drama! - there's so much more coverage over on Buzz.

Scrubs, Ashton, and Life on Mars All Go Big on ABC

Molly — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 04:04:00 -0700

Yesterday was another fun one at the TCAs in LA! Buzz and I buckled down to enjoy the first day of ABC panels, which included some swoonworthy celebrity sightings including Ashton Kutcher and newly fit Zach Braff. Check out Buzz for full news on the shows, but here are my thoughts on the day, shows, and whether or not Jonny Lee Miller wants to talk about Angelina Jolie:

The day kicked off with Eli Stone and the question on everyone's mind was Katie, Katie, Katie. We got a few more details on her role, but mostly we'll have to wait for Oct. 21 to see her return to TV singing and dancing.
When asked about Angelina Jolie, her former husband, Eli Stone star Jonny Lee Miller, said we'd have to call her. Ha.
Breaking news: The Scrubs folks are funny! While Bill Lawrence revealed that this will be Zach Braff's last year on the show, the whole group seemed excited about the move to ABC.
Love love love Sarah Chalke (who they kept joking is the mother on How I Met Your Mother). Lots more from the hilarious panel here.

To hear more about the Scrubs panel and Ashton (!!) plus photos of the day just read more

When asked about his recent weight loss, Zach Braff talked about being in the best shape of his life thanks to a certain someone he met about a year ago. Hmmm . . .
The whole Scrubs cast genuinely seems like they love each other, which is such a treat - Braff and Donald Faison kept talking about being best friends. Guy love between two guys. Plus, Bill Lawrence was super excited for Courteney Cox to join the cast for a few episodes, and Neil Flynn (the Janitor) jokingly revealed that his characters real name is "Zanzibar Buck Buck McPhee".
Sigh, Ashton. Nothing I love more than a man in a Red Sox hat. He was there to present the new game show he's producing, Opportunity Knocks which, briefly, is a contest about how well you know details about your family. When asked how he would do on it, Ashton said Demi would do better than he would since women are more attentive and compassionate.
When asked about whether the show was his idea, Ashton talked about no one "owning" ideas and how we're just lucky to be able to "manage" them. He also talked about having no regrets about Punk'd, but enjoying doing something more family friendly fun too. So sweet hearing him talk about his girls, awww!

Expect Fringe, 24 Excitement and Jon Voight Talks Angelina

Molly — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 05:05:00 -0700

BuzzSugar and I are down in LA for the TCAs, starting with yesterday's Fox presentations! Highlights included seeing Joshua Jackson promote Fringe, even if it was only via satellite, hearing Jerry O'Connell joke about his Tom Cruise impression, Brian Austin Green all hot and tan and - get this - hearing Jon Voight talk about Angelina Jolie and the new twins while promoting 24! Check out Buzz for more in depth coverage of all the panels and details on the new and returning shows, and here are some more of my observations from Fox's presentations and party last night on Santa Monica Pier:

Let's cut to the chase, here's what Jon Voight had to say about Angelina and those babies: "Well, the most exciting thing is to have new children -- the most beautiful thing in the world and the most exciting thing. And when they're part of your own family it's even more exciting. . . I have not heard from her directly but I've heard little messages from her. My niece has heard but that's the only thing I know about. . .but I'm so excited to have a boy and a girl. I love her." When asked if he will visit, "As soon as I'm allowed. . . When Angie says come on over, I'll do it."
Joshua Jackson and his Fringe co-stars were off filming in New York, but the general feeling about the show seems to be super excited. JJ Abrams was on the panel with his cowriters, but Pacey still managed to bring a hilarious lighthearted feeling to the day even just on the big screen. When one reporter said that the cow in the pilot stole the show a few times, Josh was quick to come back by reminding her that even though he wasn't in the room...he could still hear her.
When asked whether he's heard from Tom Cruise since his parody video, Jerry O'Connell said thankfully not.
Party highlight: playing carnival games with (and beating) Kal Penn. Also, Amanda Bynes showing up with Seth McFarlane causing more than a few whispers.
Things got a little, uh, interesting with Karl Rove in particular at the Fox News panel - more about that over on Citizen.

To hear more from the panels including SYTYCD news and how Kiefer and Brian Austin Green looked just read more

Sad So You Think You Can Dance news about Jessica's injuries that mean Comfort is back, though Nigel wasn't about to say anything more about it.
Ladies (and gents) love those Prison Break boys Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell.
During the Do Not Disturb panel, Jerry O'Connell lamented the fate of Carpoolers, but said that despite it leaving him "depressed in his underwear" at home for a couple months, it opened the door for this new job and got the attention of the new show's director Jason Bateman and writer Abraham Higginbotham.
Brian Austin Green stayed almost silent during the Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, though still looked pret-ty hot and very tan.
Even though Kiefer was too unbelievably mobbed the moment he walked into the informal coffee break session with the 24 stars for me to get a word, it was still so great to see him back as Jack Bauer in the preview for the 24: Exile special.

There will be lots more to come as the week and TCA presentations roll on so check back here and on Buzz for all the coverage. Already starting to get excited again for Fall TV!
