Do Celeb Voices in Video Games Make You Want to Buy?
Sometimes, you know in advance that celebs will be lending their voices to video games. Take Afro Samurai for example. Taken from a TV show, it was only natural that Samuel L.

Movie Preview: Michelle Monaghan, Nathan Fillion in Trucker
When I saw Trucker at the Tribeca Film Festival back in 2008, I acknowledged that it's not the world's finest movie, but it was definitely one of my favorites of all the festival movies I saw. It's a relatively quiet indie drama starring Michelle Monaghan as Diane Ford, a tough truck driver who enjoys her carefree life of trucking, bars and one-night stands — until her 11-year-old son shows up one day. Their relationship is rocky, and Diane is none too pleased to suddenly shoulder so much responsibility, but as long as her ex-husband (Benjamin Bratt) is hospitalized, mother and son are stuck with each other.
TV Tonight: The Castle Finale
Sometimes I don't understand the people who become mega-fans of something that has only barely begun. I've often wondered: How can you possibly be that attached to something already? Well, I'm eating those words now because I'm a little broken up about the fact that tonight's episode of Castle is the finale.
Nathan Fillion: Actor, Gamer, Geek
Maybe it's just my uber crush on Captain Malcolm Reynolds from Firefly, or the fact that he starred in the biggest online sensation of last year, but I just can't get over Nathan Fillion. And while he graces the cover in this month's Geek Monthly, he explains why he's been the most requested cover boy in the magazine's history: "I'm big with women, and I'm big with geeks." Duh.
Nathan Fillion on Playing the Childlike Richard Castle
Castle, which premieres tonight on ABC, stars fan favorite Nathan Fillion as Richard Castle, a crime novelist who finds himself sucked into assisting the New York Police Department when a murderer starts carrying out crimes based on scenes from his books. There, he finds himself working (and flirting) alongside Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) while also navigating the relationships with his Broadway diva mother (Susan Sullivan) and wise-beyond-her-years teenage daughter (Molly Quinn). A few days ago, Fillion hopped on the phone to chat with me about the appeal of Castle, what it's like to be a leading man again, and whether there will ever be another Dr.

First Look: ABC's Castle Starring Nathan Fillion
What's that? Nathan Fillion back on my TV screen? Indeed.
ABC Picks Up Five Shows for Midseason
The Fall TV season hasn't even started yet, and already, at least one network is looking a few months ahead. ABC, which only has one new scripted show (Life on Mars) on its Fall schedule, has picked up three dramas and two comedies for midseason.
Among them: Rob Thomas's Cupid, his remake of his own 1998 show, which now stars Sarah Paulson and Bobby Cannavale (at right).
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog Is Awesome, and Now Working Just Fine
I would have posted this yesterday when the first act of Joss Whedon's online musical series was available online except for the fact that it wasn't actually available for most of the day. All the fans (like me) who were lured in by the funny preview for the series were trying to view the first webisode, and too many curious eyes caused the site to slow to a halt.
Now it's working fine and it is my pleasure to announce that Act I of this funny, bizarre musical starring Neil Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillion is awesome.
