HOLLYWOOD—It’s been a whirlwind summer of surprises on the CBS reality competition series “Big Brother 17,” but after more than 98 days in the house a winner has been selected. It came down to our final three: Steve the genius, Vanessa , the poker player, and Liz, the twin. In the end the jury decided the person who deserved...

HOLLYWOOD—It was the series that took the TV world by surprise in January 2015, and less than 9 months since its premiere, “Empire” is back for round two. Yes, the show that mixes music, family and drama unlike anything seen on television is ready to shake things up again. The second season premiere episode titled, “The Devils are Here” picks...

HOLLYWOOD—Last season Tyler Perry’s “If Loving You Is Wrong” ended on a cliffhanger that most fans of the series were able to decipher.

HOLLYWOOD—Wow, yep that’s the only thing I could truly say about the final ramp-up week of “Big Brother 17.” With Julia finally being pushed out the door, Vanessa came into power; perhaps a bad move in her game in my opinion. She had both Liz and Austin on her side, as well as Steve and Johnny Mac. By choosing...

HOLLYWOOD—It was an interesting battle at the box-office this weekend as new releases “The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials” and “Black Mass” went toe-to-toe with moviegoers. In the end, it was the sequel, “The Scorch Trials”, that rose to the top with $30.3 million. That is slightly below what its predecessor earned in 2014 with $32.5 million. With a decent...

HOLLYWOOD—Awards season is slowly creeping upon us. The 67th Primetime Emmy Awards were held on Sunday, September 20 in hot and steamy Los Angeles. The ceremony was hosted by “Saturday Night Live” alum Andy Samberg. He relied on plenty of sketches to deliver laughs to the audience, which were funny at times, but not something I’ll be talking about...

HOLLYWOOD—Hollywood folks used to call Toronto Film Festival "Hollywood North" because of all the films being shown there. The Toronto International Film Festival, which is referred to as TIFF, is a major public film festival held every September in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
