“Band’s Visit” Tony Award Winner
NEW YORK—The biggest accolades in the world of theatre were handed out on Sunday, June 10 from Radio City Music Hall. The 72nd Annual Tony Awards were hosted by singers Sara Bareilles and Josh Groban. I must say I miss Neil Patrick Harris who was a hoot as the host of the ceremony in past years. I was skeptical...
“Food Network Star” Returns
HOLLYWOOD—A staple on Food Network has returned yet again. You know what that means: it’s time to crown a new star with “Food Network Star.” There is indeed one slight problem I have with the show: I can’t remember the last time the winner of the series actually had their own show. The last person I can vividly recall...
Ben Weston Returns To “Days!”
HOLLYWOOD—I have to admit it was his character that caused me to reignite my interest in the NBC soap “Days of Our Lives.” Do you have any guesses as to who I’m referring to? I’m referring to Ben Weston aka ‘The Neck Tie Killer’ played with devious perfection by Robert Scott Wilson. Ben was a character that came to...
Baby Kelly Arrives On “B&B!”
HOLLYWOOD—I promise, after this week I’m going to give my loyal readers a break from “The Bold and the Beautiful” because I sense the drama is about to come to a screeching halt. Why? It seems this love story between Liam, Steffy and Hope which audiences have endured for years is forever changed by the birth of a child....
Is “Big Brother 20” All-Stars?
HOLLYWOOD—My TV guilty pleasure of the summer is arriving in several weeks. Any guesses as to what reality-competition series I’m referring to? It’s the CBS hit “Big Brother.” I became a fan of this show during season 2 and have watched every season since except for season 9 (no need to discuss that train wreck America). It’s difficult to...
TV Hits Without Its Star
UNITED STATES—Last week I was stunned, and I mean utterly stunned with news that Andrew Lincoln aka Rick Grimes on “The Walking Dead” would exit the series after season 9. This is a devastating blow to one of my favorite shows on TV. I mean how in the hell is “The Walking Dead” expected to continue without one of...
“HAHN” Recap: ‘No Honor In This Game’
HOLLYWOOD—The Ice Queen cracked, at long last she finally cracked during this week’s episode of Tyler Perry’s “The Haves and the Have Nots.” Veronica Harrington could not take the sight of seeing Jeffery and Justin getting hot and heavy in the episode, ‘No Honor in this Game.” I can absolutely say it came to fruition for Veronica that her...
Bill Gets Busted On “B&B!”
HOLLYWOOD—It is very difficult to craft a villain on daytime television who is just evil to the core, but has just enough heart to make you feel a bit of sympathy for the character. However, Bill Spencer has been wicked to the core on “The Bold and the Beautiful.” Just when you think this guy has turned over a...
Margaux Dawson Arrives On “GH!”
HOLLYWOOD—A new face has arrived in Port Charles on “General Hospital.” I mean let’s be honest “GH” has had a lot of new faces lately, and they in my personal opinion has one of the most eclectic and powerhouse cast out of the four soaps still airing on television. By now most of you were well aware that Elizabeth...
Abbott Drama Escalates On “Y&R!”
HOLLYWOOD—We have indeed talked about the Abbott clan quite a bit on “The Young and the Restless” lately. I mean first it was the battle between Jack and Ashley over Jabot, then it was Graham and his involvement with Dina, then it was Kyle swooping in to take control of the company, Jack taking back the reins, only to...
