HOLLYWOOD—The new cast for the 21st season of the ABC reality hit “Dancing with the Stars” was unleashed on Good Morning America on Wednesday, September 2. While many of the contestants hitting the ballroom floor were leaked to the press in the past week or so, there were still a few surprises this year. Celebrities this season include Backstreet Boy...

HOLLYWOOD—I must say, I thoroughly enjoyed the first season of the hit MTV series “Scream.” Some weeks plenty of bodies dropped, while other weeks the audience got the opportunity to get much closer to the characters and the narrative. This week marked the end of the first season with the episode ‘Revelations’ as the audience discovered the face behind...

HOLLYWOOD—Last week’s episode of Tyler Perry’s “The Haves and the Have Nots” ended with an epic cliffhanger as Dianna Whinchil dropped a bomb on the residents of Savannah and Jim Cryer by revealing his secret children via Celine on live television. Yeah, to say Jim, Maggie, Katheryn and David were caught off guard is a huge understatement. The latest episode...

HOLLYWOOD—After Liz’s beyond boring reign as HOH, fans had to endure another week of boring gameplay as Austin, yep, Austin rose to power. Austin and the twins, Liz and Julia, had deals with virtually everyone in the BB house, so picking nominees would be no easy task. When he made it clear to Vanessa that Meg and James were...

HOLLYWOOD—It’s the one award show where something epic is bound to happen every year. The MTV Video Music Awards have always been known to have performances or moments that leave everyone talking. Of course we all remember the 2009 awards show when Kanye West stormed the stage and interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video. Jitters were already...

HOLLYWOOD—A new mystery is beginning to unfold on the NBC soap “Days of Our Lives.” Yes, many have been arguing for the past five years that the soap opera genre is dead, but I beg to differ. It’s all about storytelling. If you weave a good story, you are able to keep audiences tuned in for weeks, months or...

HOLLYWOOD—“Suits” has become one of my guilty pleasures since season two. This is a series that finds a way to keep viewers on their toes with each opportunity. The summer finale, ‘Faith’ opened with a heartbreaking moment with a flashback where the audience got to see Mike Ross grieve the loss of his parents at a very young edge,...

HOLLYWOOD—Has the murderer been caught on “Scream: The TV Series?” Well, just because something seems easy doesn’t mean that is always the case. Last week Mr. Branson was arrested by authorities after being caught canoodling with Brooke. To make matters worse, Brooke was attacked, just as Mr. Branson vanished. While the authorities suspected the killer had been nabbed, Emma was...

HOLLYWOOD—Last week’s episode of Tyler Perry’s “The Haves and the Haves Nots” ended with Maggie and David finding themselves caught in a trap. The latest episode ‘Candace’s Closing’ picked up with David pouring out his heart and soul to Maggie about his love for his troubled wife, Veronica. Instead of confronting his wife, David hurried off back to the office....

HOLLYWOOD—Well, well, after the double eviction chaos, I thought week 8 would be an interesting one in the “Big Brother 17” compound, but it turned out to be one the biggest snore fests this season in my opinion. Of course, the HOH competition would be something silly considering all the chaos that occurred during the double eviction. The competition was...
