{alltv} Fox's "The Five" a surprising summer hit

Barnes&Noble.com 

NEW YORK (TheWrap.com) - Could "The Five" have a permanent place in Fox News 5 p.m. hour?

The show, a summer replacement for "Glenn Beck," is down only slightly in viewers, despite a lack of marquee names. In August, its first full month on the air, it averaged 1.5 million viewers, with 369,000 in 25-54 demographic, according to Nielsen.

In Beck's last full month, June, he scored 1.6 million viewers, 387,000 of them in the demographic.

"The Five" is down 6 percent overall and 5 percent among 25- to 54-year-olds

While Beck's show was intensely focused on his personality, theories and issues, "The Five" features a rotating cast of Fox News personalities talking about the day's events.

The show has earned more viewers at 5 p.m. than its two cable news rivals combined: CNN's "The Situation Room With Wolf Blitzer" averages 711,000 total viewers and 173,000 in the demographic, while "Hardball With Chris Matthews" averages 685,000 viewers and 157,000 in the demographic. Beck also handily beat his 5 p.m. rivals.

{alltv} "Boardwalk Empire" promises memorable premiere

Barnes&Noble.com 

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Boardwalk Empire" will return September 25 with an insurrection, an arrest, and a terrifying visit from the Ku Klux Klan, HBO announced on Wednesday.

The Season 2 premiere, titled "21," will find Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi), Atlantic City's man behind the curtain, contending with trouble in his inner circle. Chalky White, meanwhile, suffers a life-threatening attack from the Klan, and Margaret Schroeder, Nucky's on-again off-again squeeze, contends with her son's disciplinary problems. It airs at 9 p.m.

In its statement about the premiere date, HBO also dropped some hints about the threats to Nucky's empire on several fronts, from law enforcement to rival criminals:

"Nucky finds his hold on Atlantic City weakened, first by state agents who arrest him for election fraud and ransack his office, then by members of his own inner circle and even his family, who align with Jimmy's father, the aging Commodore Louis Kaestner, in an attempt to oust him altogether," HBO's statement reads. "Meanwhile, mobsters like Arnold Rothstein, Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky and Al Capone wait in the wings, looking for the chance to grab a bigger piece of Nucky's pie."

Sounds like someone could use a drink.

{alltv} 'Supernatural': New casting probably means more Crowley

Barnes&Noble.com 
"Supernatural" is adding a new bad guy to the mix for at least one episode this season, which is interesting enough in and of itself. But it's who the new character associates with that really has us curious.

According to EW, James Patrick Stuart -- who played AnnaLynne McCord's dad on the first season of "90210" -- is set to play an evildoer named Richard Roman in the season's sixth episode. "Supernatural" executive producer Sera Gamble describes the character as "a very canny, charming, well-connected new adversary."

Here's the kicker, again from Gamble via EW: "Crowley has sought him out specifically to join forces with him to pursue common interests. Put it this way: Crowley doesn't bring a muffin basket to just anyone."

Yep, Crowley, as in
Mark Sheppard, who previously would only confirm that he'd be in the season premiere. (There's a brief glimpse of him in the teaser The CW released last week.) We're curious to see what kind of guy makes Crowley that interested (and if he actually brings a muffin basket).

Stuart, who's also had recurring parts on "CSI" and "The Closer," is only slated for one episode of "Supernatural" at the moment. But based on what Gamble has said about Richard, we wouldn't be surprised if he made a return appearance later in the season.

"Supernatural" premieres Friday, Sept. 23.

{alltv} 'How I Met Your Mother' Season 7 premiere promo: Big questions, bigger dance moves

Barnes&Noble.com

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgkz1Z3mTA0

Reasons to be excited for the Sept. 19 Season 7 premiere of "How I Met Your Mother" are many -- and not just because the veteran comedy marks its return with a full-hour of new programming.

CBS recently released the first promo for the premiere, "The Best Man," and it seems likely to deliver on all the promises of sexy dancing and nuptial backdrops as the photos we recently caught. It also poses two big questions...

#1: Who will get married? Calm down. We're going to have to go with the absentee Punchy (Chris Romanski), whose wedding seems to be setting for all the non-flash-forward events.

#2: Who will hook up? Really. Could they? Robin (Cobie Smulders) and Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) are looking awfully comfortable out there on the dance floor, but with the gang now on a crash course with his own wedding, we expect the show to tread at least a little lightly around a possible Brobin reunion so soon in the season.

One burning question we can answer already, however, is that there will definitely be at least one "Lion King" reference. Watch and enjoy.

{alltv} 'Dancing With the Stars': Oddsmakers favor Elisabetta Canalis, not Chaz Bono or Nancy Grace

Barnes&Noble.com

If you frequent an off-track betting facility that takes wagers on the outcome of ABC's "Dancing With the Stars," please tell us where that is... and you might want to pay close attention to the these numbers.

Oddsmakers at Bodog.com, who successfully favored Season 12 victor NFL wide receiver Hines Ward early in the competition, has released its stats on the recently announced Season 13 cast. The favorites might catch you a bit off guard, but the long-shots only seem to validate our suspicions.

The least likely seem to be Chaz Bono, the series' first transgender contestant, and TV judge Nancy Grace, who have been placed at 20/1 and 18/1, respectively.

Up at the top, there's model, actress and George Clooney ex Elisabetta Canalis with 3/1, followed closely by former "Queer Eye" star Carson Kressley (4/1) and "Hills" alum Kristin Cavallari (5/1). [Editor's note: That trio would surely make for the most bizarre finale in "DWTS" history.]

These odds, released Tuesday (Aug. 30), might stand a little tweaking after Wendesday's announcement of the pro pairings. Returning cast member Derek Hough, who sat out last season after winning his third mirrorball trophy, doesn't seem likely to let partner Ricki Lake go as soon she's predicted to leave.

And Canalis might have an uphill battle working with newcomer Val Chmerkovskiy. Audiences aren't terribly familiar with either of them -- though can you imagine what Maks would do if his little brother won the title before him?

Here's the complete list of odds:

Elisabetta Canalis - 3/1
Carson Kressley - 4/1
Kristin Cavallari - 5/1
Chynna Phillips - 6/1
Robert Kardashian - 15/2
Hope Solo - 8/1
David Arquette - 10/1
Ron Artest - 10/1
J.R. Martinez - 12/1
Ricki Lake - 15/1
Nancy Grace - 18/1
Chaz Bono - 20/1

Have any early favorites? And how do you think the pro partners might affect their chances?

{alltv} Will President Obama's Address Pre-Empt GOP Debate?

Barnes&Noble.com 

President Barack Obama has asked to address Congress on his promised jobs program on Wednesday, Sept. 7 at 8 p.m., the same time as a scheduled Republican debate among presidential hopefuls. And House Speaker John Boehner has refused.

"It is coincidental," said White House press secretary Jay Carney at a press briefing Wednesday. "There are a lot of factors that go into scheduling a joint session of Congress for a speech. You can never find a perfect time ... There are many channels, there are many opportunities for people to watch the president, and obviously for people to watch the debate."

The debate (to be co-moderated by Brian Williams on MSNBC) isn't the only thing the president is encroaching on. CBS plans to air a new episode of Big Brother, NBC has a new Minute to Win It, and Fox has its new series Buried Treasure.

Politico and others reported that Boehner, an Ohio Republican, rejected Obama's request, saying the next day would be better "so that we can ensure there will be no parliamentary or logistical impediments that might detract from your remarks."

What really might detract from the president's remarks, though, is that the next day has the annual Thursday prime-time opener for NBC's Sunday Night Football — the highest-rated program on broadcast television in the 2010-11 season's first half.

{alltv} TNT Plans a H.I.K.E. With Forest Whitaker

Barnes&Noble.com 

Forest Whitaker, most recently seen in front of the camera on CBS' short-lived spin-off Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior, is back behind the scenes for his next TV project.

TNT is developing the drama project H.I.K.E. with Whitaker's Spirit Dance Entertainment production company. But Whitaker is not only an executive producer on it, he's also co-writing the drama along with Amanda Green (Law & Order: SVU). Marc Levin is a consulting producer.

H.I.K.E., which stands for "Home Invasion Kidnapping Enforcement," will follow tough female cop Maggie Tarrant as she runs a Phoenix-based law enforcement team while simultaneously juggling her home life as a wife and mother.

Whitaker has been busy in recent years splitting his time between acting and producing. He was also an executive producer on Sundance Channel's Brick City.

{alltv} THE WALT DISNEY COMPANY TO LAUNCH LOCAL PRODUCTION OF DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES IN TURKEY

Barnes&Noble.com

Istanbul - (August 31, 2011) - The Walt Disney Company Turkey today announced plans for a local production of the iconic hit series "Desperate Housewives," bringing a new take on the series' darkly comedic view of suburbia to Turkish audiences. The series, to be known as "Umutsuz Ev Kadinlari," will be co-produced by Medyapim and Disney, and is to air on free to air channel Kanal D later this year.

The original "Desperate Housewives" won both the 2005 and 2006 Golden Globe Awards for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy, and was created by Marc Cherry and produced by ABC Studios. The series is broadcast in more than 200 territories around the world, where it has been one of the most popular U.S. TV shows in recent history. The ABC Television Network recently announced that this upcoming season - its eighth - will be the final one for the original series.

Since 2006, four different versions have been produced for Latin American audiences. These are "Amas de Casa Desesperadas," the Argentinean version (in Spanish, for broadcast in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay); the Colombian/Ecuadorian version (in Spanish, broadcast in Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Panama, and also sold to Japan); the U.S. Hispanic version (for broadcast in U.S., Mexico, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic); and "Donas de Casa Desesperadas," the Brazilian version (in Portuguese, for broadcast in Brazil).

Sinan Ceylan, Country Manager, The Walt Disney Company Turkey, Greece and Cyprus said: "We're extremely excited to be co-producing a local version of the hit series 'Desperate Housewives,' as it offers us the opportunity to connect with Turkish audiences by telling a locally relevant and entertaining story with an all star Turkish cast, using the universal stories and characters created by ABC Studios. This announcement demonstrates our commitment to investing in the Turkish market and supporting the local entertainment industry."

Fatih Aksoy, CEO, Medyapim, added: "I believe 'Desperate Housewives' has one of the best scripts ever written for television. When adapting to Turkish, we are ensuring that we keep up with the level of the original values of the script and will pursue as excellent a production as it has been in the U.S."

The series' well-known Turkish cast includes Songul Oden ("Gumus") as Susan (to be called Suzan), Bennu Yildirimlar as Bree (called Berrin), Evrin Solmaz as Gabrielle (called Yildiz), and Ceyda Duvenci as Lynette (called Leyla). The series will be filmed on location in Istanbul, where a local "Wisteria Lane" has been found. Production will closely follow the format and storylines of the original US version, with a uniquely Turkish flavour.

The Walt Disney Company has leveraged other ABC Studios-produced scripted series for local production across the world; including versions of "Grey's Anatomy," "The Golden Girls," "According to Jim" and "Hope & Faith" in Turkey, local versions of "The Golden Girls" in Russia, Greece, Israel and Spain, and "Brothers & Sisters" and "Grey's Anatomy" in Colombia.

Performing in elaborate costumes runs in the family for Chaz Bono.

So what does his mom, Cher, think of his upcoming turn on Dancing with the Stars?

"She really thought it was great that I was doing it and wanted to know how I was feeling about it, if I was nervous and how it was going," Bono told Ryan Seacrest Wednesday on his radio show, On Air with Ryan Seacrest.

Not that Cher had any advance warning. Bono said he had to keep the secret until last weekend because, as he tells it, "ABC put the fear of God into me."

The pairs were announced on Wednesday and Bono, the show's first transgender contestant, will be dancing with Lacey Schwimmer.

"We kind of instantly hit it off," Bono says of his partner. "She has a great attitude for teaching me."

{alltv} Sweet Home Alabama Star Finds "Something Special"

Wal-Mart.com USA, LLC

The season finale of Sweet Home Alabama airs Thursday (Sept. 1) at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Sweet Home Alabama star Devin Grissom has made her final choice, yet she's staying tight-lipped about who it is.

"At this point, we're not allowed to be seen together or talk to each other very much," Grissom tells CMT Insider. "It's going to be interesting to see how it progresses once everything can be revealed, but I definitely feel like I found something special."

The remaining finalists are Adam Moyer, a horse trainer from Tennessee, and Tribble Reese, a former quarterback who is a bartender and entrepreneur in Birmingham, Ala.

Because the series began with 20 men -- 10 from the city and 10 from the country -- that means Grissom has broken a few hearts along the way.

"A breakup is hard no matter what," she says. "Even if it's two people sitting alone in a room, it's tough. It's hard to break up with someone. I felt for these guys. They're getting broken up with on national television. That makes it even harder for me, too, especially when some of the guys would come back and be like, 'Please give me second chance!' I was like, 'Oh, that makes me hurt.'"

However, Grissom adds, "I definitely got good at it by the end. But it didn't make it any easier. It was definitely still hard, but on some of the other dating shows like this, you give them a token. And the ones that don't get it, it's just like, 'Sayonara, see you later.' I think that's definitely something unique about this show. It's a lot more personal and really is a lot more real. I have real relationships with these guys, so I had to end them in a real, respectable way."

Grissom only spent time with the men on dates or in group scenes and rarely saw them at all when the cameras weren't rolling. Thus, she only began to discern the heated rivalries between her suitors when the series began airing. Most of the internal drama between the men takes place in the Fairhope, Ala., house where they all lived together.

"This process is such an unconventional way of dating," she says, "so it amplifies everything. You're getting into these relationships, and they're progressing so much faster than any normal relationships would. You're under such different circumstances if you're dating two guys at once. You don't want them to talk to each other. You don't want them to know they're dating the same girl. But all of mine were living in the same house together."

Grissom says it was difficult to send home the first few contestants because she didn't know them very well. But as the show progressed, the men's personalities began to shine through.

"I love seeing how they are just being themselves," she says. "I definitely formed relationships with all of them. Obviously, some of them are stronger than others. Some I formed were just friendships, but they're still great friendships. I talk to pretty much every single one of these guys still."

Looking back, she concludes, "Toward the end it got really hard for me. I'm not typically an emotional person, and on the [final] decision, I got teary. I cried, for sure. It was tough. There were definitely real relationships there."

{alltv} Obama interviewed for TV special on Bin Laden hunt

Barnes&Noble.com 

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The effort to hunt down and kill Osama bin Laden will be featured in a two-hour television program, including interviews with President Barack Obama and senior counter-terrorism officials, the History channel said on Wednesday.

"Targeting Bin Laden" will be broadcast on September 6, and use dramatic reenactments and news footage to look at the behind-the-scenes work over several administrations to find the al Qaeda leader.

History said the pogram marked the first time that senior officials in the White House situation room had spoken at length on television about the bin Laden operation.

National Security advisor Tom Donilon, former CIA director Michael Vincent Hayden, and White House Chief Counter-Terrorism advisor John O. Brennan were among those who have been interviewed for the program.

Bin Laden, the mastermind behind the September11 2001 attacks on New York and Washington D.C, was killed by U.S. special forces in Pakistan on May 1.

Obama spoke in a "60 Minutes" TV interview in May about the bin Laden operation, but the upcoming History program is one of the first in-depth TV treatments of the effort to capture him.

Oscar-winning director Kathryn Bigelow is also working on a feature film about the hunt for the al Qaeda leader for release in late 2012.

{alltv} Maroon 5 making moves thanks to 'Jagger,' 'Voice'

Barnes&Noble.com 

NEW YORK (AP) — Before joining NBC's "The Voice," Adam Levine says some folks assumed he was some "singing bimbo that likes girls." So he's grateful to the show for providing a bit of clarification on his image.

"It was a nice opportunity to show my personality — that I have a brain," said the lead singer of Maroon 5. "It's also true: I am a bimbo and I like to sing and I like girls, but there's more to my personality; it's a little more dynamic than that, and I like to show that on the show. It's cool."

The singing competition — which also features Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton as music coaches — was a hit in its first season. The four coaches chose teams of eight after an audition process that allowed them only to hear the contestant's voice, but not to see them. Once teams were whittled down to one contestant for each coach, Levine's mentee — the crooner Javier Colon — was crowned the winner.

"The Voice" helped showcase the playful and sillier side of the heavily-inked Levine. Band keyboardist Jesse Carmichael says Levine's presence on the show "was so positive for him definitely as a person, but for us as a band, too."

Now, the group is taking advantage of the buzz: They recently released "Moves Like Jagger," which features "Voice" co-star Aguilera, and it has reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It also hit No. 1 on the European and Canadian charts.

The dance song is a departure for the pop-rockers, and they say they're rushing to get a new album out this fall. In the past, the group released an album every three or four years.

"We're going to make it as quickly as we can (and) ride this wave of momentum," Levine said in an interview last week.

"That's too long," he explained about past breaks between records. "We can't do that anymore. We've got to keep moving."

The Grammy-winning group's 2002 debut, "Songs About Jane," sold 4.7 million units and they followed that with another multiplatinum-seller, 2006's "It Won't Be Soon Before Long." Last fall, they dropped their third album, the gold-selling "Hands All Over," which was re-released to feature "Jagger."

On Maroon 5's upcoming album, the group says they want to take a new direction. "Jagger" was produced Benny Blanco and Shellback, hitmakers for acts like Katy Perry, Ke$ha and Britney Spears.

"We can definitely stand to take more risks," Levine said. "It's awesome to have that little feeling in your stomach like, 'Oh, this isn't safe, this isn't normal for us' ... (and) if you don't do that, I think you're dead a as band."

The second season of "The Voice" premieres after the Super Bowl on Feb. 5.

{alltv} ABC airing new Jackie Kennedy interviews Sept. 13

Barnes&Noble.com 

NEW YORK (AP) — An ABC special with never-before-heard interviews with Jacqueline Kennedy will air Sept. 13.

Viewers will hear the former first lady speak with historian Arthur Schlesinger Jr. about life in the White House and with her husband, President John F. Kennedy. The recordings were made months after the president's 1963 assassination and sealed until now.

Originally planned for one hour, the special will now fill two hours in prime time and feature Diane Sawyer's interview with the couple's daughter, Caroline Kennedy.

The ABC special is timed to coincide with the publication of a book about the interviews. The release is also timed to the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy administration.

Jackie Kennedy later married Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. She died in 1994 at age 64.

{alltv} Charlie Sheen Winning After Warner Bros. Denied Gag Order Request

Barnes&Noble.com 

Wait, Charlie Sheen may actually, really, be #winning.

Not the crazy torpedo tour, goddess keeping or warlock talk winning, but real-life big-money lawsuit battle winning.

As if Sheen's war with Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre and Warner Bros. weren't public enough, now an arbitrator overseeing the case has denied the studio a request for a gag order in the court case, per the Hollywood Reporter.

So what exactly does this all mean?

It means we're probably going to be hearing lots of crazy talk from the Vatican warlock assassin as this case unfolds. Both Sheen and Warner Bros. (whoever wants to publicly go up against the nutter) are free to discuss the case with the media while it's being settled.

The press still isn't invited to attend arbitration hearings, and they can't view confidential details that are "sensitive and proprietary," like medical and financial records, but we're sure we'll be getting a mouthful of updates on the case from Sheen that will be pretty juicy.

Back in June, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled that the case would be disputed privately and would not be headed to a public trial. Sheen had wanted the trial to be public. Lawyers for Warner Bros. and Lorre argued no way to a court battle because Sheen had turned on them so publicly.

Currently, both sides are beginning depositions and getting their cases in order. Sheen claims he was fired because Lorre had a personal beef with him and his public rants against him and the way he ran the show. Warner Bros. says Sheen was unable to perform his acting duties on the show because he was, ya know, acting crazy.

All in all, this is a small win for Sheen, who with an upcoming Comedy Central Roast starring him on the table, is now free to rant all he wants about the case and Lorre.

{alltv} Kiss-Off: Watch Sarah Jessica Parker Shut Down a Puckered-Up Fan!

Barnes&Noble.com

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHxhT6j8Ykg&feature=player_embedded

Good help is so hard to find. Good help that doesn't try to get fresh with you, anyway.

Sarah Jessica Parker learned that lesson the hard way while making the promotional rounds in Moscow this week, when a cheeky fan (who was also reportedly acting as a bodyguard for the star) tried to leave with a souvenir that she wasn't quite ready to give.

Namely, a kiss.

The fan encounter went down outside the city's Bolshoi Theatre, and took place while SJP, fresh off of making a press appearance for I Don't Know How She Does It, stood to pose with bodyguard Oleg Donstov and a group of fans.

Perhaps sensing a once in a lifetime Kodak moment, Donstov—clearly a fan, as just moments before he stood still while Parker signed his chest—waited until everyone had posed and the photo was about to be taken before making his move, slickly puckering up in an oversize attempt to plant one on the A-lister.

Her response? A schoolgirl squeal if ever we heard one. For her part, Parker managed to laughingly wriggle out of the faux embrace, honor intact. (So stand down, Matthew Broderick!)

So he didn't get the kiss, but he got a pretty game kiss-off. We'd say that the best he could've hoped for in this situation.

As for Donstov, he was quoted in Scotland's Daily Record saying that his fanboy moment, amusingly caught on tape, may cost him his job. Of course, that post script comes from the same paper which claimed that Donstov ripped open his shirt and practically assaulted the star, leaving her screaming in terror, which is clearly not the case. So…grain of salt, and all that.
