NBC’s “SMASH” Hits All the Right Notes!

Posted by   on February 5, 2012

in Television,TV Reviews

It is extremely refreshing to see a series where a courtroom, a hospital, or a crime scene are nowhere in sight.  Networks don’t often take chances on a series without one of those popular and successful staples as its foundation.  And let’s also get another thing straight – with the exception of the inclusion of songs and musical numbers, there is simply no comparison between Smash and Glee, the first being a serious drama and the latter a comedy that doesn’t take itself too seriously.  The good thing about Glee is that its success helped open the door to other shows interested in including music in its formats.

Smash takes us behind the scenes into the world of Broadway giving us views through the eyes of the struggling artist looking for that one break to fulfill their dreams; the creative team looking for inspiration in developing the next big thing along with its music and dance numbers; and the people who can write the checks to pay for it all.  The characters involved through each of these views are interesting and engaging, and the talented cast does an excellent job bringing them to life.  The musical numbers are richly produced and give a true sense of a Broadway stage while giving us an often-painful peek behind the curtain.  But the thing that will keep viewers interested will be the personal dramas associated with all the characters.  Based on the Pilot episode alone, Smash appears to be hitting all the right notes.

Jane Lynch Talks Her EMMYs Hosting Gig – And a Bit of Glee!

Jane-Lynch-Emmys-Host

Yesterday I had the opportunity to take part in a conference call Q&A with Jane Lynch. The subject was her upcoming gig as host of the 63th Primetime EMMY Awards [Fox, Sunday, September 18, 2011, 8/7C] – though some participants squeezed in a few Glee questions. To the surprise of no one, Lynch was comfortable, candid and yet not willing to give up any spoilers. Still, it was a rewarding experience.

Check it out following the jump.

The Winners of the 2011 Teen Choice Awards Are – Not All Twilight Related!

Posted by   on August 7, 2011

in Movie News,News,Television

TEEN CHOICE 2011: Emma Stone presents at the TEEN CHOICE 2011 at the Gibson Amphitheater, Universal City, CA. TEEN CHOICE 2011 airs Sunday, Aug.7 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

The 2011 Teen Choice Awards were unusual for any number of reasons – not the least of which was that the latest Twilight movie didn’t glom onto every award in sight. As a result, there was more than the usual amount of suspense as the winners were revealed. Indeed, wizards and tourists also hoisted surfboards on the movie side, while vampires of the non-sparkly variety won a few of the many awards on the television side.

Even some of the presenters – like Emma Stone [pictured] – received awards [in Stone’s case for Actress – Comedy, for Easy A]. Taylor Swift took home the Ultimate Choice Award. The Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco hosted, but the show was shut out.

For a complete list of winners, check out the Fox press release following the jump.
