~ Our Smallville Alum are working. Not only was Wednesday the 11th anniversary of the “Smallville”s premiere
The kiss that started it all
The allure of Superman pulls everyone in.
But it was the premiere of “Emily Owens M.D” starring Justin Hartley.
Do we call him McSpec? McCutie? McDarling?
Justin’s been hitting the interview circuit. He visited L.A’s CW affiliate KTLA with Mamie, he was on CBS’s “The Talk” and videos from blogger’s Vancouver set visit were posted. He was asked about the possibility of directing an episode of “Emily Owens, M.D”.
adored directing. I had probably the perfect scenario where I had a group of people around me that, for the most part, liked me a lot and took care of me and made sure that I got everything I needed and sorta tried to see my vision as well. I also had great showrunners...that.... I was benefitted by having a show that had been on for nine plus seasons so I sorta knew what the show was--you know what you were shooting. And Tom was there and he had directed before and he was helpful so I had that going for me. But if it's anything like that experience here, and I assume it would be, I would do it. I would do it every chance I got. I loved it.
~Kristin’s “Beauty and the Beast” fared better ratings wise than “Emily Owens M.D” (the debate and the fact that the show premiered online weeks ago added to the low numbers)
but the show is being critically ravaged like Vincent does to the bad guys.
Haters Gonna Hate
I think they took the Lana!Fu image from SV and shopped it in
Just as Tom talked about how helpful Kristin was to him in the audition for SV, Jay talks about support from Kristin.
Kristin, he said, was immediately kind, helping him settle into an audition groove, as the character who also has a passion for Catherine.
"I was just kind of shocked. I thought, 'Wow, this girl's been in the industry for 10 years and is sort of celebrated in a way, and she's just a very humble normal girl,'" he recounted. "So I was just like, now I want this part even more because I know I could work with this actress, however long it takes."
Now kiss
~Orson Welles directed another episode of “Supernatural”. This time it featured his dad Alan.
Jared and his father-in-law Jen’s dad at Jen’s play “A Few Good Men”
*Alan: Promise me that you and Jensen won't break up and marry women."
Jared: Uh.....
And is this for real from the CW publicity department or is a fan having a laugh?
What.Is.This?
~That other Arrow dude is enjoying his success.
Enjoy the CW publicity machine while you can. By S3 they'll forget that you exist.
*Stephen tweeted that guest star John Barrowman gives “exceptional hugs”. Little does he know John was feeling him up.
John and his boyfriend Scott Gill
*Stephen’s cousin Robbie guest starred on this week’s “Hawaii Five-O” with my girl Bai Ling.
~ “Arrow” and “Beauty and the Beast” is getting a lot of love, but let’s give it up to the entertaining folks of BlueBell. Poor “Hart of Dixie” is being ignored like Baby in the corner. Nobody puts my Blue Belle denizens in the corner!
But that’s okay “Hart of Dixie”-ers. I still love you. Even though I can’t stand Rachel Bilson.
They have a great supplemental cast of characters as well
~ “Hawaii Five-O” is doing something that should’ve happened in S1: they’re reunited Alex O’Loughlin with his “Three Rivers” costar, the hotness that is named Daniel Henney!
Young!Alex and Young!Daniel for no reason
Daniel will appear as Ian Anthony Dale’s brother.
Of course
*I’m loving Ian Anthony Dale on the show and I can’t wait to see these two together. While I’m not holding out hopes for Daniel to do an American series again (he did a minis-series for Korean TV not too long ago with actor/singer Rain), he is still making films. “Shanghai Calling” is playing film festivals and recently screened in my neck of the woods.
Here’s to you, you sexy MOFO.
Literally, a GQ mofo
*He tweets a lot which is adorable.
~The second installation of “American Horror Story” began last night and it was as twisted, depraved but sexier than the first season. This installment subtitled “Asylum” brings back the S1 actors (Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Zachary Quinto and Lily Rabe. Ryan Murphy just tweeted that Dylan McDermott is returning, as well as S1 guest star Eric Stonestreet.
The vets join newbies Mr. Kelly Ripa Mark Consuelos, Jamie Cromwell, Devon Graye
Former teen!Dexter
Joseph Fiennes, hot tattooed douchewad-no not John Mayer but Adam Levine, Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Ian McShane, Chloe Sevigny and Clea Duvall
Maybe this will have people stop confusing my girlcrush Clea with Chloe. Or maybe this will make them even more confused.
It sucks that I didn’t see my girl at the premiere of “Argo”.
Looking hawt
Elsewhere with Rain Phoenix.
But years ago at the Arclight I was waiting for a movie and she and her gal pal came over to a woman they knew who was sitting new me. They were there to see a music film. I want to say it was the one with Jack White and other musicians. Anyhoo…that was my brush with the greatness that is Clea.
Clea plays the secret girlfriend of Sarah Paulson’s character. Since people have nothing better to write about, rumors are kicking up that Sarah is carrying on an affair with Jessica Lange, who she has been friends with for years. I think it's because Sarah was with Cherry Jones for a long time so people figure she has a thing for older ladies.
Know who won’t be joining the inmates in the asylum? Former “The Secret Circle” actor Chris Zylka.
During the summer Chris excitedly tweeted his role on the show. Recently and very quietly, it was reported that he was out after refusing to shave his head for the role of a deaf-mute inmate. The reason was that he was only due to appear in two episodes and balked at shaving his head for that so Murphy fired him quicker than you can say His Royal Fierceness.
Chris didn’t tweet that he was fired but he tweeted being dumped by Lucy Hale of “Pretty Little Liars”.
Get him on a show and off Twitter
Then he came to his senses amd backtracked.
*There’s several S2 trailers but this is my fave for some reason.

~Chris isn’t the only one ankling a show. Though this one did it on his own. Colton Haynes’ recently announced departure from “Teen Wolf” caused a ruckus in the fandom. I don’t think people really care that Colton is leaving, I think they just don’t want change. Because really, what does he do on the show besides take his shirt off? You have the Tylers for that. I’m more concerned about Carlos Colton Posey.
Tyler loves their lovechild so much
This could’ve been you and Tyler’s child, Colton.
The exit was reported by E! Online first to the alleged bewilderment of MTV and Jeff Davis who both took to Twitter to express their confusion about the report. MTV News even tweeted someone asking where they were getting this info from. Finally, the next day MTV confirmed his exit. The scuttlebutt is that he didn’t want to return for only half a season and that his management had enough time to agree or disagree to an offer, but they sat on it for two months so they had to begin writing the first few episodes without Jackson. From what I gather Jackson focused a lot in the finale and his transition to werewolf was to be a bigger arc in S3 but now Colton’s departure changes that. The killing part is that Jeff Davis was deciding whether or not to kill the character off in S2.
The news came just before Davis and Tyler Posey did a “Teen Wolf” panel at NY Comic Con. Davis was diplomatic and Posey was darling saying that Colton is “a good guy and my best friend” and getting a little teary-eyed in the process.
Oh, l’il Javier from “Subterranean”. It’ll be alright.
I know you’ll miss this face.
And no this isn’t Rachel Maddow
~ “Teen Wolf” has a going away problem whereas Tyler’s fellow Alma award winner Lara Parrilla’s show “Once Upon a Time” has a coming in one.
Still so cute together
Didja know Lana’s dad was a baseball player for the Philadelphia Phillies?
Anyhoo… This already crowded show (IMO) is adding one more. Besides guest characters like Mulan, Lancelot,
Aurora/Sleeping Beauty
Fabulous Mad Hatter Jefferson
The Giant from Jack and the Beanstalk
*Played by “Lost”s Jorge Garcia.
Before he even appears in this weekend’s episode “Crocodile”, Colin O’Donoghue has been made a series regular. Colin will join the show as Captain Hook.
Colin’s pretty active on Twitter.
Posting pics and stuff
His character’s fans (yes, Hook has fans already) call themselves Hookers so now he’s taken to calling them that.

~Another ABC show that is back is “Revenge”. Another season of treachery and mystery.
`Another season of Gabriel Mann shipping Nolan and Emily.
My “Revenge” OTP is Jack and Nolan and I don’t understand why the world won’t fall in line and ship them!
Look at them!
Lil Nick’s been looking fit.
And Nick actually ventured out and went to an event!
Maybe Gabriel’s rubbing off on him.
The Women in Elle
The cast still on that Tyler Shields kick
*Declan may be pulling double duty. He and Taylor Momsen were seen on the set of “Gossip Girl” which seems to mean Lil J and Eric are returning for the finale.
Then
Now
~Kelly Rutherford has been commemorating these last weeks on set.
Like America, these guys are just counting the days until this show is off.
~Talking about tiny Connor , another elfin actor is Jimmy Marsden who is back in the final season of “30 Rock” as Tina Fey’s Liz Lemon’s boyfriend Criss Cross. I love how Liz does homoerotic things to him
Unlike Criss Jimmy didn’t have to work hard at getting someone pregnant. Months after he and his wife divorce, it was announced he was having a baby with a model he had a one-night stand with (carrying on fine tradition of barebacking it with strangers like Hugh Grant, Jude Law and Goren Visnijc before him). The child is due fairly soon.
~I Leave You With:
I heard you talking about handsome funny men so...here I am.
