I've been wavering over whether the Cupid remake was a good idea or not, but this trailer for it has pushed me thoroughly over to the 'good idea' side. It looks adorable! :D
Damn, I didn't realise it before but Sydney Poitier is probably cursed! Like the article points out, she has had recurring roles on two consecutive cancelled shows (Joan of Arcadia & Veronica Mars) and has now been fired from Knight Rider. That really sucks, because I think she's a good actress. :/

io9 has a short interview with Rutina Wesley; her interview isn't as spoilery as Ryan's, but it's more meta about Tara & her role in True Blood.

An io9 blogger has written a great rant on Twilight's 'hidden morality plays'. I've seen various elements of her rant talked about in various places around LJ, but it's interesting to see it all put together.
