Friends - Season 1 

Friends TV SeriesThis is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. As its ratings following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, illustrated, Friends has matured into television's most beloved comfort show. The peerless ensemble--Jennifer Aniston, a pre-Arquette Courtney Cox, Emmy winner Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer--makes a lasting first impression in the first season's 24 episodes, which are presented chronologically on four discs. The perky "Pilot" introduces unlucky-in-love Monica, runaway bride Rachel, sad sack Ross, New Age ditz Phoebe, wise guy Chandler, and womanizer Joey. The focus of the first season is Ross's unrequited love for Rachel, but we have these moments to remember: the arrival of Marcel the monkey ("The One with the Monkey"); Monica, Rachel, and Phoebe's "cleansing ritual" ("The One with the Candy Hearts"); the escalating game of shower peek-a-boo ("The One with the Boobies"); Joey as Al Pacino's butt double ("The One with the Butt"); Ross taking lessons from Joey in how to "talk dirty" ("The One with the Stoned Guy"); former "Must-See TV" stars Helen Hunt and George Clooney ("The One with Two Parts"); and Chandler spilling the beans to Rachel about Ross's feelings for her ("The One Where Rachel Finds Out"). Though its devoted fans can recite these episodes chapter and verse, Friends maintains its sparkle through repeat viewings, a testament to the sharp writing as well as the cast's lightning-in-a-bottle chemistry and lived-in performances. The episodes are presented uncut and extended, with previously unseen dialogue and scenes. And those who hate Friends and would like to drown the characters in the opening credits' fountain are directed to the episode "The One with the Boobies," in which guest star Fisher Stevens hilariously nails the "dysfunctional group dynamic ... co-dependent, emotionally stunted, sitting in your stupid coffeehouse and you're all like, 'Define me, define me.'"

Grey's Anatomy - Season One

Grey's Anatomy
Just when you wanted to say "Oh no, not another hospital drama," Grey's Anatomy turns into one of the most addicting series on television. With no big stars and no hype, the ABC series debuted last spring as a mid-season replacement and became a bonafide smash in its nine-episode season.

The series, a hybrid of House's medical detectives and Dawson's Creek's hormones and catchy pop-rock soundtrack, follows five competitive surgical interns at the fictional Seattle Grace Hospital. There's optimistic ex-model Izzie (Katherine Heigl), bumbling do-gooder George (T.R. Knight), competitive glacier Cristina (Sandra Oh), cocky womanizer Alex (Justin Chambers), and the show's namesake, Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), whose medical career is complicated by her famous surgeon mother who now lives with Alzheimer's, and her frowned-upon relationship with another surgeon, Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey, enjoying the best career revival since Rob Lowe). The doctors juggle romance and foster friendships while trying not to stab each other in the back over surgeries.

Grey's Anatomy's first season, while entertaining, went a little far trying to find its groove, overdosing on Meredith's overly simplistic voice-overs ("At the end of the day… faith is a funny thing"), and musical montages. It has the usual trappings of a hospital drama (unusual cases, such as the patient with the 70-pound tumor, and trysts in the on-call room), but with more warm fuzzies and light touches. (Sometimes, a little too light--the opening credits sequence features an eyelash curler next to medical instruments and red-painted toes savorting with a male patient under a sheet)

Pompeo, who can sound just like Renee Zellweger if you close your eyes, is likeable but not strong enough of a presence compared to her co-stars. Luckily the quirky dialogue and stellar acting by the ethnically diverse cast, particularly by Chandra Wilson (Dr. Bailey, aka "the Nazi") and Oh, who won a Golden Globe for best supporting actress, more than make up for it.

Sex and the City

Sex and the CitySex and the City is based on Candace Bushnell's provocative bestselling book. Sarah Jessica Parker stars as Carrie Bradshaw, a self-described "sexual anthropologist," who writes "Sex and the City," a newspaper column that chronicles the state of sexual affairs of Manhattanites in this "age of un-innocence." Her "posse," including nice girl Charlotte (Kristin Davis), hard-edged Miranda (Cynthia Nixon), and party girl Samantha (Kim Cattrall)--not to mention her own tumultuous love life--gives Carrie plenty of column fodder. Over the course of the first season's 12 episodes, the most prominent dramatic arc concerns Carrie, who goes from turning the tables on "toxic bachelors" by having "sex like a man" to wanting to join the ranks of "the monogamists" with the elusive Mr. Big (Chris Noth). Meanwhile, Miranda, Cynthia, and Samantha have their own dating woes.

The second season builds on the foundation of the first season with plot arcs that are both hilarious and heartfelt, taking the show from breakout hit to true pop-culture phenomenon. Relationship epiphanies coexist happily alongside farcical plots and zingy one-liners, resulting in emotionally satisfying episodes that feature the sharp kind of character-defining dialogue that seems to have disappeared from the rest of TV long ago. When last we left the NYC gals, Carrie had just broken up with a commitment-phobic Mr. Big (Chris Noth), but fans of Noth's seductive-yet-distant rake didn't have to wait long until he was back in the picture, as he and Carrie tried to make another go of it. Their relationship evolution, from reunion to second breakup, provides the core of the second season. Among other adventures, Charlotte puzzles over whether one of her beaus was "gay-straight" or "straight-gay"; Miranda tries to date a guy who insists on having sex only in places where they might get caught; and Samantha copes with dates who range from, um, not big enough to far too big--with numerous stops in between.

The third season was the charm, as the series earned its first Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series to go along with its Golden Globes for Best Comedy Series and Best Actress (Parker). One of this season's two principal story arcs concerned hapless-in-love Charlotte and her pursuit of a husband; enter (if only...) Kyle McLachlan as the unfortunately impotent Trey. Meanwhile, Carrie has a brief but memorable fling with a politician who's golden, but not in the way she anticipated. She then sabotages her too-good-to-be-true relationship with furniture designer Aidan (John Corbett) by having an affair with Mr. Big (Chris Noth), who himself has gotten married. Like I Love Lucy, the series benefited from a brief change of scenery with a three-episode jaunt to Los Angeles, where Carrie and company encountered, among others, Matthew McConaughey, Vince Vaughn, Hugh Hefner, and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

The fourth season is just as smart and sexy as ever, mixing caustic adult wit and sharply observed situation comedy on the mean streets of Manhattan, though this time the quartet of singleton city girls must endure even tougher combat in the unending war of love, sex, and shopping. Carrie finally seems to have found her ideal life partner when she is reunited with handsome craftsman Aidan. But can their relationship survive trial by cohabitation? Meanwhile Charlotte seems to have both her dream Park Avenue apartment and a solution to her marital problems with Trey. But when the subject of babies comes up, everything starts to unravel for her, too. It's not just Charlotte who has baby issues either: after what seems like an eternity of enforced sexual abstinence Miranda is horrified to discover she's pregnant. And as for the sultry Samantha, she's on a quest for monogamy, first with an exotic lesbian artist, then with a philandering businessman, with whom to her utter dismay she just might have fallen in love.

It was a short but sweet fifth season, as HBO's resident comediennes found themselves affected by forces beyond their control--the pregnancies of both Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon. A truncated shooting schedule to accommodate the actresses forced this season to be reduced to a mere eight episodes, but they and creators forged ahead, creating a handful of episodes that if short in content were long on emotion and laughs. Carrie and Miranda wrestled with their solitary lifestyles, albeit with new attachments--Miranda had new baby Brady and single motherhood, while Carrie found herself in the world of publishing as the author of a real-life book of her columns. Charlotte wondered if she'd ever find another man, while Samantha finally got rid of the one that had been vexing her far too much. If the season as a whole felt less than the sum of its parts, those parts were some of the best comedy in the show's history. The season's climactic episode, "I Love a Charade," was one of the series' best episodes ever, equally touching and funny, and grounded the show in an emotional maturity that announced that after all their wild travails, these women had truly grown up.

After a long wait--like the entire fifth season--Carrie is dating again. The sixth season starts with Carrie and her sparkly new potential, Berger (Ron Livingston), trying to leave past relationships and hit it off, with mixed results. Meanwhile Carrie's friends seem to be settling down, relatively speaking. Miranda decides that her affair with TiVo cannot compete when Mr. Perfect (Blair Underwood, at his most charming) moves into her building. Charlotte's feelings for her "opposites attract" boyfriend (Evan Handler) deepen, but they still have a few things to iron out. Most surprising is Samantha's hot relationship with waiter-actor-stud Smith Jerrod (Jason Lewis) taking on something resembling love, despite Samantha's best intentions. Before the sixth season started in the summer of 2003, a bombshell hit: it was announced that this would be the finale. But it would be a long season, and these 12 episodes plant the seeds for the final 8 airing the following winter. These dozen episodes illustrate the maturity of the show: there's not a bad one in the bunch, and the show is still flat-out funny. The comedy blends serious points of how we perceive singles, couples, and parents (and the gifts we lavish on the latter two). Carrie's method of celebrating her singlehood is just another gem in this treasure of a series.

With the last eight episodes of the sixth season, HBO's grand sitcom concluded, leaving untold numbers of women--and many men--feeling deprived. The six-year series certainly did not outlast its welcome; the final season is some of the best TV had to offer in 2004. In many ways, the eight episodes served as a single finale, with all four characters approaching a kind of destiny and happiness, the theme of this last half-season (which aired weeks after the first half). Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) continues her romance with Russian artist (Mikhail Baryshnikov), a flippantly arrogant man who's been around the block, but able to supply Carrie's needed desire for magic. Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) has settled down with Steve (David Eigenberg), but there is more that will change with her, including her address. Charlotte (Kristin Davis) continues to make baby plans now that the husband slot is filled quite nicely (Evan Handler). Going down the final stretch--and Samantha's (Kim Cattrall) cancer--gives the series a more serious tone, but there's always a jab to tickle the funny bone: Miranda's awkwardness with happiness, Charlotte's latest passion, Carrie typing someplace new, and Samantha getting into Paris Hilton territory. Like any series winding down, there is a wedding, a baby, old faces popping up, and some star-ladened new ones. In the final two-part episode, "An American in Paris," Carrie faces her romantic destiny, but also solidifies herself as a fashion icon, an Audrey Hepburn for 21st-century television. In the penultimate episode, she asks her friends an emotional question: "What if I never met you?" Certainly fans can ask of themselves the same question and reminisce how much better TV became since they first tuned in these four women of the City.

Grey's Anatomy - Season Two

Grey's AnatomyThe medical drama's second season could be diagnosed as bipolar; in other words, it got much worse and much better at the same time. Whiny, self-involved surgical intern Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), arguably the weakest spot in the otherwise likeable ensemble, had already left viewers annoyed. But season two, in which Meredith coped with being dumped by her married McDreamy (a.k.a. neurosurgeon Derek, a.k.a. Patrick Dempsey) by excessive drinking, sleeping around, gazing like a sad puppy and--unforgivable!--breaking the heart of longtime admirer/friend George (the cuddly T.R. Knight), could have alienated audiences for good. (Seriously, sometimes you want to shake the girl and feed her some cookies.) Thankfully, what Meredith's storyline threatened to derail was held together by some emotional episodes, including "Into You Like a Train," in which a pair of strangers are impaled together on a metal pole, and "Much Too Much," featuring a mother's quintuplets in critical condition. But the standout show that turned Grey's Anatomy into a television force came with the January 2006 post-Super Bowl episode, a two-parter involving a "code black" lockdown when a live bomb is housed inside a patient.

Romance also remained key to the staff at Seattle Grace: Steely Cristina (Golden Globe winner Sandra Oh) softens, to her great dismay, as her relationship with Dr. Burke (Isaiah Washington) gets serious; Izzie (Katherine Heigl) pairs up, then breaks up, with Alex (Justin Chambers, the villain of the cast if you had to name one) before falling in love with flirty, tender heart patient Denny (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). Derek and estranged wife Addison (Kate Walsh, who somehow managed to win over Meredith-McDreamy fans despite being the Other Woman) make attempts at fixing their marriage, and Dr. Bailey (Chandra Wilson, easily a standout) tries to balance a medical career with mommyhood. Even George finds a new love with orthopedic surgeon Callie (Sara Ramirez). The season wraps up with a weeper of a two-part finale, set at the hospital during a "prom" (it's complicated). But with the fancy gowns and tuxes, tears and romantic tension, leading to a crossroads for Meredith and Derek, you can bet the episodes are a delight for any Grey's fan. The show also continues to rely heavily on narration (not a good thing) and soundtracks (a good thing), using tracks from artists before they hit it big (KT Tunstall, Brandi Carlisle, Snow Patrol).

Carrie Underwood talks about dating and her search for Mr. Right

American IdolCarrie Underwood has been romantically linked to British singer Oliver Trevena and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, so one presumably wouldn't call American Idol's fourth season winner unlucky in love. But that seems to be the case.

"Guys who would never look at me twice before might ask me out now, so I guess I have better opportunities," said Underwood in the May issue of Cosmopolitan according to a Friday report by People. "But when I do meet a guy, there's this 'Does he just want his picture in a magazine?' factor."

The 24-year-old Checotah, OK native added she's shy and "horrible around guys," but still optimistic about finding Mr. Right.
"I'm not saying I want to get married tomorrow, but I'd like to have someone other than my mom to call when I have good news," Underwood told Cosmopolitan.

Underwood also claimed she has to market herself correctly or she can forget about selling albums, never mind trying to land a date in the little downtime she has.

"The music business is about packaging. People have to be pleased by what they see on TV or they'll change the channel," Underwood told Cosmopolitan.

Critics are apparently easy to please for Underwood, who has won numerous awards since winning American Idol's fourth season in the May 2005. She was most recently awarded two Grammys for best new artist as well as best female country vocal performance for "Jesus Take the Wheel." But it doesn't end with critics and potential suitors, as Underwood added some females fans are often critical of her post-Idol weight loss.

"I gained weight on Idol, but I didn't starve myself afterward," she explained in Cosmopolitan. "I may think about it a little too much. I might feel guilty if I eat a pizza. But I've tried to be healthy and exercise as much as I can. If that's made me lose weight, I guess I needed to."

For the Love of Shyamali

For someone who's on TV for mere seconds each week, Shyamali Malakar has made a large impression with searchers. Usually spotted in the audience of "American Idol" rooting heartily for her brother Sanjaya Malakar, Ms. Shyamali Malakar's lovely looks have enchanted viewers.

Although she tried out for the singing competition and didn't make the cut, she's become a success in buzz without having to even make a sound. Searches on "shyamali malakar" spike each Tuesday after the Idol broadcast and are up 211% this week alone. Queries for "shyamali malakar pics" and "shyamali malakar hooters pics" are also making an impression in buzz.

For those who haven't taken the time to properly introduce themselves to Shyamali Malakar, searches on "sanjaya sister" (+304%), "sanjaya's sister pics" (+252%), and "sanjaya malakar sister" (+84%) are sufficing. While she's not pulling down the same number of searches as her oft-derided bro, rarely has someone done so little to earn this much interest. The curvaceous cutie notches about 1/10th of the searches of Sanjaya Malakar, but he might want to consider making her an integral part of his post-Idol plan for success.

"The Simpsons Movie" to Re-brand 7-Eleven Stores to Look Like Kwik-E-Marts

The SimpsonsIt appears as though the world's largest convenience store will get Simpsonized, though 7-Eleven Inc. said the deal isn't done yet.

But at a company event yesterday in Richmond, officials showcased their planned promotional efforts with major upcoming films, including "The Simpsons Movie."

If all goes as planned, the convenience store chain plans to refit 11 stores across the U.S. -- Richmond is an unlikely choice -- to resemble the front of the Kwik-E-Mart, the convenience store that Homer and other characters frequent in the classic cartoon TV series.
Customers also will be able to buy products inspired by the nearly two-decades-old show, including KrustyO's cereal, Buzz Cola and iced Squishees (the cup says Squishee, but the contents will be Slurpee).

The chain also will use pictures of Simpsons characters to promote 7-Eleven's line of fresh foods, such as placing the face of Homer and his classic "Mmmm . . . sandwich" quip on sandwich wrappers.

Details of 7-Eleven's plans were showed to employees in a booth at a company event at the Greater Richmond Convention Center. It was unclear yesterday which 11 stores of the more than 4,700 nationwide would receive a cartoony facelift or sell inventory of the Simpsons-inspired products.

The movie hits theaters July 27.

7-Eleven also is lining up deals with the "Spider-Man" franchise in advance of the third installment in May. The promotion will feature Black Cherry Lemonade Slurpees and collectible Slurpee cups with three-dimensional graphics on the side.

Finally, the retailer plans to use the June sequel to "Fantastic Four" to promote the Slurpee energy drink it launched last year, called Full Throttle.

Spokeswoman Margaret Chabris said contracts on the promotions have not been signed with movie studios. She didn't give any further details, saying the company will release more information in coming weeks.

"We've done research, and research shows us that our customers like . . . movies, so we're getting involved with some major studios on some of their properties this summer," she said.

TV Shows News
By Christopher Rocchio, 04/04/2007


Gina Glocksen became the fourth finalist eliminated from American Idol's sixth season during Wednesday night's live broadcast of the Fox reality show's results show.

The 22-year-old Naperville, IL native was sent packing after "just under 33 million votes" were cast based on Tuesday night's live performances.

"My American Idol experience means so much to me because I've gone through so much rejection and it's just been a long time coming," Glocksen said during a video montage of her Idol journey. Idol's sixth season represented the third time Glocksen, who broke down in tears after her elimination was announced, had auditioned for the competition.

Glocksen performed "Smile" during Tuesday night's Idol broadcast. Idol judge Randy Jackson thought it was a "very nice controlled performance from the rocker girl;" Paula Abdul commented it was "flawless, understated, beautiful and sentimental;" while Simon Cowell apologized to Glocksen that he couldn't "rave about the vocals."

Prior to Glocksen's elimination, Idol host Ryan Seacrest had revealed that -- for the second week in a row -- Haley Scarnato, a 24-year-old from San Antonio who performed "Ain't Misbehaving," and Phil Stacey, a 29-year-old from Jacksonville, FL who sang "Night and Day," were the other two members of the week's bottom three vote-getters.

Once the bottom vote-getters group was narrowed to only Scarnato and Glocksen, Seacrest asked the judges what they thought. Jackson said he was "not really surprised... a little surprised by Gina... a little surprised by both actually;" Abdul said "it gets tough at this stage" and added both should "be proud;" while Cowell commented he was "not surprised." Seacrest then revealed that Glocksen was eliminated and Scarnato was safe to sing another day.

"Thank you so much for letting me do this... and getting me this far," Glocksen said upon learning she was eliminated. "I'll see you on tour."

Earlier in the broadcast, Seacrest also revealed that the threesome of Melinda Doolittle, Lakisha Jones and Jordin Sparks ranked as the week's "top" vote-getters, while Sanjaya Malakar, Blake Lewis and Chris Richardson were in the "middle."

Tony Bennett, who served as a mentor during the Tuesday night performance show that celebrated American classics, came down with the flu according to Seacrest and was unable to perform on Wednesday night. He was replaced by Michael Bouble.

"Am I wasting my votes by still voting for Antonella Barba?" Bouble asked Seacrest following his performance. "No. I do the same thing," answered a seemingly startled Seacrest.

The Top 8 finalists on Idol's sixth season -- Melinda Doolittle, Gina Glocksen, Sanjaya Malakar, Haley Scarnato, Phil Stacey, Lakisha Jones, Blake Lewis, Chris Richardson and Jordin Sparks -- will all perform live on Tuesday, April 10 beginning at 8PM ET on Fox and will be mentored by Jennifer Lopez. Then on Wednesday, April 12 at 9PM ET, Idol will air its first one-hour live results show in the finals, narrowing the field of hopefuls to seven.

LA prosecutors say Paris Hilton violated probation.

Prosecutorsasked a judge Thursday to revoke Paris Hilton's probation for recklessdriving, which could lead to jail time for the celebrity socialite, theCity Attorney's Office said.

A hearing has been set for April 17for prosecutors to argue that Hilton, 26, violated the terms of herprobation by knowingly driving with a suspended license, said NickVelasquez, a spokesman for the city attorney, Rocky Delgadillo.

Thehotel heiress and star of the reality TV show The Simple Life wassentenced to three years probation in January after pleading nocontest--the equivalent of a guilty plea--to alcohol-related recklessdriving.

Five weeks later, police pulled Hilton over again inthe city of West Hollywood for driving without headlights and impoundedher car, a $190,000 Bentley, when they discovered her license had beensuspended, authorities said.

The case was then referred to the City Attorney's Office.

Atthe time, Hilton's spokesman, Elliot Mintz, said his client was notaware that her driving privileges had been curtailed. But prosecutorshave since concluded otherwise.

"We are confident that we havesufficient evidence to prove that her license was suspended and thatshe had knowledge of that suspension," Velasquez said.

If found to have breached the terms of her probation, Hilton could be sentenced to up to 90 days in jail, he added.

Heaven's10th-season finale aired on WB in May amid much fanfare about it beingthe series closer, delivering its highest marks in more than two yearswith an episode that appeared to wrap up many loose ends in the showabout a minister (Stephen Collins) and his sprawling family.

Butthe CW, which launched in September after the merger of WB and UPN,gave Heaven a last-minute renewal in May, announcing that the showwould return in fall 2006 in its signature Monday 8 p.m. slot as partof the CW's inaugural lineup. In October, the network switched itsSunday and Monday lineups, moving Heaven to 8 p.m. Sunday.

Season-to-date, the series is averaging 3.4 million total viewers and a 1.3 rating in the network's target demo of adults 18-34.

The Cosby Show was for the late '80s what Dallas was for the early eighties. Dallas was the number one show during most of the early eighties; but then situation comedies bumped all prime-time soaps down. The Cosby Show proved to be fierce in the competition, becoming the number one show from 1985-1990. In fact, in 8 years it never dropped below the top 20.

Dr. Heathcliff "Cliff" Huxtable was an OBGYNE (obstetrician/gynecologist), and his wife Clair was a successful attorney. They had five children: Sondra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa and Rudy. Sondra was rarely seen during the first season because she was away at Princeton. She became a regular character in the second season, and was usually seen with her on-again off-again beau, Elvin. They eventually married and had twins; but not before stunning their families by announcing the fact that Elvin was dropping out of medical school to open a camping store, and Sondra was dropping out of law school to help her husband in his endeavor.

Denise was the "unique" child, the black sheep of the family. She had her own way of doing things, right down to the style of clothing she wore. After graduating high school, she left for Hillman College in 1986 (a year later, this would become the setting for the spin-off A Different World), but returned two years later with news that she was dropping out. She eventually decided to become a photographer's assistant, and left for Africa for a year. When she returned, she had yet another bombshell: she had become a wife and mother while over in Africa. She married a navy man, Martin; who had a child, Olivia, from a previous marriage. During the final season, Denise travelled with Martin as he was stationed in Asia. Olivia stayed behind with Cliff and Clair.

Theo, Vanessa and Rudy were probably the most popular of the five kids, due to the fact that they were seen more often than Sondra and Denise. Most of the stories revolved around the three youngest children.

Stories dealt mainly with dating and school life, as well as Cliff's never-ending fear that his children would never leave home. In the final episode, Theo graduated from college.
