Fox is inhuman because they cancelled Almost Human |

So Fox picked up the low-rated The Following and the even lower-rated Glee for another season, and yet they cancelled Almost Human. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show will not be back for a second season.
I am just dumbfounded by their decision because this show was paired perfectly with Sleepy Hollow and did better than that Kevin Bacon show; and yet it won’t be returning and they will be. I don’t get it. It was a great show with brilliant writing, in fact it was one of the better ones that they air.
If I were J.J. Abrams, I would not do another show over at Fox. Except for Fringe, they seem to like to do 13 episodes and done. Which is not only cruel to him, it’s crueler to us because his shows build a core audience that want to see them back. I didn’t hear anyone scream I want a third season of The Following. But I did hear a lot of people who wanted a second one for Almost Human and Alcatraz.
I seriously don’t know what Fox is doing any more and I think it is time for much needed change. Starting at the top aka Kevin Reilly. If they cancel Dads, I am done with them except for any show starring Gordon Ramsay, anything animated, Bones and Sleepy Hollow.
When it comes to Warner Bros, please shop this show around because I would love to see more of it.

(starts at 6:30 in)
Before Tony Hale was the Vice President’s personal aide on Veep, he was a doctor on Dawson’s Creek. He looks the same now as he did when he was 30 in that 2001 episode.

Gwen Stefani has The Voice! |

For a little over a week it has been rumored that Gwen Stefani is joining The Voice and today NBC made the news official. The No Doubt singer will be joining the singing competition in the fall along with Pharrell Williams and his hat. In case you are one of the few people who doesn’t know who they are, they will be performing on Monday’s show. Stefani will get the audience rockin’ to Hollaback Girl and Williams will get them happy with Come Get It Bae.
So in other words, The Voice gets Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Wiliams and his hat, and American Idol got Harry Connick Jr and Jennifer Lopez. Is there any doubt why Idol’s rating are dropping fast and The Voice’s are going up faster? I mean, the NBC show gets artists that are charting now and Idol gets ones that haven’t charted since their contestants were born. You gotta respect the crap out of Mark Burnett for not only knowing which musicians are hot, but also for having the ability to get them to do his show. Everyone of their coaches has not needed the show to get them liked again (see J-Lo) and yet they still do it! Pharrell Wiliams’ hats off to Reality Show Mogul!
Side note: That photo was taken in at the 2005 Billboard Music Awards when Gwen won Digital Song of the Year for Hollaback Girl. I was looking for photo of them together, thought that one was perfect, picked and then found she won for the song she will be singing on Monday. Total kismet.

Meet About A Boy’s dad, Chicago Fire is explosive, True Tori halts production |
| April 29th, 2014 under Aaron/Candy/Tori Spelling, Dick Wolf, NBC. [ Comments: 1 ]

Tonight at 9pm on NBC’s About a Boy we finally meet Marcus’ (Benjamin Stockham) dad and he’s played by Tony Hale. Hugh Womple (Hale), who has been in Antarctica studying penguins, and he just flew in to see his son for a few days. Just because he is there to see him, doesn’t mean he really wants to spend time with him. So now Will (David Walton) will do everything in his power to get those two closer and Fiona (Minnie Driver) and Hugh further apart.
Hale is the perfect actor to fill out that family because he is just quirky enough to be patriarch of it. His presence on the show explains even more why Marcus is the way that he is. Awwwdorable in his own special way!
Then at 10p on NBC, Chicago Fire is rocked by a massive explosion. Lt. Casey (Jesse Spencer) and Dawson (Monica Raymund) volunteered for a charity run at Chicago Medical and something so easy becomes the complete opposite in a second. Dawson goes in the hospital leaving Casey alone outside. While Casey is walking to two little girls, a bomb goes off throwing him into a car, and killing and injuring several people. Now everyone is on a full alert trying to save as many as they can. Which is made a lot more difficult because part of the hospital is missing due to the bomb.
Missing in the rubble is Dawson and her co-workers will do everything they can to find her. Will they find her alive? She isn’t the only person who is missing or injured from their station, someone is working through their injuries and they might become one of that fatalities if they don’t seek some help ASAP.
Along with dealing with the injured, Boden (Eamonn Walker) realizes that there might be another bomb in the hospital and they have to find it. So Cruz (Joe Minoso) and Otis (Yuri Sardarov) go in search of it and eventually they find the explosives. Will they be able to diffuse it before it goes off?
For most of this episode, it is focused on Fire and not PD. Because of that it is really intense as they do a search and rescue. I found myself glued to the television from the beginning to the end. It reminded me when ER was at its best because it is that well done.
So well done I think that NBC made a mistake by doing Chicago PD instead of Chicago Medical. I so want that spinoff instead after this episode.
Now having said that, tonight’s storyline concludes tomorrow on Chicago PD at 10p on NBC.
Also at 10p, but over on Lifetime is True Tori and it is a very emotional and revealing episode. So revealing that Dean McDermott says something that halts production on the show while the network decides if they can continue on with him and the show. What does he say that is so shocking? You just have to tune in to find out.
Let’s just Tori Spelling and him are leaving nothing out about their private lives on this show and it really is their true story. So have the tissues ready because there are a lot of real moments on this episode that will have you crying along with them.
