James Maclurcan Eye Candy

Australian model/actor Twenty-one year old James Macluran is the newest Red Ranger in the newest incarnation "Power Rangers Operation Overdrive" based on Boukenger (mentioned before on this blog).

There are a couple of hotties in Power Rangers, most notably remembered Austin St. John and James David Frank but lately they are filming in New Zealand, they have these creamy white hunks. He can actually act or just plain endearing. He is more tolerable than some other Red Rangers Disney has chosen lately.

Ooh, the money shot baby. The actors don't usually wear the suits, moslty just for one scene or two throughout the year without their helmets.

Bryan Greenberg in new ABC show

Bryan Greenberg who I mentioned in my review of the movie Prime with Uma Thurman, will be in a new ABC TV drama called 'October Road' that seems promising about a man who comes back home and discovers his ex-girlfriend has a child.

Like many young actors these days, he fancies himself as a singer as well. Bryan has also been on 'One Tree Hill' as a singer father, in a movie called the Perfect Score with Scarlett J. and will be in a new movie Nobel Son. He was also an a improv George Clooney produced HBO series called 'Unscripted' where he palyed a character with his real name.

Lost/Family Guy Subconscious Joke?

Could there be a subconscious inside joke with calling a newscaster in a flashback Tricia Tanaka in Hurley's episode on 'Lost'. She is Asian and sounds suspiciously like Tricia Takanawa, newscaster from 'Family Guy.'

Addison spin-offs well deserved but stirs jealously

Kate Walsh, who portrays Dr. Addison Montgomery is getting spinned off on a own series. Congrats to her. When news broke, "The rest of the cast seemed instantly resentful of [Walsh]," says a source, because they all thought they were going to get their own show. Dr. Grey herself, Ellen Pompeo, was especially unhappy, as she thought she should've been consulted. - AOL article here. I think they should have spinned her off earlier. I've grown to like her and believe she is integral to the series now. Other characters that are worthy to be spin-off are Callie and Joe the gay bartender. Most likely, Addison will be moving away because sources says the series won't be based in Seattle like the original.

Good news is that series creator and executive producer Shonda Rhimes brought it up and will be completely behind me. It surprises me because it sounds sort of flimsy and would have liked that the spin-off series would not be like medical. But some critics believe it would be like a 'Law & Order' or 'C.S.I.' franchise. Anyhoo, I think Kate is worthy of heading her own series.
Hopefully Dr. Steamy or Callie will make guest spots. While the drama behind the series has caused more gossip than the actual series, I hope that brickering dies out soon. One of my favorite critics, Matt Roush talks about his reactions on TVGuide.com.

Orlando Jones

Kudos to Orlando Jones who did deverse roles in February. He played a strict 'drill sergeant'-like teacher in 'Everybody Hates Chris' and a gay estranged son in 'Men in Trees.'

Nathan Fillion in "Drive"

This might be old news but I just found out that super-talented Nathan Fillion ('Firefly') will be in the upcoming FOX show "Drive" along with Whedonversie Amy Acker ('Angel'). Unfortuantely because it is FOX and shows don't last that long, I don't think it will last. Check out the official website, still up as of August 2007.
