Hilarious Clip of Don Cheadle and Guillermo on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Written by: John

Don Cheadle was on last night’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live. Cheadle and Guillermo spoofed his international suspense thriller with a short parody of behind-the-scenes footage for Traitor. In true Jimmy Kimmel fashion, this video gets better and better as the parody goes on.

Guillermo is my hero. I hope that he gets paid well.

John Noble as Dr. Walter Bishop
John Noble as Dr. Walter Bishop

Born in Port Pirie, South Australia, Australia

Artistic Director of Stage Company of South Australia 1977 – 87. Head of Drama, Brent St. School of Arts (Sydney) 1997-00. Directed over 80 plays, including ‘Sons of Cain’ on London’s West End (1986). Freelance actor. Semi-regular in TV series ‘All Saints’. Voice and acting teacher.

Fun facts
In the ending credits of the Extended Edition of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002), his name is misspelled “John Nogle.”
His daughter is the actress Samantha Noble

In my opinion “perfect” for the part of Dr. Walter Bishop. I really hope they keep playing him as the bright mad sicientest with no understanding of present day things.

Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop in J.J. Abram’s Fringe

Written by: Pete

Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop
Joshua Jackson as Peter Bishop

Born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 11 June 1978

Josh spent the first eight years of his life in California before returning to Canada. At the age of 11, Josh decided he wanted to pursue acting. Knowing how cruel an acting career could be, his mother, a casting director, took him to his first audition in hopes of discouraging him. Instead, he landed a commercial for Keebler’s potato chips.Since then, Josh has had a full career ranging from theater to television.

Fun Facts
Took time after High School to travel through Europe
Dated Katie Holmes (current Spouse of Tom Cruise)
Screen tested for the title role in Batman Begins, but lost out to Christian Bale.

In my opinion made famous by his role as Pacey Witter on the show “Dawson’s Creek″. A show about four friends in a small coastal town help each other cope with adolescence.
It had 6 award wins & 22 nominations in it’s 6 season run.

I Love Money-Episode 8 Backstabbers

Written by: Rocky

I want to thank Aurelius for creating a great video recap.

Video recap for Episode 8

So did Toastee make the right decision?

Check out what 12 Pak had to say before you decide:

You put asked people to vote you in the box this week, which ultimately led to your elimination. Do you regret offering yourself up so freely?

Yeah, hands-down. Me going in that box was probably the only chance they had of getting rid of me. I was close with Real and Hoopz, so if Whiteboy had gone, I would have taken his spot in their alliance. There’s no doubt in my mind that I would have been Final 2, unless I lost the last challenge. From Day 1, I was planning two episodes ahead, which is why I got sent home. I didn’t even think about going home that night, I was just thinking about winning the finals. I was playing to win.

Does that mean that you had a secret alliance with Real and Hoopz?

We talked about it a couple of times in front of the cameras, but it was probably too confusing to make it to the show. Had I stayed longer, it probably would have come out earlier. But there were a few times when Real and Chance and I talked about not voting each other out. Megan found out about that and that’s probably another reason why I left.

You can read the entire interview with 12 Pak here: Interview

It looks like Megan has proven once again that she’s the genius of the show. Not only did she win points with Whiteboy(her crush) but she may have saved herself and her Secret Alliance for a while longer. With Whiteboy gone, 12 Pak and Heather would have joined with Real, making the Secret Alliance the main target for elimination.

So who will be the next to go?

Fox to Stream Premiere of “Fringe”

Written by: Pete


Fox to stream premieres for dorms
‘Fringe,’ ‘Terminator’ bow to college audiences
By MICHAEL SCHNEIDER

In a first, Fox will stream the premiere of “Fringe” and season opener
of “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” online at the same time
as they bow on TV.

But there’s a catch: Only computer users on college campuses will be
able to log in to watch the simul-stream.

Move helps Fox expose the trend-setting college audience — who are
more likely to have computers than TVs in their dorm rooms — to the
shows.

Computers logging into Fox.com from a college-based .edu domain will
be given full streaming access to “Terminator” on Sept. 8, the same
night it returns on Fox, and the series premiere of “Fringe” Sept. 9,
when it launches on the net.

Fox content strategy senior VP Bill Bradford came up with the idea
after noticing that .edu addresses were among Fox.com’s top visitors.

“We talked about what we could do with colleges given the fact that we
have so much traffic coming from them,” said Fox Entertainment
chairman Peter Liguori. “The light bulb went off — by simul-streaming
‘Fringe’ and ‘Sarah Connor,’ (the college students) get to see the
show, and we get the increased fanbase and buzz.”

The sites also will offer up behind-the-scenes footage, cast
interviews and musicvideos for college viewers.

The promotion also comes as Nielsen begins to measure college-student
viewing in a limited fashion. Last year Nielsen started including
college students living away from home in its national People Meter
ratings. The ratings firm doesn’t consider dorm rooms as separate
households but includes students who happen to be a part of a Nielsen
family.

Ironically, college students are among the most notorious for using
their .edu addresses to illegally download copyrighted content –
which perhaps include the bootleg copies of “Fringe” currently making
the Internet rounds. Now that “Fringe” will be streamed, Liguori said,
“There’s no need to do anything dumb.”

Liguori said it’s too soon to determine whether the network will
regularly stream premieres or regular episodes simultaneously with
their on-air runs. “We’ll see how this experiment goes,” he said.

Anna Torv as Olivia Dunham in J.J. Abram’s Fringe

Written by: Pete

Anna Torv

Anna Torv


Born in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

She graduated from Australia’s National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA) with a degree in Performing Arts (Acting) in 2001.

Has done Motion Capture for PlayStation 3 game Heavenly Sword at WETA Digital in Wellington, New Zealand. Plays ‘Nariko’ in the game. (March 2007)

J.J. Abram’s knew he wanted her for the part from the moment he saw an audition tape from her agent. (The tape was her trying out from something else and not a Olivia on Fringe.)

TV’s dying for another kick-ass female action star, and Torv might just fill the void as Olivia Dunham, an FBI agent investigating a string of strange phenomena. Plus she’s got J.J. Abrams on her side. In the name of Jennifer Garner and Evangeline Lilly, how can she not break out?
