| No Comments | No TrackBacks
True_Blood_2DDVD.jpgOne of our fave TV shows is hitting DVD in the UK this week, the superb US TV show True Blood.

From the creator of Six Feet Under and the Academy Award® winning writer of American Beauty (Alan Ball) and featuring the sexy, eclectic cast of Academy Award® winning Anna Paquin(The Piano, X-Men), British actor Stephen Moyer (NY-LON), Alexander Skarsgard  (Generation Kill) and Ryan Kwanten (Home and Away) TRUE BLOOD is the show that everyone is talking about.

Anna Paquin admits audiences find it "weird" when she gets nude on screen.

The former child actress - who won an Oscar aged 11 for her part in 'The Piano' - doesn't mind baring all for scenes in her steamy US drama series 'True Blood' but understands it is difficult for people to stop thinking of her as a "sweet" young star.

She said: "It's been a gradual evolution for me. It's probably weird for people to watch it and if they have this image of me as a sweet little child, but it's not weird for me.

David Hasselhoff is set to star in a new reality TV show.

The former 'Baywatch' star - who already appeared in the documentary show 'Meet the Hasselhoffs' earlier this year - has reportedly signed up for a new programme on US TV network A+E with his teenage daughters Hayley and Taylor.

A representative for the network told gossip website TMZ: "We are discussing a possibility of doing a documentary series with David and his kids."

Michael Jackson fans can compete for the chance to dance in front of his family.

New TV show 'Move Like Michael Jackson' will start filming in the UK later this month and contestants will battle it out for the chance to star in an official tribute concert for the late pop star in front of the Jackson family.

A spokesman for the BBC3 series said: "The winner won't necessarily be the dancer who mimics Michael Jackson's choreography, but rather someone who can move like him, creating and inventing iconic steps and styles."

So, the OTHER big show this past Saturday night was STRICTLY COME DANCING and the BIG news on that show was that Amy Winehouse was making her return to performance, displaying that amazingly huge voice, and those two even more amazing £32,000 breast enlargements. Winehouse was providing back-up vocals for her 13-year-old goddaughter Dionne Bromfield -- who was strictly, simply amazing!!! Watch the performance below.

The new Doctor Who logo revealed!

doctor-who-logo.jpgThe new logo for the fifth series of DOCTOR WHO, which sees Matt Smith replace David Tennant as the Doctor, has been revealed.

Series producer Stephen Moffat said: "A new logo. The eleventh logo for the eleventh Doctor - those grand old words, Doctor Who, suddenly looking newer than ever. And look at that, something really new - an insignia! DW in TARDIS form! Simple and beautiful, and most important of all, a completely irresistible doodle. I apologise to school notebooks everywhere, because in 2010 that's what they're going to be wearing."

Megan Fox kicks off the news season of SNL

| No Comments | No TrackBacks
Saturday Night Live kicked off a new series in the US on Saturday night and one Megan Fox was the guest host on the show. The JENNIFER'S BODY and TRANSFORMERS star hammed it up on the comedy show this weekend alongside new cast members Jenny Slate and Nasim Pedrad

EW.com has the skinny:

Whether by her choice or the show's, Fox was used primarily as -- well, as a body. She matched Wiig's Southern accent in the early flight-attendant sketch, and did some nice acting opposite Will Forte in a well-written Digital Short that was primarily a showcase for Forte's beautifully calibrated sensitive-nerd SWAT team leader. But in playing a beautiful Russian bride, a cynical chat-line spokesmodel, and a curvy stooge for Kenan Thompson's terrific Grady-Wilson-teaches-you-sexual-positions commercial, Fox was fine, but she didn't really stretch her comedy muscles.


The 61st Primetime Emmy Award Winners in full

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

We have the full list of the big winners on Emmy night. In a nutshell 30 ROCK and MAD MEN came out on top in pretty much everything that they were nominated in. Neil Patrick Harris dished out the gongs in Los Angeles last night. Come back to The Hollywood News a little later on for more from the show.

The full list is after the jump.

It seems that all that I have posted over the last few days is entry after entry covering the new season of DOLLHOUSE, starring Eliza Dushku, which is just about to kick off in the US.

This site's main man got a look at episode one of the new series, and got to speak to the show's creator Joss Whedon.

I've seen the first episode of the new season, and I'll write more about it soon. But, very briefly, it plays to Eliza Dushku's strengths as an actress, it has Jamie Bamber (from "Battlestar Galactica") in a good guest performance, it has some interesting clues and development and particularly great material for Fran Kranz (Topher) and Amy Acker (Dr. Saunders/Whiskey).


More at the end of the link. We, however, scored a look at four posters promoting the new season of the show.


I am roughly about 4 episodes into DOLLHOUSE: SEASON ONE - look out for the review on THN tomorrow - but already they're promoting the second season of the Joss Whedon sci-fi series that is set to debut in the US later in the year (in a word - it's brilliant). Check out these two pics of the hotter than hit star and producer Eliza Dushku! Hawt!
