For years, Reggie Lee’s Wu was the last to know everything about the Wesen world. As Season 5 of GRIMM played out last season, Wu was transformed and he felt more powerful. Reggie told us at San Diego Comic Con over the summer, though still unaware at the time that the show was coming to an end, that this season, “Wu [has always been] kind of managerial side of it all, so it’s been great to be a part of
Interviewing Miles Brown is always a highlight – the charming young actor (dancer/rapper/basketball player) is as excited to talk BLACK-ISH as he is to quiz me about Michael Jackson songs; he’s quick with a story and clearly loves his TV family like they were his own. He’s come to think of them as his home away from home, telling me “It’s just really crazy because I feel that we’re just a big family that is going through a bunch of
One of the many joys of talking to the cast from the ONE CHICAGO series (in this case CHICAGO FIRE) is the genuine love they all seem to have for each other – the love they have for the show, their characters, their city. It’s always fun to be a part of that. When we were in Chicago, our first interview of the day was with Miranda Rae Mayo (Stella), Yuri Sardarov (Otis), and David Eigenberg (Herrmann). The three of
At this year’s One Chicago Day extravaganza in October, we had the chance to speak with CHICAGO MED’s Yaya DaCosta (April) and Marlyne Barrett (Maggie) about what’s coming down the pike for their characters. April is dealing with her TB, her relationship with Tate, her brother, you name it, and Yaya previews what the season will hold, while Marlyne talked about deepening the personal lives of these characters as we’ve entered the stability of Season 2. Check out their back
As a part of the One Chicago Day celebration held on location in Chicago last month, we had the chance to sit down with Jesse Lee Soffer, CHICAGO PD’s Jay Halstead, to talk about what’s coming up on the show, hear a little bit more about what might happen as a result of cohabitation with Erin, and how Antonio’s departure impacts the team. Added bonus: I might get story royalties for a suggestion I offer! Tonight’s all new episode (NBC,
Today’s One Chicago Day video celebrates last season’s addition to the CHICAGO universe, CHICAGO MED, as we discussed stitches, parrots, PTSD, jam sessions, and the day to day lives of physicians with Drs. Rhodes and Choi (Colin Donnell and Brian Tee). These guys have a lot of fun bouncing off of each other in the video above, and here are some of the highlights of our in depth chat (Brian in green; Colin in blue): On what they enjoy about
Jason Beghe joined us for a Q&A session as a part of NBC’s celebration for OneChicagoDay2016 and spent some time talking all things Voight. Does he have someone to lean on now that Jason is gone? How does he reconcile the fact that Voight is a murderer, telling others not to cross the line like him? Is he as intense as Voight? A really great chat with him, the full video for which I’ve included above! Here are some highlights
Last week, a group of writers converged on Lagunitas Brewery and the Chicago studios of CHICAGO FIRE, MED, PD, and new series JUSTICE, to celebrate One Chicago Day 2016. We got the chance to speak with the cast and crew from the shows, witness on set demonstrations like cracking open a chest with Colin Donnell, saving people who are on fire with Yuri Sardarov and Miranda Rae Mayo, and flipping a car with LaRoyce Hawkins. Not to mention, we got
Tonight on CBS, Joel McHale and Stephen Fry return to TV in CBS’ THE GREAT INDOORS, a show following McHale’s Jack, an adventure journalist who faces a digital takeover of his outdoor-lifestyle magazine, and a workforce full of millennials. Shaun Brown plays Mason, one of those millennials who is excited about Jack returning to roost, hoping he can learn something from this great adventurer. “They’ve [Millennial characters] have never been to the wild, they’ve never roughed it, at all,” Shaun
Echo Kellum, a standout from BEN & KATE (gone too soon) and one of my favorite guest spots on YOU’RE THE WORST (Tall Nathan of “Hey, Put That Down Brian.”), joined the ARROW team last season, and has quickly become an integral member. His Curtis Holt has a great rapport with Felicity, and it feels like he’s been there all along. He told me when we spoke earlier this week that it felt the same for him, as an actor
