What’s transpired over the last 9 weeks is a mystery that features twist after twist, the least of which being that the boy who returned wasn’t Adam at all. Add to that, it was revealed that middle child Willa (Alison Pill) not only knew but planned the whole thing with the imposter. To preview the next explosive episode of the
Television shows sometimes impact viewers so much that they touch their hearts and change their lives. I’ve written here at mytakeontv before about what a powerful tool TV can be. This year’s Winter TCA’s gave NBC a chance to show off some of its more noble shows. And three of them – Chicago Fire, Chicago P.D., and Chicago Med come from Executive Producer Dick Wolf. Wolf joined Colin Donnell (Chicago Med), S. Epatha Merkerson (Chicago Med), Monica Raymund (Chicago Fire),

As Hallmark’s Hearts of Spring gets set to premiere, I had the pleasure to speak exclusively with one of its stars, Lisa Welchel (The Facts of Life). Tell me a bit about your character, Carly Ashby. She writes a parenting blog, she’s single, her daughter is a senior in high school getting ready to go off to college, and she’s kind of finding love the second time around. What do you admire most about her? I would say I admire
When DR KEN premiered in the fall, Ken Jeong and the critics didn’t always see eye to eye about his passion project. As the show has continued along on Friday nights (and the contention between Ken and critics appears to have subsided), it has pulled in solid numbers, earning the first full season order of the Freshman series, while strengthening the family dynamic and diving into the personal lives of Ken’s work mates. It’s a show with an incredibly loyal

Superman’s Master Jailer (sort of) is on the verge of marking his Supergirl debut. And the Master Jailer himself, Jeff Branson, called me to chat about his very first appearance. First of all, how did you prepare for this role? I did my homework. Google’s how I prepared for this role. I wanted to know every incarnation of the Jailer. When I was reading comics, I never came across him. He was used in a different era. I wanted to
