First Look: Anna and Elsa in ‘Once Upon A Time’

Aug 10, 2014

We’ve been seeing plenty of Queen Elsa appearing in her new role on season 4 of Once Upon A Time and even a glimpse of Kristoff and his reindeer. Now, we have a first look at Anna and Elsa together in the new season. Following the introduction of so many new characters, I’m curious what direction Once will be going after Peter Pan and the Wicked Witch. Elizabeth Mitchell has been cast as the potential new “Big Bad” of the season and Georgina Haig, Elizabeth Lail, and Scott Michael Foster join the cast as Kristoff, Anna, and Elsa.

I actually think these two look great in the roles. Only time will tell how good a fit they are once the cameras start rolling.

Season 4 of Once Upon A Time returns on September 28th at 8/7c on ABC.

Monique Curnen Joins ‘Person of Interest’

Aug 6, 2014

TVLine

Person of Interest is adding a new face to the season 4 cast. TVLine reports that Monique Curnen has been cast in the recurring role of Lionel Fusco’s new boss at the precinct. She previously appeared on Lie To Me. Will there finally be some non-corrupt blood in that place? While I’m happy to see some new additions, I do still miss Detective Carter on the show. Sometimes, it’s just not the same. But I’m really looking forward to seeing what she brings to the table.

Monique Curnen will first appear in the third episode of the new season.

Disney Renews ‘Girl Meets World’ For Season 2

Aug 6, 2014

Big news for Girl Meets World fans! The Disney Channel has renewed the successful new series for a second season. This is especially impressive as the series has only aired five episodes. Girl Meets World stars Rowan Blanchard, Sabrina Carpenter, Ben Savage, Danielle Fishel, August Maturo, Peyton Meyer and Corey Fogelmanis.

“The series swiftly became a favorite of kids and their parents, many of whom grew up with Boy Meets World,” Disney Channels Worldwide original programming EVP Adam Bonnett said in a statement. “We’re looking forward to watching Riley Matthews and Maya Hart make the world their own, as Cory and Topanga teach them life lessons along the way.”

The series will also be featuring surprise appearances by Lee Noris, who played Minkus, and Rider Strong, who played fan favorite Shawn Hunter.

John Stamos To Guest Star on ABC’s ‘Galavant’

Aug 4, 2014

Is it just me or is Galavant starting to sound better and better? The upcoming musical fairy tale series from ABC just added another dashing face to the cast list. And I’m not talking about Timothy O’Mundson’s beard, which, on its own, is quite dashing and magical. John Stamos is set to guest star on the series as a knight and rival to Joshua Sasse’s lead character Galavant. John’s character will appear in one episode but has the possibility to becoming recurring. I think that’s a good idea.
