Some good news for fans of Will & Grace craving a little quality time with Will, Grace, Jack and Karen (and let's not forget Rosario!): Lionsgate is releasing two Best Of DVDs—Will & Grace: Best of Love & Marriage and Will & Grace: Best of Friends & Foes—on May 5.
Each two-DVD collectors' set features 16 episodes. While the Love & Marriage set includes Jack's green-card marriage to Rosario, which is one of my all-time favorite episodes, Friends & Foes is made up of episodes featuring famous guest stars like Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears and Madonna.
Say you're immortal, and you've served in the battlefields of the Civil War and the trenches of World War I. Wouldn't you eventually want to sit out World War II and Vietnam? Yet Hugh Jackman's mutant Wolverine and his brother (Liev Schreiber) serve in all four wars during a prologue for "X-Men Origins: Wolverine."
The battles set the tone for "Wolverine" from which director Gavin Hood rarely deviates. The prequel telling the back story of one of the "X-Men" trilogy's favorite heroes is all about tough guys fighting, with every trick and weapon imaginable.
Oh "The Edies" of Grey Gardens -- those Bouvier-family black sheep, those crazy cat ladies, those hams of the famously haughty Hamptons. They were so hoity-toity and so law-dee-daw, mangy but magnificent, broken yet unsinkable -- and we just can't seem to get enough of them. Ridiculously glamorous, endearing, pathetic and prophetic -- they remain every drag queen's dream!
They mesmerized us in the enduring '70s "Grey Gardens" documentary, their lives (interpreted by Christine Ebersole and Mary Louise Wilson) brought us to our feet in the Tony Award-winning "Grey Gardens" Broadway musical, and now they're sparking new excitement in a biopic of the same name, premiering on HBO Saturday, April 18, and starring Oscar-winner actress Jessica Lange and America's reining sweetheart Drew Barrymore.
Fans are shouting and cameras are at the ready as screenwriter Diablo Cody swans her way up a red carpet. The only thing awry: ditsy Donna Martin, who has managed to snag herself in Cody's gown.
That's "Beverly Hills 90210" Donna, who is returning to her old stomping ground for two episodes of CW's second-generation version, "90210" and, to Tori Spelling's delight, the character she played for a decade hasn't changed.
We'll be treated to some man candy on Brothers & Sisters when Jason Lewis reprises his role as Kevin's ex Chad on Sunday, April 19.
Regular viewers of the show will recall that Kevin met the closeted soap star— who actually had a girlfriend—at the gym (where else?) way back when, and the two began dating.
As with most of the recent remakes of classic '80s films, I'm not sure we really need a new version of "Clash of the Titans."
Granted, the stop-motion special effects (we used to call it "claymation" back in the day) left alot to be desired, but that didn't overshadow the epic storyline, rich with mythical characters -- and of course how sexy Harry Hamlin looked in his physical prime, who by the way is still devilishly handsome.
HBO has released the official trailer for the April 18th broadcast of Grey Gardens. Based on the lives that inspired the Maysles Brothers' classic documentary, the new film tells the story of "Big Edie" Beale (Jessica Lange) and her daughter "Little Edie" (Drew Barrymore), who forged a unique bond while living in a ramshackle East Hampton mansion.
