In a 'Flash': DC's speedster sprints into prime time this fall
Grant Gustin stars in “The Flash”
Superheroes have been dominating box offices and television screens around the world for years. While Marvel has most recently taken a majority of their heroes to the big screen with the Avengers franchise, DC Comics has been focusing production on the small screen.
Cedar Cove, on Hallmark
Olivia (Andie MacDowell) begins to unravel secrets as she uncovers what's behind Jack's (Dylan Neal) unusual behavior in this new episode. At the same time, Seth's (Corey Sevier) return causes problems for Justine (Sarah Smyth).
Q: Have any of the "Price is Right" models gone on to do anything else?
Assuming that your definition of "anything" is strictly entertainment-based (they've all gone on to do something with their time, but you're likely not, for example, interested in the one who went on to be a small-time real-estate magnate), the answer is yes, but not many.
The most famous is Gena Lee Nolin, who translated her daytime game show fame into daytime syndication fame on "Baywatch" (its episodes first aired in prime time, but it went on to a bigger second life in afternoon reruns).
Last Man Standing, on ABC
Tim Allen brings his manly man persona Mike Baxter back to prime-time in this highly anticipated season premiere. Nancy Travis co-stars as his loving wife Vanessa, and together the Baxters watch their three daughters grow up and move on.
A stand-up guy: 'Mulaney' could become ''Seinfeld' for a new generation'
The cast of “Mulaney”
Stand-up comic? Check. Oddball pals? Check. Eccentric guy across the hall? Check.
Bad Judge, on NBC
Rebecca Wright (Kate Walsh) is a real wild child, but she also happens to be one of the best criminal court judges in Los Angeles in this new series. While she may be well-respected in the courtroom, she parties too much and plays drums in a band.
Q: I've written some scripts for some TV shows and movies. Who can I see at CBS that I can run them by?
Unfortunately it's not as simple as that. There once was a time when people could just send scripts to networks and have them turned into shows, but today it's all agents and contracts and layers of red tape.
Criminal Minds, on CBS
Jennifer Love Hewitt joins the cast as seasoned FBI undercover agent Kate Callahan in the milestone 10th season premiere. In the season opener, the team investigates a series of gruesome murders in Bakersfield, Calif.
Manhattan Love Story, on ABC
Dana (Analeigh Tipton) and Peter (Jake McDorman) navigate the tricky waters of modern-day dating in this new comedy. This unique series allows viewers to hear what Dana and Peter are thinking, highlighting the differences between men and women.
