14 Pics of Zac Efron Looking Hot in The Lucky One

post from BuzzSugar on 16 April 2012 12:25:18 PM. © BuzzSugar

Zac Efron's come a long way from High School Musical - just check him out in the trailer for The Lucky One. Efron put on some muscle to play a former Marine in the film, and boy does it suit him well. Not only that, but he's sporting some serious tats and putting the moves on costar Taylor Schilling. We have some of the best stills from the Nicholas Sparks adaptation, and we're hoping this will satisfy us until the movie comes out next week. So for now, fill up on these shots of his crystal blue eyes, strong pecs, and knowing glances. Feel free to go through it a couple times. We won't judge you.

The Daily Beast: "The Good Wife's Bad Mother"

post from [Televisionary] on 16 April 2012 12:07:57 PM. © [Televisionary]

71-year-old Mary Beth Peil is stealing scenes for her work on CBS? The Good Wife. Over at The Daily Beast, you can read my latest feature, "The Good Wife's Bad Mother," in which I talk to the former opera singer and Dawson?s Creek star about playing Jackie Florrick.While The Good Wife?s title refers, rather cheekily, to Julianna Margulies? Alicia Florrick?who found herself embroiled in a political and sexual scandal at the start of the series? run?the show explores both individuals? and society?s definitions and expectations of wives, mothers, and career women. Margulies? Alicia juggles work, children, and romance, often without much regard for her own well being, perhaps outside of a solitary glass of red wine at the end of a day in court. Yet Alicia?s outlook, behavior, and mores are constantly commented on or outwardly attacked by her mother-in-law Jackie Florrick, played by 71-year-old Mary Beth Peil, who began the series as a babysitter for Alicia?s teenage children but who has recently emerged as the show?s de facto villain.Peil is perhaps best known for her role as religious-minded Evelyn ?Grams? Ryan on six seasons of teen-centric soap Dawson?s Creek, but the Tony Award-nominated actress began her career as a soprano, performing with the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Opera, and Boris Goldovsky?s company. Peil will once again display her singing skills as Solange LaFitte in a limited five-week revival of Stephen Sondheim?s Follies in Los...

Collision: The Emasculation of Pete Campbell on
Mad Men

post from [Televisionary] on 16 April 2012 12:07:57 PM. © [Televisionary]

"What do I do here?"Throughout the series thus far, Mad Men's Pete Campbell (Vincent Kartheiser) has been presented as many things: a slimy weasel, an ambitious businessman, an amateur rapist. But this week's episode ("Signal 30"), written by Frank Pierson and Matthew Weiner and directed by John Slattery, focused on the character flaws of Pete Campbell (referred to as a "grimy pimp" here) to the point that the episode really ought to have been entitled "The Emasculation of Pete Campbell," for the number of male-driven crucibles it put the seemingly smug married executive through over the course of an hour. (Some, such as James Poniewozik and Myles McNutt have argued that this season of Mad Men has replaced subtext with overt symbolism, but while I agree with that assessment, it hasn't diminished my love for the show or my regard for this particular well-crafted installment.)It's been no secret that Pete is desperate for the approval of Don Draper (Jon Hamm), his surrogate father figure. While Pete keeps a secret for Don, what he's wanted in return for his silence and trust is nothing less than unconditional love and approval, something that Pete was unable to get from his own father while he lived. From the puppy-like beaming when Don and Megan (Jessica Paré) choose to visit him and Trudy (Alison Brie) in the suburbs, it's only too clear that he requires Don's affections, presence, and approval in his life. But Pete is on a dangerous path. Inasmuch as Pete wants...

"We had certainly bred a lot of familiarity and love for each other so it was like an old pair of comfortable boots that you could put back on and kick it around a bit," Baldwin tells THR of working with Fillion again.

Survivor - Mocking Jay

Just Annihilate Them: It'd be easy to get on Jay's case for bailing on immunity for food or for handing Kim the keys to the bus and then throwing himself under it. Easy and accurate. But we come here not to bury Jay but to give him comforting, lingering pats on the back and upper arms.
