Here’s an oldie but goodie — the 1987–1990 CBS series Beauty and the Beast, which features action movie stars Linda Hamilton of Terminator and Ron Perlman of both Hellboy and the current FX series Sons of Anarchy. I’d buy it…

Fox just uploaded a trio of sneak peeks for tomorrow’s fresh episode of Bones called “The Crank in the Shaft.”
The plot revolves around the murder of an office manager who was very much not liked, making it a tad more difficult to zero in on the perpetrator since there are several suspects who fit the killer bill.
Take a look at the three previews after the jump.

No, it’s not the same as Bravo renewing the CBS summer series Swingtown; but at least the basic-cable network has given the show a longer lease on life by acquiring the exclusive cable rights to its thirteen-episode single season to date.
Earlier today, Bravo announced its plans to add the 1970s drama to its stable of syndicated series that already includes the long-running staples Law & Order: Criminal Intent and The West Wing. As a result, fans of the show can look forward to reliving the tumultuous swinger experience some time in the near future, probably this fall.
And, who knows? …read more

The September 30 episode of 90210 is called “Model Behavior.”
The CW made sure to release the clip after the jump as soon as possible because it features new and old fan favorites Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth.
I’m more of a Shannen girl myself, and every time I watch her on-screen, all I can think is, “If only she were the star…” *sigh*
Sneak a peek at what’s coming up in the following clip. It’s the kind of intense, mature stuff I wish the series offered in greater quantities.

How long did it take you to figure out who the perpetrator was on “Trials,” the tenth-season premiere of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit? I got it a little over halfway through.
The episode opens with a twenty-block, high-speed van chase through the streets of New York. When the pursued vehicle finally stops, out pops the driver, Christopher Ryan (Jae Head), a little boy of seven who claims he’s fleeing his abusive foster parents. They are Gwen and Noah Sibert (Julie Bowen and Luke Perry), a seemingly normal couple into environmentalism who …read more

It’s the start of the new school year for the twins on the “All About What You Really, Really Want” episode of Privileged, although it offers more of the same: a crisis is born, Megan wants Rose and Sage to buckle down with their books, Rose and (mostly) Sage want to do everything but, Megan intervenes, and Rose gets the message (sort of) while Megan learns a profound personal life lesson and Sage continues to be a conniving little diva. No wonder the show’s most interesting characters are the men.
This time around, the central …read more

Team Olivia heads to New York on the September 30 episode of Fringe called “The Arrival,” and I hope wherever they shot the footage looks more authentic than the fake Boston backdrops that disconcert me so much.
The Big Apple trip happens after a “strange cylinder” is found in prefect condition, although it was in the midst of a recent explosion at a construction site. This discovery is followed by yet more odd connections that lead to the fun development of Peter hitting the field with the FBI. The more comic relief, the better.
Stills from the episode are after …read more
