True Detective is HBO’s newest hit series, debuting to 2.3 million viewers which earned it the biggest opening night numbers since 2010’s premiere of Boardwalk Empire.

The series is executive produced by Harrelson, McConaughey, Nic Pizzolatto, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Scott Stephens, Steve Golin and Richard Brown.
 
The Plot:
 
1995: Detectives Martin Hart and Rust Cohle, partners in Louisiana’s Criminal Investigation Division, are assigned to a macabre murder by a killer with disturbing occult leanings.

2012: When a similar case leads to an investigation of the original ’95 murder by two new detectives, Martin and Rust separately tell the story of both the investigation and their lives, including why Cohle left CID in 2002.

Why isn’t there more buzz about Blood Ties? Just look at this cast list: Clive Owen, Billy Crudup, Marion Cotillard, Mila Kunis, Zoe Saldana, and James Caan… Why haven’t we been hearing more about this film? Co-written by James Gray and Guillaume Canet, and directed by Canet, Blood Ties will be available via VOD and in theaters on March 21, 2014.

The Plot:

New York, 1974. Fifty-year-old Chris (Clive Owen) has just been released on good behavior after several years in prison following a gangland murder. Reluctantly waiting for him outside the gates is his younger brother, Frank (Billy Crudup), a cop with a bright future. Chris and Frank have always been different, and their father, Leon (James Caan), who raised them alone, seems to favor Chris despite all his troubles. Yet blood ties are the ones that bind, and Frank, hoping that his brother has changed, is willing to give him a chance — he shares his home, finds him a job, and helps him reconnect with his children and his ex-wife, Monica (Marion Cotillard). But Chris’ inevitable descent back into a life of crime proves to be the last in a long line of betrayals, and after his brother’s latest transgressions, Frank banishes him from his life.

Are you ready for the return of Vikings? The series is back for a much-anticipated second season on the History Channel on February 27, 2014 at 10pm ET/PT, and the network’s just put out three brand new photos from the upcoming 10-episode season.

The new pictures feature Travis Fimmel as Ragnar, Katheryn Winnick as Lagertha, and Alyssa Sutherland as Princess Aslaug.

Details on Vikings Season Two:

The hit scripted drama series centers on Ragnar (Travis Fimmel), a restless young warrior and family man who longs to find and conquer new lands across the sea and claim the spoils as his own. Now he is an Earl, allied with King Horrik (Donal Logue). With more power than ever before, his desire to sail west and explore new kingdoms remains unquenchable.

Yet there’s a heavy price to pay for Ragnar’s ascent to greatness. Season two brings crises of faith, of power, of relationships. Brothers rise up against one another. Loyalties shift from friend to foe, and unlikely alliances are formed in the name of supremacy. Plots are hatched, scores are settled, blood is spilled…all under the watchful eyes of the gods.

New to the cast of Vikings are Alexander Ludwig (The Hunger Games) as Bjorn, the intelligent and bold warrior son of Ragnar Lothbrok, and Linus Roache (Law & Order) as Ecbert, King of Wessex, a man of strength, knowledge and undisguised ambition. They join Travis Fimmel as Ragnar Lothbrok; Katheryn Winnick as Lagertha, a fierce shield maiden and Ragnar’s wife; Clive Standen as Rollo, Ragnar’s impulsive, wild, care-free brother; George Blagden as Athelstan, a young and not-so-innocent Monk; Jessalyn Gilsig as Siggy, beautiful wife of the late Earl Haraldson; Donal Logue as King Horrik, who desires to make the increasingly famous Earl Ragnar an ally and supporter; Gustaf Skarsgard, a ship builder who designs the new generation of Vikings ships; and Alyssa Sutherland as Princess Aslaug, Ragnar’s new love interest.

Pop star Justin Bieber’s following up his alleged eye-throwing incident with an arrest for driving under the influence, resisting arrest (without violence), and driving with an expired drivers license. Bieber was driving a yellow Lamborghini that was involved in a drag race on a residential street (the police report indicates he was traveling between 55-60 mph in a 30 mph zone) when a Miami Beach officer pulled him over. The officer immediately smelled alcohol and noticed Bieber had bloodshot eyes and a “stupor look on his face.”
 
The officer instructed Bieber to get out of his car and Bieber responded by asking, “Why the f**k are you doing this?” Because Bieber kept putting his hands in his pockets after he was instructed not to, the officer told the 19-year-old pop singer to turn around and put his hands on his vehicle. According to the police report, Bieber replied, “What the f**k did I do? Why did you stop me?”
 
Bieber was eventually arrested for continuing to not do as instructed. After being given a test at the station, it was determined Bieber was impaired. He also admitted to drinking, smoking pot, and taking prescription medication.
