America’s Most Wanted is returning to primetime with Elizabeth Vargas (20/20) as host. Fox confirmed the series will premiere in March and has the support of the original host, John Walsh.

“Capturing dangerous fugitives, bringing justice to victims and finding missing children is my lifetime’s work,” said John Walsh. “I am so excited to hear America’s Most Wanted is coming back and I support its return. God bless.”

“America’s Most Wanted empowered viewers to help America successfully capture some of its most dangerous fugitives,” stated Rob Wade, President, Alternative Entertainment & Specials, FOX Entertainment. “By bringing back this groundbreaking series with new and effective tech-based crime-fighting tools and acclaimed journalist Elizabeth Vargas, we hope to continue John Walsh’s long-standing mission to be a powerful voice for crime victims everywhere.”

The original series debuted in 1988 and ran for 25 seasons. Over that span, it was credited with helping to capture more than 1,186 criminals and with reuniting 43 missing children with their families.

John Ferracane is the showrunner and executive producer, with Jim Clemente, Tim Clemente, and James Bruce of XG Productions and Glenn Geller also executive producing. The series is a FOX Alternative Entertainment production.

Fox released the following description of the 2021 revival:

America’s Most Wanted will investigate some of the country’s most dangerous fugitives. Each week, Vargas will ask for viewers’ help as she breaks down cases from the show’s new headquarters, consulting with a team of experts representing law enforcement units such as the FBI, U.S. Marshall’s Office and Secret Service.

Returning at a time when social media and technology loom large in the public consciousness, America’s Most Wanted will offer a unique and urgent opportunity for viewers to be armchair detectives by helping law enforcement solve some of the toughest cases.

Deploying a myriad of advanced, modern-day developments in technology over the last several years, the series builds on its original format, in which crimes are reenacted, by utilizing new state-of-the-art crime-fighting technology, such as augmented reality and 3-D life-size avatars that will illustrate what suspects might look like now, pinpoint map-tracking that will take the audience hot-on-the-trail of suspects, and social media that connect viewers to the America’s Most Wanted team at lighting-fast speed. Viewers at home can attempt to aid in the pursuit of justice by using social media to try and help law enforcement track down culprits and keep America’s neighborhoods safe.

The CW’s Walker, a reworking of the ’90s series Walker, Texas Ranger, premiered on January 21, 2021 with Supernatural‘s Jared Padalecki taking on the title role. Having never watched an episode of the original series, I can’t comment on how close this new Walker series is to the original which starred Chuck Norris. What we did learn in season one episode one is that in this version Walker will be dealing with the death of his wife, his estrangement from his kids after being away on a case for almost a year, and getting to know his new partner played by The 100‘s Lindsey Morgan.

Up next, episode two directed by Steve Robin from a script by Anna Fricke. “Back in the Saddle” will air on January 28, 2021 at 8pm ET/PT.

In addition to Jared Padalecki as Cordell Walker, the season one cast includes Kale Culley (Me, Myself and I) as August, Violet Brinson (Sharp Objects) as Stella, Keegan Allen (Pretty Little Liars) as Liam, Molly Hagan (Herman’s Head) as Abeline, and Mitch Pileggi (The X-Files) as Bonham. Coby Bell (The Gifted) plays Captain Larry James, Lindsey Morgan is Micki, and Jeff Pierre (Once Upon a Time) plays Trey Barnett.

“Back in the Saddle” Plot: WALKER TRIES TO RECONNECT WITH HIS CHILDREN – Walker (Padalecki) continues to try to reconnect with his family but finds that his kids have developed new routines with Liam (Allen). Back at work, Captain James (Bell) tells Walker he needs to get recertified to be a Ranger, but old memories of Emily (guest star Genevieve Padalecki) hinder his progress.

Micki (Morgan) investigates a suspicious fire.

The Plot, Courtesy of The CW:

Walker stars Jared Padalecki as Cordell Walker, a widower and father of two with his own moral code, who returns home to Austin after being undercover for two years, only to discover there’s harder work to be done at home. He’ll attempt to reconnect with his creative and thoughtful son (Culley) and his headstrong, somewhat rebellious teenaged daughter (Brinson) and navigate clashes with his family – an ADA brother (Allen) who stepped in during Walker’s absence, his perceptive mother (Hagen) and his traditional rancher father (Pileggi).

Walker’s former colleague is now his Ranger Captain (Bell). Walker finds unexpected common ground with his new partner (one of the first women in Texas Rangers’ history) played by Lindsey Morgan, while growing increasingly suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his wife’s death.

The CW’s Legacies kicked off season three with an episode that found Landon refusing to resurrect, the Necromancer needing Alaric’s help persuading him to come back, and Hope still asleep. Episode one also found the students all pissed at Josie, Ric deciding everyone needed to bond via sports, and the Lady of the Lake entering the scene in her quest to find someone worthy to remove Excalibur from the stone before the Green Knight could get to it.

Lizzie led the gang as they attempted to free the sword, but apparently none were worthy until Rafael arrived and slipped it out as easily as a knife sliding through butter. It turns out Rafael is a descendant of King Arthur! By the end of the episode Hope had reawakened and reunited with Landon due to Rafael’s intervention.

Up next, season three episode two, “Goodbyes Sure Do Suck.” Episode two was directed by Eric Dean Seaton from a script by Benjamin Raab and Deric A. Hughes and will air on January 28, 2021 at 9pm ET/PT.

The cast includes Danielle Rose Russell plays Hope Mikaelson, Jenny Boyd is Lizzie Saltzman, Kaylee Bryant is Josie Saltzman, Quincy Fouse plays Milton “MG” Greasley, and Aria Shahghasemi stars as Landon Kirby. Peyton Alex Smith is Rafael, Chris Lee is Kaleb, Leo Howard is Ethan Mac, Ben Levin is Jed, and Matthew Davis plays Alaric Saltzman.

“Goodbyes Sure Do Suck” Plot: FINDING PEACE — The Super Squad pull out all the stops when they learn some devastating news involving one of their own. Alaric (Davis) turns to Sheriff Mac (Bianca Kajlich) for help getting some timely affairs in order.

Series Description, Courtesy of The CW:

Set in The Salvatore Boarding School for the Young & Gifted, and within The Vampire Diaries universe, Legacies tells the ongoing story of a new generation of supernatural students as they learn what it means to be special in a society that wouldn’t understand their gifts.

In season two, Hope Mikaelson returned to a world that had forgotten she ever existed and reunited with her former Headmaster, Alaric Saltzman. Working together, Hope and Dr. Saltzman ultimately rejoined The Salvatore School to lead their Super Squad of powerful vampires, witches and werewolves, including Lizzie & Josie Saltzman, MG, Rafael, and Kaleb and even a Phoenix, her true love Landon, into battle against a dizzying horde of fantastic and deadly monsters birthed from the Malivore Pit … and their old nemesis, The Necromancer, who was determined to resurrect Malivore.

As season three begins, Hope has risked everything to pull her friends back from the brink of a monstrous prophecy that threatened to doom them all. But when a heartbreaking loss shatters her whole world, Hope Mikaelson will be forced to fight fate itself.

Michelle Pfeiffer in a scene from Paramount Pictures’ ‘mother!’

In early 2020 Showtime announced an anthology series about America’s First Ladies with Oscar winner Viola Davis (Fences) on board to play Michelle Obama. Today, the network confirmed three-time Oscar nominee Michelle Pfeiffer (Love Truth, The Fabulous Baker Boys, Dangerous Liasions) has signed on to play Betty Ford.

The anthology series, currently going by the working title The First Lady, will be directed by Emmy Award winner Susanne Bier (The Night Manager). Bier will also executive produce along with Viola Davis, Cathy Schulman, Julius Tennon, Andrew Wang, Jeff Gaspin, and Brad Kaplan. Author Aaron Cooley (Four Seats: A Thriller of the Supreme Court) created the series and will write several episodes. Cooley will also executive produce.

“Michelle Pfeiffer and Susanne Bier have joined the brilliant and incomparable Viola Davis to bring the remarkable stories of these women into urgent, engrossing and long overdue focus,” stated Amy Israel, Executive Vice President, Scripted Programming, Showtime Networks Inc. “Michelle brings authenticity, vulnerability and complexity to all her roles, and Susanne is a visionary director who commands the screen with fierce honesty and a singular visual style. With these formidable artists in front of and behind the camera, we couldn’t be more thrilled – especially at this unique moment in time for our nation – about the powerful promise of The First Lady.”

Series Description, Courtesy of Showtime:

In the East Wing of the White House, many of history’s most impactful and world-changing decisions have been hidden from view, made by America’s charismatic, complex and dynamic First Ladies. This series will peel back the curtain on the personal and political lives of three unique, enigmatic women, tracing their journeys to Washington through an enlightening intimacy, with season one focusing on Michelle Obama, Betty Ford, and Eleanor Roosevelt.

Ford was the First Lady of the United States from 1974 to 1977. She was active in social policy and set a precedent as a politically active presidential spouse and one of the most candid first ladies in history, commenting on every hot-button issue of the time. She also raised awareness of addiction when she made her long-running battle with alcoholism and substance abuse public.

Review: ‘Our Friend’ Starring Dakota Johnson, Casey Affleck, and Jason Segel

Gravitas Ventures’ Our Friend is based on the award-winning article “The Friend: Love Is Not a Big Enough Word” by journalist Matthew Teague which shared with the world his wife’s battle with cancer and lessons learned as he struggled to deal with the impact of her diagnosis. Teague’s very personal story is told in a non-linear fashion, a choice that makes it unnecessarily confusing to follow. Despite that odd narrative decision, Our Friend still manages to weave a poignant tale of friendship, love, and loss.

In the film’s first few minutes we’re made aware Nicole’s (Dakota Johnson, Suspiria) battle with cancer is nearing its end. She and Matthew (Oscar-winner Casey Affleck, Manchester by the Sea) have come to the difficult decision it’s necessary to share the devastating news with their two young daughters, Evie (Violet McGraw) and Molly (Isabella Kai Rice). Both children are aware their mom’s sick but are unaware that her passing could be just a matter of days away.

From this emotional opening, the film jumps around over 13 years in the couple’s life, chronicling the beginning, middle, and ultimate end of Matthew and Nicole’s relationship. It also charts the dedication of the couple’s affable third-wheel, Dane Faucheux (Jason Segel, How I Met Your Mother), a friendly, compassionate, and unshakably loyal friend who commits to assisting the entire family through Nicole’s terminal illness. Without Dane, it’s unlikely Matthew would have been able to handle the stressful situation and keep his family intact.

Dane’s life is such that packing up and moving in to help care for Nicole, Matthew, and the kids is a relatively easy decision. He puts his life on hold to become a pillar of strength, as well as a sounding board, for the Teague family as Nicole’s health continues to deteriorate.

Dane’s the figure referenced in the movie’s title and the story’s heart and soul. It’s when Jason Segel’s involved in what’s happening on screen that Our Friend genuinely clicks. While their friends consider Dane to be clingy and a bit of a loser, Segel’s performance doesn’t jibe with either of those descriptions. Matthew and Nicole treat Dane like an adopted member of the family, and Segel portrays him as selfless, empathetic, and unconditionally supportive.

Dane’s so likable and interesting that Nicole and Matt’s story exists in his shadow and pales in comparison. It’s possible to connect more fully with Dane while Nicole and Matt as a couple just aren’t as engaging. A lot of that disconnect can be attributed to the disjointed way their story is laid out. That, and the fact Casey Affleck’s Matthew doesn’t evoke the sympathetic reaction necessary given his circumstances.

Dakota Johnson does a better job of providing insight into the couple’s relationship. But, again, skipping around and sampling moments out of order from the relationship’s timeline doesn’t allow a solid connection.

The story’s not so confusing as to require notes but is confounding enough to be a distraction and diminish the impact of this heartbreaking yet hopeful tale.

‘Bridgerton’ Earns a Much-Deserved Season 2 Renewal

January 21, 2021

Netflix has officially announced we’ll be getting a second season of Bridgerton from Shondaland and creator Chris Van Dusen. The news comes as no surprise given the series’ popularity with Netflix subscribers as well as with critics.

Season one currently sits at 90% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics calling it amusing, joyous, and fun escapism.

Bridgerton is inspired by Julia Quinn’s bestselling novels and stars Jonathan Bailey (“Anthony Bridgerton”), Nicola Coughlan (“Penelope Featherington”), Claudia Jessie (“Eloise Bridgerton”), Ruby Barker (“Marina Thompson”), Adjoa Andoh (“Lady Danbury”), Golda Rosheuvel (“Queen Charlotte”), and Luke Thompson (“Benedict Bridgerton”).

The cast also includes Luke Newton (“Colin Bridgerton”), Ruby Stokes (“Francesca Bridgerton”), Will Tilston (“Gregory Bridgerton”), Florence Hunt (“Hyacinth Bridgerton”), Ruth Gemmell (“Lady Violet Bridgerton”), Bessie Carter (“Prudence Featherington”), Harriet Cains (“Philipa Featherington”), Polly Walker (“Lady Portia Featherington”), Ben Miller (“Lord Featherington”), Sabrina Bartlett (“Siena Rosso”), Martins Imhangbe (“Will Mondrich”), and Lorraine Ashbourne (“Mrs. Varley”).

The season two announcement was accompanied by a teaser video and a note from Lady Whistledown.

The Bridgerton Plot:

Bridgerton follows Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor), the eldest daughter of the powerful Bridgerton family as she makes her debut onto Regency London’s competitive marriage market. Hoping to follow in her parent’s footsteps and find a match sparked by true love, Daphne’s prospects initially seem to be unrivaled. But as her older brother begins to rule out her potential suitors, the high society scandal sheet written by the mysterious Lady Whistledown (voiced by Julie Andrews) casts aspersions on Daphne. Enter the highly desirable and rebellious Duke of Hastings (Regé-Jean Page), committed bachelor and the catch of the season for the debutantes’ mamas.

Despite proclaiming that they want nothing the other has to offer, their attraction is undeniable and sparks fly as they find themselves engaged in an increasing battle of wits while navigating society’s expectations for their future.

‘Riverdale’ Season 5 Episode 2 Photos, Plot, Cast and Air Date

The CW’s Riverdale season five episode one found the gang continuing their investigation into the origin of the tapes, Archie losing a pivotal boxing match to Katy Keene‘s KO Kelly, and everyone looking totally glam for the coming-of-age ritual: the prom. Unfortunately, that celebration was cut short by the public screening of another snuff tape. Plus, Archie and Veronica’s relationship appears to be over after Archie confessed he and Betty kissed.

Up next, episode two directed by Gabriel Correa from a script by Janine Salinas Schoenberg and Devon Turner and airing on January 27, 2021.

The cast of season five includes KJ Apa as Archie Andrews, Lili Reinhart as Betty Cooper, Camila Mendes as Veronica Lodge, and Cole Sprouse as Jughead Jones. Madelaine Petsch is Cheryl Blossom, Marisol Nichols is Hermione Lodge, Mӓdchen Amick is Alice Cooper, Casey Cott is Kevin Keller, Mark Consuelos is Hiram Lodge, Skeet Ulrich is FP Jones, Charles Melton is Reggie Mantle, Drew Ray Tanner is Fangs Fogarty, and Vanessa Morgan plays Toni Topaz.

“Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Preppy Murders” Plot: GAME CHANGER — Betty (Reinhart) and Jughead’s (Sprouse) investigation into the auteur takes a twisted turn after receiving a call from Bret (guest star Sean Depner). Meanwhile, Archie (Apa) is forced to make an impossible decision when the person responsible for his father’s death needs his help.

Elsewhere, Veronica (Mendes) and Hermosa (guest star Mishel Prada) come up with a plan to force Hiram (Consuelos) into early retirement, and Cheryl (Petsch) makes a business move.

Season 5 Description, Courtesy of The CW:

The fourth season of Riverdale began with a funeral and tribute to Archie’s late father, the beloved Fred Andrews (Luke Perry). Throughout the season, Archie (KJ Apa) tried to live up to his father’s memory by mentoring youths at his Community Center with the help of his pals Reggie and Munroe Moore. But the shadow of that tragedy loomed over Archie—and only darkened when Fred’s brother Frank arrived, bringing unforeseen complications with him, much to the chagrin of Archie’s mother (Molly Ringwald).

Meanwhile, after Betty saved her mom and sister from the Farm cult, she joined her brother Charles’s Junior F.B.I. Training Program. Veronica found herself locked in a season-long battle with her father Hiram and half-sister Hermosa over her burgeoning maple rum business. And, at the urging on FP, Jughead enrolled in a new school, Stonewall Prep, only to be caught up in a mystery that involved his grandfather, the secret author of a series of teen detective novels called “The Baxter Brothers.” His classmates turned out to be killers—and it was up to Betty and Jughead (pretending to be dead) to solve the murder of…Jughead Jones!

At Thistlehouse, Cheryl was trapped in a gothic nightmare, fighting her demons, literal and metaphoric, with the loving support of her girlfriend Toni. She finally put her brother Jason to rest while maintaining her control over the Vixens as resident HBIC against Principal Honey (Kerr Smith). Kevin got dragged into an illicit tickle scheme, but still found time to put on a Variety Show with hit songs from Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

And throughout the season, disturbing unmarked videotapes kept appearing on our characters’ doorsteps, ensuring that there would be one more mystery to solve.

Season five of Riverdale will begin with our characters’ final days as students at Riverdale High. From an epic Senior Prom to a bittersweet Graduation, there are a lot of emotional moments and goodbyes yet to come — with some couples breaking up, as everyone goes their separate ways to college — or elsewhere. Then, we will redock with our gang as young adults, all returning to Riverdale to escape their troubled pasts. And life — and romance — will only be more complicated now that they’re in their twenties…
