According to the fine folks over at TVLine, this is a casting breakdown of the characters that will make up the Joss Whedon-helmed S.H.I.E.L.D. TV show being spun off from the mega-successful Avengers feature film.
Being the rabid Whedonite that I am, I immediately started picturing Whedonverse actors in the roles.

With a new Companion (the lovely Jenna-Louise Coleman) set to debut in the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special and the latest season of Doctor Who set to air this September, I thought it would be a good time to take a look at the best and worst of the many people to travel alongside The Doctor in his TARDIS.

Sherman “George Jefferson” Hemsley passed away yesterday at 74 and it got me to thinking…this guy was a legit TV star. he starred in two iconic TV shows in ALL IN THE FAMILY and THE JEFFERSONS, he starred in a very successful (if underrated) sitcom in AMEN and he co-starred in one of the best cult TV shows ever DINOSAURS. Add to that his billions of guest star appearances and the guy was everything you would look for in a major TV star. So with that being said I figured I’d take a look at the 5 most awesome things from Sherman’s career.

LUTHER
If you are a fan of Idris Elba and have wanted to see him in something more like his breakout role as Stringer Bell in the amazing HBO series The Wire (as opposed to playing Nicolas Cage’s sidekick in Ghost Rider or his thankless role in Prometheus) then I suggest you seek out his amazing psychological crime-drama Luther.
Detective Chief Inspector John Luther is an absolute mental mess of a man who has no issues with cutting corners or doing shady things in order to close a case. And the relationship between Luther and suspected murderer Alice Morgan (played remarkably by Ruth Wilson) is one of the most intriguing I have seen on an TV show. Luther and Morgan’s sexually charged game of cat-and-mouse drives most of the first season of the show and would be more than enough to justify watching the show.

10. Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba), SIN CITY
Like a lot of the women on this list, Alba was somehow able to pull off being a successful stripper who never got naked. In the real world that would get you immediately fired but in movies it seems to mean you are the most popular lady on the pole.

I don’t miss Tommy “The Lord of The Douchebags” Mickens at all. He was a total asshat and quite possibly the most unnecessary character in the history of television. However, there are some True Blood characters that I have a fondness for who were ushered into the afterlife a smidge too soon for my tastes. So click onward fellow TB fans and in preparation of Season 5 see the list of the 5 True Blood characters I miss the most!

Since the advent of storytelling there have always been tales that called for strapping fellas to don dresses, wigs and make-up so that they could pass themselves off as women. This time honored tradition has been repeated over and over in movies and on TV with one thing staying true throughout…that none of these dudes look like they could possibly be real women yet they fooled so many for so long in whatever movie/show they were in. So with that in mind I give you the list of male actors who would not stand a chance at being America’s next drag superstar!

While most of the world is honoring the best of motherhood on this Mother’s Day, I thought I’d take a different angle and look at the worst examples of mothering to ever be put on film. So put down the sappy Hallmark cards and last minute bouquet of flowers and click through to see the trio of worst movie mothers ever! Happy Mother’s Day!
Do you recognize William Zabka up there? If you’re a devotee of 80’s teen movies then you do even if you don’t realize it.
The staple of the teen-centric films of the 1980s was the role of the bullying douche. These guys always seemed to be good looking or rich or with the prettiest girl or popular or sometimes all of the above. And despite being blessed with so much they all were totally horrible human beings whose only goals in life were to make the already crappy existences of the social misfits in their circle suffer even more than they already were. So let’s take a look at the 10 douchebags who made it on my list.

Famous families are a crap shoot. The odds are so wacky that you have a shot at either being equally major stars like Warren Beatty and Shirley MacLaine or marginally uneven but still respectable stars like David and Patricia Arquette. But then there are the other situations where one sibling goes on to superstardom while their brother/sister toils in obscurity for the most part in the same industry that the other is shining so bright. It is with that set of circumstances in mind that I give you my list of the Top Not-Quite-As-Famous Siblings of Famous Actors!
