Edie Falco As Nurse Jackie

Edie Falco Sizzles As Nurse Jackie

I’ve written about Edie Falco and Nurse Jackie since the very beginning of the series.  It is probably my all time favorite TV series right now.  Edie’s acting and the plots on Nurse Jackie along with the supporting cast is just spectacular.

Now that Season Four of Nurse Jackie is in production, some of the hot new guest stars for the season are being announced and they’re all killer.  It was announced a few weeks ago that Oscar and Emmy nominated actress Rosie Perez would be checking in to All Saint’s.  Besides Rosie it was announced that Bobby Cannavale would also be popping up in the fourth season of the cable hit.

Cannavale, whose credits include Will & Grace as well as Six Feet Under, will play a formidable hospital administrator sent by the new conglomerate that buys the financially strapped All Saint’s Hospital to improve its efficiency and profitability.

Now it’s just been announced that Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong will be guest starring on the series’ upcoming fourth season, as well.  (more…)

Heck Family (LR) Mike, Frankie, Axl, Sue, Brick

One of my favorite Twitter buddies ,@woofette 30, runs AnyHourGifts.com a fun website with amazing gifts for pets and their humans.

Besides loving animals, she loves ABC’s The Middle as much as I do.  Last season we tweeted some of the best snippets of the Middle’s shanigans.

Some of the best parts of The Middle, in my opinion, are the actions of the three Heck children.

Meet The Heck Children – Axl, Sue And Brick

There’s the oldest Heck, Axl (Charlie McDermott), who is in high school and is that perpetually bored and lazy jock who lives for football, hanging at the pool in the summer as the lifeguard and chasing girls.

The middle child is Sue (Eden Sher) who more than makes up for Axl’s laziness with her can-do attitude.  Even though she’s flops miserably at everything she does.  She also wears braces and embodies the classic goodie-two-shoes dork personality.  Then there’s Brick (Atticus Shaffer), the youngest, who’s a classic bookworm with a bad case of chronic procrastination.

As if three quirky kids isn’t enough to drive Frankie Heck (Patricia Heaton) crazy, she’s got her husband Mike (Neil Flynn), her job at the car lot and her strange boss who insists upon calling her Francis. (more…)

Billy Gardell & Melissa McCarthy

Mike & Molly star Melissa McCarthy (born August 26, 1970) actually has two husbands.  There’s her real husband, actor Ben Falcone, who appeared with her in Bridesmaids (the air marshal).

Then there’s her on-screen TV, Billy Gardell, 41, who plays Mike Biggs to her Molly Flynn (CBS, 9:30 p.m. ET/PT).

McCarthy married Ben Falcone, a fellow alumnus of The Groundings, on October 8, 2005.  She has two daughters, Vivian, born May 5, 2007 and Georgette, born March 2010.  Her pregnancy with her firstborn was written into the final season of Gilmore Girls.

Ironically neither one of McCarthy’s husbands were present at the recent Emmy Awards when she beat out a world class group of funny ladies like Tina Fey and Amy Poehler to win for Lead Actress In A Comedy.

Of course the group of comedians got together and did the category like a beauty pageant awarding McCarthy with a crown and roses.  It was the highlight of the entire Emmy broadcast. (more…)
