Ringer 1x11 Promo: It Just Got Normal



Former All My Children Alum Sarah Michelle Gellar's cult hit tv series Ringer returns tonight and promises to provide a lot of drama.

While Ringer has struggled in the ratings recently, it still has a possibility of coming back next season, do you think the series deserves it? And what are you liking or disliking about this confusing drama? Let me know in the comments below.

Stephen Amell Cast as Green Arrow!

Actor Stephen Amell has been cast in the title role of Green Arrow for the CW's upcoming pilot Arrow. Amell is known for his guest appearances on various programs such as Hung, Private Practice, and Vampire Diaries.

The character was last portrayed on Smallville by former Passions star Justin Hartley.

While I cannot say I am happy about the news (I was REALLY looking forward to seeing Hartley front burner in his own show), I will give the pilot a view when it becomes available and will try and keep an open mind while doing so.

Are you guys excited for Arrow? Are you disappointed Hartley isn't going to be participating? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

Why Are You Not Watching Days of Our Lives?




In September 2011, Days of Our Lives underwent a new regime and has been consistently improving over its last episode. Great socially relevant storytelling about characters we know and love have been implemented, as well as an improved use of its veteran cast (having the fab 4 driving as well as supporting story!) - yet the ratings don't reflect a liking for Days 2.0.

While I will 100% agree that Days is leaps and bounds away from being perfect, it is still a really interesting show that has continued to keep my attention and leave me wanting more, especially considering how SMART some of the scripts and storylines are.

So here is my question to you. Why are you not watching Days? Better yet what could Days do to get you to tune in? (*cough* answers like "Make it One Life to Live" or "Cast Trevor St. John as the REAL Todd Manning" don't count but are appreciated! *cough*). Let me know your thoughts in the comments!

Home and Away: Who Will Bianca Choose Promo (Jan 30 - Feb 3)




Okay this is one of my favorite promos EVER! I am such a sucker for the original theme song! And it PROVES that the theme song means something if they are using it... *glares at Cameron Welsh* With that said I guess the absence of the theme song has made me grow fonder of it, so...

Anyways Bianca makes her choice, Heath or Liam, who's it gonna be? I pray Liam but if not I hope Liam tells Binc's to kick rocks because he isn't gonna wait around forever, but hey that's just me.

Van Hughes Bringing Cole Thornhart to General Hospital!


We all kinda knew this one was coming! It's been confirmed that actor Van Hughes will be bringing the One Life to Live character Cole Thornhart over to General Hospital to help wrap up Cole's relationship with Starr Manning (essentially freeing her up to go be with 'someone else', until cancellation rolls around and she dumps her current boyfriend for Cole all over again...yeah I'm a bitter James fan and what?).

I am happy to hear this news; I was wondering how they would address this issue and I am glad to see they are taking the time to at least give the coupling some closure and undo the happy ending realistically vs. off camera.

What about you? Are you happy Van Hughes is returning? Or would you have liked an off-camera break up more? Let me know in the comments below.
