Filed under: Reality-Free , Celebrity Interviews , Finales Last night’s ‘Parks and Recreation’ season finale was a game-changer for the show. Something big happened to every major character in the last act of the last episode, setting up a Season 4 that will have a lot going on. Both in my recap and in my colleague Mo Ryan’s assessment , we bring up those changes and speculate what that might mean for the show coming out of a successful third season — one that placed the series among the best on television

Filed under: American Idol ‘American Idol’ executive producer, Ken Warwick hopped on the phone yesterday for a somewhat random, though very much appreciated conference call with the press. With all the attention focused on the voting process, after Pia Toscano’s elimination, it was reassuring to hear that Warwick and company are mulling over some major changes. Though Warwick said there won’t be any adjustments this season, it’s clear ‘Idol’s’ tenth year and the changes it brought, have been a learning process for producers.

Two years after viewers waved goodbye to McKay and Hewlett in the ‘Atlantis’ series finale, the fan-friendly genre actor is resurrecting his most famous role tonight with a guest spot on Syfy’s ‘Stargate Universe’ (Mon., April 4, 10PM ET).

Filed under: Reality-Free , TV News The McKinley High School gang is getting sexy next week as Gwyneth Paltrow returns for her second episode of ‘Glee.’ The songs from ‘Sexy’ were released online today, and they’re quite delightful. The big group number this week is an interesting choice: Standard Vocal Band’s ‘Afternoon Delight.’ It’s an oldie, sure, but one awesome thing keeps it from boring-ville: STAMOS.
