PILOT SEASON 2012: American Stars Not Fairest Of All Of Them In Pilot Lead Castings
You will find two Beauty And Also The Animal aircraft pilots this year, one at ABC and something in the CW, with the quest for stars to experience the title roles one of the most carefully viewed this year. Ultimately, no leads visited American stars. The title roles within the ABC Beauty And Also The Animal, which adheres nearer to the classic story book, visited youthful Irish actress Ruth Bradley (Sophistication also known as Beauty) and Scottish singer-actor Darius Campbell (Shiro also known as Animal). The CW pilot, in line with the eighties series, cast within the title roles Canadian beauty Kristin Kreuk (Catherine) and Australian hunk Jay Ryan (Vincent). From the four, only Smallville alumna Kreuk is really a title within the U.S., as the other three are virtually unknown. Furthermore, the ABC project includes a third lead, a dashing prince, who definitely are performed by Australian Chris Egan. It is a fact that Beauty And Also The Animal’s roots aren't American — it began off like a French story book — but it's carefully connected using its most well-known adaptation by Disney.Despite the fact that American screen adaptations of favorite anecdotes generally have some protagonists consult with a British accent, the entire shutout of yankee stars in the major figures within the two Beauty And Also The Animal projects is surprising. Especially after ABC’s hit fairytale series Not So Long Ago utilizes mostly American stars however cast, including lead Jennifer Morrison, Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow Whitened), Lana Parrilla (Evil Full) and Josh Dallas (Prince Charming). The 2 Beauty And Also The Animal projects aren't the sole aircraft pilots this year to cast non-American stars his or her leads with what has turned into a growing trend in the last decade. The legendary U.S. comic character Eco-friendly Arrow has been performed by Canadian Stephen Amell. Charge inside a show known as Americana is performed by an Aussie, Anthony LaPaglia. Another Australian actor, Jesse Spencer, will have charge within the NBC drama Chicago Fire. Also representing Here is Rachael Taylor, who arrived the feminine lead within the ABC drama 666 Park Street. British actress Jesse Montgomery will have charge within the CBS drama pilot Baby Large Shot, fellow Brit Minnie Driver will have among the two leads in NBC’s Kari Lizer comedy, James Purefoy will have the co-lead opposite Kevin Sausage in Fox’s Kevin Williamson drama, and, in her own U.S. TV debut, Scottish actress Georgia King got the feminine lead in NBC’s comedy pilot The Brand New Normal. It had been a large year for Irish stars, too: Additionally to Bradley’s casting in ABC’s Beauty And Also The Animal, Irish actress Amy Huberman, in her own first-ever U.S. audition, arrived the feminine lead within the NBC comedy Animal Kingdom.

Breaking In Boss on Adding "Comic Force" Megan Mullally and the Rollercoaster Ride to Renewal
Ginnifer Goodwin There's definitely a chill in the air on the Once Upon a Time set. It's hard to keep warm as a cold winter rain falls on a picturesque town square an hour from Vancouver that's doubling for Storybrooke, Maine. But no weather, even in Canada, can match the cold contempt with which Storybrooke's mayor, Regina (Lana Parrilla), treats constituent Mary Margaret (Ginnifer Goodwin) in today's scene at a town fair. The sweet-faced young woman is only trying to be charitable, selling candles to help the local nuns, when Regina and her son, Henry (Jared Gilmore), stop at her booth. The mayor plays compassionate until the 10-year-old walks off, and then she turns to Mary Margaret and hisses, "No amount of helping nuns is going to save your soul." Brrr! If words were daggers, Mary Margaret would have been cut to shreds. But this is Storybrooke, the "real" world, not the ABC hit's alternate realm, the magical Fairy Tale Land, where Regina is known as the Evil Queen, adept at malevolent spells and potions. And meek grade-school teacher Mary Margaret? She's feisty Snow White. One thing both worlds share: The conflict between the Evil Queen/Regina and Snow/Mary Margaret "is ground zero," says Adam Horowitz, who created Once with Edward Kitsis. "Everything spirals out from there." Both producers are Lost alums, and they've incorporated some tropes from that iconic show into their latest fantasy series, including flashbacks - using new takes on old tales to reveal backstories for the characters. But Once Upon a Time is fundamentally a more warmhearted, family-friendly project than Lost. "From the start, we wanted to write a show about hope," says Horowitz, "And that quest for wish fulfillment is at the core of every fairy tale we do." Kitsis seconds the thought. "If Lost was about fathers and sons and redemption, this show is about mothers and daughters and hope." That recipe, which mixes in plenty of romantic turmoil, is a winner. Once is the most successful new drama this season, averaging just under 10 million - mostly female - weekly viewers (12.3 million when seven days of DVR use are added), and has the youngest demos on Sunday night. Renewal is all but certain. Here's a primer for those not yet in the Once family: Fueled by hatred of Snow White and her new husband, Prince Charming (Josh Dallas), the Evil Queen conjured a curse that planted false memories in the residents of Fairy Tale Land. She then exiled them "to a place where there are no happy endings": Storybrooke, where time stood still. No one - with a few mysterious exceptions - can enter or leave, and the likes of the Royal Couple, Little Red Riding Hood, Jiminy Cricket and Cinderella live humdrum lives with no knowledge of their fantastic pasts. Enter Sheriff Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison), who was smuggled out of Fairy Tale Land as an infant by her parents, Snow and Charming. She's followed Henry, the son she gave up at birth, to Storybrooke, where he's been adopted by the tyrannical Regina. With Emma's arrival, the clocks started moving again. Got it? Playing two sides of the same character in different worlds is a welcome challenge for the actors. "The parts are so complex and layered," says Dallas. "My Storybrooke character, David, is the opposite of the confident Charming, who knows what his values are. Married to a woman he feels disconnected from, David is lost and confused and unable to explain his huge love for Mary Margaret." While both Goodwin and Parrilla also enjoy their double roles, Morrison insists she's just fine being Storybrooke-bound: "Everyone wants me to say I'm bummed that I'm not in both worlds, but there's so much going on with Emma. I can't imagine wishing that away." The March 18 episode, "Heart of Darkness," tunnels deep into the animosity between the Queen and Snow White while exploring another recurring theme: Evil is made, not born. "The Evil Queen didn't start out dark," says Kitsis. "The question is, what took away the light in her?" But this time, Snow's at the crossroads of good and evil. "The potion she drank in an earlier episode took away her love for Charming, and now there's a void in her heart," Kitsis says. Since she's plotting revenge against the Queen, it seems darkness has the upper hand. Meanwhile, back in Storybrooke, David's estranged wife, Kathryn (Anastasia Griffith), is still missing, and Mary Margaret, David's proclaimed true love and sometime mistress, is the prime suspect. She's troubled enough to ask the town's shady fixer, Mr. Gold (Robert Carlyle), the former Rumplestiltskin, to represent her. David and Mary Margaret are not the only ones who have reason to harm Kathryn, Horowitz teases. "We're going to look at a lot of characters in relation to Kathryn and start to wonder what the curse did to them," he says. "That mystery will play out through the season." How about looking at the woman who brought the curse in the first place? Not so fast, Parrilla says. "The curse could be more powerful than the Queen," she hints. "Rumplestiltskin warned that she was taking on something that had repercussions beyond her knowing." Someone darker than the black widow herself? Who? Well, there's the new guy, a self-proclaimed writer named August W. Booth (Eion Bailey), who somehow made his way into the spellbound town. His first act was to get his hands on Henry's totemic book of fairy tales. Is he a magical force? Or maybe the book's author? Bailey is enigmatic: "What I can share is that August is central to the story from its origin. He has an awareness that helps him know things that other people in the story do not. And he helps Emma see beyond the tangibl For more on Once Upon a Time, pick up this week's issue of TV Guide Magazine, on newsstands Thursday, March 8!

'Silent House' Exclusive Clip: What Disasters Lurk Upstairs?
The very first factor youll notice about "Quiet House" is its striking visual aesthetic. Using the quick growth of camera technology during the last decade, pretty photography is much more common these days in modern horror movies. But "Quiet House" includes a distinctive gimmick to split up it from the peers: the intimate outlook during Elizabeth Olsens character, whose side we rarely leave throughout the amount of the film. Within this exclusive clip, its night time in the house and Olsen and her father are settling set for the evening, transporting lamps since the lights appear to become out. As she listens to a noise originating from upstairs, she informs her father, "I figured I heard something available online for." He disputes it, obviously, because thats what fathers in horror movies do, but purports to go upstairs and take a look. As they manages the staircase, there is a slight rumbling without anyone's knowledge as Olsen watches her fathers light disappear into the darkness. The skills continue to be fuzzy, however with the possible lack of sun light youre really in the whim from the camera and whatever Olsen is searching at. (It might be nice when we all looked so sharp and well-defined under light light, but alas, thats not going to be true.) Horror movies are more frightening once they occur at nighttime, it is true. Additionally, it does not hurt by using her budding star energy and acting chops, Olsen is definitely an instantly strong protagonist to hold the film. It is not every single day the thing is a significantly-acclaimed actress undertake a straight horror movie, but knowing from what weve seen to date, "Quiet House" ought to be a pleasant role inside a lengthy career. Inform us that which you think about the "Quiet House" clips within the comments as well as on Twitter!

Downton Abbey Finale Earns Biggest PBS Ratings in Three Years
Lindsay Autry When does frozen mousse trump perfectly cooked halibut? When you're on Top Chef! Despite her nearly inedible, ice-hard confection, Sarah - with some major backing from Tom Colicchio - made it to the finale with Paul over her pal Lindsay Autry, whose error-free, albeit less creative, dish sent her packing. "I think they were really nitpicking at that point and it came down to doing something risky like what she did against me being great, but not risky enough," Lindsay tells TVGuide.com. "I know I didn't make any mistakes, but I guess they wanted to see more." Was she surprised that her well-made dish lost to such shoddy execution? Find out below.Top Chef's Beverly: I definitely felt the fan supportThe edit seemed like it was really close between the three of you. Did it feel that way up there?Lindsay: I really feel like even when it got down to the four of us - even before Beverly got back - that it was a close game. One little thing is what sends you home because at the end of the day, only one person can win. But I did feel that it was really close. At Judges' Table, they all had very positive things to say. I don't know if they aired it or not since I didn't see it, but Padma said that she thought it was one of the best dishes I made all season. Then it was like, "Pack your knives and go." I was like, "Oh, OK." [Laughs] "Great, thanks!"Well, Gail fought for you and liked your dish overall. And Tom really fought for Sarah. She, obviously, had the bigger mistake with the frozen mousse. Why do you think she edged you out? Did her doing something risky like that, even though it failed, outweigh your consistency?Lindsay: Well, we had a break between Texas and Canada. I think that Paul and I came back staying true to who we've been all season, and I think that Sarah came back more inspired. She showed that this whole experience made her grow as a chef and made her more creative. I think that when it came down to it that it did come into play - the judges were able to see that Sarah stepped it up and took a risk and showed something. And I'm really proud of her for doing that. ... Standing in between the two of them while we were cooking - seeing Sarah pull out an anti-griddle and Paul was doing a powder and using liquid nitrogen - I knew in that moment that, yeah, I might be going home since I wasn't doing anything crazy or risky with molecular and modernist techniques. But I felt that I stayed true to what the concept was, and I think that's what Top Chef is truly about, so no regrets. Food is very subjective; it's all about your interpretation.You did the tomato ice that they loved.Lindsay: Yeah, I knew that conceptually that I went really far with the Fire & Ice theme. Every component of what I did fit. Ultimately, I think my downfall was my cocktail. I think it wasn't as intriguing as what Sarah and Paul did. But I also knew my cocktail was the only one that really tied in to the dish. ... In every single challenge, there was that one thing like, "Why are we doing this?" As a chef, it's important that you're part of your beverage program because food and drink go hand in hand. But I didn't think that it would come down to me going home over a cocktail. I thought it would be judged more on the food.Were you happy you redeemed yourself with halibut after the Restaurant Wars fiasco?Lindsay: [Laughs] Tom made a comment about that when we were in the kitchen - that I chose halibut because of what happened with Beverly and I was like, "Oh my God! I didn't even think about it!" I really didn't. I got to Whole Foods and I really wanted to use black cod, but they didn't have enough, so I went with halibut. I didn't do it out of spite. It was the only fish they had enough of for 150 people!Top Chef's Ed: What's the point of Last Chance Kitchen?Restaurant Wars was probably your low point. Would you agree?Lindsay: Uh-huh. [Laughs] Restaurant Wars was definitely when I felt at my lowest. I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that I wasn't in the kitchen because it's a cooking competition and I wasn't touching my own food. I'm very hard on myself. Even though we won, I talked to Beverly and Grayson and Sarah, and none of us felt like we really won that one because it was so challenging.Why did you choose halibut, knowing that Beverly had to cook it for you, instead of something with an easier prep?Lindsay: I didn't think it was difficult. I knew that Beverly's dish was a little bit elaborate and I felt that after we had talked everything through, there only needed to be three steps to my dish. Obviously, it evolved into more than that to get it out. I picked my dish last. I let Sarah, Beverly and Grayson decide what they wanted to do since I was doing front of house. We obviously needed a fish course, so that's why I did it. And for the past three years, I've run a very seafood-focused restaurant, where I cooked fish every single day. In my mind, it was an easy pickup. But we're all very different in what we do.A lot of fans didn't like how you treated Beverly there, especially since she was being picked on so much. Did you have any other problems with her like Heather and Sarah did?Lindsay: I never had a problem with Beverly. Up until that point, I had never worked with her in a team effort. And we roomed in different rooms, so I didn't really have a lot of interaction with her, which I think a lot of people who watch the show don't understand, whether it's because of the editing or whatnot. I really didn't get the chance to get to know her. In Restaurant Wars, a lot of it has to do with editing. If you watch, I kind of lose my sh-- on everybody. [Laughs] It wasn't just her. I did get a little more intense with her because people weren't eating my dish. After seeing six people not eat my dish, it was like, "Oh my God! What's going on?" I just kind of lost my cool. But I never had any problem with her. Even after it was over, she was telling me, "I'm so sorry." And I was like, "Don't worry about it. I'm sorry I blew up." I mean, none of us had time to think this through. Four hours to open a restaurant and four executive chefs trying to work together? It's meant to be chaotic.What did you think of Last Chance Kitchen?Lindsay: I remember thinking when we were riding the bikes for Pee Wee Herman that there was no way that this is the last challenge to go to the finale. It can't be this, like something is happening. When we did find out, at first, I think Ed, Paul, Sarah and I were a little, I guess, annoyed. In our minds, we were done and you kind of let yourself go out of focus for a second. I think the concept was a great idea because in certain circumstances, chefs go home early for other people's mistakes or whatever. I think Nyesha really proved herself there, but even though she had a good run, it would've been difficult for her to come back after winning so much. I think the thing that upset us at the beginning is that we never stopped. We kept doing all these challenges and even though they did their own challenges, they already dealt with being eliminated, and I think that only makes you stronger.Top Chef's Grayson: I wasn't excited about Last Chance KitchenSince they do simpler challenges on Last Chance Kitchen, do you think it's fair that someone could win Top Chef without going through all the challenges on the actual show?Lindsay: Well, I think it was great that Beverly got to come back and redeem herself. I think that she came back a stronger chef, but I think that it ended up the way it needed to be. Even bringing her back, it just kind of worked itself out that the people who are left have been here the whole time. We'll see what happens if they continue it.Speaking of the bike task, what did you think of all the wild challenges this season?Lindsay: When I found out that we were going to Texas, which was just a few days before we went, I knew that there was going to be a lot of barbecue and chili type of challenges. I was surprised at how many group challenges we did. I did feel that a lot of the challenges were very physical, more so than in past seasons. Sometimes I felt like I was on Survivor. [Laughs] Like, "Oh my God! I should've done that PX90 before I left! Maybe I could run faster!" But I think that's what Top Chef is all about. They put you in these surreal situations to test how good a chef you are. Even though none of what we did had anything to do with the day-to-day life of being a chef, flexibility and your ability to adapt is something we deal with every day and I think that this whole season was just taking that to the extreme.What are you up to now?Lindsay: I'm doing a lot of dinners and appearances. I recently left my position in Palm Beach and I'm pursuing some other opportunities, so we'll have to stay tuned and see!
