The Daily Beast: "Big Love Returns"

Big Love returns on Sunday evening with its fourth season and a hell of a lot of neck-snapping plot twists to come.

Head over to The Daily Beast, where you can read my latest piece, entitled "Big Love Returns," which is actually a gargantuan Q&A-style interview with Big Love creators/executive producers Mark V. Olsen and Eric Scheffer.

And when I say gargantuan, I mean it. Olsen and Scheffer talk about the role of identity this season, the paths that Bill, Barb, Nicki, and Margene each take in Season Four, as well as subplots relating to Alby, Roman, Cara Lynn, the power struggle at the fundamentalist compound, Bill’s campaign for public office, Sissy Spacek's character, and more.

So head over there and check it out. And be sure to head to the comments section to discuss what you're most looking forward to about Season Four and where you think the story is heading.

Season Four of Big Love begins Sunday evening at 9 pm ET/PT on HBO.

The most captivating aspect of "Big Love" is the perfect combination of women for Bill. Imagine if you could get the best of all three in one woman!
Best HBO Fictionalized/reality based series ; "The Wire". No recognition, bo awards, blackballed by the wizards of the award circuit. Get it form Netflix!

Katie Lee Packs Her Knives: Breaking News from Bravo's "Top Chef"

The android has left the building. Or the test kitchen, anyway. Top Chef 's robotic host Katie Lee Joel, the veritable "Uptown Girl" herself (pictured at left), will NOT be sticking around for a second course of Bravo's hit culinary competition. According to a well-placed insider, Joel will "not be returning" to the show. No reason for her departure was cited. Unfortunately, the perfect replacement for Joel, Top Chef judge and professional chef Tom Colicchio, will not be taking over as the reality series' host (damn!). Instead, the show's producers are currently scouring to find a replacement for Joel. Top Chef 's second season was announced by Bravo last month, but no return date has been set for the series' ten-episode sophomore season. Stay tuned as this story develops. UPDATE (6/27): Bravo has now confirmed the above story .

BuzzFeed: Meet The TV Successor To "Serial"

HBO's stranger-than-fiction true crime documentary The Jinx   — about real estate heir Robert Durst — brings the chills and thrills missing since Serial   wrapped up its first season. Serial   obsessives: HBO's latest documentary series is exactly what you've been waiting for.   The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst , like Sarah Koenig's beloved podcast, sifts through old documents, finds new leads from fresh interviews, and seeks to determine just what happened on a fateful day in which the most foul murder was committed. And, also like  Serial  before it,  The Jinx may also hold no ultimate answer to innocence or guilt.

Instead, this upcoming six-part tantalizing murder mystery, from director Andrew Jarecki ( Capturing the Friedmans ), is a gripping true crime story that unfolds with all of the speed of a page-turner; it

BuzzFeed: "The Good Wife Is The Best Show On Television Right Now"

The CBS legal drama, now in its sixth season, continually shakes up its narrative foundations and proves itself fearless in the process. Spoilers ahead, if you’re not up to date on the show. At BuzzFeed, you can read my latest feature, " The Good Wife Is The Best Show On Television Right Now," in which I praise CBS' The Good Wife and, well, hail it as the best show currently on television. (Yes, you read that right.) There is no need to be delicate here: If you’re not watching The Good Wife, you are missing out on the best show on television. I won’t qualify that statement in the least — I’m not talking about the best show currently airing on broadcast television or outside of cable or on premium or however you want to sandbox this remarkable show. No, the legal drama is the best thing currently airing on any channel on television. That The Good Wife is this perfect in its sixth season is reason to truly celebrate. Few shows embrace complexity and risk-taking in t
