Episode Detail: Money for Nothing and Chicks for Free – The Secret Life of the American Teenager
A possible employment opportunity opens up for Anne. Elsewhere, Adrian makes an effort to change her style, and Jack continues to help those in need by raising funds for underprivileged children.
ABC Family has made a heft commitment to “The Secret Life of the American Teenager,” ordering an extra-long second season for the hit drama.
On Monday (Feb. 9), ABC Family announced the pick-up of a 24-episode second run of “American Teenager” tentatively set to return in the summer of 2009.
That will leave fans of the show with only a brief window with “The Secret Life of the American Teenager,” which will complete its first season on March 23.
“‘The Secret Life of the American Teenager’ has really struck a chord not just with our Millennial audience, but with viewers across the board,” says Kate Juergens, ABC Family’s executive vice president for original series programming and development. “We’re delighted to announce the series will return. The success of this show goes directly to creator Brenda Hampton’s telling of this heartfelt story and is backed by the standout performances of our talented cast.”
After a successful summer premiere, ABC Family moved “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” into a Monday night 8 p.m. slot opposite “Gossip Girl.” The drama has thrived in that slot, ranking as TV’s most watched program in the hour among females 12-34 (2.1 million) and as cable’s most watched show in total viewers (3.7 million) and adults 18-49 (1.7 million).
The show’s first season, focusing on the various relationships impacted by an unplanned teen pregnancy, was 23 episodes. The series stars Shailene Woodley, Molly Ringwald, Mark Derwin, India Eisley, Ken Baumann, Daren Kagasoff, Francia Raisa, Megan Park and Greg Finley.
The renewal of “The Secret Life of the American Teenager” had been expected for some time. ABC Family also just ordered up new seasons of “Greek” and “Liberty Heights,” plus 10 episode seasons of the comedies “Ruby and the Rockits” and “10 Things I Hate About You,” as well as the drama “Perfect 10.”
Desperate Housewives continued its string of unexciting but inoffensive episodes tonight as the mystery inched its way along, becoming less mysterious and more of a slow march toward the inevitable climax. Surprise me, Marc Cherry!
Actually, it was “inoffensive” aside from the opening voiceover, which points out: “It’s not hard to spot a mother who works outside of the home. Just look for a woman leaving her house who looks incredibly guilty.” You know, I’m not loving the implied judgment on working moms there. At the very least, shouldn’t both of the parents look guilty?
When Mike lets Katherine take over some of his parenting duties, Susan freaks out. And while she’s a bit rude to Katherine at first and a bit psycho towards the end, I completely understand her insecurity. Blackjack! Brownies made from scratch! A wee little chef’s hat! And to top it all off, MJ running away from home to eat one of Katherine’s paninis. The sound of his adorable baby voice saying “provolone” just twists the knife. Maybe it isn’t called for when Susan accuses Katherine of trying to dig her claws deeper into Mike by making her place like “Disneyland” for MJ, but I get where it’s coming from, and I really feel for Susan when Katherine announces that Mike is moving in with her.
Tom Scavo may be the worst husband and dad ever. Seriously. I mean, I get that your dream business is in trouble, but using your kids as free labor? Is that even legal? And it goes even more poorly than you’d think, with Tom slamming Porter into a wall and shaking him violently when he refuses to wait a table with kids from his school. Much as I already disliked Tom, I never would’ve expected that from him. Nor would I have expected Lynette to make out with him afterwards, even if he did just agree to sell the restaurant.
Carlos’s company won’t be giving out any bonuses due to the economy, even though he’s been working like crazy. But a little boss blackmail goes a long way, and Gaby is back in the diamond bracelets in no time. Takeaway lesson: If you’re having an affair, don’t make out with your mistress in a convertible downtown. Takeaway lesson #2: Don’t then knock up your wife and let her ask your already-wavering blackmailers to be your baby’s godparents based on their strong moral compasses. Carlos is totally going to crack.
When Orson finds out that Bree secretly gave Andrew a hefty (and apparently well-deserved) raise, he tricks his way into finding out Andrew’s salary and then freaks out when he realizes that it’s twice what he makes. Um, dude, Andrew’s got company seniority, and your previous job experience drilling cavities and making license plates in prison probably doesn’t apply to the catering biz. Just be happy that Bree let you whine your way into a job. Orson: “You’re saying I’m worthless!” Bree: “No, I’m just saying you’re worth…less.” Ha!
Dave has been using Dr. Heller’s phone to text updates in to the practice, which explains why no one has come looking for him. But it sounds like he’s going to get busted soon, so he invites Mike and Katherine on a Camping Trip of Probable Doom, pressuring Edie into hiding from Katherine that she won’t be coming. And yeah, the giant handgun Dave is packing probably pushes it over into a Camping Trip of Definite Doom.

(ABC/CRAIG SJODIN) BALTHAZAR GETTY, DAVE ANNABLE, MATTHEW RHYS
That’s what I’m hearing from sources over at Brothers & Sistersexit storyline for Balthazar Getty. And it’s —that producers have penned what appears to be an perfectly scandalous…and perfectly fitting. (You fans will be shocked.) After weeks of rumors that Getty has been causing problems on the set, sources tell us exclusively that episode 19, titled “Spring Broken,” will be Getty’s last of the season. According to insiders who work on the show, Getty’s character, Tommy Walker, will have a very dramatic and surprising storyline in coming episodes, in which he willalert!—go to jail, get out on bail and go on the lam in —spoiler Mexico.
But here’s the really scandalous part…
Sources tell me that before he goes, Balthazar’s Tommy will get thoroughly wasted, flirt with young girls and get a nice slap across the face from his mother, Nora (Sally Field). Maybe mother always does know best? For those of you who haven’t been following Brothers & Sisters (and you really should be, ’cause this solid series is getting even better in coming episodes), Tommy hatched an illegal plan to edge Holly (Patricia Wettig) out of the Walker family business. He’s done some pretty illegal things to achieve his goal, like embezzle $2 million from the company. Hence, the trip to jail, and, well, you’ll see the rest.
Will you miss Balthazar on Brothers & Sisters? What do you think of what’s in store for Tommy? Source:E!Online
Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight’s ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Exit Debunked
Both ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ creator Shonda Rhimes and co-star James Pickens Jr. deny the departure of the two main cast.
“Grey’s Anatomy” creator Shonda Rhimes says the rumors about Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight’s departure from the show are “interesting”. Attending the NAACP Image Awards on Thursday, February 12 where the show was named Outstanding Drama Series, Rhimes emphasized that the exit is mere “rumors”. “That was absolutely taken out of context,” she explained to People. “Things happen, and … I think rumors become fact very easily. And you know I don’t like to tell you what’s going to happen on the show – but that is a rumor.” Also providing another denial is the show’s star James Pickens Jr., the very same man who confirmed first hand about the two stars leaving. “We had been living with so (many) rumors, when the question was asked of me, I was pretty much just trying to congratulate Katie and T.R. on whatever their endeavors are going to be,” Pickens told Access Hollywood. “And that’s exactly what they are, rumors! We don’t know any more. And until they get a new script, we don’t know what’s going to happen.”
Sneak Peek of Tori Spelling’s Return on ‘Smallville’ 8.15: Infamous
‘Smallville’ welcomes back the gossip queen columnist, Linda Lake, who is having another ulterior motive against Clark.
The re-appearance of Tori Spelling as Linda Lake in “Smallville” has been teased through a sneak peek. The show is currently taking a hiatus to come back on March 12 with the episode titled “Infamous”. Linda Lake comes back to Smallville and blackmails Clark to undercover his true identity. However Clark decides he will reveal his secret by himself and a fanatic teenager fakes a fall so Clark saves her. Stephen Lobo plays Randall Brady, the Daily Planet’s new City Editor. The episode will also mark the reign of Lois and Clark. Executive producer Brian Peterson said, “Lois returns in a big way, as she finds her feelings for Clark increasingly rivaled by her quest to get closer to the enigmatic Red-Blue Blur.” Linda Lake first appeared in a 2007 episode where she is hired by Lex to gather informations that would bring down Clark. She has the ability to turn to water which she uses to find saucy stories for The Daily Planet.
Clark: “Lois, I want you to tell my story …. I’m the Red-Blue Blur.” Lois: “I guess I should stop calling you ‘Smallville’ then.” Among the other super scenes and sound bites: Linda sneering, “The only thing people like more than bulding up heroes is tearing them down.” A seemingly conflicted Davis saying, “I was sent to this planet to kill Clark.” Lois Lane giving [Linda Lake] a serious smackdown. Source: TV Guide Online
Clark picks Lois up at the airport upon her return to Metropolis. When he shows up a bit late, Lois starts to feel that remembering her isn’t very high on his priority list…. of course once she learns the secret, it all will start to make sense. When Clark tells Lois about his abilities, she at first thinks he is joking. Lois thinks she’s the first person Clark has told, before he reveals that he told Chloe and Lana before her. Davis is curious about how much of the recent weeks that Chloe actually remembers. There is a chance Lois and Clark might be doing something they were interrupted from doing back in “Bride.” Source: KryptonSite

Swan will appear in this season’s 17th episode, “Hex,” as Zatanna, a magician who grants birthday girl Chloe a wish. Having been through the wringer ever since Brainiac mind-boinked her and Doomsday crashed her wedding day, Chloe expresses a desire to lead the comparatively mild-mannered life of Lois Lane. Voilà!

Just don’t expect Michael’s son to factor into Ben’s mission to return select former castaways to the isle.

02/08 – Remember when Nate was poor and huddling under a tartan sleeping bag trying to keep warm in the basement of his family’s seized Upper East Side townhouse on Gossip Girl? Well, don’t worry, he isn’t poor anymore because… well, something happened, I’m a little unclear actually. But maybe these two have something to do with it. TVGuide.com has learned exclusively that Aaron Tveit and Holley Fain have been cast as Nate’s very wealthy cousin Tripp Vanderbilt and his fiancée, Maureen, who is a girl and therefore does not need a last name of her own. The posh pair will appear in two upcoming episodes, in which Poor Little Match Boy Nate reconciles with his mother’s powerful family. Source: TV Guide Online
Forget that ho-hum Oscar nomination. Now Anne Hathaway has something even cooler to brag about: her very own Gossip Girl plot! The show is planning a season-ending story line loosely inspired by the actress’ infamous (and fizzled) romance with Italian grifter Raffaello Follieri, who was convicted last October on 14 counts of wire fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy. In the world of Gossip Girl, Blake Lively’s Serena will play the unsuspecting ingenue who falls for a handsome European socialite — in this case a hunk named Giorgio (casting is under way). Though she won’t confirm or deny the story’s Hathaway-esque twists, executive producer Stephanie Savage reveals that Serena’s beau is “very well-traveled, part of the global elite. He’s not a brooding artist like Dan or Aaron rose. He’s definitely a grown-up, and that’s something Serena is very attracted to.” Word is that GG’s version of the story will take a turn that is so much darker than the Hathaway saga that it ultimately puts Serena’s life in danger. Moreover, it triggers the return of Michelle Trachtenberg’s Georgina Sparks and casts our heroine’s sworn frenemy in the unlikely role of savior.
What do you guys think? Is GG smart to be ripping stories from the headlines? Or are you annoyed that so early in its run, its writers are already cribbing plotlines from the tabs? Sound off below. (You first, Anne.) Source: EW
‘Gossip Girl’ Speak of the Week: Blairnoid and Ment-Whore
Two new ‘Gossip Girl’ guides are released by The CW to give fans insight to the terms often used in the show.
Two new featurettes are released for “Gossip Girl“, dubbed Gossip Guide – “Speak of the Week”. The first one is called “Blairanoid”, the syndrome which is related to Blair’s attitude while the second one is called “Ment-Whore”, a twist to the word mentor aka Rachel. Lesson number #39 teaches about “the belief that everyone is jealous of your perfection and therefore, out to get you.” This leads to a side effect which is found in lesson number 14 “Dorot-Abuse”. Dorota is the faithful maid in the Waldorf family who often keeps up with Blair’s eccentricities and finds secrets within the family. Lesson number #56 is about the affair between a teacher and a student aka Rachel and Dan. Rachel is the new Shakespeare teacher who joins the show in the second season. Played by Laura Breckenridge, the character was mistaken to be a student when she first arrived at Constance Billard and jumped into trouble when she gave Blair a B. The new episode of “Gossip Girl” returns March 16.
A recent scoop of ‘Desperate Housewives’ reveals that two of Wisteria Lane women residents will hook up in a kiss.
Something is steaming on “Desperate Housewives“. Things are heating up between Gabrielle Solis (Eva Longoria) and Susan Meyer (Teri Hatcher), not in the sense of ‘bring out the claws’ but rather in the form of a kiss. An exclusive report by Celebuzz reveals that the two characters will lock lips in a future episode and romping will be going on. This remains an unconfirmed story but when the rep for creator March Cherry is approached for comment, they said they will “leave it to the imagination.” No clue yet in which episode the kiss would occur. Meanwhile, the show will be back this Sunday, February 15 with an episode called “In a World Where the Kings Are Employers”. Susan starts a new job in order to give son M.J. the best, but when Mike leaves their son in Katherine’s care, anger and jealousy pervade.

It’s the moment you Chuck fans have been waiting for: Chuck and Sarah are getting married! And as you can see in the sneak peek above, Jenny McCarthy is totally trying to steal him away, the little trollop. It all goes down on this Monday’s episode and…OK, the Sarah-Chuck marriage is all a ruse for a mission.
Still, we just interviewed Chuck boss Josh Schwartz himself at New York’s Comic Con, and he gave us some very promising news about the could-be couple’s future! (Did someone say cohabitation?) Jenny McCarthy may be putting the moves on Chuck, but that’s not the only action he’ll be getting this year, according to Schwartz. “This season Chuck will have his first kill and have his own move, a cool spy move.” Holler! Our dorkalicious hero is really stepping it up. But what about the sexy action between Chuck and Sarah? Once the Jonathan Cake debacleis over, that topic will definitely come up. Schwartz reveals: “There are natural obstacles to them getting together. For instance, if they fall in love it jeopardizes their job.” Bummer. Silver lining? “We’ve thought about Chuck and Sarah living together,” adds Schwartz. Ummmm…Yes, please!? With sister Ellie getting married, it only makes sense, right?
Guest Stars Galore:
Tricia Helfer: According to Schwartz, she plays a hot agent, Alex Forrest, who seduces Captain Awesome. (Warning: Avert your eyes cause it may be too much prettiness on one screen.)
Arnold Vossloo: He’s a Fulcrum agent who helps to identify Chuck as the intersect. Also, says executive producer Chris Fedak, “We’ll get to see the inside of Fulcrum’s headquarters; it’s like Tron.“
Chevy Chase: Tech mogul Ted Roark is not a friend to Chuck, especially when he orders him killed.
Scott Bakula: Sarah is actually going to help Chuck find his father via the CIA, but “don’t assume Chuck’s dad is a spy,” says Schwartz.
Do you want Chuck and Sarah to end up together or do you think that’ll be the end of the show? How about the list of guest stars?
Oh, and we forgot one. Check out Andy Richter putting the moves on Sarah and the other sneak peeks below…
