Bloods
Quick Clicks Lynda Meyers thought we omit-
ted one point about the success of Blue Bloods in
our May 2 cover story. “I think it’s the only show
on television where the Catholic Church is
treated with respect,” she wrote. “The Reagan
family is proudly Catholic; they have friends
who are priests, and they actually practice
their faith—if usually just with a predinner
prayer. At the same time, the show doesn’t
lecture or proselytize. How refreshing!”…Inez Ross
has noticed a strange pattern among TV-character
deaths. “Why are all the female leads being
bumped off?” she asked. “First it was Abbie on
Sleepy Hollow. Then there was Elizabeth on The
Blacklist and Cami and Davina on The Originals. It
all seemed to start with the death of female cop
Carter on Person of Interest. How do they expect
these shows to go on?”

NBC THE GOOD PLACE
SNEAK
PEEK AT
FALL SHOWS
E
verything old is new again. The
broadcast networks are betting big
on familiar titles for the 2016–17
season, including adaptations of several
feature films.
Fox leads the charge with reboots of
two memorable movie franchises. The
1987 buddy-cop action comedy Lethal
Weapon will be introduced to a new generation with Clayne Crawford and Damon
Wayans Sr. as partners Martin Riggs and
Roger Murtaugh. The 1973 horror classic
The Exorcist also gets a makeover as a
psychological thriller following two priests
examining a case of demonic possession;

possessed. “We approached each show in
a different way,” says Fox Entertainment
President David Madden. “Lethal Weapon
beautifully reconfigures the amazing
chemistry between those beloved characters, while The Exorcist only takes inspiration from the feature and sets one family’s
living hell in a modern-day Chicago.”
NBC has tapped Jennifer Beals as the
lead of a prequel series based on the Liam
Neeson Taken franchise, while a Training
Day sequel set 15 years after the movie is
heading to CBS. The CW is remaking the
2000 sci-fi flick Frequency, about a woman
who can communicate with her estranged
father 20 years in the past via ham radio.
Time travel is another trend. The Fox
sitcom Making History stars Adam Pally,
Leighton Meester and Yassir Lester as
time-hopping pals balancing historical
adventures with their everyday lives. The
ABC drama Time After Time, from executive producer Kevin Williamson, chronicles
science-fiction author H.G. Wells traveling
to present-day NYC in pursuit of Jack the
Ripper. NBC drama Timeless is about a
criminal who steals a time machine.
On the comedy front, the networks are
welcoming back big stars. Among them,
The King of Queens’ Kevin James returns
to CBS with family sitcom Kevin Can Wait,
about a newly retired police officer. John

comedy Imaginary Mary, starring Jenna

and an untitled comedy from Sarah Dunn,
about a confident, curvy woman surrounded by perfection in her Connecticut
town. And Kiefer Sutherland returns with
Designated Survivor, playing a cabinet

after an attack on Washington.
CBS Michael Weatherly may have left
NCIS, but he will be back on the network
in Bull, a drama inspired by the early career
of Dr. Phil McGraw. CBS ordered medical
drama Pure Genius and is rebooting ’80s
action series MacGyver with 25-year-old
Lucas Till in the title role. Former Friend
Matt LeBlanc stars in Man With a Plan as
a contractor who starts spending more
time with his kids, while Community favorite Joel McHale leads The Great Indoors as
a reporter who becomes boss to a group
of millennials at an adventure magazine.
FOX LETHAL WEAPON
THE CW RIVERDALE
Fox The network upped its development
by 30 percent, and it shows with a wide
variety of dramas: Star, from Empire producer Lee Daniels, about three musicians’
road to fame; APB, in which a billionaire
takes over a police precinct; Shots Fired,
centered on the fallout after racially
charged shootings; and Pitch, about the
first female Major League Baseball player.
On the comedy side, It’s Always Sunny in
Philadelphia’s Kaitlin Olson leads The Mick
as a free spirit tasked with taking care of
her estranged sister’s kids, and Jason
Sudeikis headlines live-action/animated
hybrid Son of Zorn. Following the success
of the X-Files revival, Fox is relaunching
two more old properties with a Prison
Break update and 24 spinoff 24: Legacy.
NBC Dick Wolf’s Chicago universe gets
even bigger with the fourth installment,
Chicago Justice, focusing on Windy City
lawyers. DC Comics has its first comedy
series, Powerless, which follows an insurance adjuster tasked with cleaning up
superhero-inflicted messes. True Blood
author Charlaine Harris brings her brand
of vampires and witches to
broadcast TV in Midnight,
Texas. Also on tap: the
dramedy This Is Us, following a group of people who
share the same birthday,
starring Mandy Moore and
Milo Ventimiglia; the Ted
Danson/Kristen Bell selfimprovement comedy The
Good Place; the office comedy Great News from executive producer Tina Fey;
the Marlon Wayans–led
family sitcom Marlon; and
the Wizard of Oz–inspired
Emerald City.
ABC DESIGNATED SURVIVOR
The CW With Supergirl flying over from
CBS and the newly ordered Riverdale
(based on the Archie Comics universe),
producer Greg Berlanti is now responsible
for a whopping five shows on the network’s
schedule. Though much of The CW remains
genre-based, execs are hoping for romantic sparks with No Tomorrow, a comedic
hour about a polar-opposite couple who
set out to fulfill each of their bucket lists.

You might recognize stand-up comic Maria
Bamford as dippy Principal Thomas on Fresh

Netflix comedy, Lady Dynamite, she plays a
slightly surreal version of herself, readjusting to
Hollywood after a stint in a Duluth mental institution (the actress is bipolar in real life).
WHAT I DO
CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: MICHAEL DESMOND/SHOWTIME; STEFFAN HILL/© 2016 STARZ ENTERTAINMENT, LLC;
COURTESY OF DOMINIC PREECE; NETFLIX; MARK DAVIS/GETTYIMAGES
Dominic Preece,
Stunt Coordinator,
Outlander
H
ighland warrior Jamie Fraser
(Sam Heughan) has seen
plenty of battles. But he’ll
find himself in the fight of his life
in the June 11 episode of Starz’s
Outlander, when he and his fellow
Scots clash with British redcoats
in the gruesome 1745 Battle of
Prestonpans. Stunt coordinator
Dominic Preece, who has worked
on the series since Season 1 and
choreographed the game-changing
duel between Jamie and the evil
Black Jack Randall (Tobias Menzies),
tells us how he re-creates these
historic bloodbaths.
How do you make a choreographed battle look real? Anyone
can thrust a sword. [The key] is how
the defender reacts. It has to look
like they’re not expecting the blows.
[For this battle] we had a threeweek training camp for the 70 stunt
actors who play soldiers and taught
them four fight sequences so
they’re not all doing the same thing.
What research did you do? I had a
quick look on Wikipedia for background. [Laughs] We don’t have the
Hollywood feature-film budget, so
we shot in a [large tent] filled with
fog. That gave the impression of a
huge battle
Preece
and also
conveyed how horrific it
was with fighters unexpectedly
coming out of the mist.
Does Jamie have a superhero
moment? He takes on six redcoats
solo. For that, we had four hours
of rehearsal. We walk through the
fight. Sam videos it on his phone,
takes that home and watches it in
slow motion to learn it. We often
have to rein Sam in, which is great!
What makes 18th-century Scottish combat unique? The “Highlander charge.” They scream and
run at you full-tilt. There’s more
aggression and power.
What are the elements of a great
on-screen sword fight? We do
what we call a “clock” position: You
go for the head; either or both
shoulders; the torso; and then low
for the ankles and the thighs.
You’ve been a stunt performer on
Game of Thrones, The Bourne Ultimatum, Bond films…the list goes
on. How did you get your start? I
went to drama school to be an actor.
I wasn’t very good. [Laughs] I got a
summer job as a knight in a jousting
tournament and then was a rider
on the film First Knight. I watched
the stunt guys, thinking, “I can do
that.” I trained four years and became a stunt man in 1997. Outlander
is my first big coordinating job on
my own, and it’s great. —Kate Hahn
I have time to watch one more show. Why
should it be yours? Baby animals! Mental
illness! Love! This show is a miracle. I’m a 45year-old, low-energy relative unknown who’s
been given her own show—a late-in-life boon.
Who should be watching? If you’ve ever had
a breakdown of mind or circumstances, you
might really relate to this show.
Ana Gasteyer (left)
and Bamford
What happens if we don’t watch? If you
don’t like the show, it can be extremely useful
as a trampoline that rage-ricochets you to
create your own TV show, web series, puppet
opera or shadow dance.
What’s the best thing anyone has said about
Lady Dynamite? My mom wrote a list of things
she is proud of me for (I wish it was grammar,
but I think this sentence is starting out poorly),
and she says that I am open and supportive. I
hope people get that from the show. If no one
else, Maria Bamford supports you in your journey.
Give us an equation for Lady Dynamite. I Love
Lucy – Argo + Bejeweled.
Finish this sentence: “If you like _______, you’ll
love Lady Dynamite.” If you like watching a
barn raising, you’ll love our show.
What other series would you most like to be
a part of? I love Baskets, Happy Valley and Say
Yes to the Dress: Atlanta. —Aubry D’Arminio

Why We ♥The
Bachelorette
BY JENNY MCCARTHY AND DONNIE WAHLBERG
10
| TV GUIDE MAGAZINE
W
hen The Bachelorette premieres on May 23, a few things can pretty much be
guaranteed: red roses, overwrought emotions and an abundance of hair gel.
You can also bet that Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg will be watching
every second of it. By their own admission, the married couple and costars of A&E’s
Donnie Loves Jenny—he also plays Danny Reagan on CBS’s Blue Bloods and she hosts a
daily talk show, The Jenny McCarthy Show, on SiriusXM Radio—are hopelessly addicted
to ABC’s matchmaking franchise. We asked the self-appointed Bachelor Nation ambassadors to explain why they’re such superfans and share their thorns-and-all predictions about how JoJo Fletcher, the latest singleton to take the plunge into the
infamous Jacuzzi, will fare in her upcoming quest for love.
LEFT: JASON MERRITT/GETTYIMAGES. RIGHT: CRAIG SJODIN/ABC
Jenny McCarthy
I caught my first episode about 10 years
ago. I had just gotten a divorce, and I figured that if I was going to be on the singles market again, I should see what that
looks like. I instantly started imagining
myself as the Bachelorette—I thought, “I
would have a ball with these guys!” I went
so far as to call the producers and volunteer myself for the job. (They said no.)
After that, I watched it on and off. It
wasn’t until about two years ago—during
Juan Pablo’s season of The Bachelor—
that I became obsessed, and Donnie
started getting into it with me. Oh my
God, are we part of Bachelor Nation now.
For me, the main appeal is thinking
about the psychology behind what’s happening on the screen. These women and
men—but let’s face it, mostly women—
aren’t falling in love with another person.
They’re falling in love with a story in their
heads! It’s completely made up, but they
believe it so much. They meet this guy and
start picturing him as their husband. It’s
a very natural instinct for girls and also
where we get into trouble, because then
we miss the red flags. (My therapist always used to tell me that I had an amazing
ability to bleach red flags white.) Sometimes I’ll just stare at the TV, shouting,
“Girl, don’t fall into this trap!” and feel so
grateful that I’m not in my 20s dealing
with these issues anymore.
During that first year that Donnie and
I watched together, I remember looking
over at him at one point and noticing
that he was bawling. I said, “What are you
doing?” A girl had just gotten dumped,
and he was like, “I feel really bad for her.” I
took a picture of him crying and posted it
online—and it’s happened every season
since! He’s looking for the romance, and
I’m looking for the psych lesson.
This show teaches you so much about
relationships, especially what not to do.
I’ll be interested to see how JoJo handles
it. She has that wounded-bird thing
going for her. She’s been hurt in the past
and had her heart broken by [previous
Bachelor] Ben [Higgins]. I think she’s
going to lean toward choosing bad boys
even though they’re spiritually wrong for
her. She has a huge learning curve ahead
if she’s going to figure out how to spot the
bad apples, but I hope she gets a proposal.
Everyone wants the fairy tale, right? And
then afterward, the couple goes home
and there’s always a tragic ending!
Donnie Wahlberg
It all started when I kept hearing Jenny
call some person she was watching on TV
a douche, and I wanted to know who she
was talking about. (It was Juan Pablo.)
Now I’m completely hooked. Jenny’s a
die-hard fan, and I’m a cry-hard fan. I
cry a lot during The Bachelor and The
Bachelorette. I don’t come into it with any
jadedness. A lot of people have a negative
attitude like, “Aw, the show is fake.” But I
just look at it like, “Who’s this or that
person? What’s their deal?” I’m like an
emotionologist, trying to figure out
subtle behaviors.
Don’t get me wrong, sometimes I laugh
hysterically too. I enjoy the shtick. Like
last season, when that newscaster Olivia
[Caridi]—she’s one of my all-stars—
thought that Bachelor Ben was sending
her secret signals about their relationship?
Imaginary secret signals are probably my
Bachelorette
JoJo Fletcher
favorite. I also love it when they turn on
each other, like when Joe [Bailey] got
dumped by Kaitlyn [Bristowe], the Bachelorette with the nose ring. He’d just been
telling her that he loved her, then she
breaks up with him and suddenly he
couldn’t be within 10 feet of her. He looked
like he wanted to hurt someone real bad.
Jenny and I usually plan our travel
schedules around watching the show.
One time we had to take an evening flight
and we were going to miss it. I got the
airport lounge in Chicago to tune all the
TVs to ABC. If I’m shooting Blue Bloods on
a Monday night and it’s getting late, I’ll
start making declarations to the crew
that it’s time to leave.
I predict all the guys are going to go
bananas for JoJo—they always do, since
they’re locked away in a house all day.
She’s like a modern-day all-American girl:
a little tough but still girly, and she seems
good at being a friend too. We’ll see how
it goes. The Bachelors and Bachelorettes
who are serious about finding love tend
to choose the nice, good person, and the
ones who are less serious tend to choose
the arm candy. My advice to her would be
more drama, less makin’ out. It’s hard
to root for someone when they make out
with everybody. You gotta have some
limits. I don’t know what JoJo’s real
goals are, but it will be fun to find out.

Good Guy, Bad Luck
DAYS OF OUR LIVES Weekdays, NBC
HOW CAN A soap opera character this damn handsome be
such a loser at love? Galen Gering joined Days of Our Lives in
2008 as crime stopper Rafe Hernandez and since then has had
one romantic disaster after another. On Monday, May 23, Rafe
will spot his newest sweetheart, Hope Brady (Kristian Alfonso),
sharing a kiss with her husband, Aiden (Daniel Cosgrove), who
was supposedly killed on their wedding night last year. Gering
gave us his sob story.
Rafe’s a hero and a heartthrob with a good job and charm
to spare, plus he loves his mama. Why can’t this great
catch catch a break? Life sucks for
Rafe. But you gotta root for the guy,
right? He keeps getting beaten
down but gets back up and always tries to do the right thing.
That wasn’t very interesting to me—let’s face it, it’s always
more fun to play the bad guy—but lately I’m seeing how a good
guy like Rafe really resonates with the audience. I kind of dig
him now.
What’s his game plan to win Hope? Now that we know Aiden
didn’t die but was kidnapped by the evil DiMera family, how can
Rafe not give Aiden and Hope a chance to get back together
and see where things stand?
So he’ll just roll over and play dead? This is pretty messy.
While Aiden was gone, his son raped Hope’s daughter, so this
may not work out after all. Rafe will stay patient. He’s like, “Do
what you gotta do, Hope. I’m here. I love you.” In a way, he feels
for Aiden. Don’t forget, Rafe was also tortured by the DiMeras.
Yeah, like the time they hired a hit man to cut off his tallywacker. That was not nice. It was also pretty weird. But, hey,
when I was on Passions, we had a monster that looked like a
giant penis that attacked the town and squirted everybody. I
also had a love story
with an orangutan.
By comparison, this
stuff on Days ain’t
so crazy!

intense worlds. He kicks off Season 4 by training with NASA astronauts and experiencing weightlessness on the Vomit Comet. “There are mind-boggling things happening in space exploration—from plans to build a colony on Mars to mining asteroids for
minerals we may not have on Earth,” Spurlock says. “It’s like being back in the 1960s.
There is vision and passion and people with big dreams.” Alas, his episode on household
toxins is a big nightmare. Says Spurlock: “When you learn about the deadly chemicals in
our cleaning supplies, clothing and furniture, you might not want to stay home.”

I
spent my 18th birthday in front of the
TV—not (just) because I’m a TV nerd,
but because it was the final night of
Roots’ original run on ABC. Everyone I
knew was watching, spellbound. No one
had seen anything like it: a new form of epic
TV wedded to the explosive topic of slavery
and African-American heritage.
Kunta Kinte, Fiddler, Kizzy, Chicken George:
Their tragedies and triumphs became part of
a national conversation about race that’s still
relevant. Just this month, in the season finale
of WGN America’s runaway-slave drama
Underground, its heroine declared, “If we
don’t remember our stories, who will?”
In retelling Roots’ story (see page 24 for
more), History no longer has novelty, or as
captive a TV audience, to compel a Super
Bowl–size tune-in. Icons rarely blaze as
brightly the second time around. Which
doesn’t mean that it’s any less emotionally
compelling an experience to relive this grueling and inspiring narrative in a slickly streamlined and impeccably cast reinterpretation.
As in the original, there are broad melodramatic and sentimental strokes befitting a
historical potboiler, but there’s no denying
the surge of defiant pride each time a new
birth signals a connection to the struggle for
survival and identity of Kunta Kinte (the
forceful Malachi Kirby), a warrior sold into
slavery who never lost the thirst for freedom.
Though bloodily beaten to accept the
slave name “Toby,” he passes down to successive generations the mantra, “Your name
is your spirit, your name is your shield.”
In that regard, reintroducing Roots to a
nation that has seen its first black president
renders it less a museum piece than a vivid
revival of a classic TV property that deserves
to be retold. There’s no question that Kirby’s
bold Kunta, Forest Whitaker’s sensitive portrayal of wise Fiddler, Anika Noni Rose’s proud
Kizzy and Regé-Jean Page’s sensationally
charismatic Chicken George breathe new life
into these indelible characters.
It was probably a wise move to downplay
the authorship of Alex Haley, who’s heard but
not seen until the very end in a cameo by
Laurence Fishburne, who explains, “The truth
can never be known—it can only be told in a
story.” And what a story.

nter the chapel of All Saints Congregational at your
own risk. This small-town Texas church’s scruffy
and lackadaisical pastor, Jesse Cutler (the appealingly sardonic Dominic Cooper), has just been possessed by a spirit that seems other than holy. Jesse
now has the power to make unruly locals do his bidding, but
after enduring four episodes of this oddball hodgepodge of
cartoonish violence and supernatural shenanigans, I’m not
sure even the real J.C. could get me to keep watching.
If there’s any gospel truth Preacher cleaves to, it’s that selfindulgence may be the greatest blasphemy of all.
High marks, though, for the show’s visual style, reflecting its
cult graphic-comic source material, and the ability to stage
garishly gruesome set pieces, including a chainsaw fight amid
the pews between a funky Irish vampire (Joe Gilgun) and two
resilient rogue angels (Tom Brooke and Anatol Yusef).
Given the wobbly tone, straddling camp and extreme action, it’s hard to tell where this mayhem is headed—although
there’s a suggestion that a road trip may be in the cards. Let’s
hope it comes soon, because after the first few Sundays, this
Preacher just seems to be spinning his bloody wheels.
e’re always looking to sample something
new, so applaud Feed the Beast for trying to
invent a fresh genre: food noir. A shame the
ingredients of this mopey melodrama,
about two losers chasing a dream of opening a swank restaurant in the gritty Bronx, taste so stale.
Start with David Schwimmer’s incessantly doleful countenance as Tommy, a widower living with his son (who hasn’t
spoken since witnessing mommy’s death) in an abandoned
piano factory that would have housed the couple’s dream
eatery. Tommy drowns his sorrows in fine wines, while his best
bud, Dion (Jim Sturgess), a cocky ex-con who’s a whiz in the
kitchen, is a coke fiend in hock to clichéd mobsters—one of
whom has a thing for pulling teeth, among other mutilations.
The series only truly comes alive when Dion is concocting
one of his sumptuous meals in a fiery frenzy of inspiration. We
might be tempted to buy the cookbook, but there’s not much
else that’s appetizing in Beast’s glum playbook. ★★✩✩✩

RAGING AGAINST THE fading embers of a career and life on the stage, Anthony

filmed version of Ronald Harwood’s touching play (see page 36 for more), Hopkins
fumes and whimpers, lapsing in and out of lucidity in the company of Norman, his
devoted backstage dresser, played to the fussy and gossipy hilt by Ian McKellen.
Equal parts handservant, nurse and confidant, Norman helps Sir prepare for his
227th transformation into King Lear, a role echoing Sir’s own blustery panic and possible dementia, which is causing the rest of their WWII-era theatrical troupe considerable distress. Unavoidably stagey in director Richard Eyre’s intimate adaptation, this
tour de force is an ode to the actor’s art and the sacrifice it entails. ★★★★✩

Mr. Cowell sharpens up his barbs as he joins
the judges on TV’s biggest talent show

Howie Mandel,
Mel B., Cowell
and Heidi Klum
with host
Nick Cannon
Simon!
AMERICA’S GOT
TALENT, Season
premiere Tuesday,
May 31, 8/7c, NBC
IMON COWELL IS LATE. It’s
an unseasonably warm Sunday in March and, outside the
Pasadena Civic Auditorium,
hundreds of America’s Got
Talent fans have been waiting
for hours to catch a glimpse
of the show’s newest judge.
Members of a marching band put down their
instruments and sit in the shade as an hour
passes beyond the scheduled 2pm arrival
time, while the folks lining the red carpet leading into the theater use the American flags distributed by members of the production team
to shield their faces from the sun.
“We’re usually waiting two hours for him.
He plays the boss card,” says judge and supermodel Heidi Klum, referring to Cowell’s
other role as cocreator and executive producer
of the Got Talent worldwide franchise. “We
call him ‘boss man’ around here. Like, ‘Boss
man has arrived!’ ”
On this particular day, boss man has arrived
in style, driving a shiny red convertible. He
stops to pick up Klum and the other members
of the panel, comedian Howie Mandel and former Spice Girl Mel B. The marching band leads
the quartet to the foot of the red carpet with a
rousing rendition of Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the
U.S.A.” The judges make their way to the theater’s entrance, stopping to sign the occasional
autograph or snap a quick selfie with screaming onlookers. Host Nick Cannon sticks his
head out of a second-story window to coax
them into the building. “Hurry up!” he
screams. “We’ve got a show to do!”
If there’s anyone who knows how to put on
a show, it’s Cowell. The 56-year-old Brit burst
onto the American pop culture landscape in
2002 as an acerbic record executive judging
wannabe superstars on Fox’s American Idol.
Cowell’s star rose quicker than most contestants’, and he soon dominated the headlines
thanks to his honest, blunt and sometimes
downright rude comments. In 2010, Cowell left
American Idol to launch a U.S. version of his
singing competition series The X Factor, which
was already a smash in the U.K. But the success
did not translate across the pond, and the show
spent three seasons struggling to find an audience before Fox pulled the plug.

“Sometimes when I watch those American
Idol clips, I do actually think I was just miserable!” Cowell says over tea in the tranquil backyard of his luxurious Beverly Hills estate. “I felt
I was almost becoming a parody of myself, and
it was embarrassing. Now I find the bad acts
just funny. I’m still the same person, but you’ll
see me liking a lot more people.”
And NBC likes the prospect of having Cowell in front of the camera as America’s Got Talent enters its second decade. When Howard
Stern announced he would be leaving the dais
following Season 10, executives jumped at the
chance to finally feature Cowell on the variety
show where he had behind-the-scenes input
but was prohibited from making on-air appearances due to his preexisting contracts
with Fox. “AGT is the show he always wanted
to be on,” says Paul Telegdy, NBC’s president
of alternative and late-night programming.
“He loves variety, animals and the absurd.
He’s a 21st-century entertainment impresario
and a bit of a P.T. Barnum.”
JUDGING SIMON
Back in the Pasadena Civic Auditorium, the
ringleader has settled into his seat and the audition circus begins. The first act, a singer from
Brooklyn, walks to center stage wearing all
white and holding a white guitar. She strums
acoustic melodies while video images are projected onto the blank canvas of her instrument.
Her performance ends with cheers from the
TRAE PATTON/NBC (3)
masses, but the feeling in the room quickly
shifts once Cowell opens his mouth. “Sometimes when I get a massage, they play music
like that,” he says. “It was really boring.” A
chorus of boos rains down from the rafters.
With a massive grin on his face, Cowell
soaks in the familiar sound from the

are on their feet booing, and it makes me
laugh. They always think I’m the mean one,
and trust me, out of you lot [watching the
show], I’m the nice one here.”
Cowell may have a long-standing reputation
of being the “Mr. Nasty” judge, but his tablemates admit they didn’t know what to expect
from their new coworker. “You hear all these
different things through the grapevine like how

But he gets us
in trouble
—HOWIE MANDEL
Simon is so mean to the
contestants and to all
the other judges, but
that’s really not the
case,” Klum says. “I was
very happily surprised.”
“The biggest surprise
is we are laughing more
than we have ever
laughed before,” Mandel
says. “Simon has a very
dry sense of humor and
sees the irony in silliness—and we get a lot of
silliness on the show.
He’s tough and hysterical, but he gets us in trouble a little bit.” Case in
point: During one round
of auditions, Cowell distributed a chewy candy to
the others and told them
to pop it in their mouths
when the act was finished. “You couldn’t understand a word we were saying and we went into a
fit of laughter,” Mel B. says. “We definitely get into
naughtiness both on and off camera.”
Cowell’s chemistry with all three judges is
undeniable, but he has a particularly infectious
connection with Klum, who occupies the seat
directly to his right. The bickering and bantering between the two echo Cowell’s interactions
with Paula Abdul during the early days of
American Idol. “Sometimes he will be talking
when I’m talking and I have to nudge him under the desk. I don’t take any s--t from him,”
Klum says. “I’m just really hoping he lets me do
a makeover on him. He needs it, and a lot of
people would appreciate that. He has to get out
of the bell-bottoms.”
What Cowell may lack in fashion sense, he
makes up for in his ability to find superstars.
During his TV tenure in America and the U.K.,
Cowell has produced some of the most successful music acts in history, most notably boy band
One Direction (see sidebar). The winners of
America’s Got Talent have ranged from magi20

Host Cannon joins hip-hop group House of
Lewis as they face the judges
cians and ventriloquists to a dance troupe and
even a group of jump-roping dogs, but Cowell
believes the show is a viable platform to find the
next big vocalist. “I was very disappointed with
the music in the past,” Cowell admits. “But
across the first few episodes, we have—thank
God—attracted some good singers. You only
need one per year, but we want and need singers, and that is the main difference I’m going to
make on the show.”
ACTING UP
As the auditions continue in Pasadena, a
14-year-old vocalist brings the house down
with her cover of the Rolling Stones classic
“Wild Horses,” eliciting excitement and enthusiasm from Cowell. “When you’ve got it,
you’ve got it,” he says after she receives a
standing ovation. “I have a feeling about
you, and we may have discovered a star in
this moment.”
SIMON’S SUCCESS
STORIES
Over the last decade, Simon
Cowell has discovered and
developed some of the music
industry’s big stars via his competition shows. Here’s a look at
his greatest hits.
Leona Lewis Winner,
The X Factor (U.K.), 2006
The struggling musician was 21 when she auditioned
and became an instant favorite of Cowell’s, who
mentored her on the show. Following her victory, Lewis
signed a one-million-pound recording contract with
his label. Her first album, Spirit, debuted at No. 1
in nine countries.
LEFT: TRAE PATTON/NBC. RIGHT: KEVIN WINTER/GETTYIMAGES
Susan Boyle Runner-up,
Britain’s Got Talent, 2009
The Scottish singer captured viewers’ hearts and
became an internet sensation with her rendition of
“I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables. Her 2009
debut album broke the U.K. record for bestselling
album in its first week.
This day of auditions concludes with performances by an Arkansas gospel choir and a
group of teenagers practicing “sport karate.”
Other notable acts vying for the $1 million
grand prize that piqued the judges’ interests include a 6-year-old comedian, a young opera
singer and a dance crew choreographed by
dozens of flying drones. “We want to see something we’ve never seen before,” Mandel says.
“There are no rules, and that’s why this show
can go on forever.”
While America’s Got Talent shows no sign
of slowing down, Cowell the judge is currently
only signed on for this season (his busy schedule also includes spots on the Britain’s Got
Talent and U.K. X Factor panels). But as long
as the acts are strong and the chemistry on
camera continues, Cowell is never saying
never to making AGT a full-time gig. “I wasn’t
sure what coming over here and doing this
show would be like, and the first couple of days
I asked myself, ‘Is this a good idea?’ ” Cowell
says. “Then, after the third or fourth day, this
was a great idea. It’s been so much fun.”
One Direction
One Direction Third place,
The X Factor (U.K.), 2010
Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson
and Harry Styles all auditioned as solo performers,
but Cowell saw chemistry and grouped the boys
together. The result was nothing short of world
domination, with their first four albums debuting
at No. 1 in the U.S.
Fifth Harmony Third place,
The X Factor (U.S.), 2012
Cowell hoped to re-create that One Direction magic
with Ally Brooke, Normani Kordei, Lauren Jauregui,
Camila Cabello and Dinah Jane, who were put together after they auditioned individually. The group
has released two albums and sold over 5.5 million
digital singles. —RM

Behind the scenes of the
gripping two-part Law &
Order: Special Victims Unit
season finale (with Brad
Garrett as a baddie!)
BY ILEANE RUDOLPH
LAW & ORDER:
SPECIAL VICTIMS
UNIT, Season
finale Wednesday,
May 25, NBC
22
THE CAST OF Law & Order: SVU is filming the
penultimate episode of their 17th season on a
brisk spring day on the production’s squadroom set in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood and, true to form, there’s some disorder
within their midst.
The detectives of NYPD’s sex-crimes unit
are gathered along with ADA Rafael Barba
(Raúl Esparza) to coordinate a strategy to
bring down Gary Munson (guest star Brad
Garrett), a corrupt corrections officer with
choice connections who sexually abuses his
charges both in and out of jail.
Everyone involved is so focused on the
scene that no one notices when Ice T’s Fin
mistakenly says “rape” instead of the scripted
“route.” When he mock-whispers to Peter
Scanavino’s Detective Sonny Carisi, “I just
said ‘rape,’ ” the group erupts in laughter. For
the next few takes afterward, they can’t get
through more than a couple of lines without
a flub. Mariska Hargitay—the show’s tireless
| TV GUIDE MAGAZINE
heroine, Lt. Olivia Benson—then springs into
action: “Come on, guys, let’s get this done
right. We can do this!”
It’s not, of course, that the actors think rape
is funny. They are each dedicated to using this
show as a vehicle to shine the light on crimes
of a sexual nature. “We laugh a lot here,” says
Esparza, “to hold the subject matter at a certain distance or we can’t do our job.”
This is the first L&O appearance for Garrett, and by far the most villainous character
the Everybody Loves Raymond vet has played.
“There’s not much humor here, but it’s fun to
reinvent yourself a little bit. Living in his skin
has been interesting. You have to go to a deep,
dark place and then amp it up,” Garrett says in
a dressing room just big enough to accommodate his 6-foot-8 frame.
In one scene, Andy Karl’s Sergeant Dodds
has the dubious pleasure of pushing around
Garrett’s vile perp. “He’s an unmovable statue,”
Ice T says. “He only lets us move him.”
MICHAEL PARMELEE/NBC (2)
Hargitay and
Scanavino
Executive producer Julie Martin says actors
are often hesitant to guest star on the hit
drama. “They don’t want to come on to play a
pedophile or a rapist. But in Brad’s first conversation with [departing executive producer]
Warren Leight, he said he was willing to go
very dark.” Indeed. “Brad is fun and light, so
all of us were speechless at the read-through,”
Hargitay says. “His performance was dark,
scary and creepy.”
The week’s case is “about the abuse of
power,” Ice T says. “Munson has power over
these females in jail, and when they get out,
they believe he can reach them anywhere.”
Barba and the unit know that Munson is a bad
apple, but his fellow COs, who run a fiefdom in
the city’s jails, have powerful allies. They protect their own, and the victims won’t testify.
Funny and relaxed despite having hurt his
back on set, Garrett says he finds the vibe
friendly. “Mariska is adored and treats everyone wonderfully,” says the actor, recently seen
on FX’s Fargo. Her castmates unreservedly
agree. “Mariska always strives to be in a good
mood,” Scanavino says. “I’ve done a scene with
her at 4am and she’s willing to work until we
get it right. It sets the tone, because if she’s not
being a prima donna, then nobody will.”
Ice T does his bit to lighten the mood as
well. “Ice doesn’t speak much,” Esparza says,
“but when he does, he either makes you laugh
or offers nuggets of philosophy that you want
to immediately write down.”
Ice T admits SVU has changed his view of
people: “I never knew how many weirdos were
out there.” But the thanks he gets from women
he meets makes it worthwhile. He’s pleased
that SVU will dig into Fin’s backstory next season and has a goal in mind: “I want to do 21
years to beat Gunsmoke’s record as longestrunning primetime [dramatic] TV show!”
With a consistently loyal audience, SVU
could run as long as Hargitay wants. “There
are days when I think, ‘Yes, definitely,’ and
others when living in so much darkness gets to
my soul,” the actress says. Her passion for the
show and her charity, Joyful Heart Foundation—which helps survivors of sexual assault
and child abuse—keeps her on board. As do
new threads on SVU, including her surprising
romance with her former Internal Affairs foe
Ed Tucker (Robert John Burke). “There’s great
chemistry,” says Hargitay, “and I find his
strength and gravitas akin to that of the irreplaceable Chris Meloni,” who played Benson’s
partner Elliot Stabler for 12 seasons.
But since this is SVU, the brightness turns to
the dark side, and the finale promises “something bad. It was such a page-turner, so emotional that I cried when I read it,” Hargitay says.
“Someone near Olivia will be in jeopardy and
that will cause intense self-doubt.” Not only is
it “an incredible and painful cliffhanger,” the
Emmy winner vows, but “it will truly inform the
entire next year. Expect a huge shift.”

Revisited
A star-filled cast assembled to re-create the
legendary miniseries that dramatized the
harrowing realities of slavery in America
LEFT: CASEY CRAFFORD/A&E. RIGHT: ABC PHOTO ARCHIVES
BY ILEANE RUDOLPH
“THERE WAS AN America before Roots; there was an America after Roots. They were not
the same country.” —LeVar Burton
When producer Mark Wolper told Burton that he
planned to remake ABC’s 1977 groundbreaking miniseries,
the actor, whose image as the chained Mandinka captive
Kunta Kinte has become iconic, asked, “Why?”
After all, the original was an unqualified success. Millions of Americans had tuned in to Roots—based on the
Pulitzer Prize–winning novel by Alex Haley—which ran for
12 hours on eight consecutive nights. It was an astonishing result for a show about several generations of an
African-American family moving from bondage to freedom. (Haley claimed it was his own family’s story, but
later admitted that the book mixed fact and fiction.)
With 100 million viewers, the finale still ranks as the

Generations in 1979 and the TV movies Roots: The Gift and Queen, not to mention a batch of
babies named LeVar, Kunta and Kinte.
Most significantly, the series engendered a national converROOTS,

sation about the legacy of slavery. Wolper, whose father, David,
Monday, May 30, 9/8c,
was Roots’ executive producer and owned the rights, thanks his
History, A&E
teenage son for motivating him to reinvent Haley’s story. “After

he watched the miniseries, my son said, ‘Dad, I understand it’s important, but like your music, it doesn’t
speak to me.’ That’s when I decided to translate it
into today’s television vocabulary,” says Wolper, who
found a producing partner with History. (The network, along with sister channels A&E and Lifetime,
will air the new Roots over four consecutive nights.)
The time also seems right with a renewed interest
in America’s difficult racial history because of films
like 12 Years a Slave and the WGN America series Underground. “That focus doesn’t happen accidentally,”
Wolper believes. “It’s a result of the reaction we have
to things that are happening in the world.”
Those who have seen the 1977 miniseries will recognize much of the story in the updated version. “Using
Haley’s book as the spine, we don’t change his characters’ identities, but we do change or update the
history that surrounds them,” Wolper explains. Much
of Haley’s depictions of 18th-century Africa and the
Middle Passage (the deadly ocean voyages that transported African slaves to the Americas) have been
debunked since the original aired. For example,
Kinte’s Gambian hometown, Juffure, was not a mudhut village but a major trading port where slaves were
sold and the Mandinka culture was rich and powerful. (Unlike the original, which filmed the Juffure
scenes near Savannah, Georgia, this time around, the
Gambian storyline was filmed in South Africa. The
rest of the miniseries was shot in Louisiana.)
Burton’s resistance quickly faded once he heard
Wolper’s plan for Roots 2.0. “Though I’m very protective of the original,” he admits, “I was convinced that
there was a need for a whole new generation of people to be familiar with this story.” He not only gave his
seal of approval but joined the Roots team as a co–
executive producer.
Four decades ago, fearful that white viewers
wouldn’t tune in, ABC pumped up white roles and
featured a host of popular TV stars of the time, including Edward Asner, Sandy Duncan, George Hamilton and Lorne Greene. NFL superstar O.J. Simpson
was brought into play a Juffure warrior.
History’s remake has a similarly recognizable cast.
Matthew Goode, Jonathan Rhys Meyers and James
Purefoy play slave owners, and Forest Whitaker is
Fiddler, the enslaved musician who helps Kinte survive (a role that earned Louis Gossett Jr. an Emmy in
the original). Anna Paquin and Mekhi Phifer play new
characters, a Southern belle and her coachman, who
share a big secret. Laurence Fishburne shows up in
the final episode as Haley.
Mark Wolper wanted an unknown (as Burton was in
1977) for Kunta Kinte. “We were looking for an actor
who had the pride and strength of the Mandinka culture,” he says. “Someone less naive” than Burton’s
portrayal. Six months and hundreds of auditions in
Africa, Europe and the U.S. led to 26-year-old Malachi
Kirby, a Brit who had never done American TV.

His casting could only be called karma. “When I was
growing up in South London,” says Kirby, whose parents are Jamaican, “kids would call me Kunta Kinte
because they thought I looked African. It was a derogatory name. It was only later, after I learned who Kunta
Kinte was, that I really embraced the name.”
Portraying a West African warrior posed some
challenges. Kirby had to learn to speak credible
Mandinka and skillfully ride a horse bareback. But the
most important training, he says, was “learning
about the culture, its religion and traditions. The
best part of playing Kunta Kinte was that he never
became a slave, even though he was enslaved, and
holding on to his culture is what kept him going.”
Tony winner Anika Noni Rose plays Kinte’s strongwilled daughter, Kizzy, as an adult (Leslie Uggams had
the role in the original), whose spirit is never broken
despite being sold away from her family and continuously raped by her “master,” Tom Lea (Rhys Meyers),
a hardscrabble farmer. Unlike Kirby, Rose saw Roots
as a child. “My parents let me know that it was an
aspect of our history that we like to pretend didn’t
happen, but on Roots, it was in our face, ugly, nasty,
but true and ours. When I read the script, I knew that
Kizzy was somebody who takes her father’s legacy
and makes sure it lives. I felt a real attraction to her.”
Kizzy gives birth to Lea’s son, known as Chicken
George for his skill with fighting birds. “What’s

amazing is that she is able to love this child and raise

discussed out of shame and guilt, but it’s evident in [the
varying skin tones of] many black Americans.”
Another young Londoner, Rege-Jean Page, was cast as
the flamboyant Chicken George (played by Ben Vereen

a black Zimbabwean mother and white English father.

country, I became aware before I was 5 of my racial identity,” he says. “I can personally relate to struggling to
form your own identity when you belong to two worlds.
Of course, in Chicken George’s case, his father is also
his owner and the rapist of his mother. That is not an
easy relationship.”
Each actor admits to a special responsibility being
part of this new version of the landmark series. “My
hope,” Kirby sums up, “is that people receive it with understanding, with humility and with a sense of love and
forgiveness of the things that have happened in the
past. But also use it to be empowered.”
here was only one issue that LeVar
Burton had with the seminal role that
made him famous four decades ago. “I
begged the producers, Stan Margulies and
David Wolper, to let me play Kunta Kinte
through old age,” he says with a laugh. “They
had a vision that Kunta grew into a big strapping man, however, and they cast John Amos.
I had a difficult time letting go.”
This time is different. “It was easy for me
to turn the role over to Malachi Kirby and say,
‘This is yours now—run with it.’ As soon as I
saw his screen test, I opened my heart to him.
I feel like I’ve been carrying the burden of this
international symbol for freedom virtually by
myself for 40 years,” he says, “and I finally
know that I’m not alone anymore, that he and
I share this absolutely unique experience.”
Though Burton, a triple threat actordirector-producer, has gone on to other iconic
series, including Star Trek: The Next Generation
and the long-running children’s show Reading
Rainbow (now available as an app), the 59-yearold has what he calls “a spiritual” connection
with his first work. “My function as a producer
is to stand in for Alex Haley [who passed away
in 1992], for the ancestors and all of those who
were in the original,” he says. (We’ll catch a
glimpse of Burton in the remake, though the
specific role is under wraps.)
What is most exciting for the former Roots
star, however, is that his 21-year-old daughter,
Michaela, will finally view the entire miniseries. “She’s only seen the first two hours
of the original,” he reports. “She stopped as
soon as Kunta got captured because she
didn’t want to see her father subjected to
brutality. Now that Malachi is playing Kunta,
she’s eager to see it! So I’m going to sit down
and watch this with my family and hope that
others will too and find value in sharing this
story with the next generation.” —IR

TRUE
Bloodlin
The family that slays together stays together when Netflix’s dysfunctional
Rayburn clan returns for Season 2 BY AUBRY D’ARMINIO
BLOODLINE,
Season premiere
Friday, May 27,
Netflix
B
loodline’s John Rayburn (Kyle Chandler)
is really angry. Like take-a-bat-andplay-piñata-with-your-brother’s-truck
angry. His older sibling, Danny (Ben Mendelsohn), has just admitted to another dastardly
deed that could threaten the reputation of
their prominent South Florida family—
not to mention John’s bid for county sheriff. And that’s something he can’t abide.
John is mad enough to kill Danny—except
he already did last season and persuaded his
sister Meg (Linda Cardellini) and brother Kevin
(Norbert Leo Butz) to help him cover it up.

Seems you just can’t keep this bad man
down: The Rayburn black sheep is dead but
definitely not forgotten in Bloodline’s second
season. Through a feat of semi-modern technology (we won’t spoil it for you), he’s found a
way to terrorize his family from beyond his
watery grave. (Mendelsohn appears in
flashbacks.) Not that Danny really needed
to make the effort: The Rayburn children
are already buckling under the pressure
and shame of their actions. Lawyer Meg, alone
in New York City, is a workaholic alcoholic.
Kevin is losing his business—and his mind—
thanks to cocaine. John struggles to protect
them, all while jeopardizing the police investigation into Danny’s death and running for
elected office. He’s also got to keep watch on
their mother, Sally (Sissy Spacek), who has
taken it upon herself to find out what her
kids are hiding about Danny’s murder. “The
Rayburns may be free of the negativity Danny
brought when he was alive,” executive producer Glenn Kessler says, “but now they’re
totally haunted by his ghost and the cover-up
surrounding how he died.”
“Last year was about what happened to
Danny,” Chandler hints. “This season is about
the effect it has on his siblings. When they
don’t have Danny to blame everything on,
they turn on each other.”
If that weren’t complicated enough,
there’s Danny’s son, Nolan (Owen Teague),
who the Rayburns didn’t know existed until
he showed up at John’s dinner table in the
Season 1 finale. Nolan has brought with him
more surprises about his father’s old life in
Miami, as well as information about the days
following Danny’s death that John would
rather stay secret. And he’s got backup: his
mother and Danny’s ex, Evangeline (Andrea
Riseborough), their former comrade in
crime Ozzy (John Leguizamo) and the private
SAEED ADYANI/NETFLIX (3)
ne
detective working for Sally, Lenny Potts
(Frank Hoyt Taylor).
“Danny’s past is starting to float to the surface in a way that it never has before,” Kessler
says. “And the Rayburn siblings must deal
with Ozzy and Evangeline, who are real
threats to the secrets they want to keep.”
Especially Ozzy. “Ozzy’s a very charming,
kind, sweet fella,” Chandler explains. “But he’s
out for no good. And he’s got his compatriot in
the form of Evangeline. The two of them are
just electric.” Also in the mix: the drug runner
John hopes to frame for Danny’s murder,
Wayne Lowry (Glenn Morshower), and his
finger-snipping boss (Yul Vazquez).
With this intense upheaval comes a lot of
emotion. “It was a tough shoot,” remembers
Butz. “Every scene involves very, very high
stakes. And we were constantly being asked to
play different variations on extreme trauma,
anxiety and grief. It was quite draining.”
Cardellini, who, like Meg, got to escape the
Florida Keys set for a bit to film in New York,
wasn’t immune to those ups and downs. “I
remember being in a cab and thinking how
exciting and overwhelming all of the noise and
smells of the big city would be for Meg and how
she feels the move will change her, how she’ll
be a different person,” Cardellini says. “But her
duties to her family are never quite over.”
In the end, will the Rayburns be able to
stand the heat? The actors did—with a little
help, at least. “We started shooting in Florida in
September, when it is still really hot,” Butz says.
“It didn’t dip below 80 degrees until well into
December. All that humidity and sweat [you
see on screen] was organic. Very rarely did hair
and makeup have to come spritz fake sweat on
us. Mostly, they were trying to keep us dry so
we didn’t short out our microphones.”

Maya Rudolph and Martin Short talk up their new NYC-based
variety show’s ace guests (Paul Rudd! Larry David!) and why
their unique chemistry cannot be denied BY DAMIAN HOLBROOK
MAYA & MARTY, Series premiere Tuesday, May 31, 10/9c, NBC
L
IKE MANY A great thing, it all began with
Beyoncé. When Maya Rudolph once again
channeled Queen Bey alongside fellow Saturday Night Live alum Martin Short (playing himself)
for a screamingly funny bit during SNL’s 40th anniversary special last year, the pairing of two madcap
comedy forces wasn’t just inspired, it was inspiring.
“I don’t know if this is apocryphal,” Short recalls,
“but someone told me that [NBC Chairman] Bob
Greenblatt turned to Lorne Michaels during the skit
and said, ‘Well, that’s a show we should be doing.’ ” In
their new six-episode NBC series Maya & Marty, the
headliners are out to create a partially live combo
platter of celebrity guest stars, sketches and musical
performances for an updated take on the variety
show…with a few surprises in store.
When did Maya & Marty take shape?
Martin Short: It seems like it was about a week
after the 40th anniversary show. It was that close.
Maya Rudolph: I always wanted to do this after SNL,
and the more I told people, the more they said, “Oh, I
don’t know.” I think people have a stigma about the
word variety. They think it’s this old-fashioned thing,
not realizing that they are enjoying variety on TV
right now.
You even did a variety special in 2014…
Rudolph: And it was so fun. I wanted to do something like that again and was looking for a way to do
it right; then Lorne said, “I think you should do it with
Marty.” I was like, “Oh, I’d be honored if he came on
the show,” and Lorne went, “No…together.”
What did you guys think of that?
Short: My first reaction was if we did it in New York,
I’d be interested. There is something about doing a
show in L.A.; you always feel like you’re in Burbank
[studios]. You can just feel the New York energy, and
we’re doing it at 30 Rock, right next to Jimmy Fallon’s
show. There is an infrastructure that Lorne has in
that building that things just get done correctly.
Rudolph: Everything [about] Marty is part of my
comic genetic makeup. It’s pretty amazing to be
working with someone who has completely influenced me. And since we both come from that SNL
family tree, we share a universal language.
You’re taping much of the show in front of a live
audience. Are either of you worried about cracking up during skits together?
Rudolph: In the best possible sense. I think it’s more
about knowing that it will be really fun to [be on
stage] together.
How would you describe your chemistry?
Short: There was this ease when we worked together
[on the SNL special]. Lorne said we had this incredible give-and-take, yet we never looked at each
other—she was just staring out at the audience as
Beyoncé. He said it was like we’d been doing this
together a long time, yet we’d never done it. We
instinctively know how to play together.
Rudolph: I have a hard time finding someone he
doesn’t have chemistry with. He’s so charming and
inviting and warm. He is such a team player.
What should we expect to see on the show?
Rudolph: It’s so top secret! If I told you, you might
have to change your identity. [Laughs] Everything is
still in the developmental stages.
Short: We’ve already done some stuff. I’ve shot
Jiminy Glick interviewing Larry David and Paul Rudd.
Maya and I play Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld in
New York. She’s pretaped something as Oprah.
I’m excited to just
try it all and see
what happens
—MAYA RUDOLPH
Rudolph: What makes it more than a funny show is
that it’s this fun environment for the great people
we know and admire to come and perform. That is
what I think people will get joy from.
Short: I think the show will [have] people around
the watercooler going, “Did you see all the people
who showed up last night?” It will be fast-paced.
But we’ll also feature a number from a hot Broadway show or present a fabulous stand-up comic.
It’s not just going to be pretaped stuff.
Is any of this scary for you?
Rudolph: In a good way. I’m excited to just try it
all and see what happens.
Short: I did 20 concerts in April—this insanely grueling month, but it was all good for me. If you’re used
to being in front of an audience, nothing is daunting.
Should we expect Beyoncé to meet Beyoncé in a
future skit?
Rudolph: You’re going to have to ask the gods. I go
wherever the wind takes me with that one. Whatever
Beyoncé wants to do is fine by me! [Laughs]

Maddie Ziegler, the 13-year-old fan favorite from Dance
Moms, will join SYTYCD as a mentor. “She’ll be like a big
sister to the kids, someone their own age they can relate
to and confide in,” Deeley says. “We really need that. I’m
so goofy and old, the younger ones look at me like I’m the
T-Rex from Night at the Museum!”

Expect lots of tough love from Lythgoe
(right) and fellow judges Jason Derulo
and Paula Abdul. “None of us will be
a Simon Cowell going, ‘You’ll never be a

says Lythgoe. “But we will be honest,
and we won’t sugarcoat. Most of these
kids already do competitions. They
know not everybody wins.”
DANCE!
TIME FOR A shake-up. So You Think You Can Dance:
The Next Generation—the 13th season of the Fox reality
hit—has dropped the age requirement and will feature
only dancers who are 8 to 13 years old. Host Cat Deeley
freaked when she heard about it.
“I had two immediate concerns: that our show would
turn pageant-y and weird, and that the talent might not
be all that great,” she says. “I didn’t want to have to tell
the audience, ‘Now be nice. Remember, little Johnny is
They’re small but mighty. “This season’s contestants
[like Gavin Morales, right] are physically awesome—
Roman gods in little packages,” Deeley says. “They know
dance is more than talent and training. They have to
be strong as athletes.” And they won’t shy away from
mature themes. “Some of the most memorable routines
on So You Think You Can Dance have been about hard
subjects like loss,” Lythgoe notes. “Many of these kids
come from broken homes or families where there are
drugs or alcohol issues. You’ll hear their stories. Like all

only 8.’ ” But, Deeley admits, “I was dead wrong. This is
the best thing to happen to our show in years.”
Executive producer and judge Nigel Lythgoe goes one
better: “Two of the young people we found are among the
best dancers in the show’s history, and one young lady
gave the finest audition I have ever seen—and I do mean
ever,” he says. “The standards are ridiculously high.”

So You Think You Can Dance returns for Season 13 with
some big—er, pint-size—twists BY MICHAEL LOGAN
“The best thing about these kids is that they dance for the pure joy of it,” says Deeley
(above). “Unlike older dancers, they’re not desperately seeking jobs. This is not the Last
Chance Saloon.” Even disasters get a rosy spin: One girl drank too much water just before
she was picked as a semifinalist and barfed on Abdul. Her explanation? “All my happiness
just came up!” Alas, when the season is over, Deeley says it’s “back to the real world of
chores and math homework and sharing a bedroom with your stinky older brother.”
Broadway musicals featuring little
stars, like Matilda and The Lion King,
set big dreams in motion for young
dancers (like Shasa Cochran, below).
“Our show has also been a huge influence on these kids,” Lythgoe says. “But
here’s what’s depressing: Most of them
weren’t even born when we hit the air!”
Open auditions were held in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, with 100
kids selected to move on to the Academy, where they’ll train with acclaimed
professionals and be whittled down to 10 finalists. “It’s like superhero dance
school,” Deeley says. “Each child is paired with a Yoda-type mentor—one
of our So You Think You Can Dance All Stars—and will go into the competition
with that mentor as their dance partner.” Ballroom dance could pose a problem. “The height difference between our little ones and the adult All Stars
can be huge,” Lythgoe says. “It’ll really put our choreographers to the test.”

SOMETHING
Wayward
THIS WAY COMES
Fox’s twisty thriller gets even more twisted in Season 2
WAYWARD
PINES,
Season premiere
Wednesday,
May 25, 9/8c, Fox
34
HERE WERE NO plans for a repeat
visit. Fox billed Wayward Pines—its
2015 supernatural series about a small
Idaho town with a slew of disturbing
secrets—as a 10-episode, close-ended
summer event. But then the show
received critical acclaim and a solid weekly audience, and the network found itself—pardon
the expression—pining for more Wayward.
“We were just thrilled with the response,”
says executive producer Blake Crouch, who
penned the Wayward Pines book trilogy, on
which Season 1 was based. Crouch met with
fellow executive producer and Oscar nominee
M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) at the
director’s Philadelphia-area home last summer to brainstorm new stories to tell in the
mysterious Wayward world. “I think we both
came out of that first day thinking maybe
we wouldn’t do this because we had to have
a very compelling reason to go forward,”
Crouch says. “But something happened during the second day, and we got fired up by this
big idea that made us want to go back.”

Last season, viewers were introduced to
the creepy town through the eyes of U.S. Secret
Service Agent Ethan Burke (Matt Dillon), who
woke up there following a car accident while
he was searching for his missing partner, Kate
Hewson (Carla Gugino). As Burke peeled back
the layers to all of the town’s eccentricities, he
learned the year was actually 4028 and that
Pines was created by Dr. David Pilcher (Toby
Jones) as a sanctuary for the last 1,000 remaining members of the human race, frozen in
hibernation chambers 2,000 years prior. (Yes,
you read that correctly.) The town was surrounded by an electrified fence in order to
keep out the bloodthirsty “abbies”—humanoid aberrations that were the result of centuries of genetic evolution. “The first season
starred [the town], and you could get away
with obscurity and opaqueness,” says Jason
Patric, who joins the cast in Season 2 as Wayward Pines’ newest resident, Dr. Theo Yedlin.
“Now the jig is up, and viewers are really going
to attach themselves to the characters as opposed to just the mystery.”

Opposite page: Patric and Davis;

Patric (The Lost Boys, Rush) was unfamiliar
with the series before he signed on for the
role, but he was up for the challenge of playing an arrogant surgeon from Boston who
gets “woken up” in Wayward Pines for a specific and critical reason. “You have a guy who
is being thrust into a world that makes him
doubt both his past and his present,” Patric
says. “He is valuable to Pines because of his
skills, but then he faces the hard question of
‘Do I want to be a leader here?’ ”
Maybe not. Theo arrives three years after
the events of Season 1, during a particularly
tumultuous time. A new regime known as the
First Generation—led by Sheriff Jason Higgins (Tom Stevens)—is ruling the citizens by
dictatorial mandates and scare tactics. With
civil unrest brewing, Theo is forced to choose
sides and ultimately finds an ally in longtime
resident and historian CJ Mitchum (Oscar
nominee Djimon Hounsou), another new
face for Season 2. “I refer to CJ as the Yoda
character in the show,” Shyamalan says with
a laugh. “He’s a really powerful character and
is at the center of how Pilcher’s whole experiment came to be.”
Although Pilcher was killed at the end of
last season by his unhinged sister (Melissa
Leo), Jones joins a number of actors from the
original 10 episodes who will return in Season 2. Leo, Gugino, Hope Davis and Empire
star Terrence Howard will all appear, mostly
in flashbacks. “Luckily for us, we always have
multiple time frames,” Shyamalan explains.
“It allows us to tell stories with both our old
and our new cast.”
Season 2 will also reveal more about the
abbies, who were initially depicted as mindless brutal beasts hell-bent on death and destruction but might actually be a highly
organized and intelligent force. “Theo has
a scientific mind, and he sees that there’s a
structure to the things they’re doing,” Patric
says. “There seems to be something more at
stake than has been presented to the people
of Wayward Pines.”
As Theo, his wife (Nimrat Kaur) and the
rest of the townspeople fight to defend themselves against the abbies and the First Generation, Shyamalan and Crouch are fighting
for the future of Wayward Pines itself. During
their summit in Philadelphia, the two producers decided they needed three seasons to
complete their vision, but they are still waiting for the official word from the network for
another go-round.
“We can see the end of this whole story,
and it’s very powerful,” Shyamalan promises.
“We don’t want to have any audience members feeling like we’re just making it up as we
go along. We’re on a ship that’s aiming toward a destination.”

Ian McKellen
and Anthony
Hopkins collide
magnificently in
The Dresser, a
nightmarish
valentine to life
in the theater
BY MICHAEL LOGAN
THE DRESSER,
Monday, May 30,
9/8c, Starz
36
| TV GUIDE MAGAZINE
JOSS BARRATT/PLAYGROUND TELEVISION UK LIMITED
“The world will
not end if you
don’t give a
great performance,” says
Hopkins (right,
with McKellen),
“but to an actor,
it sure seems
so. It will drive
you mad”
TVINSIDER.COM
| 37
In their BBC
days: Hopkins in
War and Peace
and McKellen in
David Copperfield.
“It took us forever
to work together,”
McKellen says,
“and it was one of
the most incredible experiences
of my life.”
38
HE FIRST THING you need to know
when gabbing with Ian McKellen
and Anthony Hopkins is that neither wishes to be called “Sir.” They
are certainly entitled to that grand
honor—McKellen was knighted by
Queen Elizabeth in 1991; Hopkins,
two years later—but they are
uneasy with the formality it
engenders and they sure as hell don’t want anyone
putting them on pedestals. Both of these revered
actors—who are sharing the screen for the first time
in the wickedly juicy Starz movie The Dresser—come
from simple beginnings. McKellen’s father was a lay
preacher, Hopkins was the son of a baker. And they
remain, in their minds anyway, just regular Joes.
“No actor who is to be taken seriously goes into
this profession to become rich and famous,” says
McKellen. “Tony and I remain workhorses to this day,
and proudly so. We’re in it for the craft, and now that
we’re silly old men, we’re especially in it for the joy.
Of course, the money is nice. But fame, for the most
part, is a bit of an inconvenience.”
And self-congratulation is a no-no. “We are not
here saving lives,” Hopkins notes. “I will watch Turner
Classic Movies and hear the hosts going on and on
about a film and its stars—pondering, analyzing,
dissecting, finding hidden depths and meanings. But
it’s just a f---ing movie! One must keep that in perspective. An actor’s ego is a very dangerous
and painful thing. It is the devil.”
It’s wonderfully perfect, therefore,
that these lions in winter (McKellen
is 77; Hopkins, 78) have been
brought together by The Dresser.
Based on the acclaimed 1980 play
by Ronald Harwood, it’s an
endearing yet vicious salute to the
theater at a time when art trumped
commerce and popularity was
earned the old-fashioned way—through
talent and skill. Hopkins plays a stark raving
mad actor-manager known merely as Sir,
who is bringing his ragtag productions
of Shakespeare to the English provinces during World War II. (Rare is
the performance not interrupted
by blaring sirens and Hitler’s
bombs.) McKellen is Sir’s longtime
dresser, Norman, an incorrigible
boozer and closet gay who appears
to love his boss but, when feeling
unappreciated, can turn spiteful and
| TV GUIDE MAGAZINE
manipulative. On the night The Dresser takes place, Sir
is due to perform the title role in King Lear but has
failed to show up at the theater, which leaves Norman,
Sir’s wife, Pussy (Emily Watson), and the stage manager, Madge (Sarah Lancashire), in a collective tizzy.
“For years, I have watched people try to depict life
in the theater—whether it be on film, stage or TV—
and only The Dresser gets it right,” McKellen says.
“This is the theater I recognize—the dogged
professionalism, the jealousies, the misunderstandings, the unrequited love.
In fact, it’s all so true and real it was
not at all difficult to act. I have
lived it!”
So did his costar. For a while
anyway. “I always suffered from
a very uncomfortable relationship with the theater and especially with Shakespeare,” admits
Hopkins, who was mentored into the
Royal National Theatre in 1965 by the
great Laurence Olivier. “I had trained
like crazy but the stage never felt
right to me. So I skedaddled.”
Hopkins, who would go on to win
an Academy Award for The
Silence of the Lambs, did venture
back onto the London boards to
play Lear in 1987, earning raves
from even the most hard-assed
critics. But he was dreadfully unimpressed with himself.

—IAN MCKELLEN
“I just wasn’t ready,” Hopkins says. “And,
had common sense prevailed, I should have
turned down The Dresser because my character must perform some very famous
passages from Lear.” And do them brilliantly. As the story unfolds, Sir does find his way
to the theater but is so confused he starts
putting on blackface, thinking he’s about to
star in Othello. Reminded he’s to play Lear,
Sir fears he won’t remember his lines and
senses on some psychic level that his life is
very nearly over. It’s the ultimate actor’s
nightmare, but he goes on to give an extraordinary performance as the mad king.
“When I sat down to read the script, with
Ian and our director, Richard Eyre, something very odd came over me,” Hopkins
says. “My fear of Lear was gone and I suddenly realized, ‘I can do this now! Finally, I
am old enough to understand him!’ ”
McKellen tackled Lear on stage in
2007—stirring up controversy with his
full-frontal nude scene—so he knows how
daunting the part can be. “It is the Everest of roles and can never truly be conquered,” McKellen says. “But, even if you
only get halfway up the mountain, the
view is still incredible.”
There is much poignant talk in The
Dresser about legacy and how actors like
Sir—who were rejected by the movies—live
on only in the memories of those who
catch them on stage. And when those
theatergoers are dead, there is nothing left
at all. Of course, that won’t happen to
McKellen and Hopkins, though they swear
they’d be OK if it did.
“I was in shock when I did Gandalf in the
Middle Earth films [the Lord of the Rings
and Hobbit trilogies] and realized I was
involved in something that would survive
my life,” McKellen says. “I’ve always thought
of acting as a temporary thing, and when I
see some of my old TV and film performances, I really wish that were true! I have
definitely gotten better as the years go by.”
Hopkins recalls coming to Hollywood in
1973, just as his breakout performance as
Count Pierre in the BBC-PBS series War
and Peace was dazzling the industry. “I
opened up the Los Angeles Times and realized I was the talk of the town,” he says. “I
thought to myself, ‘By God, I’ve made it!’
The next day, I went to Universal, where I
was doing a movie with Goldie Hawn. A
carpenter came up to me and said, ‘Didn’t
I see you on TV last night wearing a stovepipe hat? I switched over to football.’ ”
Hopkins lets out a raucous laugh, still
thrilled 43 years later with the divine humiliation of it all. “And that,” he says, “is what
this acting stuff is really all about. Nothing!
Nada! Like the great old poem says, ‘The
paths of glory lead but to the grave.’ ”

all season,” says

THE FLASH
Season finale, 8/7c, The CW
B
arry Allen (Grant Gustin) is in for
the race of his life, which also happens to be the title of The Flash’s
pulse-pounding Season 2 finale. And it’s
not just his speedster nemesis Zoom
(Teddy Sears) who has him running wild.
“Something extraordinary happens at
the end of the [previous] episode that is
just shocking,” Sears reveals. “It’s totally
out of left field.” It’s also part of the catalyst that throws Barry, who has endured
so much already at the hands of his
40
| TV GUIDE MAGAZINE
black-suited foe, into a mad dash to
destroy Zoom once and for all.
Barry had better hop to it: Zoom still
has that master plan to take over Earth-1
and wipe all of the alternate universes
out there off the timeline. “He wants to
lord over Barry’s planet,” Sears continues,
adding that his character—also known as
homicidal time-jumper Hunter Zolomon—
may be driven less by supernatural evil
than simple human envy. “For all of Zoom’s
obsession with Barry, I think Zolomon
sees him as the guy he could have become.
There is a jealousy there.”
The best way to settle a grudge match
between the two speed freaks? A race.
But since we’re talking about the fate of

Season finale, 8/7c, Fox
ROSEWOOD FANS HOPING for a little body
contact between the show’s titular medical
examiner, Beaumont “Rosie” Rosewood
(Morris Chestnut), and his cop partner,
Annalise Villa (Jaina Lee Ortiz), won’t be
disappointed during the procedural’s firstseason finale. The heretofore-platonic pair’s
search for an elusive killer among Miami’s
social elite requires that they get very
touchy-feely…on the dance floor. Wait, what
did you think we meant? We asked Chestnut
to explain that, and more.
Who is this slippery murderer Rosie
and Villa are chasing? The killer is part
of Miami’s upper echelon and is being protected by them, which makes the whole investigation very difficult. Every time Rosie
and Annalise follow up on a lead, someone
gives them false information, and so on—
making the killer hard to track down.
Jaina Lee Ortiz started her career as a
professional salsa dancer, and we’ve already seen Villa’s moves. How’d you keep
up? I had to learn! We learned an entire
dance sequence. It was a lot of fun. In my
opinion, it’s a very hot, sexy scene and a very
hot, sexy moment in the series. Rosewood
and Villa are out on the floor with other people, but with the two of them, it’s as if they
are the only ones there, they are so engaged
with each other.
Now that you’re done with your first season as the star of a hit show, what have
you learned? That it’s harder than I thought
it was going to be.
What was the first thing you did when you
finished filming? Because I’d been on a diet
all season, literally, the very next day I had
chicken and waffles with syrup. And a piece
of corn bread with butter slapped over it.

nna Kendrick is doing it. Jack Black is
doing it. Tracy Morgan and Paul Rudd
are too. You’re not required to wear a
scarlet bubble on your schnoz to enjoy NBC’s
second annual Red Nose Day telethon, but
why not join in the fun? (If you’d like to own
one, they’re available at your neighborhood
Walgreens for a crisp $1.)
In case you missed last year’s Red Nose
Day, expect a few hours of your favorite
actors and recording artists participating in
Saturday Night Live–esque skits and manning
the phone lines to raise money for people in
need throughout the world. (The 2015 standout? Coldplay’s Game of Thrones musical
featuring the HBO show’s cast in full croon.)
The special is a British import started by Love
Actually writer-director Richard Curtis 25
years ago as a way for actors and comedians
to give back to the community the same way
pop stars did with Live Aid. (Fun fact: James
Corden’s Late Late Show viral “Carpool Karaoke” videos originated as a Red Nose Day skit
featuring the actor with George Michael.)
“It’s April Fool’s Day with a good cause,”
describes Curtis, who was delighted to bring
his fundraiser across the pond. The first U.S.
Red Nose Day garnered $23 million, a number
he’d like to beat this year with help from
Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson, Sarah Silverman, Keegan-Michael Key, Jordan Peele, Seth
Rogen, Ellie Kemper, Rose Byrne and more.
One of the sketches the show’s creator hints
to look out for involves Rudd and Los Angeles
Clippers power forward Blake Griffin. The
theme: a similar fundraiser gone bad. “The
moment a celebrity agrees to do Red Nose
Day, they’re taking a partnership in it,” Curtis
says. “They’re doing it because they know
money can make a huge difference, and every
$5 could help feed a poor family in America.”

500 QUESTIONS
THURSDAY, MAY 26
Season premiere, 8/7c, ABC
TOP: ADAM TAYLOR/ABC. BOTTOM: MARK J. REBILAS/USA TODAY SPORTS
WHICH TRIVIA ALL-STAR—who won a record-breaking 74 consecutive
games of Jeopardy! in 2004—is returning to TV this summer as the first
contestant of the second season of the ABC quiz show 500 Questions? The
answer: Ken Jennings! The champ opens up about his quest for more
game-show glory.
What do you like about 500 Questions? A show like Jeopardy! has been a
huge hit for over 30 years, but the trend now is to decompress game shows.
You have one question, then five minutes of nervous banter with the host,
the synthesizer hits and the spotlights all change. I liked that 500 Questions
was an attempt to do another fast-paced game show with a lot of game
and a lot less filler.
What’s the biggest difference between Jeopardy! and 500 Questions?
Jeopardy! is more forgiving. If you get three questions in a row wrong, you
just suck it up and get back in the game. In 500 Questions, if you get three
answers wrong, you’re done. So the game can change literally at any time.
Do you feel pressure to live up to your Jeopardy! accomplishments?
Yeah, I do feel that a lot, and I’ve just got to let go of it because that was a
probability-pushing streak of luck that I don’t even understand. That’s just
not going to happen every time I play a quiz game.
Are people intimidated if you show up for bar trivia? [Laughs] It’s a
no-win scenario. If I win, nobody’s happy, and if I lose, it’s not great either.
I wanted to play [bar trivia while doing research] for a book, so I went into a
Boston bar with a Red Sox hat pulled over my head. Nobody recognized me!
Are there more game shows you would like to try? When I was a little
kid, I was obsessed with Richard Dawson–era Family Feud. My kids are a
little too young for all the PG-13 jokes on modern Family Feud, but apart
from the d--k jokes, it would be awesome to be on the Feud with Steve
Harvey. —Rob Moynihan

AMERICAN
NINJA
WARRIOR
TV’S OBSTACLE COURSE of awesomeness is back, and according to hosts
Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbajabiamila,
Season 8 is definitely one you are not
going to want to miss. Here are five
solid reasons for that.
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1
Season premiere 8/7c, NBC
1.
The ANW course has gotten
a major facelift. “It’s almost
entirely new!” Iseman previews. “We
always like to change things up, but
after having two athletes [successfully
complete the course] last year, we’ve really
stepped things up.” In some cases, he means
that literally: Iseman says that the iconic Warped
Wall “is now half a foot taller at 14.5 feet.”
The competitors have gotten tougher.
Gbajabiamila reports that the show’s popularity has led to athletes “building courses in their
backyards and training at Ninja gyms” around the
country in hopes of scaling Mt. Midoriyama. “We are
seeing ordinary people do extraordinary things,” he
says. “When you quit your job to train full-time for a
year, that’s when you know it just got real.”
The show will prove to be even more
inspiring to viewers. Among those hitting
the field are Michael Stanger, a Season 7 hopeful
who reduced Gbajabiamila to tears while competing
to raise awareness of a terminal genetic disorder
afflicting his wife and two daughters, as well the
WWE’s Zach Gowen. “[He] lost his leg to cancer as a
youth and hasn’t let it stop him from anything,”
Iseman praises. “He’s just one of those competitors
whose spirit will leave you asking yourself, ‘Really?
What’s my excuse?’ ”
Famous faces will be thrown in the
mix. IndyCar racers Helio Castroneves,
Tony Kanaan and Josef Newgarden are all set to
take on a specially designed course during the
Indianapolis tryouts.
You will see bodies in motion in a jawdropping new way. “You will believe a woman
can fly,” Iseman hints of the season’s biggest shocker,
while Gbajabiamila can’t wait for fans to see “a
drop-the-mic performance that may break the
internet.” —Damian Holbrook

“We’ve seen so
many more people applying [to
be on],” says

Scream
Season premiere 10/9c, ABC
h, baby! Mistresses, ABC’s unapologetically sudsy summer dramedy,
returns for Season 4, and this time
around, it’s a family affair. When we last left
the group of drama-prone L.A. pals, Karen
(Yunjin Kim), still reeling after a three-way
romance with a married couple, was pregnant; Joss (Jes Macallan) was shaking off
false murder charges; and April (Rochelle
Aytes) was falling hard for Marc (Rob Mayes),
a recovering alcoholic. Now, more than a year
has gone by and we’re seeing the fruits of
their labors. “My baby is so cute!” raves Kim
of the pint-size addition to the roster. “We
can never tell what she’s going to do!”
Motherhood isn’t the only change afoot.
The once straitlaced Karen—sporting a
freshly shorn hairdo—will publish a hit memoir about her racy relationship history. “She
becomes a well-known ‘sexpert,’ which is a
title she’s not completely comfortable with,”
Kim says. She’ll be equally wary of the feelings that she’s developing for her daughter’s
hot manny, Robert (Jerry O’Connell). Says
Kim, “She’s trying not to cross the line, but
there’s a huge attraction between them.”
While Karen is doing her best to remain
single, burgeoning PR whiz Joss is poised to
take a giant leap forward with her celeb chef
love, Harry (Brett Tucker). But “things may
not be as perfect as they appear,” Kim warns.
And single mom April will experience some
buyer’s remorse following her decision to
cohabitate with Marc. Says Kim, “He’s much
younger and not pitching in financially, and
the big question is: Can he measure up?”
We’ll find out soon enough—perhaps with
help from another new character, Harry’s
sister, Kate, arriving in Episode 2. “She’s the
missing piece. We always need that fourth
lady,” Kim says of the position that was previously held by departed cast members
Alyssa Milano (Savi) and Jennifer Esposito
(Calista). “The overall theme of our show is
friendship and helping each other to deal
with this crazy life!” —Ingela Ratledge
“I think fans will
love the baby!”

TASTEMAKERS
MASTERCHEF
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1
Season premiere, 8/7c, Fox
IF YOU CAN’T stand the heat, call in the fire
department. Gordon Ramsay’s kitchen competition series MasterChef is back for Season
7, boasting a wildly diverse assortment of
home cooks—including four firefighters, a
private investigator, a tuxedo salesman, a
frat guy, a pro poker player who’s won $9
million and Miss San Diego 2015. We got the
hot dish, Ramsay style.
Longtime judge Graham Elliot is out and
replaced with a rotating team of guest
judges, including superchefs Wolfgang
Puck, Edward Lee and Aarón Sánchez. How
will that change the show? The level of talent among today’s home cooks is so spectacular it’s scary. It’s no longer some niche thing, so
we have to raise the bar. Bringing in a variety of
fantastically experienced judges makes it an
ever tougher competition. And they don’t just
stand there taste-testing—they’re jackets off,
hands on, and they get right in there with the
home cooks. It’s a priceless education.
What’s up with all the firefighters? Your
local firehouse is often the best kitchen in
town these days and better than most fine
restaurants. It’s a reflection of what’s happening in America.
The winner gets $250,000 and a cookbook deal, though many also use this
show to try to turn pro. Do you wish you’d
had reality TV back in the day to give your
career a jump start? Not really. There’s
something to be said for climbing the ladder
steadily. The more you learn, the longer you’ll
succeed. Our show can certainly catapult you
into the food business but, if you fly too high
too fast, you’ve got a problem. We want to
teach and inspire our home cooks, not encourage them to march off and try to be a
head chef somewhere. Too much ambition
will bite you in the ass.
Aren’t the MasterChef contestants feeling a little insecure after seeing all those
phenomenal kids on MasterChef Junior?
[Laughs] They should be very nervous! Kids
have no fear. They’re like open vessels, all
ready to experience and learn, while the
adults come to us all jacked up with preconceived ideas. If you try to learn piano sideby-side with a 7-year-old, that little kid
will learn way quicker than you. It’s the
same with chefs. Let’s put it this way: If
we were to put our juniors up against the
adults, I don’t think the adults would win.

supernatural trouble. When we meet him,
he’s living as a traumatized recluse in his
hometown of Rome, West Virginia, following an otherworldly event that cost him his
wife and daughter. “It’s almost like he’s a
magnet for evil and he doesn’t know why,”
Black explains. “It’s haunted him since he
was a child. His mother was possessed and
he had the ability to save her but didn’t
know how. Since then, [this threatening
entity] has pursued him through his adulthood.” Now, whatever this force is, it’s going after more of the people around him,
which leads Kyle to team up with Reverend
Anderson (Philip Glenister)—a clergyman
with his own dark history of possession—
to exorcise his demons once and for all.
Literally and figuratively.
“This is Kyle’s journey,” says Black, who
notes that the main goal was to create
not so much an “exorcism show” but a
character drama with horrific elements.
And as Kyle attempts to figure out what
the devil is going on and how he can stop
it, don’t expect a demon-of-the-week
or jump-scares galore. “This show is not
about things popping out at you,” Black
cautions. “It’s hopefully about keeping the
audience on the edge of their seats about
what is yet to come.” —Damian Holbrook

How Well Did You Sleep Last Night?
Did you toss and turn all night? Did you wake up with a sore
neck, head ache, or was your arm asleep? Do you feel like you
need a nap even though you slept for eight hours? Just like you
I would wake up in the morning with all of those problems and
I couldn’t figure out why. Like many people who have trouble
getting a good night’s sleep, my lack of sleep was affecting the
quality of my life. I wanted to do something about my sleep
problems, but nothing that I tried worked.
Mike Lindell
Inventor & CEO
of MyPillow®
The Pillow Was the Problem
I bought every pillow on the market that promised to give
me a better night’s sleep. After trying them all, with no success
I finally decided to invent one myself. I began asking everyone
I knew what qualities they’d like to see in their “perfect pillow.”
Their responses included: “I’d like a pillow that never goes flat”
“I’d like my pillow to stay cool” and “I’d like a pillow that adjusts
to me regardless of my sleep position.” After hearing everyone
had the same problems that I did, I spent the next two years
of my life inventing MyPillow.
In the early days, Mike and his family
spent countless hours hand-making each
MyPillow. This hard work and dedication
to “doing it right” helped MyPillow become
a classic American success story.
MyPillow® to the Rescue
Flash forward eleven years and MyPillow, Mike Lindell’s
revolutionary pillow design, has helped 12 million people
improve the quality of their sleep. MyPillow has received
thousands of testimonials from customers about how
MyPillow has changed their lives.
“Until I was diagnosed with various sleep issues, I had no idea why
my sleep was so interrupted throughout the night. I watch Imus
each morning and heard endless testimonials about MyPillow.
I took his advice and ordered a MyPillow. Now I wake up rested
and ready to conquer the day ahead. Thank you for helping me
remember what it’s like to sleep like a baby!” - Jacqueline H.
Lindell has been featured on numerous talk shows,
including Fox Business News and Imus in the Morning.
Lindell and MyPillow have also appeared in feature stories
in major magazines and newspapers across the country.
MyPillow has received the coveted “Q Star Award”

CHEERS Jeers
BY DAMIAN HOLBROOK
CHEERS TO
NEW GIRL
for getting back
on track. It took
longer than
most network
comedies last,
but Jess (Zooey Deschanel) and Nick
(Jake Johnson) look like they are finally
finding their way back to each other. Unless Megan Fox signs on for next season.
In that case, we’re totally #TeamReagan.
@damianholbrook
JEERS TO DANCING
WITH THE STARS
for being a full house of fail.
Something is seriously bent
about the elimination process if Jodie Sweetin and Keo
Motsepe can get a perfect score and still be bumped off
before a certain klutzy crooner reached the end of his road.
JEERS TO
THE GOOD WIFE
for its bad ending. After
seven seasons, Alicia Florrick’s
(Julianna Margulies) final hour
included ghosts (Josh Charles’s
Will, left, with Margulies), inexplicable betrayals, too much Connor
(Matthew Morrison) and too little Eli (Alan Cumming). And
that ambiguous exit? Felt like a slap in the face.
CHEERS TO JEFF DANIELS
for returning to the Newsroom. As a guest
on Bloomberg TV’s With All Due Respect,

the other gals and wound up attacking the cameraman filming
her meltdown. Not cool. That
poor guy has it hard enough
without having to worry about
the talent going all Southernfried crazy on him.
