Quote of the Day: Spartacus’ Lucy Lawless on Sex Scenes, Nudity
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Drama, Prime Time, Cable, Gossip,
"Funnily enough, no. You’re taped up and anatomically incorrect – there’s no accidental sex happening on set, but all the same, it’s really exposing. Especially for the women. I think females are hardwired to protect that side of yourself, so that has never gotten easier. But nudity becomes easier. You just don’t notice it after a while, but sex – no. And not one actor has come in and found it a breeze."
-Spartacus: Gods of the Arena's Lucy Lawless on whether sex scenes get easier with time.

ABC may be working to bring back Charlie's Angels to the small screen, but another show from that network is now headng to the big screen.
Dynasty, the hit 80's TV show which starred Joan Collins, John Forsythe and Linda Evans, is being developed into a motion picture. Show creators Richard and Esther Shapiro and working on the script.
"The time is right. Nostalgia has always been big, but we want to take it a step further," Esther teased. "We want to go back to the beginning with these characters and use the film to trace their roots. We're taking Blake Carrington (John) back to his young manhood and when he met Alexis (Joan), and setting the movie in the Mad Men era of the 1960s. It will give us the opportunity to start fresh, without the constraints that television placed on our characters in the series."

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, CBS, News,
From bloodthirsty vampires to dangerous mafia hitmen.
Former Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar will return to the small screen with the new CBS pilot Ringer, a drama where she’ll star as a quasi-fugitive hiding out from the mob.
And if that doesn’t excite you, maybe we ought to tell you this: there’s two of her.
Gellar will play a twin who has assumed her sister’s identity, and it seems the split-screen shot of the two of them standing shoulder-to-shoulder is inevitable.

The first two episodes of Season 4 averaged 7.7 million viewers -- almost 6 million more than it did on the CW -- and set a viewership record for sitcoms on cable.
