TV Casting: Michael Nyqvist Gets Evil in ZERO HOUR, Brad Garrett Joins Comedy PARENTS, and Zach Gilford Heads to Medical Drama

We’ve got a trio of TV casting stories to share with you this evening. First up, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (the Swedish one) star Michael Nyqvist has landed the villain role in ABC’s drama pilot Zero Hour. The show comes from Prison Break scribe Paul Scheuring and centers on a skeptics magazine editor who is pulled into “one of the most compelling conspiracies in human history.” ER vet Anthony Edwards is set to play the magazine editor, and THR reports that Nyqvist will play one of the villains at the heart of a global conspiracy. He’s a mercenary who shares a special connection to the show’s protagonist.

Nyqvist has already done the “foreign star takes on American villain role” bit in Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, but Zero Hour will make his US television series debut. I’m a big fan of Edwards and the premise sounds interesting enough, so it’s safe to say I’m sold on checking out the pilot should ABC pick the show up to series. Hit the jump for casting news concerning Everybody Loves Raymond star Brad Garrett and Friday Night Lights alum Zach Gilford.

Jason Biggs, Sarah Chalke, Tyler Labine & Judy Greer Interview MAD LOVE

by Christina Radish    Posted: February 13th, 2011 at 6:33 am

The new CBS comedy series Mad Love is about four New Yorkers, two who are falling in love, and another two who are forced to get to know each other, as a result. Ben (Jason Biggs) is a lawyer and hopeless romantic who meets the beautiful Kate (Sarah Chalke) by chance and instantly thinks she is the woman of his dreams. As they try to build a relationship, Ben’s best friend and co-worker Larry (Tyler Labine) and Kate’s roommate Connie (Judy Greer) begrudgingly have to spend a lot of time together and, even though they have a lot in common, neither can get past how much they despise the other.

During a recent press day to promote the show’s premiere, co-stars Jason Biggs, Sarah Chalke, Tyler Labine and Judy Greer talked about what sets Mad Love apart from other relationship sitcoms, collaborating together on this project, and how lucky they feel to be airing after How I Met Your Mother. Check out what they had to say after the jump:

Premiering its first footage at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Prep and Landing is Disney’s first computer-animated television special. Based on a idea from Chris Williams (Bolt), it tells the story of two elves, Wayne (Dave Foley) and Lanny (Derek Richardson) who work for the elite North Pole Christmas Eve Command Center. Under the watchful eye of the Command Center Coordinator, Magee (Sarah Chalke), they are advance scouts who prepare homes for Santa’s visits.

Prep and Landing will air December 1 on ABC.  Hit the jump to check out the trailer along with my brief thoughts on it.

HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER SEASON 4 Blu Ray review

by Clayton Stone    Posted: October 12th, 2009 at 12:49 pm

So here we are, four seasons in, and we still don’t know who the mother is. But does that really matter? No. As longtime viewers of the show are aware, “who” the mother turns out to be isn’t really what the show is about – it’s just one of the many devices that this fantastic sitcom uses to separate itself from the myriad of other bland, scripted, comedy fare we see on TV today. Rather, this show is all about the journey. Find out how the latest season of this journey stacks up, after the jump.
