Who cancels Mr. Sunshine and Better with You but keeps Happy Endings? If they’re not going to give a show a chance, there’s no point. And perhaps people should stop hiring Andrea Anders, this is not working out for her. So ABC’s just made a big announcement. Guess how excited I am about it. Cue […]

4 and Out
  Kelly Bedard

It seems 4 is the limit for Rob Lowe, who’s just announced that he’s leaving Brothers & Sisters at the end of this season. Citing some crap about being “underutilized”, Lowe is currently in talks with ABC for his own show, on which he will have more of a central role. Ensemble work is clearly […]

Since Brothers & Sisters‘ first season back in 2006, Matthew Rhys has been one of my favourite people on television. His complicated and endearing character Kevin Walker has also been a favourite, as well as one half of TV’s best couple: Kevin and Scotty. The 34-year-old masks an accent and tackles English as a second […]

An Eonline Poll: why I love TV watchers

Eonline just did a poll of Brothers & Sisters fans, asking them what their favourite thing about the show is. And wouldn’t you know it, the results are dead on accurate. With the one obvious exception (a win of 50%+ for the incomparably awesome Walker family dinners), the audience clearly has a favourite aspect of […]

One Walker leaves, another shows up (not exactly a fair trade, but not devastating); one marriage falls apart as another grows stronger in its first year and yet another is in the works; two family members quit Ojai, another two are fired, a different two are hired and the first two return;  two matriarchs find […]

Anything to do with Ryan Walker. The big haired manipulative brat is possibly the worst thing to ever come out of a Berlanti show. He’s badly written, REALLY badly cast and just a general nuisance on an otherwise lovable show. Addison Montgomery’s sex life, or that of the people she works with (except maybe Cooper’s). Someone please […]

And while we’re on the subject of Canada and its contributions to the world of entertainment, imagine my delight when this week’s Brothers & Sisters contained a guest spot from a Canadian icon of sorts- Megan Follows, who played Anne of Green Gablesin the beloved film adaptation, was introduced this week as the new director […]

Scene Stealer

… and since we’re on the topic of Rob Lowe (see previous post), let’s talk about last night’s 2 hour episode of Brothers & Sisters. I was promised what should have been a Lowe tour-de-force; this was supposed to be his Emmy episode. And while the 2 hours did contain some intense emotion from Lowe, […]
