First Look: Life on Mars

BuzzSugar — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 14:30:48 -0700

So far, we haven't seen too much of ABCs remake of Life on Mars. The show, which will begin airing after Grey's Anatomy on Oct. 9, had a pretty tricky road to TV, with nearly every actor being recast except for leading man Jason O'Mara. The cast now includes Michael Imperioli, Gretchen Mol, and Harvey Keitel, who are finally starting to show up in promos and clips.

The show, based on a British series, finds O'Mara's character — a New York City cop named Sam Tyler— mysteriously transported back to the 1970s. Keitel plays an older detective, Gene Hunt, who doesn't always follow protocol, while Imperioli plays another officer and Mol plays a woman trying to prove she deserves a shot at police work.

One clip of Sam and Gene meeting in a bar surfaced recently, and now there's a brief ABC promo showing shots of Imperioli and Mol as well. Still no pilot, but I'm hoping that will appear before too long. I enjoyed the British version of the show, but all the trouble this adaptation has run into has left me feeling wary. At least it's good to see some proof that there will be a show after all! To watch the new promo, just

Rachel Bilson Is a Piece of Art

Wowzers at the Whitney last night! Rachel Bilson looked smokin' hot in her mini Herve Leger dress. We found out she was hosting the Whitney Art Auction shortly after sadly being crowned the worst dressed at the Costume Gala, but it looks like Ms Bils redeemed herself tonight. It's weird to ever think of the adorable starlet as super sexy but in a dress like that it's hard to avoid. The Whitney Art Party was presented by Max Azria (posing with Bilson) which also explains all the Herve dresses worn last night. James Franco also showed off his cute self on the red carpet. Hmm, they kind of look cute next to each other, don't they?

Winona & Paul Show Off Their Maybe Perfect Ten

Molly — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 01:03:17 -0700

Some of the eclectic cast of The Ten came out for the NYC premiere last night. It's no secret that we love seeing Winona, and when she's on the arm of personal favorite Paul Rudd it's all the more welcome. A very pregnant Gretchen Mol and Famke Janssen looked great on the red carpet, but some of the movie's other stars like Adam Brody and Jessica Alba missed the screening. Hey, maybe next time. Meanwhile, something always looks a little off with the beautiful Rashida Jones, right? I definitely can't wait to see this little dark comedy, which consists of vignettes about the 10 Commandments, when it comes out August 3. In case you missed the awesome trailer, check it out here.
