Here are two pop culture references I never thought I’d make in the same sentence: ABC-TV’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” and Grammy Award winner Ashanti.

Was it Augustus Hill, the philosophical, always cool, wheelchair-bound inmate in HBO’s violent, often gross-out prison drama “Oz”? Maybe it was the hapless Michael Dawson on “Lost,” who came and went from the show and storyline with such dizzying... Continue Reading →
Today's Guest: Actor Donal Logue, star of "Life," "Grounded For Life," "The Knights of Prosperity," and "Gotham." Donal Logue joins the cast of the NBC drama series “Life” this fall.
