When a writer crafts a cliffhanger he or she either puts a character in jeopardy -- if a gun is fired on a TV show, you can bet that's where they'll cut to commercial -- or creates a provocative mystery. All serial dramas use these techniques, but none has ever captured the imagination of the nation as did the 'Who Shot J.R.?' episode of 'Dallas,' 30 years ago this week. In 1979, 'Dallas' had ...

Not long ago I found my 12-year-old daughter sitting on the floor of our living room, crying quietly. Fanned out on either side of her were the seven 'Harry Potter' books, several of them in pieces, rubber-banded together. A poster from the first 'Harry Potter' film lay unrolled at her feet. "It's almost over," she said, looking up. "The first part of 'Deathly Hallows' comes out in November, ...

Pop-Ed: If you were a child of the 1970s like I was, you can't forget what your mom and dad aspired to be: Iconic TV parents. Memories first came rushing back when Barbara Billingsley, who played June Cleaver on 'Leave It to Beaver' (1957-1963), died on Oct. 16. And then, on Oct. 19, Tom Bosley, Mr. Cunningham from 'Happy Days' (1974-1984), also passed. It doesn't matter that the two shows ...

Two big celebrity breakups have hit the news since yesterday. Yikes! Let's examine the pieces: Courteney Cox and David Arquette wrote in a statement, "We have agreed to a trial separation that dates back for some time. The reason for this separation is to better understand ourselves and the qualities we need in a partner and for our marriage. We remain best friends and responsible parents to our ...

Pop-Ed: This weekend, Sylvester Stallone and his aged Hollywood beefcake ensemble propelled 'The Expendables' to the top spot at the box office with a winning combination of star power and firepower. Meanwhile, in Orlando, Fla. at the 'Star Wars' Celebration V, George Lucas announced that all six 'Star Wars' movies will finally be released on Blu-ray in 2011. As I read the stories, I had a ...

Nicole Venables leads a double life. She's an established hair stylist and the owner of Ruby Begonia Hair Studio in LA, as well as a dedicated mother. Then there are the times she's busy putting together rough-and-tumble looks for the one and only Sylvester Stallone -- Rocky, Rambo, the works. In the throes of international press for 'The Expendables,' Venables (pictured at right with Stallone) ...

Pop-Ed: Mae West once said, "There are no good girls gone wrong. Just bad girls found out." I'm left contemplating those words as I watch Angelina Jolie, whose role unfolds as the ultimate femme fatale ("deadly woman" in French) over the course of her new action thriller, 'Salt.' With roots in the hothouse eroticism of film noir, today's sinister seductress is a hardcore action heroine. No ...

Pop-Ed: Because I wanted a peek into my not-so-distant future, I ran over to San Francisco to catch the first showing of Sundance favorite 'The Kids Are All Right,' a film that could be the sequel to my own family's story. Like the movie, my two teenagers were conceived with the sperm of an unknown donor. And in 10 months, my eldest will turn 18 and be able to place a call to the Sperm Bank of ...

Pop-Ed: Mark Ruffalo is in talks to play the Incredible Hulk in the upcoming 'Avengers' movie after Edward Norton was ditched. But there's a problem with the way the trades are reporting these casting conundrums: Nobody has been cast as the Hulk himself since Lou Ferrigno slapped on an unhealthy coating of green body paint for the '70s TV series. That's right -- Ruffalo, Norton and Eric Bana ...
