19:55 - Life In Pieces - Greg Grunberg to Guest

Thanks to tsukikomew for the heads up.

Greg Grunberg has played several well-mannered characters in the past, but on CBS’ new comedy Life in Pieces, he’s taking a less wholesome turn.

The TV veteran will guest star on an upcoming episode as Mikey, the nephew of Joan (Dianne Wiest) and a former hero to Greg (Colin Hanks) and Matt (Thomas Sadoski). Mikey was always “too cool” and ultimately a poor role model, and Joan is worried his presence will drag the family into his craziness.

19:40 - Blood & Oil - Episode 1.08 - Rats, Bugs and Moles - Promotional Photos
19:35 - Jessica Jones - Interview with Krysten Ritter for the LA Times

Thanks to Alex Forrest for the heads up.

"The thing about PTSD is that it's not just a memory, it's feeling like you're back in that situation," Ritter says. "So it's about building all of those situations and your reactions to those situations. It's something I worked really hard on because you want to do it justice."

As the series unfolds, Jones becomes less anti-hero than anti-superhero — one that trades not on superhuman strength as much as good old-fashioned gumshoe skills.
