BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Agents of SHIELD Casts Blair Underwood

Read on to learn which role the Ironside actor has accepted.
With Marvel's Agents of SHIELD on break until March 3rd, we'll soon see the 8-part series Agent Carter take its place. And while the show concluded with what most agree was as strong an episode as they've ever made (read our review), they certainly aren't looking back. The series is moving forward by not just picking up the loose papers ala Captain America: The Winter Solider, it's establishing all-new faces for its second half.

According to THR, Blair Underwood will be joining the show's cast, which begins shooting new scenes this week. Underwood, who resume includes the very good (LA Law) and the frankly awful (Ironside) will play Doctor Andrew Garner, who is Agent Melinda May's ex-husband. Such additions aren't new for the series, as we've enjoyed the Bobbi Morse/Lance Hunter storyline since it was introduced. Now, May's personal life comes into focus with Underwood's signing, although we were surprised to Hydra mole Ward (Brett Dalton) shacking up with 'The Calvary' a couple of times during mid-season.

Granted, such stories might not serve the series in the future, now that we have genuine superheroes in Skye/Daisy Johnson/Quake. Perhaps the May/Garner arc will reveal a new side to the steely pilot, but for now we'll have to wait. Marvel's Agents of SHIELD will return to ABC on March 3rd.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
