Grimm & Fairly Legal tonight, new film for Alessandra Torresani & interviews with Jane Espenson and Scott Porter

Friday updates:

Alessandra Torresani has a new movie in the works, a horror called Paranormal Initiation. Shock Till You Drop has the first details:
Morgan Fairchild and Alessandra Torresani are starring in Paranormal Initiation. This one follows three sorority sisters find themselves trapped inside their haunted house and must uncover the secrets and escape before it’s too late.
Esai Morales is back on Fairly Legal tonight (USA, 9 pm). Synopsis:
While mediating bankruptcy negotiations, Kate decides to help a client who's unable to pay his mortgage because of a drug-dealer tenant. The case catches Ben's attention when he learns the dealer's lawyer is his rival, Travis.
And here is what happens on Grimm (9 pm, NBC):
Nick (David Giuntoli) and Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch) join Hank for dinner, where Nick discovers Hank’s mystery date is none other than Adalind (guest star Claire Coffee), the same Hexenbiest who tried to kill Aunt Marie. Meanwhile, Captain Renard (Sasha Roiz) takes matters into his own hands when a visit from foreign representatives of his royal bloodline threatens his position. Elsewhere, Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) and Rosalee (guest star Bree Turner) are called into action when the lives of Hank and Sgt. Wu (Reggie Lee) hang in the balance.

Jessica Tuck from True Blood guest stars. Here is a sneak peek with Russell Hornsby, David Giuntoli, Claire Coffee and Sasha Roiz:

The Pop My Culture Podcast has a new audio interview with Jane Espenson. She talks about Husbands and Once Upon a Time among other things.

There are a few new photos of James Marsters in Metal Hurlant Chronicles at James-Marsters.eu.

UKTV.co.uk talked to Scott Porter about Hart of Dixie:
What appealed to you about this series?
Bluebell felt like a wonderful, larger-than-life place where out of the ordinary things could happen but remain plausible. Above all, I fell in love with the character of George Tucker. He is a wide-eyed, ever-trusting guy who does not have an ounce of cynicism in him.

George is an all-American good guy. Is that a true reflection of who you are in real life?
I was raised in the Midwest in Nebraska and I have a very strong family, so in that way, I'm very similar to George. But I also think I've seen more places and done more things than George. I'm probably more like Wade in real life!
StarCam has an interview with him from the College Television Awards.



Last not least, if you see The Cabin in the Woods this weekend and "Mother Buckner" looks familiar, it's Maya Massar, the nice lady who tried to claw Graystone's cab to death in "Retribution." The film opens in the U.S., Canada, the UK and a bunch of other countries today. Here is the trailer:
