By jon-niles-mstars-reporter | Oct 24, 2013 12:29 PM EDT

Smash may have been canceled earlier this year, but that doesn't mean the drama surrounding the musical show is over. The show's star, Katharine McPhee, was this week photographed locking lips with director Michael Morris, who worked on the show as well. Unfortunately, this isn't a "new couple alert" news update because Morris is married to actress Mary McCormack, who had no idea this affair was going on until the photograph surfaced. Oh and McPhee is married to 47-year-old producer Nick Cokas. Yikes! Read More »

'Star Wars: Detours': Seth Green's Satirical Animated Series That Never Was ... but Could be?

By jon-niles-mstars-reporter | Oct 23, 2013 02:27 PM EDT

It was created by Robot Chicken creator Seth Green that poked fun at some of the more notorious Star Wars characters like Darth Vader. Basically Green expanded on his Robot Chicken bits of the same nature. In short, Disney and Lucasfilm did not want to have such a comedic look into this universe on the air while the upcoming films are being produced. Read More »
