All caught up on Breaking Bad? No? First off, how dare you? But, more importantly, watch out because this piece is packed with spoilers! Earlier this evening Breaking Bad baddie, Giancarlo Esposito, showed off how unlike Gus Fring he really is, enjoying a nice night out with his daughter at the premiere of The Adventures of Tintin. Naturally, after Gus’ shocking demise, the obligatory question had to be asked – is that really the end of Gus? While Esposito artfully dodged the question, he does note that “no one dies on Breaking Bad” and that Gus will “definitely be back” perhaps “to put a final stamp on the series’ ending.”…

Kevin Chapman, who portrays Det. Lt. Lionel Fusco on CBS‘ “Person of Interest,” loves working with a cast that, on paper, seems mismatched, but on screen, works like a charm. “If you lined the four of us up, you’d see four very different individuals,” said Chapman of his co-stars, Jim Caviezel, Michael Emerson and Taraji P. Henson. With great actors like Caviezel, who portrayed Jesus in “The Passion of the Christ” (and whom Chapman described as “classically handsome”), Emerson, who has played on cult shows such as “Lost” (and whose acting skills Chapman praised) and Henson, who has played in film and television ranging from “Hustle and Flow” and “From…

His comeback is being heralded everywhere. He was able to bring the whole gang back together to make us smile and shed tears of joy (well, at least this guy) once again. He is one of the most iconic stars of all-time. Ladies and gentlemen…Kermit the Frog! Kermit was kind enough to answer a few of my questions last week, despite his demanding schedule – and Miss Piggy – coming off the success of the recently released flick, “The Muppets.” This is not the most in-depth chat yours truly have ever done (more like a convo on a red-carpet actually), but the frog did give us a few tidbits about…

Kermit the Frog came to the CNN New York studio December 1 to promote “The Muppets” and his reading “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” with First Lady Obama at the annual tree-lighting ceremony at the White House that night. He answered questions with T.J. Holmes and Wolf Blitzer and actually gave some interesting information. For instance, we now know how old Kermit is. “I’m 55 years old,” he said. “I know it’s hard to believe.” Also, he spoke about his time doing hard-hitting journalism with Rapunzel on “Sesame Street” (if you recall, Kermit was like the neighborhood reporter). “There’s all sorts of stuff going on behind the scenes with her,…

I think I would be a good cat burglar.” Hutton and Riesgraf gave a bit of insight into some of the episodes in the new season, including two…
