by Chris Harnick, posted Oct 19th 2011 12:15PM
Has ABC found its newest it girl in Mandy Moore?According to the Hollywood Reporter, ABC has made a pilot commitment to 'Us and Them,' a single camera family comedy starring Moore. A put pilot commitment means the network has to pay up if the project doesn't make it to air.
'Us and Them' follows newlyweds Annie (Moore) and Ben (yet to be cast) and the conflicts between the families they grew up with and the new ones they've made as adults.
Mandy Moore Says 'The Little Mermaid' Inspired Her to Sing (VIDEO)
by Donald Deane, posted Nov 19th 2010 12:00PM
Since Mandy Moore lends her voice to the upcoming animated feature 'Tangled,' it's only fitting that she was inspired to sing at a young age by another famous animated character. On 'Good Morning America' (weekdays, 7AM ET on ABC), Moore said Ariel of 'The Little Mermaid' put her on the path to become a singer.Mandy Moore Accidentally Drugged Her Uncle With "Pot Cookies" (VIDEO)

Mandy Moore looks so innocent. The singer/actress grew up in a religious home, starred in the clean-cut teen drama 'A Walk to Remember,' and started out singing bubbly pop songs -- like her hit single 'Candy.' Though Moore seems sweet, be advised: she could be "trouble" underneath it all. You know what they say about taking candy from strangers. Though in Mandy's case, it's the cookies that you need to watch out for.
On 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (weeknights, 12AM on ABC), Moore revealed that did get into trouble recently. She and her husband, Ryan Adams, hosted a potluck supper -- very wholesome and 1950s-ish. But one of Ryan's friends brought over a batch of cookies that contained "a particular herbal ingredient."

So You Think You Can Dance: Top 16 Perform

(S05E09) Things were getting too exciting during the competition episodes, so the producers brought in Toni Basil to join Nigel and Mary on the panel. Even though it's a big deal to be receiving a prestigious award, I still found myself dozing off when she started talking about it.This year, the competition is so tight that it's hard to figure out who's going to be in the bottom three from week to week. So many of the contestants are really impressive in picking up the different styles, and that continued tonight.
What also continued was couples who were great last week being not so great this week. And there are still so many couples that there are only a few favorites sprinkled throughout. In other words "What have you done for me lately?" is in full effect. So what did they do?
So You Think You Can Dance: Top 4 Perform
by Jason Hughes, posted Aug 7th 2008 8:23AM
(S04E22) The two night season finale is here and there are only four dancers left. On the guys' side we have Joshua and Twitch, two hip-hop dancers with very different styles. The girls are representing contemporary and jazz this year, with both Katee and Courtney. I can't say I would have expected this top four at the beginning of the season, but with the range of talent we had this year, it was hard to guess who might make it here.With Mandy Moore joining Nigel and Mary on the judging panel, we were treated to a two hour extravaganza of dance dance dance! Each of the four finalists danced no less than five separate times, sometimes with only a commercial break between them. Those whiners at American Idol talk about how exhausting that show can be, but can you imagine the physical strain these dancers go through? Especially as they ramp up to a show as demanding as this finale. Thankfully, it was packed from beginning to end with amazing numbers and amazing dancing!
So You Think You Can Dance: Top 18 Perform

(S04E08) Two down and seventeen more to go until we find "America's Favorite Dancer" for the summer of 2008. Have you found your favorite yet? I'm narrowing it down, but it's a bit early yet to be picking favorites and there are still a ton of dancers left, as the lo-o-o-ong intro sequence showed us. Nigel and Mary were joined this week on the judge's panel by contemporary madwoman Mia Michaels (of the inspired "Tim Burton wedding" piece last week). And her hair was shockingly bleached very blonde.
I think I prefer Michaels choreographing than judging. She focuses almost too much on her own interpretations of the emotions in the pieces rather than what the dancers had to bring. I think she's insane and brilliant in choreography, but maybe a bit too "out there" for really constructive criticism.
How I Met Your Mother: Wait For It (season premiere)
by Joel Keller, posted Sep 24th 2007 9:01PM

(S03E01) Welcome to season three of How I Met Your Mother. If you read my Early Look post on the season premiere, you'll know that season three picks up where season two left off.
Well, kinda. Yes, Robin and Ted have gone their separate ways after a year together. Yes, Marshall and Lily have just gotten married (and I guess are back from their honeymoon, but they never say).
But something didn't happen --at least not right at the start of the episode -- that I think almost every HIMYM fan expected to happen.
How I Met Your Mother season three -- An early look
by Joel Keller, posted Sep 21st 2007 3:03PM

When we last left the group of five intrepid twenty-somethings from How I Met Your Mother, Ted and Barney were smoking cigars after Lily and Marshall's wedding. Ted had just finished telling the tale of how he and Robin broke up. And, after some uncharacteristic sympathy, Barney gets all charged up about being a wingman for Single Ted. The season ends with Barn launching into his signature line: "Ted, my boy, this is going to be legend... wait for it..."
Well, we waited all summer. And Carter Bays and Craig Thomas know how long we waited; they named the third season premiere, which airs on CBS at 8 PM ET on Monday, "Wait For It." Was it worth the wait? Some non-spoilery thoughts after the jump.
So You Think You Can Dance: Week 8
by Brett Love, posted Aug 9th 2007 4:40AM
(S03E20) Holy smokes. Call me crazy if you don't agree, but I'm calling this the best episode of the season. There hasn't been a standout number one performance every week, but there has always been something that didn't quite work, or didn't quite measure up to the rest. I didn't find that here. It would seem that the talk about the choreographers stepping things up wasn't just talk as all of them delivered great routines for the dancers to perform. The criticisms were few and far between this week, from me, and from the judges. That would be Nigel and Mary as usual, joined this week by Debbie Allen. After the jump, we'll get to all of the performances, and a rant about Fox scheduling.

The Simpsons: Marge and Homer Turn a Couple Play (finale)

Buck Mitchell [after causing the Duff blimp to crash]: This is the worst blimp crash ever!
Grandpa: Too soon!
Okay, that exchange cracked me up, as did a few other moments during this episode, such as the television show "Hunch" the family watches in the beginning of the episode which list JD Salinger as a writer in the closing credits. I also liked the "Sexy Marriage Land" song performed by Tabitha Vixx (voiced by Mandy Moore), and Homer becoming indignant towards Marge because she insists on judging him on things he's done, which is so totally unfair.
