THE VOICE Exclusive Video: CeeLo Green on What He Looks for in a Contestant

While there has been a ton of buzz about the slight format change to THE VOICE this season, one thing remains — you still have to get either Christina Aguilera, CeeLo Green, Adam Levine and/or Blake Shelton to turn around during the Blind Audition phase if you want the chance to compete on the series.

But given how many talented artists come on that stage, what really inspires the coaches to press their buttons? In the exclusive video below, Green shares what attracts him to an artist (featuring a pretty awesome montage of the outrageous numbers his former contestants have done), gives an update on last season’s runner-up Juliet Simms, and more…

Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Tuesday, August 28, 2012

The summer shows seem to be winding down, so tonight isn’t too bad.

Take a look at the options you have…

America’s Got Talent | 8pm on NBC
“Episode 26”
The first group of 12 acts in the semi-finals perform live for the judges and America’s vote, and the chance to win the $1 million prize. Howie Mandel, Sharon Osbourne and Howard Stern star. Hosted by Nick Cannon.

Pretty Little Liars | 8pm on ABC Family
“The Lady Killer”
With Garrett’s trial for Maya’s murder starting, the town of Rosewood has become a media spectacle. At odds with her friends over Paige, Emily doesn’t know where to turn when the media attention becomes too much for her. “A” sees this as a perfect opportunity and takes advantage of the situation and sends Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer on a path to a possible truce. But is “A’s’ peace offering real or just a trap for a much darker ending? Meanwhile, Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer are betrayed as someone very close to them is revealed as part of the “A” team.

So much more. Keep reading…

Watch the BEN AND KATE Pilot Now!

One of my favorite things about this time of year is unexpectedly falling for a show you never thought you’d fall for. This season? That show is BEN AND KATE.

It’d be easy to dismiss a show about a quirky family, but there’s something special about these guys: they have heart, their antics are believable and I actually laughed out loud several times during the premiere episode. (Which is a pretty big rarity this season.)

But enough from me. I’m really hoping if you watch the full pilot (below), you’ll see why I love it so much…

What do you think? Are you charmed by Ben and Kate Fox, too?

BEN AND KATE debuts Tuesday, September 25th at 8:30 PM on Fox.

GLEE Season 4 Premiere Photos: ‘The New Rachel’

When GLEE kicks off its fourth season on Thursday, September 13th, the show will be split in a way viewers haven’t experienced in the past — with one part set at McKinley High and the other following the recently-graduated seniors.

BONES Season 8 Promo: Brennan Goes Blonde While on the Run (And Takes Down Booth)

Holy freakin’ amazing BONES promo, guys.

While it’s taken a bit longer for BONES to get their promotional love for the new season compared to other Fox shows, based on this new teaser spot, the wait for the new season is going to be so worth it.

Take a look at the 30-second spot (full of almost entirely new footage) which includes Brennan’s new look, a clue of who may be in contact with Brennan, plus Booth and Brennan’s pretty epic reunion…

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE: The All-Stars on Returning to the Show, Who They’d Like to Partner With Next, and More

While every episode of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE is a little bit bittersweet thanks to the new format (where the performance and results shows are combined), this past Wednesday’s episode was a little bit brighter thanks the addition of the SYTYCD all-stars.

After the show, I spoke with Alex Wong, Jaimie Goodwin, Nick Lazzarini, Allison Holker, and Kathryn McCormick about returning to the series, working with these new dancers, who they hope to work with next, and more…

AWKWARD Recap: ‘Homewrecker Hamilton’

Oh, my poor Matty/Jake loving heart! This episode of AWKWARD certainly delivered in terms of keeping the intensity of the past two episodes.

It starts out at Kevin’s apartment, where Jenna is still trying to figure out why Jake broke up with her. I have to admit that I found this a little hard to believe, considering Jenna had spent most of their relationship keeping her previous relationship with Matty a secret. Not that Jenna needed to immediately think that might be what Jake is upset about, but you’d think it would at least cross her mind. But it doesn’t; not until she accidentally sends Jake a text asking “why,” and he replies back with a picture of her and Matty in her bed and the words “you’re a cheater.” Ouch.
