Ryan Murphy on Gold Derby Today

by Melody Star | July 31, 2014 2:45 PM PDT

Ryan Murphy, as we tweeted earlier today, sat down with Gold Derby for a chat today as a nominee for the Emmy’s.   The Normal Heart has received 16 Emmy nominations and so there was a lot to chat about.   We are pleased to bring you the video from that chat:

The 66th Annual Emmy Awards will be held on August 25th and will be telecast live from NBC.

#TBT: Melissa Rauch on ‘The Office’

by Melody Star | July 31, 2014 1:57 PM PDT

Melissa Rauch is our featured Big Bang Theory star for this week’s Throwback Thursday (#TBT) story.

March 4, 2010, ‘The Office‘ aired an episode entitled ‘The Delivery:  Part 2‘ which featured Melissa Rauch as a mother of a newborn in the hospital sharing the room with regular character Pam on ‘The Office‘.   Needless to say hilarity ensues.

In this clip with Melissa, Pam Beesly is played by Jenna Fischer and Jim Halpert is played by John Kransinski.

Melissa makes an adorable newborn mother.   Wonder if we will ever see Bernadette try to be a new mother before the series ends.

Kveller: Top Five Reasons I’m Hosting the New “Candid Camera”

By Mayim Bialik

1. It’s pop culture I actually know of.

Since I don’t watch TV or go to many movies and am generally out of sync with pop culture, it’s very thrilling to be asked to be part of something that I actually know about. (Case in point: when I auditioned for my role on “The Big Bang Theory“ and was asked to do a female impression of Jim Parsons’ Sheldon character, my response was, “Who’s Jim Parsons, who’s Sheldon, and what is ‘The Big Bang Theory’?”) I watched “Candid Camera” on and off as a child and there’s something very surreal and exciting about being part of something that I actually used to watch. Note to J.J. Abrams, if you decide to bring back “Lost,” I was a huge fan and I’d love to be on that too.

2. Breaking up the monotony.

I am so grateful to work on “The Big Bang Theory” and to get to bring Amy Farrah Fowler to life every week. Still, as an actor, playing any one role can sometimes get tedious. Even playing myself as the host of “Candid Camera” is an acting job and it’s nice to play a different part, as it were.

Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting on the September 2014 Cover of ‘Women’s Health Magazine’

By Kayla Blackwell at 1:45 PM EST

We have just received word via Kaley’s Instagram that she is the cover girl of Women’s Health Magazine for September 2014.

Here are the photos Kaley posted:
There are two different covers.

And here is a pic of part of the article:
http://instagram.com/p/rH6c89OWQe/?modal=true
Thank you @womenshealthmag & @jefflipsky for shooting an amazing cover . Just an incredible experience ❤️❤️

Excerpt from the article:
Want to know what confidence looks like? Picture a woman who wears a pink wedding dress without asking a single person for their opinion. Or one who, after watching herself in one of the most popular shows on TV, tweets to her nearly 2 million Twitter followers, “I totally forgot to shave in tonight’s episode.”

That woman would be Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting, 28, who shows up to her WH interview just days after chopping her shoulder-length hair into a short shag. Despite a post-snip panic—”I was swishing my hair to the left so much, I was like, ‘Do I look like Justin Bieber?!'”—the chop was a blessing. “I feel liberated. It’s like I needed to find myself again.”

The Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons, Mayim Bialik and Kunal Nayyar have selfie fun this morning on Instagram

by Melody Star | July 31, 2014 9:35 AM PDT

Amid unsubstantiated rumors spreading  and a media frenzy about production delays and contract deals supposedly going south, it seems some of  the cast of The Big Bang Theory show the fans that they are still very happy and in touch with each other.

Three of the cast members this morning had a little fun with their Instagram “selfies”.

Mayim Bialik first posted her selfie, with the following caption:

missmayim 6 minutes ago Good Morning @therealjimparsons. I can do morning selfies too!

Jim Parsons  within moments followed with:

therealjimparsons 2 minutes ago @missmayim you beat me! I’m late! #goodmorning

Then Kunal Nayyar joined in the fun with:

kunalkarmanayyar 6 minutes ago @therealjimparsons @missmayim fine I’ll join the madness. Morning face. #thirdwheel

They may or not have come closer to an agreement with their contracts, but clearly the cast of The Big Bang Theory are close look forward to seeing each other back at the studio.  Here is to hoping all goes well today and they can be reunited tomorrow around a first Table read session for Season 8.
