This tale of a female Scrooge discovering ‘the true meaning of Christmas’ will elicit copious tears … at the time you have wasted watching such drivel

It’s harder than you might think to find movies without any redeeming features, but occasionally they do come along. Terrible writing, horrible direction, an appalling script, dreadful performances: Holiday Twist really does have it all. Perhaps it would be fair to say the basic premise – a workaholic Scrooge figure is won over by the spirit of Christmas – is solid, but it’s hardly original.

As in A Christmas Carol, there are supernatural elements here, including an angel who intervenes to return a woman stricken with brain cancer to her family at Christmas. But more supernatural still is the surreal abrasiveness of the lead character, Connie (Kelly Stables), a recently divorced mum who also heads up a large corporate parcel-delivery company. She is a complete nightmare,...

When TV fans and industry analysts talk about the last great network sitcoms to break through in the streaming era, "Superstore" should be one of the first names on their lips. The wildly funny, unapologetically pro-worker sitcom aired on NBC from 2015 to 2021, capturing the strange derangement of Trump-era America through the prism of a Midwestern big box store (think Walmart) where the customers are bizarre, the staff is endearingly dysfunctional, and nameless corporate bigwigs will do anything for their bottom line.

"Superstore" has the loveable ensemble cast energy of shows like "Parks and Recreation" and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," but where those shows have already been aged by their optimism, "Superstore" takes a realist approach to the stupid, dystopian daily struggles of late capitalism. It rattles off some of the funniest jokes I've ever heard at breakneck speed, all while simultaneously crafting touching, radicalizing plotlines about workers' rights, healthcare, immigration, and more.

Two and a Half Men at one point was one of the most popular TV shows on our screen. While Charlie Sheen takes away the most credit for making the show as popular as it is today, there were an ample amount of memorable characters who added to the series’ charm and appeal. Apart from its many male characters, the show also had some memorable female characters who contributed to the show’s clever plot and stood out for their impeccable portrayal.

While Melaine Lynskey’s Rose is a more prominent female character to be featured in the show, another character gets severely overlooked despite her dynamic presence: Kelly Stables’ Melissa.

Spoiler Alert: This post includes details about the series finale of NBC’s Superstore.

Superstore gave fans one last bang for their buck before closing the doors to Cloud 9 for good. The NBC workplace comedy wrapped its six-season run with a two-part series finale, which saw a happy ending for Amy (America Ferrera) and Jonah (Ben Feldman), and marked a brand new chapter for other members of the Cloud 9 family.

Creator Justin Spitzer, who stepped down as showrunner back in 2019, returned to co-write the emotional final episodes with executive producers Jonathan Green and Gabe Miller.

Part one of the series finale, “Perfect Store,” picks up from America Ferrera’s surprise appearance at the end of the “Lowell Anderson” episode, when Cheyenne (Nichole Sakura) calls up Amy Sosa to confirm rumors of a Cloud 9 closures due to the pandemic. Amy returns to St. Louis from California to help...

Every New Year’s celebration comes along with some excitement, pomp, and circumstance, but rarely has the countdown from 10 felt more urgent in the waning seconds of 2020. Yes, 2020 is just a number and yes, time is just an abstract concept created to explain celestial bodies moving around one another. But darn it all, it still feels great to see “2021” at the top of this article.

2021 will hopefully come along with some good news (though admittedly early signs aren’t looking great on that front). At the very least, however, it should come along with some interesting TV options. Due to Covid-19 production delays, there perhaps aren’t as many confirmed release dates for early 2021 as we’ve seen in years’ past. Still, there are plenty of exciting new and returning TV shows to keep you occupied throughout the chilly season.

Winter 2021 is when Marvel makes its triumphant return to television.

The extent to which Jonah is struggling to move on from Amy will be explored in the new year, when the Superstore employee is confronted by another ghost of girlfriends’ past.

As previously reported, Kelly Stables is set to reprise her role as Jonah’s ex in the NBC comedy’s sixth and final season. In TVLine’s exclusive first look photos above and below, Jonah looks rather confused when he comes across Kelly, which begs the question: What is she doing back in the Ozark Highlands store?

"Do you think we'll ever get out of here?" "Hopefully not..." Asa Pictures has unveiled an official trailer for a strange indie romantic comedy titled One Last Night, which is the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Anthony Sabet. The film premiered at the Santa Barbara Film Festival last year, though it's only now finally getting a small theatrical + VOD release at the end of this summer. The film is about two people, Alex and Zoe, out on a first date together at the movie theater. But after it's over and they try to leave, they discover they're locked in. Starring Rachele Schank and Luke Brandon Field as the couple.

TV Land initially renewed The Exes for a third season of 12 episodes and ordered another dozen -- giving the sitcom its biggest season order ever. How will the ratings be this year?

The second half of season three started airing on December 11th and will wrap up on February 26th.

Here's the press release:

TV Land Picks Up Original Sitcom "The Exes" For Fourth Season

New York, NY - February 3, 2014 - TV Land has picked up its hit original series "The Exes" for a 12-episode fourth season, it was announced today by TV Land President, Larry W. Jones. The series stars critically-acclaimed actors, Donald Faison ("Scrubs"), Wayne Knight ("Seinfeld"), David Alan Basche ("The Starter Wife"), Kelly Stables ("Two and a Half Men") and Kristen Johnston ("3rd Rock From The Sun"), with Leah Remini ("The King of Queens") featured in several of...

The original programming on TV Land is something of a mixed bag, but it’s an assortment with a common theme, and one that makes a lot of sense. There’s a mid-80s-early-90s throwback feel about all of their shows, though most of them try to give their comedy a nudge into the new era, and The Exes is one of the best examples of the overall attempt.

The ratings have certainly shown that they’ve got their hands on a good theory, and the fact that other networks are kicking out shows that are clearly from the same mold (with some success) further proves that there is a market.

Well, if The Exes is on your list of faves, you’ve got some good news. The show is coming back for at least 12 more episodes.

Catch all the info below, and let me know what you think of the show.

"The Exes" has welcomed some great guest stars in Season 3, including Leslie Jordan, Jodi Lyn O'Keefe and a "Clueless" reunion when Stacey Dash went on a date with Donald Faison. Now the show is welcoming two TV legends.

TV Land has exclusively revealed to Zap2it that "Happy Days" mom Marion Ross and Michael Nouri, of "NCIS," "Damages" and "The O.C., will be stopping by the show for the season finale, which sees Nicki (Leah Remini, who's been recurring for several episodes this season) coming to see her brother Stuart (David Alan Basche) and turning everyone's lives upside-down.

Nouri is playing a distinguished, sexy former law professor of Holly's (Kristen Johnston), while Ross is a woman that Holly encounters in an assisted living facility. "The Exes" also stars Wayne Knight and Kelly Stables. It airs Wednesday nights at 10 p.m. Et/Pt on TV Land, with the season finale airing Feb.

Check out this sneak peek clip of "The Exes" holiday episode, "How the Grinch Spent Xmas," featuring Phil (Donald Faison) deciding to make "hot chocolate" for Eden (Kelly Stables) because he thinks she's getting him a sexy home video for Christmas.

Phil decides that a striptease while he sings "Deck the Halls" is the way to go, which is ... something else. Happy holidays, indeed.

Meanwhile, Holly (Kristen Johnston) meets the perfect guy on a flight. When he's denied entry to the country, Holly has to choose between the perfect Christmas with her friends or remaining at the airport with the man of her dreams.

"The Exes" airs Wednesday nights at 10:30 p.m. Et/Pt on TV Land.

Not ready for a break from seeing Tyler Posey on the small screen? You’re in luck. Right off Teen Wolf’s season 3A finale last night on MTV, Posey is primed to guest star on Wednesday’s episode of The Exes on TV Land.

The sitcom, now in its second season, stars Donald Faison (Scrubs), Wayne Knight (Seinfeld), and David Alan Basche (The Starter Wife) as a group of divorced men who room together in an apartment owned by their divorce lawyer, played by Emmy winner Kristen Johnston (3rd Rock From the Sun).

In the new episode, “The Hand That Robs the Cradle,...

Kristen Johnston's "The Exes" character is dating young in the upcoming "The Hand That Robs the Cradle" episode. That makes sense. After all, what woman wouldn't want to date a younger man -- especially if he looked like "Teen Wolf" star, Tyler Posey?

In the episode airing on Aug. 21, Holly (Johnston) decides to start dating a much younger man. The young fellow (Posey) is a law student -- could this be a legitimate relationship? Meanwhile, Phil (Donald Faison) and Eden (Kelly Stables) evaluate their relationship, and Stuart (David Alan Basche) convinces Haskell (Wayne Knight) to pursue his crush.

After they taped their episode together, Johnston and Posey presented their "top 10" lists for dating a younger man and a mature woman. The video itself is rather entertaining, but you might be too busy for such things. If that is the case, here are the lists (more or less):

Top...

TV Land has ordered 10 additional episodes of The Exes. It's not exactly clear however if this is a fourth season renewal or additional episodes for season three.

Earlier this evening, The Exes Twitter feed revealed, "Breaking #TheExes picked up 4 another season." Larry Jones, the President of TV Land, wrote to congratulate the cast and crew.

Actress Kelly Stables later tweeted, "Thanks to You @The_Exes was picked up for 10 more episodes! (2nd half of season 3!)"

An official press release is likely to be issued soon. Whether it's season four or a super-sized season three, we know there are lots more episodes on the way.

Updated: We now know that season three is being extended by 10 episodes, bringing the season total to 20 installments.

TV Land Extends Season Three Of "The Exes"...

The same day its third-year sitcom scored its first Emmy nom — Ok, it was for Outstanding Cinematography for Multi-camera Series — TV Land has called for more. The cable net has order 10 additional episodes of The Exes as part of the current third season, which is pacing 9% above last season’s average in the 25-54 demo. Created by Frasier alum Mark Reisman, the series stars Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables and Kristen Johnston. TV Land made a similar back-10 order on The Exes in November.

Sci-fi and comedy rule this week as I empty my notebook with the latest intel on CBS’s Under The Dome, an interesting alien relationship on Falling Skies and hilarity over at TV Land’s The Exes. Let’s go!

Under The Dome: The Stephen King novel-turned-series is finally here Monday on CBS and let me tell you that you can believe the hype. The show is captivating and I trust you’ll be drawn into the mystery when a dome suddenly appears over the town of Chester Mills.

While there are familiar TV faces like Mike Vogel, Dean Norris and Britt Robertson, one new face is Alexander Koch, who plays Junior, the son of Norris' character. But, Koch advised me, the series doesn’t necessarily follow the book. “We're going in a little bit of a different direction than the book and I think it’s very good.

As previously reported, Hot in Cleveland, The Exes, and The Soul Man are returning to TV Land beginning June 19th. Cleveland will be finishing up its fourth season while Soul Man is returning for season two and The Exes will be starting its third round.

Exclusive: TV Land has closed the deal for a second season pickup of The Soul Man starring Cedric “The Entertainer” and Niecy Nash and has ordered a third season of The Exes. As part of The Soul Man renewal, the Hot In Cleveland spinoff is changing showrunners, with Yvette Lee Bowser (Living Single) replacing Phoef Sutton. The deal had been in the works for awhile, with Cedric pulling the trigger on the renewal news prematurely a month ago. The Soul Man premiered in June as TV Land’s second highest rated series debut behind Hot In Cleveland among Adults 25-54 (1.0 rating) and Women 25-54. In total viewers, the series debuted to 1.9 million, behind Cleveland (4.8 million) and Happily Divorced (2.4 million). By the end of its 12-episode freshman run, The Soul Man lost its ratings momentum from the premiere but has done well among African Americans, posting a 3.6 rating in Adults 25-...

As the divorced roommates try to get along, TV Land is trying to attract big ratings for their original sitcoms, including season two of The Exes. The TV show's cast includes Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables, and Kristen Johnston.

The comedy's ratings are the best way to tell if The Exes will be cancelled or renewed for a third season. The second season typically airs Wednesday nights on TV Land and there are 12 episodes.

Earlier this year, TV Land decided to give Happily Divorced an extra-big second season. Now, they've done the same thing for The Exes.

The Exes revolves around three divorced men who live together and their lawyer/landlady. The cast includes Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables, and Kristen Johnston.

In February, the cable channel ordered a second season of 12 episodes of The Exes and aired them between June and September. Now, according to Deadline, TV Land has ordered 10 more episodes and is considering them part of season two.

It's unclear why they're not calling the 10 new installments season three but fans of the show should be pleased they're getting more installments. The Exes is one of TV Land's lower-rated sitcoms with season two averaging 910,000 viewers with a 0.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic.

Exclusive: The second season of TV Land’s sophomore comedy The Exes is getting supersized. The network has ordered 10 more episodes from the ensemble comedy, bringing its second-season order to 22 episodes. The Exes, created by Frasier alum Mark Reisman, stars Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables and Kristen Johnston. It premiered late last fall with a 10-episode original run and was renewed for a second season in February. The first portion of Season 2, which wrapped in September, averaged 1.2 million viewers in Live+7.

Rosemarie DeWitt (My Sister's Sister) and a pixie-haired Olivia Thirlby star in Nobody Walks. Too bad, I enjoy walking. (Did you notice at the 1:19 mark DeWitt's character admits she's attracted to Thirlby's character?)

Claire Danes returns to the award winning Showtime series Homeland starting Sunday, September 30 at 10 p.m. and I can't fracking wait!

Jennifer Lawrence stars in the Lydie Marland biopic Ends of the Earth. The story follows Lydie Marland and her “uncle/adoptive father/husband, oil magnate.” Marland's parents hand her over to be adopted by her aunt and uncle, but the uncle has another idea. (This is beyond gross.)
