The Lying Game returns tonight after Pretty Little Liars, and the premiere is full of crazy drama. What could these twins possibly be scheming this season? What is Sutton and Rebecca’s big plan for getting their family back together? How does Alec and Ted factor in? And what about all the relationship drama? I recently caught up with Alexandra Chando (who plays Emma and Sutton) and she previewed the big premiere, a new guy in town and how the family dynamic will change this season.

INTERVIEW: Lucy Hale (Aria), Shay Mitchell (Emily) and Ashley Benson (Hanna) from Pretty Little Liars

My love for Pretty Little Liars is no secret (pun fully intended) and the big winter premiere tonight is nothing short of great. The girls are dealing with an unwelcome new classmate (Mona is back), some shady parental situations, and oh right, remember how Toby is on Team A? It’s sad we might not get to see those abs for too much longer. But I digress. I recently had the chance to catch up with Lucy Hale, Shay Mitchell and Ashley Benson (Aria, Hanna and Emily, respectively) who shared what to expect this season, relationship drama and much more.

INTERVIEW: Kaitlyn Jenkins (Boo) from Bunheads

Kaitlyn Jenkins

Bunheads is back tonight and the girls have had an interesting summer. With Michelle back in Vegas and Fanny not teaching dance, they’ve had to focus on other things in their lives for the first time ever. In the winter premiere, we see just how much not having dance in their lives affects the girls. I recently had the chance to catch up with the Bunheads girls. Kaitlyn Jenkins talked about what’s coming up for Boo this season, Boo’s relationship with Carl and some new guest stars.

INTERVIEW: Katie Leclerc (Daphne) from Switched at Birth

January 7th, 2013

KATIE LECLERC

Switched at Birth returns tonight and I’m excited about it. This season is going to be an interesting one, as we are going to see a big change for Bay that will affect everyone in her life, including Daphne. There’s also a lot of family drama going on as a result of the big trial verdict. Daphne’s had a tough time as of late and getting over her breakup with the chef is not going to be so easy. I recently had the chance to talk to Katie Leclerc about what’s coming up for Daphne (a food truck), a new love interest and what she hopes to see for Daphne.

INTERVIEW: Vanessa Marano (Bay) from Switched at Birth

January 6th, 2013

VANESSA MARANO

Switched at Birth returns tomorrow night and it picks up where all the crazy drama left off. The family is dealing with the verdict of the trial that leaves Angelo very rich. Meanwhile, Daphne is dealing with the big chef break up (and not taking it super well) and Bay is trying to get back on a good path again. I recently had the chance to catch up with Vanessa Marano (who plays Bay), who talked about the big premiere and a big change coming for Bay, an illegitimate child (Angelo is going to have some things to deal with) and what she hopes to see for Bay this season.

INTERVIEW: Charisma Carpenter (Rebecca) from The Lying Game

The Lying Game is back next week to bring us more mysteries, cliffhangers and crazy drama. Charisma Carpenter played one of my favorite characters on Buffy, so I was excited at the chance to speak to the person behind sassy Cordelia. Of course Rebecca, her character on The Lying Game, is very different. All we know is that Rebecca is the twins’ mom and has been working with Sutton. We have yet to find out how Sutton and Emma were taken away from her or any of her backstory, but Charisma promises that’s coming. She also talked about a big premiere bombshell, how the Sutton/Rebecca relationship is going to develop and Rebecca’s twisted marriage with Alec.

INTERVIEW: Emma Dumont (Melanie) from Bunheads

January 4th, 2013

EMMA DUMONT

I am excited all my ABC Family shows are coming back in a matter of days! Bunheads returns on Monday and from what I hear, things are going to be a bit different in Paradise. A new Bunhead enters the picture (Jeanie Mason from “So You Think You Can Dance”), new love interests pop up and will Michelle finally commit to being a permanent resident of Paradise? I recently caught up with the girls of Bunheads, and Emma Dumont (who plays Melanie) previewed the big premiere, an upcoming fight with Ginny and a possibly love interest for her character.

INTERVIEW: Blair Redford (Ethan) from The Lying Game

The Lying Game returns on Tuesday and the premiere is quite the doozy. It’s full of twists and turns and storylines I am still trying to wrap my head around, in a good way. When last we left off, we found out that Sutton (the bad twin) was working with her real mother (Rebecca, played by Charisma Carpenter) and failing to tell her twin Emma what was going on. They are clearly up to no good, and right in the thick of things is Ethan. The once boyfriend of Sutton, then Emma, then maybe back to Sutton again is going to face his fair share of issues this season as well. I recently had the chance to chat with Blair Redford (who plays Ethan) about the big premiere, the love triangle and what will surprise viewers most this season.

INTERVIEW: Julia Goldani Telles (Sasha) from Bunheads

January 3rd, 2013

JULIA GOLDANI TELLES

Bunheads returns to ABC Family on Monday, and I am glad to see it back. While it may not be the Gilmore Girls 2.0 that everyone was expecting from Amy Sherman-Palladino, it really came into its own at the end of its fall season (ABC Family breaks up its shows a little differently than other networks) and turned into a fun, witty, delightful show. I recently had the chance to catch up with the girls of Bunheads to discuss the big premiere and the new season. Julia Goldani Telles (who plays Sasha) talked about a new love interest for Sasha, working with Sutton Foster and how the show is a bit different from the first ten episodes.

INTERVIEW: Katie Leclerc (Daphne) from Switched At Birth

September 3rd, 2012

KATIE LECLERC

Switched at Birth quickly won me over last year with its truly unique premise, paired with dramatic relationships, family turmoil and an absent father to boot. The show is charming, wonderfully written, and has an amazing cast. Last season was full of twists and turns for the Vasquez-Kennish family, and Daphne went through quite the emotional ringer. Just when it seemed like she found happiness with Wilke, he’s shipped off to boarding school. In the fall premiere, Daphne gets a job in a restaurant kitchen, with a new (very good looking) boss. But things aren’t so easy for her at first. She has to figure out a way to work in the kitchen without being able to hear anyone, and that proves to be a challenge. Sarah Maines had the chance to chat with the lovely Katie LeClerc (who plays Daphne) about what to expect this season, what it means to her to be a part of the show, and her not-so-secret love for High School Musical (and one of her co-stars).
