John Constantine‘s business cards read “Exorcist, Demonologist and Master of the Dark Arts” — and all three of those vocations get a workout in NBC’s new drama based on the popular DC Comics character.

After decades in the Hellblazer comics and one ill-fated run at the big screen, Constantine makes his TV debut Friday (10/9c). Welsh actor Matt Ryan (Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior, The Tudors) plays the trenchcoated demon whisperer, a tortured con man who’d prefer to abandon his occult work but feels compelled to help those who need him most.

The forecast for Monday and Tuesday’s installment of The Voice (8/7c on NBC) calls for jaw-dropping singing with a high chance of unbearable tension.

Yep, the Season 7 Knockout Rounds are nigh, and TVLine has the exclusive on who’s going head-to-head — and what each hopeful will sing.

Not only that, but we’ve got first-look photos of 12 Knockout performances in the gallery below!

Here’s the skinny:

Mama said knock you out, goes the L.L. Cool J classic — and that’s exactly what The Voice will aim to do when Knockout Rounds begin Monday (8/7c on NBC).

But as the Season 7 coaches — Pharrell, Gwen, Adam and Blake — prepare to whittle down their teams in head-to-head solo matchups, who’s got the momentum? After all, the Knockout proceedings will whittle each team from eight hopefuls to four (with one Steal added from an opposing coach’s roster) — and that means only 20 of the 32 current artists will proceed to the Live Playoffs.

Son of a bitch! George Brent and other Warner Bros. stars forget their lines (photo: George Brent ca. 1940) The Warner Bros. outtakes from the studio’s 1939 and 1940 productions (see below) feature a whole array of movie stars and supporting players not getting things quite right while the cameras were rolling. Perhaps the biggest "star" — i.e., the one featured the most — in the montage is George Brent, who curses right and left after not getting his lines right in several scenes. But not to worry; "son of a bitch" is the strongest exclamation we get to hear. (I’m assuming stronger fare is to be found in the outtakes’ outtakes.) Besides George Brent, the Warner Bros. bloopers montage has Paul Muni joking around while forgetting his lines during the making of We Are Not Alone; Miriam Hopkins having her dramatic moment in The Old Maid ruined by a young maid...

Everything comes full circle today in the heart-rendering conclusion of The Bay's summer special, "Far From The Bay," leading into a much anticipated Season Two.

In the final installment of Fftb, Peter Garrett (Kristos Andrews) shares an emotional reunion with Claire Andrews (Marie Wilson), the woman he believed to be his mother, who has been locked in a mental institution for 10 years.

Special appearances in this week's webisode include Kimberlin Brown (ex-Sheila, The Young And The Restless/The Bold And The Beautiful), sitcom actress Cherie Johnson (Family Matters), and more, with the highly anticipated returns of The Bay's Mary Beth Evans as Sara Garrett, and Marie Wilson as Claire Andrews.

Watch it below:...

Pete Garrett, who thinks he's Pete Andrews, has spent the past couple of months looking for his mother, Claire (Marie Wilson). Last week he found out from his aunt and cousin, played by Anna Holbrook and Agim Kaba, that Claire was in a mental institution. As the story continues this week, Pete learns even more shocking news, this time about his mother and father. He also learns that Sara (Mary Beth Evans) is indeed his biological mother. How will he react to all this new information? Find out below in the latest webisode of The Bay.

Anna Holbrook is one of the most underrated actresses around despite winning and Emmy award in 1996 for her role as Sharlene Frame on Another World. She is also an ageless beauty who has never looked better. Former As The World Turns star Agim Kaba has continued to get better and better with each new role. They both guest star on this week's webisode of The Bay as Pete (Kristos Andrews) continues his "Far From The Bay" journey.

In the new webisode, Pete learns some shocking news about Claire Andrews (Marie Wilson). Watch it below.

Creator of The Bay, Gregori J. Martin and LANYfilms Productions have announced the premiere of Far From The Bay, a spin-off and prequel of Season Two, to begin streaming on the web Thursday, June 23rd at 3:15 p.m. Et / 12:15 p.m. Pt.

Viewers will follow Peter (Kristos Andrews, X Games Champion and Guinness World Record Holder), the youngest son of Sara Garrett (Mary Beth Evans, Days, Atwt, Gh), on his quest to find the woman he believes to be his mother. Shot on location in New York City, Peter retraces the steps of his cruel childhood in an attempt to find Claire Andrews (Marie Wilson, Atwt, PC), his adoptive mother who raised him until the age of seven.

With no memory of his recent past, Peter encounters members of his adoptive family, as well as those of his biological family, who are stunned by his misguided determination and jaded memories.
