Seal Team‘s Clay might want some body armor plates alongside his dinner plate, as he squares off with Stella’s parents in this sneak peek from this week’s episode.

In the above clip from “Never Say Die” (airing Wednesday at 9/8c on CBS), Stella’s folks (played by Black Box‘s David Chisum and Star‘s Nealla Gordon) have some questions for Clay (Max Thieriot), about his military commitment and where a proper family life could possibly fit in.

Why would he put his life on the line again and again, doing the bidding of “craven” politicians, when...

Mr. Lucifer went to Washington during Thursday night’s Supernatural. Ok, not quite, but he did take up residence in the body of the Potus, who was hanging out at a presidential compound in the fall finale. (And some thought the resurrected Hitler episode was timely!)

With Lucifer out of the cage and doing some vessel hopping, things have certainly gotten interesting this season on Supernatural. And after having one last hurrah in the body of rock star Vince Vincente this past week in “Rock Never Dies,” it seems he will truly go onward and upward in the midseason finale, “Lotus.”

Following the premiere, we suspected that Lucifer would engage in a power struggle for control of Hell with Crowley, but now we know that he has no plan, which may make him even more dangerous. In fact, he really only intends on smashing “as many of daddy’s toys” as possible.

Episodes: 13 (hour)

TV show dates: April 24, 2014 -- July 24, 2014

Series status: Cancelled

Performers include: Kelly Reilly, Ditch Davey, David Ajala, Terry Kinney, Ali Wong, David Chisum, Laura Fraser, Siobhan Williams, and Vanessa Redgrave.

TV show description:

This dramatic series revolves around uncovering the mysteries of the human brain --

Catherine Black (Kelly Reilly) is a world-famous neurologist who is brilliant, beautiful, and at the top of her game. However, few know that she's also bipolar. The medical director of The Cube, this complex woman draws patients from all over the world. Outside of work, she keeps multiple secrets from her family and loved ones.

Doctor Ian Bickman (Ditch Davey) is a brilliant neurosurgeon and a known womanizer. He's handsome and funny but his work comes first.

As expected, ABC has cancelled their summer series Black Box after one season of 13 episodes, reports EW.

Black Box revolves around a beautiful and brilliant neuroscientist (Kelly Reilly) who's hiding the fact that she's bipolar. The rest of the cast includes Ditch Davey, David Ajala, Terry Kinney, Ali Wong, David Chisum, Laura Fraser, Siobhan Williams, and Vanessa Redgrave.

The series debuted in late April to a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.87 million viewers. It was a mediocre start for the dramatic series and the numbers got progressively worse as new episodes were released. Towards the end of its 13 episode run, Black Box dropped to a 0.6 demo rating with 3.72 million.

The last two episodes aired on July 24th, leaving the main character's professional fate up in the air.

Action thrillers are a dime a dozen in Hollywood, so when one of them shoots a little higher than usual, we tend to notice here at We Got This Covered. That’s why we’re pleased to be able to exclusively debut new stills and artwork from the indie high-concept thriller Checkmate, which looks at the same heist from six different perspectives.

Starring Danny Glover, Sean Astin, Vinnie Jones, Mischa Barton, Michael Pare, Johnny Messner, Katrina Law, Willa Ford, Antwon Tanner and David Chisum, Checkmate “chronicles how the actions of individuals affect us all, as six people are thrown together during an elaborate bank heist where any move can alter the outcome,” according to the film’s official press release. It was directed by Timothy Woodward Jr. and written by Henry Mitchell, Calvin Cox and Jennifer Lynch.

ABC recently cancelled several shows (Mixology, Suburgatory, Betrayal, etc.) and renewed many others (Resurrection, Revenge, The Goldbergs, etc.). What about the new Black Box series that airs on Thursday nights?

The show revolves around a beautiful and brilliant neuroscientist (Kelly Reilly) who's hiding the fact that she's bipolar. The rest of the cast includes Ditch Davey, David Ajala, Terry Kinney, Ali Wong, David Chisum, Laura Fraser, Siobhan Williams, and Vanessa Redgrave.

The show debuted on April 24th to a poor 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.87 million viewers. The ratings have gotten even worse as the weeks have progressed. This week's installment hit a new low with a 1.1 rating and 4.31 million.

While ABC hasn't cancelled Black Box, they surely will. The ratings have just been too low to be renewed for a second season.

ABC gave Black Box a straight-to-series order and ordered 13 episodes without seeing a pilot first. They held it until late in the season (typically not a good sign) on Thursdays at 10pm as a replacement for their hit show, Scandal. Will Black Box live up to expectations? Will it be a ratings success and earn a second season or will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned.

Oh boy. Guys, I do not know what to do with Black Box, ABC’s new medical drama. (Yes, the show is about neither airplanes nor experimental theater; yes, its protagonist’s last name is “Black”; yes, this is a titling convention that must be stopped immediately.)

When its logical left brain is in control, Black Box is an utterly conventional, thoroughly dull entry in the over-saturated “Insufferable Genius” genre. But when the show’s crazy right brain takes over, it’s a jaw-dropping, over-the-top campfest with true potential to fill the Smash-sized hole in your (read: my) heart.

Neither version is good,...

Black Box, ABC‘s latest drama, feels a lot like a show created by committee, and constructed largely by piecing together ratings research of plot and character points. A little bit House, a hint of Grey’s Anatomy, and a heaping dose of the hokey, “we’re calling you stupid,” plot construction of Scandal… et voilà. Of course, if those last two are among your favorite shows, welcome to your new obsession.

Dr. Catherine Black (Kelly Reilly) is the world’s most impressive and important neurologist… or whatever. She’s so cool that she has her own facility in New York City. Known as “The Cube,” it’s all neurology, all the time, and Dr. Black runs the show. But,...

It's Speed meets When a Stranger Calls, by way of Saw and The Purge, in the indie thriller Unknown Caller, which is ready to dial into limited theaters on March 1st. Everything you need to know to get you prepped for the release awaits, including poster art and an intense and action-packed trailer.

Dig in!

Directed by Amariah Olson and Obin Olson, the flick stars Louise Griffiths, David Chisum, Assaf Cohen, Henri Lubatti and Victor McCay.

Synopsis

A psychopath uses a family’s high tech security system with a ticking time bomb to terrorize them for 90 minutes demanding an answer to his question; ‘Who Am I?’

The one thing you could never disappoint me with is the casting of Mark Margolis in just about anything, even the pop culture friendly Ryan Murphy series, American Horror Story: Asylum. Some of you should be able to recognize Margolis as the infamously wheelchair-bound and bell-ringing Cartel man, Hector “Tio” Salamanca of Breaking Bad. Sure, he’s done plenty of other projects, including a guest-starring role on the first season of Person of Interest, but his claim to fame is his astounding ability to portray so much of Tio’s emotions through various facial twitches and the ding ding ding of his little bell. In my mind, nothing will ever top that role, but he can still try. Ahs: Asylum is a strange enough series to possibly give him the opportunity to create an equally memorable character but, the thing is, we don’t know about who he’ll play.

In addition to a number of actors returning from the first season, more than a dozen new actors have joined the cast of American Horror Story: Asylum. Although the new season is already filming, we have news of a few late casting additions, which include someone that Breaking Bad fans will instantly recognize.

Mark Margolis (Breaking Bad, pictured below) will join the cast in a recurring role, according to EW. Unfortunately, like many of the roles, he will remain a mystery until the show airs. However, we know that his character will be named Sam Goodwin and have some information on two guest roles. Amy Farrington (Hung) will be playing a “worried mother”, while David Chisum (One Life to Live) has been cast as a “loving husband”.

American Horror Story: Asylum features a brand new story set at an institution for the criminally insane during the 1960′s. Adam Levine, Chloe Sevigny,...

The cast of "American Horror Story: Asylum" has grown by three as the fabulous Mark Margolis ("Breaking Bad", "Oz"), Amy Farrington ("Hung"), and David Chisum ("One Life to Live") have all signed on as new characters in the upcoming Chapter 2 of the popular FX series.

EW learned that Margolis (pictured right), best known currently for his turn on "Breaking Bad" as wheelchair-bound drug lord Hector “Tio” Salamanca, is playing a recurring character called Sam Goodwin (no other details released). Farrington plays a worried mother on the show, and Chisum portrays a loving husband.

"American Horror Story" is welcoming a lot of new faces to the Asylum in Season 2. The latest is Mark Margolis, who played the wheelchair-bound drug czar Hector Salamanca on AMC's "Breaking Bad," reports EW.

Margolis received a Guest Actor Emmy nomination for his "Breaking Bad" work. So far the only detail about his "Ahs" role is the name -- Sam Goodwin.

"Ahs" has also added Amy Farrington ("Hung") as a worried mother and David Chisum ("One Life to Live") as a loving husband -- though we don't know if they are a married pair or not.

Ding-ding! An Emmy-nominated villain from Breaking Bad is coming to American Horror Story. Veteran character actor Mark Margolis, who played the stroke-addled wheelchair-bound drug lord Hector “Tio” Salamanca on the AMC drama, has been cast in a recurring role in Ahs: Asylum.

In addition to Breaking Bad, Margolis has played memorable characters on projects such as Scarface, HBO’s Oz and The Wrestler. We don’t have many details about his new character on the FX horror drama. Okay, we don’t have any details about his character. He plays a recurring character named Sam Goodwin, that’s all we got.

Dark Mirror

Stars: Lisa Vidal, David Chisum, Joshua Pelegrin, Lupe Ontiveros, Christine Lakin | Written by Matthew Reynolds, Pablo Proenza | Directed by Pablo Proenza

Originality in horror can be hard to come by; a lot has been done before so it’s hard to come up with new things. Sometimes though there are ways to manipulate reality in ways and add extra dimensions that create a whole new world where anything can happen. This is something that Dark Mirror tries to do.

Deborah Martin is a photographer who moves into a house with her family. The house used to be the home of an enigmatic artist who disappeared with his wife; local legend says before he disappeared he may have in fact killed his wife. When taking pictures around the house Deborah takes a photograph of a mirror in the bedroom and from that point things start getting strange, like doors...

Originally unleashed back in 2007, “Dark Mirror” is a low key psychodrama horror, which now makes a belated arrival on UK region 2 DVD via Arrow Films. The film was directed by Pablo Proenza, who worked as an editor on the Michael Moore documentary “Capitalism: A Love Story”, and stars in the lead “E.R.” actress Lisa Vidal, along with television actor David Chisum, Christine Lakin (who some may remember from way back when in the television series “Step by Step”) and Joshua Pelegrin. Vidal plays Debbie, a woman who relocates from Seattle to Southern California with her husband Jim (David Chisum) and young son Ian (Joshua Pelegrin), moving into a house with mesmerising stained glass windows. A photographer looking for work, Debbie snaps herself looking in the bathroom mirror, with the window in the background, and experiences an oddly hallucinatory effect, after which she starts seeing strange visions of a hooded figure.

Okay, let me take a moment to catch my breath... Wow.

The standard and quirky Castle episodes to which we are usually privy are always enjoyable and fun. The annual two-parter, though? Heart-pumping.

The series has done it again. The fourth season’s double episode event started with “Pandora” and, simply put, it rocked. This was an episode that kept you on your toes and was every bit of amazing. Being that this is a to be continued, let’s talk about what we learned so far.

Castle’s First. Cue the awkwardness and cue annoyed Beckett. Guest star Jennifer Beals started her arc as CIA Agent Sophia Turner here. Castle had previously based a character on her for his Derrick Storm novels and Kate is not loving that idea.

Turns out our mystery writer spent a year with Sophia and it seems like things could have been a little bit more than professional.

A couple's car is carjacked and the carjacker barely gets in, when a body falls onto it. Horatio (David Caruso) on the scene, looks up. Tripp (Rex Linn) explains the carjacker tried to run, but the body fell from the ficus. Walter (Omar Miller) says he was too big to have just fallen out of a tree. Horatio replies he didn't since the tops of the branches are sheared off. Horatio: "He fell from the sky." Me Tom (Christian Clemenson) determines there's no perimortum bruising and they'll be lucky if they can find the Cod, he fell from terminal velocity, higher than a tree. Calleigh (Emily Procter) says he was found in the middle of Miami airspace, so he's most probably a stowaway from a plane. They both refer to him as 'Icarus' who flew too close to the sun and got burnt. His bone marrow shows signs of osteoporosis...

Veteran actress Kathy Najimy has landed a role on Desperate Housewives.

The actress - who has appeared on a number of shows, including Privileged, King of the Hill and Numb3rs - will guest star in as a police officer with a surprising connection to Teri Hatcher’s Susan.

“Susan suspects Katherine was the one who attacked Julie, so she gets [a cop] to help her,” creator Marc Cherry told Entertainment Weekly. “But then she finds out the policewoman went to high school with her — and Susan stole her boyfriend, too! So [Najimy] has been going around the past 30 years resenting her.”

In other Desperate Housewives casting news, Rebecca Staab and David Chisum are also coming to Wisteria Lane.

They'll debut on October 25; while Najimy's episode will also air in October.

Most of the time, when Desperate Housewives viewers hear about a "cheating scandal," they assume a disloyal spouse is sleeping around. And that's typically the case.

But cheating of a different sort will be an issue this fall, as TV Guide reports that Tom will take a few shortcuts on his college work when the new season of this ABC hit returns.

Lynette will find out and will Not be pleased.

Hmmm, we just re-read that and realized that it is entirely possible that the "cheating" in question is with another woman. Guess we'll need to tune in and find out.

We can at least confirm with certainty that Rebecca Staab and David Chisum are joining the cast. See, we're good for something!

Details about extra series that accompanies the sixth season of "Desperate Housewives" have been unearthed. As previously reported, there would be eight vignettes, released weekly as the series' side dish, which are promoting Sprint mobile. Turns out these vignettes are produced by creator Marc Cherry and written by the show's writers.

"They're kind of like the old Taster's Choice commercials, but we added a lot of wicked dark humor, murder and adultery and betrayal," Cherry told EW. Executive Producer Sabrina Wind chimed in, "It's very Desperate Housewives. It was shot on our set, with our crew, and written by our writers."

While EW reported that the 35-second spots will air beginning the show's premiere on September 27, ABC Soaps in Depth said that they will begin as early as Tuesday, September 22 with the introduction of two new characters played by Rebecca Staab and David Chisum. Cherry said Staab and Chisum will...

Another week, another exciting piece of casting news for Desperate Housewives.

The show, which most notably added Drea de Matteo this summer, has found a couple new residents for Edie Britt's home.

Rebecca Staab (who has appeared on The Young and the Restless and NCIS, among other shows) and David Chisum (best known as Miles Laurence on One Life to Live from 2007-08) will come aboard the ABC series as a married couple.

The duo will premiere on the October 25 episode of Desperate Housewives.
