Mockingbird Lane Preview: Meet the New Munsters

Mockingbird Lane is coming to NBC.

This remake of The Munsters, which ran for three years on CBS in the mid-1960s, was originally filmed as a pilot for mid-season.

But NBC has scrapped those plans and will introduce viewers instead to Portia de Rossi's Lily, Eddie Izzard as Grandpa and the other members of this unusual family on October 26 as a one-night-only special.

Watch the first official trailer now:

Grimm Review: Fate Only Pulls in One Direction

One of Grimm’s best assets is the ability to show someone’s true colors. What is just below the exterior of a character?

"The Bottle Imp" did just that, and in a way that made both the procedural story and the continuing character arcs richer.

Hank & Nick On the Move

The plot twist of the little girl, April, being the Wesen hurting and murdering people didn’t surprise me too much, considering the Grimm-pedia specifically mentioned “offspring” (while being conveniently left out by Nick and Hank).

But what did take me aback - and what was so much fun to watch - was this living and breathing Wesen world that each creature adapts to and carves out for his/her kind. April’s family members know that as they grow up hormones tend to send them out of control, and to provide a counterbalance to that they have a Wesen of their own looking out for them and keeping them in line in at Juvenile Detention.

The biggest take away from the entire case this week was Nick’s reaction to April near the end when he kept watching her in the interrogation room. There are a couple ways to take this, and it could be as simple as Nick waiting to see the guard introduce herself to April. But I see it as Nick continually realizing just how much he is losing from Juliette’s forgotten memories.

Over the course of the episode Nick grew attached to April and the feeling became mutual. Parlay that with Nick’s dream of Juliette remembering everything about them and it’s not hard to imagine Nick is longing for the life he once had. However, Nick’s fate as a Grimm seems to be taking the reigns, as Aunt Marie’s warning that he should break it off with her because his life will become too dangerous continues to come true.

Plus, Nick’s attempt to remind Juliette of what they once lost by dancing with her had completely unseen results: A kiss with Juliette leaves her seeing Renard instead of Nick.

Poor Juliette, she’s ending up in a big mess of collateral damage because Adalind plays dirty.

Renard is another story, and I (still) can’t read him for the life of me. Is his newfound obsession with Juliette because of the potion he took to wake her up, or are these feelings been just below his unbreakable exterior much longer? If this is being set up as some kind of super awkward Days of our Lives love triangle you can count me out on that story.

Finally, we have Hank. As I’ve mentioned before, Hank being in on the secret makes him far more interesting, and tonight he gets to see Nick’s playground: the trailer. Grimm is playing with this “core three” of Nick, Hank and Monroe a lot more this season from promos, posters and art to every week Hank learning just how much of a partner Monroe is when Hank couldn’t be or can’t be to Nick.

Here, Hank learned that Monroe was the one who saved him way back in “Game Ogre,” and the more Hank learns of Monroe the more the fear dissipates in place of admiration.

A few more thoughts:

  • Adalind is back! And she’s just as mysterious and connected as Renard, but the difference is Renard doesn’t really have any sort of control over her.
  • I still think Adalind’s cat is the key to getting all of Juliette’s memory back.
  • Monroe taking care of the spice shop, while funny, is not somewhere I want him to be. I want him back out in the field helping Nick out, but I can’t fault him he’s being a good friend/boyfriend.
  • I totally want a storage shed buried in a remote location.

Castle Sneak Peeks: Naked Kate Beckett!

What a trip!

On Monday's new episode of Castle, "Murder, He Wrote," Kate and Beckett plan a getaway to the Hamptons. In secret, of course. Sort of, that is.

In the first clip below from the installment, the secret of Beckett's trip with her boyfriend is out. Who is this guy? Is he a bad ass? Ryan and Espo decide they simply have to find out:

Alexis and Martha are already in on the relationship, of course... much to the chagrin of Castle in this sneak peek, as they pepper him with questions and advice:

Finally, the pair arrives at its destination. There are stars in the air. There's a heated pool awaiting a late-night dip. There's a very naked Kate Beckett - and there's a dying man in their backyard:

Gossip Girl Producer Previews "High Infidelity"

On Monday's all-new episode of Gossip Girl, Serena is determined not to fall back into old habits.

We've all heard that before, but will this time be any different for the Upper East Side It Girl?

Looking to make a new name for herself, S throws her first adult event in "High Infidelity," a benefit for the Central Park Conservancy. Executive producer Sara Goodman previews this and more in the video below.

By Serena's side is Steven, who appears to have a connection to Sage, who Nate is dating.

"Dating" is one word for it, anyway. Nate is also in need of a new journalistic bombshell, having punted his Gossip Girl expose, and is looking to revamp the Spectator by running Dan's serialized novel.

Will Georgina and Dan go for that? We see them deciding the best way to publish his epic new work and have the biggest impact. Perhaps teaming up with Nate offers a mutually beneficial partnership.

Meanwhile, Chuck convinces Amira to stick around and find out why Bart faked his own death, and Blair will be in classic Blair form as the head of Waldorf Designs, looking to outshine the competition.

"High Infidelity" airs Monday night, the second of the final season's 10 installments. We learned the title and a key guest star of the Gossip Girl series finale, slated to air December 10, yesterday.

Check out the nearly three-minute episode above and comment below!

"Gross America" Book Launch PartyAn Illustrated Lecture and Book Signing with Richard Faulk, with Music and Cocktails by Friese Undine
Date: **** Thursday, October 11 (NOTE DATE CHANGE)
Time: 8:00
Admission: $5
Produced by Morbid Anatomy
*** Copies of Gross America will be available for sale and signing

Don’t judge a book by its cover. And don’t judge this collection of American oddities solely by their gross exterior. With wit and insight backed up by meticulous research, Gross America, the debut book by genial polymath Richard Faulk, takes you places you thought you never wanted to see, to unearth stories you’d never imagined.

What is Gross America?
Gross America is toothsome concoction of science and nature trivia, served with a side of sagacity and wit, and delivered in an irresistibly putrescent bundle.

No, really: What is Gross America?
Ok, it’s a travel guide to the grossest sites our 50 states have to offer. Sniff out the chemical secrets of the celebrated “sperm tree” of Los Angeles; gaze into the innards of North America’s sole surviving anatomical Venus; thumb the pages of a prison memoir bound in the memoirist’s own skin; or sneak a peek into the chamber pot used by the real-life Uncle Sam.

And those are just a fraction of the potential verb-object parings made possible by this nasty little book.

On top of being a sheer joy to read (he wrote modestly), Gross America offers an introduction to the wild nature of our 50 states and a window into some of the more perplexing moments of science, past and present. It will answer questions you might never have realized you had, and change the way you think about things you never wanted to think about in the first place.

You may never look at toxic waste the same way again.

Why should I come to the release party?
Well, at the very least, you’ll probably get drunk. There will be music, too. There will also be a discussion, and you will be able to ask the author impertinent questions about his book, and you will become intrigued enough to buy it. Which you will also be able to do.

RICHARD FAULK is a writer, editor, and Observatory habitué. A onetime time-travel columnist and occasional education reporter, he has also written about Vikings for Australian tweens, covered academic conferences for Columbia University, and celebrated the films of Pam Grier in Penthouse. He now lives in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he thinks deeply about trivial matters.

Santa Muerte, San la Muerte and The Fascinating History of Death Personified in Latin America

I took the photos you see above over a series of trips to Los Angeles to document the fascinating phenomonon of Santa Muerte, a sacred figure worshipped as part of the larger pantheon of Catholic saints in Mexico and now also, with the wave of Mexican migrants, in the United States as well. Thought to have its roots in a syncretism of the beliefs of the native Latin Americans and the colonizing Spanish Catholics, the name literally means "Holy Death" or "Saint Death," and she--also fondly referred to as "The Skinny Lady--tends to be worshipped by disenfranchised members of society such as criminals, prostitutes, transvestites, the very poor, and other people for whom conventional Catholicism has not provided a better or safer life.

Doing some research into the matter, I recently stumbled upon Frank Graziano's Cultures of Devotion: Folk Saints of Spanish America, which offers fascinating insight into the genesis of both Santa Muerte and the very similar San La Muerte tradition, which developed independently from a similar native/Catholic syncretism in other areas of Latin America; I also would give anything to see one of the bizarre theatrical productions described below:

In the Jesuit missions, the publication of many books included, in 1705, a translation of Juan Eusebio Nieremberg's De la Diferencia Entre lo Temporal y Eterno. Among the engravings in the book was one of a triumphant personified death, holding a sickle (a variation on the scythe) in one and and an hourglass in the other. Death as a skeleton also appears in another image, which was likewise copied from a European original. 

These engravings document the presence of the Grim Reaper in the missions, but more important in folk culture were theatrical productions staged by the Jesuits for the Guaranís' religious instruction. The performances often included Christ's resurrection, with props of skulls and bones and with the Grim Reaper in the supporting cast for dramatization of Christ's triumph over death. Such performances contributed to fixing the personified image of death within a religious context. 

Almost all the artists in Jesuit missions were Guaranís who were trained by Europeans. These indigenous carvers of saints thought of their work more religiously than artistically: "Image-makers quite literally believed that they were making saints and gods." This observation is particularly suggestive in the context of San La Muerte, whose traditionalal carvers were likewise creating, not representing, a supernatural power. For the Guaraní mission artists, "The reality of things was not expressed by imitating their visual appearance, as in European art, but by capturing their essence." The imagery, including the image of death personified, was adopted from European traditions and then invested with this "essence." The carvings transcend mere representation and become empowered in themselves like amulets.

All of this also brings to mind the wonderful 18th century book La Portentosa Vida de la Muerte (The Astounding Life of Death); more on that here.

All photos you see above are from my trips to Los Angeles to document the Santa Muerta phenomenon; for more, click here to see my complete Flickr set.

More Than Skin Deep: Our New Free eBook on Drawing Anatomy

Knowledge of anatomy is essential for artists who want their figures to appear realistic and natural. But we are not surgeons or medical professionals! Artists are not, and should not be, slaves to anatomical correctness.

Author Dan Gheno discusses resources he's used for drawing anatomy, plus methods of practice that will allow you to integrate it into your art in ways that make sense and aren't a hindrance to what you want to do. That includes what to focus on when you are life sketching, why sculptural corch is so helpful to artists, and what Old Master anatomy drawings are worth a good, long look.

Anatomy isn't magic. It just takes a willingness to pursue the subject and a little bit of memorization to start to make headway with it. With your free eBook, Human Anatomy Drawing for Artists: An Art Lesson on Studying & Drawing Anatomy, you'll get the guidance you may have been missing and more than a few ideas on how to make inroads with anatomy drawing as an artist.

'Grey's Anatomy': Watch April's Awkward Return to Seattle Grace (Videos)

ABC

'Grey's Anatomy's' Sarah Drew

Let the awkward moments begin on ABC's Grey's Anatomy.

In three new clips from Thursday's episode, titled "Love the One You're With," April (Sarah Drew) makes her triumphant return to Seattle Grace after Owen (Kevin McKidd) asked her to return to her former position.

VIDEO: 'Grey's Anatomy' Season 9 Trailer: Sex, Marriage and Arizona's Road to Recovery

Turns out, the lovely Dr. Hunt didn't tell anyone that she'd be returning -- as an attending, no less! -- including Jackson (Jesse Williams). Even better: the chief of surgery also didn't mention to April that Jackson opted to pass on taking the gig in Tulane and that the guy with whom she had a boards-inspired fling was still scrubbing in at Seattle Grace.

Elsewhere, Cristina (Sandra Oh) begins to make new friends in Minnesota -- with Dr. Parker (Desperate Housewives' Steven Culp) -- as the shop talk turns potentially flirtatious.

STORY: 'Grey's Anatomy's' Jessica Capshaw on Arizona's Heartbreaking Loss and What's Next

Speaking of flirting, Alex (Justin Chambers) has new intern Jo (Camilla Luddington) assigned to his service and begins to make a move on the chick with the guy's name. Callie (Sara Ramirez), however, has other ideas about the potential pairing and doesn't hold back with what so far has been the funniest line of the medical drama's dark and twisty ninth season.

Wonderfully illustrated pharma ads created by legendary Spanish graphic designer, Enric Huguet.  Said to be responsible for some of the most interesting posters in the 50s and 60s, Enric style is based on simplicity and conceptual clarity, ranging from illustration to simple geometric graphics.

In an interview with Gràfics Dissenyadors Col.legi of Catalonia magazine, Enric says of design,

“A graphic designer is a poet and a linguist of visual images in the world. Poetry brings warmth and emotion to the message. The linguist logic introduces clarity through the correct articulation of the message. In every work must have emotion, feeling and clarity.”

Enric designed for various pharmaceuitcal companies in his career and in 1973 he won the Laus prize for this series of Calcium Sandoz Forte illustrations for Uriach Laboratory  (shown above).

I recently had the chance to learn from some top creative directors in pharmaceutical advertising that a great ad needs to visually stand on its own.  This is accomplished through injecting emotion, feeling and clarity into the ad, exactly how Enric stated.

Emilio Garcia skull brain

Barcelona-based artist, Emilio Garcia of lapolab just released a sneak peek at his latest creation, the Skull Brain.  You may know Emilio for his now famous and prolific Jumping Brains series. Available in almost any color imaginable these whimsical brains have received worldwide coverage, appearances in gallery shows (including our 2010 Street Anatomy show), and collaborations with many big artists.

The Skull Brain, done in different colors and materials, will be showcased at the Art Miami, CONTEXT pavilion at Black Square Gallery. CONTEXT, Miami’s newest cutting-edge, contemporary art fair, will launch with a VIP Private Preview on Tuesday, Dec. 4, 2012, coinciding with the 23rd edition of Art Miami.

I love Emilio’s story because he wanted to do something outside of the digital realm.  He created lapolab, a space for himself to do visual art and plastic experimentation.  Spurred on by the success of the first Jumping Brain project, he’s gone on to do many other projects and the Skull Brain is just his latest big iteration.  Looking forward to seeing where this one goes!

Also look out for a collaboration between Emilio and Street Anatomy in the future!

Exclusive Grey's Anatomy First Look: Will Derek Ever Operate Again?

Patrick Dempsey

Derek's got a new profession on Grey's Anatomy!

With the prospect of never getting back into the O.R. looming, Derek (Patrick Dempsey) will turn to teaching in the Thursday, Oct. 25 episode, which was directed by Kevin McKidd.

Grey's Anatomy Scoop: Jessica Capshaw discusses Arizona's fate and what's next

As Derek struggles to come to terms with his injury, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) will be there to support him, though she'll refrain from discussing her own surgeries, aware that he may never operate again and that prospect is not looking good.

"I don't know if his hand ever will be fully recovered," Pompeo tells TVGuide.com. "I don't know if he's ever going to do surgery again, or if it's just sort of like, he can't do surgery right now, I'm not really sure."

Grey's Anatomy: Where were we and what's next?

Check out the exclusive first look photos from the episode, "I Saw Her Standing There," along with a behind-the-scenes look at McKidd directing:
