Cougar Town: Will Grayson and Jules Get Together?

Wednesday, Mar 10, 2010

Jules (Courteney Cox) and Grayson (Josh Hopkins), the will-they-or-won’t-they couple of Cougar Town, may be taking a step toward an actual romantic relationship in the coming episodes, but the waiting game has been fun, according to Hopkins. Even if they get together, there’s plenty of drama to be had with the introduction of Sheryl Crow to the cast and Bobby (Brian Van Holt) turning into quite the stand-up guy.

“There’s a real friendship growing between [Jules and Grayson] and they’re really taking it slow and easy,” said Hopkins. “As the season progresses, they’re going to get a little more romantically involved. This is a will-they-or-won’t that’s never been seen or done; it’s a lot messier.”

“People are rooting for them,” added Cox. “I love the thought of the love triangle and who I should be with, and having Bobby maybe become more of a viable person now that I might end up with Grayson. Ultimately, Grayson is probably someone that will be the push-pull relationship.”

While Bobby, Jules’ simple-minded ex-husband, has been known to be a skirt-chaser in the past, “I think he regrets it now,” said Van Holt. In his quest to be a better man for Jules, and a better father for Travis (Dan Byrd), he may step on a few toes. “There is definitely potential for Grayson and Bobby’s friendship to be threatened by Jules,” he added.

Guess who else is causing trouble for the bromantic relationship? Sheryl Crow will join the cast as a love interest—and at one point, a duet partner—for Grayson. “In the coming episodes, we go off with different females and our bromance is threatened,” said Van Holt. “Grayson starts to date her and gets taken away.”

Still, she’ll be a good influence on the ladies’ man. “She comes in and challenges Grayson in what he sees in these young girls, rather than be challenged intellectually by someone his own age,” said Hopkins. “He rethinks things and has a breakthrough.”

Who are you rooting for? Should Jules ride off into the sunset with Grayson or fall back into the arms of Bobby?

Jenifer Aniston in Courteney Cox’s Cougar Town

Monday, Mar 8, 2010

Looks like it’s time for the former Friends stars, Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox to wow their fans with a mini reunion of the small screen. The media is abuzz with rumors that the 41 year old gorgeous Aniston might just put in a guest appearance on the ABC sitcom, Cougar Town.

Given the latest evidence gathered from Hollywoodlife.com, producer and screenwriter Bill Lawrence whose resume includes Spin City, Clone High and Scrubs revealed that the sexy actress might feature in the second season of the comedy revolving a recently divorced woman, played byCourteney Cox , who starts dating younger men while living with her 17 year old son and discovers new facets of her character while surrounded by fellow divorcees. The co-creator ofCougar Town who also penned episodes for Friends in the first season said, “Jennifer Aniston is going to be on the show next season, she doesn’t know it yet. Courteney promised me that as a birthday gift,” at the 25th Annual Paley Fest in Beverly Hills.

The Bruce Almighty actress had previously put in a guest appearance as a rival magazine editor on an episode of Courteney’s two season FX series Dirt. The fact that Lisa Kudrow of the ditsy Phoebe fame too popped up as a guest star inCougar Town only serves to reaffirm the hope that its only a matter of time that the sexy Aniston too will put in her appearance sooner than later.

‘Cougar Town’: Is a Grayson and Jules hook up coming soon?

Saturday, Mar 6, 2010

The question mark at the end of that headline is simply a courtesy for the spoiler-phobic, because the answer is “yes” indeed.

According to “Cougar Town” co-creator Bill Lawrence, a Grayson-Jules hook up is happening.
As any good “Scrubs” fan knows, Lawrence is not too keen on the “will-they-or-won’t-they’ sitcom scenario. He likes to blow those conventions out of the water and get them out of the way sooner rather than later.

And Friday (Mar. 5) night, during the PaleyFest panel for “CT,” Lawrence seemed to confirm that Grayson and Jules’ day is coming up.

You all cool with that?
In the clip below, Courteney Cox gives her opinion on Jules and Grayson…

Wes Craven Still “In Discussions” Over Scream 4

Wednesday, Feb 24, 2010

Last week was a mad flurry of excitement over the announcement, via the L.A. Times, that Scream 4 was gearing up to shoot in May. Turns out it was a load of old cobblers. Will this counter-news derail the start date or is Craven playing with us like a serial killer with a victim? Or failing that – he’s giving us the lowdown on what’s happening with it all. The godfather of modern horror made his own announcement via Twitter:

“SCREAM 4 – LA Times has it wrong. I’m still in talks but nothing has been finalized.”

Scream 4 looks set to reunite the surviving members of the cast and is set back in the town of Woodsboro, where it all began. Courtney Cox-Arquette, husband David, Neve Campbell have confirmed they’ll be back for more gore and Scooby-Doo like shenanigans, and even better, Kevin Williamson has written the script. If you recall he walked after Scream 2, leaving Ehren Kruger to finish off with the lacklustre Scream 3. Whether Scream 4 actually happens with Craven remains to be seen. It would be madness for another director to take this on.

Craven has another horror film coming out this year with My Soul To Take. So there you have it, folks. Expect an announcement on Craven’s position soon…ish.
