Skytv interviewed Shane’s co-star Melinda Clark at the opening night of “West Side Story” some weeks ago; she talked about Nikita and Shane saying really lovely thing about him! Take a look!

Couple of days ago Shane was at a Foo Fighters LA secret show! No pics are online yet, but we hope to see something soon!

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – The Foo Fighters took time out from finishing their new album to unveil some new tunes and dust off some oldies at a secret club show for fans, family members and famous friends in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
Among the famous faces in the crowd at Palladino’s were actors Ryan Phillippe, Amanda Seyfried and Shane West who took in a set list that boasted such hits as opener “Times Like These,” “My Hero,” “For All The Cows,” “Generator,” “The Pretender” and “Learn To Fly.”
The band also debuted several songs, including “Dear Rosemary,” “White Limo,” and “Back and Forth.” The latter which may end up as the title of their seventh album, band frontman Dave Grohl told the crowd.
On one new song, presumably called “I Should Have Known,” Grohl was joined on stage by former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic, who reportedly plays accordion on the new album.
The album, produced by Butch Vig (Nirvana’s “Nevermind”) in Grohl’s home studio, marks the follow-up to 2007′s “Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace.”

The Presence of Tom Provost
By Madelyn Ritrosky
We enjoyed being in the presence of filmmaker Tom Provost at Heartland’s Closing Night event, but we also enjoyed his film, The Presence.
I like the title. It’s rather understated and vague, in a deliberate, ghostly sort of way – just like the film. And just like the characters, who are few. In addition to Mira Sorvino’s lead, the woman who arrives to write, and Shane West, an isolated spirit, another strong presence structures the film’s mise-en-scene, the house. It’s an old, lonely, lakeside house surrounded only by woods.
Tom originally planned the film for a cabin in Canada but lost that location. Two years went by before he finally found an historic home at the base of Mt. Hood in Oregon. He noted that because it is in Mt. Hood National Forest, they were allowed only 30 people on set at a time.
As film theorists and filmmakers tend to assert, film as an artistic medium is first and foremost a visual medium. Tom has created a film that utilizes that visual orientation to tell an intriguing story – all the more intriguing because ambiguous characters and events structure the story.
It was a delight to watch this spooky movie with 11-year-old Jared, who is just old enough to appreciate this very visual, brooding mystery – without any overt violence. It was also a delight to meet and talk with writer-director Tom Provost.

Zuiker sets CBS, CW projects
‘CSI’ creator focuses on character-driven shows
By Cynthia Littleton
Anthony Zuiker

Anthony Zuiker’s Dare to Pass shingle is in full pilot-season battle mode, fielding three dramas for CBS and one for CW.
Zuiker, creator and exec producer of the Eye’s “CSI” franchise, has no illusions about how hard it’s going to be to land a new drama on CBS next fall given how well the network is doing with this season’s frosh shows. CW is also in pretty good shape, with fall newbies “Nikita” and “Hellcats” looking on track for soph renewals.
“There are probably not going to be a lot of slots open, but we’re working on great characters and we’ll see if we can get lucky,” Zuiker said.
Zuiker’s TV development is flowing through Dare to Pass’ pact with CBS Television Studios. It’s the company’s second go-round with pilot development.
This time last year, Matt Weinberg had just joined the company as production prexy. This year, the two “have worked out a pretty great rhythm on the development process,” Zuiker said.
Beyond the four traditional dramas in the works, Zuiker continues to break the TV-Internet mold with his creepy villain Sqweegel, born in the “Level 26″ interactive novel series that Zuiker pens for publisher Dutton.
The Sqweegel character appeared in the Oct. 14 episode of “CSI,” just as the second installment of the series, “Level 26: Dark Prophecy,” debuted.
The Internet-based components of “Prophecy” promoted his appearance in the “CSI” seg, which led to a double-digit gain in younger demos for that episode.
Sqweegel is likely to make a return visit in the “CSI” finale. Zuiker is also developing a horror feature based on Sqweegel and a crime drama for cable based on the “Level 26″ series.
“Now that we’ve begun to build the (‘Level 26′) brand, we’re looking at other outlets for it,” Zuiker said. “It’s been exciting to see that we can really spin off characters to have life in other media.”
On the pilot front, Zuiker emphasizes that all four projects, now in the script stage, are heavily rooted in character drama built on sturdy procedural foundations. Zuiker learned an important lesson a few years ago when he fielded a pilot, “The Man,” for CBS that did not go the distance. “I put concept over character,” he said.
Not long after “Man” was rejected, Zuiker had a chance meeting with the prolific showrunner Stephen J. Cannell at an awards fete. After telling Cannell of his disappointment with “Man,” Zuiker recalled, the elder advised the younger: “Just remember, always put character over concept.”
Dare to Pass’ “Detail” for CBS is loosely inspired by real-life private security expert Kim-Maree Penn, co-founder of L.A.-based Signal 8 Security. Series will have classic procedural elements a la “the high-risk client of the week,” Zuiker said, but it will also dive deep into Penn’s character. Producer David Kline brought the project to the company.
Sarah Thorp (“The Bounty Hunter”) has penned the script and will exec produce with Zuiker. Weinberg is a co-exec producer on all Dare to Pass projects.
“Desperado” is an attempt at depicting “cowboy justice” as dispensed by an earnest lawman in a small town outside San Antonio. The inspiration came to Zuiker while he was listening to the Eagles’ song of the same name on his daily five-mile, early-ayem walk. Kyle Ward (“Kane and Lynch”) has penned the script and will co-exec produce.
“We want to really give it that Texas flavor,” Zuiker said. “We want it to be a kick-ass, have-fun show that also looks at how this small town’s world is converging with (big city) San Antonio.”
“Treadstone” is based on the secretive agency of spies that has appeared in several Robert Ludlum novels, including the Jason Bourne series. John Glenn (“Eagle Eye”) is writing and exec producing with Zuiker, Ben Smith and Jeffrey Weiner of Captive Entertainment.
Zuiker had been looking to do a spy project for some time but hadn’t found the right framework until the Ludlum concept pointed in the direction of “citizen spies” who hold down everyday jobs and blend in with their communities. The sensational bust last June of ten alleged Russian spies who were living nondescript lives in the U.S. added heat to the project at CBS.
For CW, “Spirit” hails from veteran fantasy drama scribe Jesse Alexander (“Heroes,” “Lost”), who brought the project to Zuiker. It revolves around three young women at a startup company; Zuiker describes the concept as ” ‘CSI’ meets ‘Paranormal Activity’ ” with a dash of “Charmed.” Alexander exec produces with Zuiker.
Zuiker is repped by CAA, Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Morris Yorn.

Brittany just posted on her site Digital Airwaves some “secrets” that executive producer Craig Silverstain revealed about Nikita! Something sounds really interesting!

Fittingly for a spy show, information about Nikita is hard to come by. However, executive producer Craig Silverstein has let slip a few tidbits that fans will no doubt be excited to hear.

Most of them involve Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca), who will soon no longer have to spend all her time climbing around in vents. According to Silverstein, like Thom (Ashton Holmes) before her, Alex will eventually become a full-fledged Division operative. “It will come at a terrible cost,” he warns in a chat with EW.com, but Alex will get her own apartment, an expanded wardrobe, and car. As a result, she’s also getting a new potential love interest across the hall. Starting in the January 27 episode, Thad Luckenbill – who previously fell for Fonseca when both were on The Young and the Restless – will pop up. No word on what this means for Thom’s chances with Alex.

The show will also continue peeling back the layers of Nikita herself (Maggie Q), including answering that burning question about where she gets all of her money. “It may not be as much as you think,” Silverstein teases. He adds that Nikita and Michael’s (Shane West) currently broken relationship will be on the way to being mended. “Nikita and Michael’s relationship will take another turn, bringing them closer in an unexpected way.” That’s not all that surprising, but what is is what follows: his comment that someone on the show will finally have sex. Let the wild speculation as to whom begin.

Personally, I’d rather see Michael and Nikita’s relationship continue its slow burn, rather than see them jump in bed together. It would seem to be cheating the character development that the show has crafted so well over the first part of the season. It would seem more like something we’d see on Gossip Girl, which is a show Nikita fans definitely don’t want to emulate. So who’s going to be the lucky couple? It could be Alex and her new object of desire. Or it could even be people we don’t know. You know how producers love to tease. But either way, it looks like Nikita is going to keep piling the twists on, right until the very end.
