Eastwick

[Vgerland]

Eastwick looks like it's going to be a really fun show. I love the way they're teasing us by not showing the male lead in the commercials. I cheated and went to the network page and found out he is played by Paul Gross.

Anyone else looking forward to this show?

 

[TheComicbookKid]

If it's as cheesy bad as Charmed then I might give it a go. I like that red-head one from Eureka.

 

[Matt.S99]

I was just gonna make a thread on this.

I enjoy the movie, so I might give it a go, though it looks more like a ''chick show''.

I want to see the pilot for the 2002 version as well, with Marcia Cross.

 

[TheComicbookKid]

It's okay so far. Nothing horrible or great.

I have had a crush on Lindsay Price since 90210 so I'll watch til it's cancelled.

 

[Sawyer]

I cant say I'm all that interested in Charmed meets Desperate Housewives.

Pass.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

It was okay. Next week looks decent.

''Don't wave at my murderer!"

 

[SuperT]

The premiere was pretty mediocre. Not horrible, but definitely not amazing, but this show definitely has potential.

I really do think this show would have been served better if it was actually on HBO or Showtime instead of ABC.

 

[Mister J]

I'll watch pretty much anything for Lindsay Price. For a while, at least. This could be fun, depending on how it's handled. I'm interested enough for next week.

 

[Nightwing 52]

Lindsay Price is so hot. That is all.

 

[Matt.S99]

I quite liked it. Romijn suprised me actually. She was better than I expected.

 

[Ghostvirus]

I watched it for the Chick that was on Eureka recently. I like how they brought back the crazy lady from the movie. That was cool. & this new D has some Nicholson in him which is cool. This show could either go down hill or up. It will be fascinating to see which way it goes.

I am guessing down. Simply because I wouldn't be surprised if the producers for the writers to make it more like Desperate Housewives.

 

[Paroxysm]

Deperate House Witches? No Thanks!

 

[terry78]

Lindsay Price being on this show already has sealed its cancellation fate. She's like poison.

 

[SuperT]

If this show goes more Buffy/Charmed instead of Despearate Housewives with magic, it could be a real hit.

Although it's ABC, so they'll try and make it as Desperate Housewifey as possible. Another show with good potential screwed up by another dumb network.

 

[Mister J]

The Desperate Housewives stuff has got to wane. I really couldn't care less about any of the women's domestic situations. More focus on the town's past, Daryl and the hocus pocus.

...and Lindsay Price wearing tight ****.

 

[SuperT]

Showing their current domestic situations is good because it helps shape their characters and where their powers take them, but too much of it and it'll just become another evening drama like Desperate Housewives, Greys, or Brothers & Sisters.

I do agree with you about the town history, they need to do way more with that!

 

[Primal Slayer]

The premire was ok but I hope the episodes get better. Though I did like how they eluded to the fact that there were witches in the town before the current 3 basically leaving the movie intact as part of its history.

 

[Matt.S99]

If this show goes more Buffy/Charmed instead of Despearate Housewives with magic, it could be a real hit.

Although it's ABC, so they'll try and make it as Desperate Housewifey as possible. Another show with good potential screwed up by another dumb network.

Im a fan of this show and even I can say it has a bit of a DHW feel. To me its a mix of Charmed and DHW.

 

[Captain_BluTac]

Anyone still watching this show? To me it seems to be getting stronger and stronger. My only complaint is how long it's taking the women to get over their scepticism considering that they have all used their abilities on purpose and they did the whole pox spell thing.

 

[TheComicbookKid]

It's been pretty good. Still not sure this is multiple season material in the first place, but it's watchable. Sara Rue is hot!

Exclusive Interview With Johann Urb
ThinkMcflyThink.com

If you didn't remember Johann Urb from CW's television drama "The Mountain" you certainly should know who he is now. He was born in Estonia, and grew up in Finland, but Johann is now taking Hollywood by storm. The young actor has enjoyed a more than solid 2009, playing the role of nice guy extraordinaire in the form of Will St. David on television series "Eastwick" and stalwart pilot Sasha in the blockbuster film "2012". The former model, has the looks and acting chops to further an already successful career in film and television. Like everybody else, ThinkMcflyThink.com has taken notice. Johann took the time to answer some of our questions in a TMT exclusive interview.

​

Loved your character on “Eastwick”, Will St. David. You had the whole “Clark Kent” thing down. What will you miss most about working with that particular cast and crew?

I really enjoyed my cast mates and the crew. It was a really fun set and there were very talented people.

Will St. David, is the nicest guy you could ever meet. Did you ever find yourself wanting some magical powers to play with so you could unleash some evil?

Yes! I would have loved to have had some magical stuff going for me, but I guess my magic was in being the nicest dude alive, ever.

First spotted you on the CW’s “The Mountain”, but you have had a good amount of television experience, did you feel like a veteran on the set of “Eastwick”?

Yes, it definitely feels like home being on set. I love it. I hope I get to do it all the time! I was very green when doing “The Mountain”.


In “Eastwick” you were on the set of a faux New England town. Have you experienced the real New England?


Yes, I love New England in the summer.


“2012” blew my hair back. What was it like being involved in such a big budget film when compared to television?

Amazing! I love big action movies and it was an incredible experience from beginning to end. If I only got to do big action movies from now on, I’d be a happy dude.

You acted as producer and were an actor in “Pornstar”, what is the status of this film?

It should hit the shelves pretty soon. There are some minor finishing touches and changes that need to be tended to.

I already alluded to it above, you have a very heroic look to you. Would you be interested in playing a superhero on the big screen?

Hell yes! I can’t wait!

You’re on a plane heading out of the country to shoot a film, how would you pass the time?

I’d be reading a book, hopefully one of those that you can’t put down, like “Altered Carbon” or “The Electric Church”. I’d also catch up on some movies.


I know your uncle is a famous actor in Estonia. Did he share any tricks of the trade with you

Nope. He’s kept all the tricks to himself. I’ve had to learn it the hard way.


If I were to head to Eastern Europe, what tips would you give me so I could make an attempt to fit in?

Fit in? You can’t unless you learn the language and that changes every couple of hundred miles. Every country is very difference and rich in culture so don’t blend, absorb.


Any upcoming projects you want to share with your fans?

I’m working on an episode of “100 Questions”, a new sitcom on NBC, right now. I don’t know when that is going to air but it’s very funny stuff! And keep your eyes peeled for “Pornstar” and if you haven’t seen it yet, “Strictly Sexual” is an amazing powerful-beautiful-funny-touching film that I’m very proud of.

Johann seems geeked up about possibly playing a superhero on the big screen. I can see him playing a number of different characters from the pages of DC or Marvel but the obvious connection at this point would be Superman and his alter ego Clark Kent. I had one of our resident TMT artists, who goes by the name of Dark B, construct a quick photo manipulation of what Johann might look like as mild mannered reporter Clark Kent.
