31 March 2013 3:30 PM, PDT
If Paul Jolley ran things on American Idol, his Season 12 trajectory might have looked and sounded very different.
The recently ejected ninth-place finisher sat down for an Idology interview where he discussed a possible solution to the show’s sometimes tired theme weeks, the Bon Jovi song he’d prefered to have tackled instead of Lonestar’s “Amazed,” and his feelings on rival Lazaro Arbos covering the same Keith Urban track he’d picked in the Season 12 Vegas Rounds.

Ratings: Happy Endings Down in Friday Debut
30 March 2013 9:52 AM, PDT
ABC’s Happy Endings christened its new time slot with demo numbers that were below its most recent Tuesday broadcasts and well shy of what Tim Allen and Reba McEntire were doing in Friday’s opening hour.

A weekly feature in which we spotlight shining stars
The Performer | Norman Reedus
The Show | The Walking Dead
The Episode | “This Sorrowful Life”
The Airdate | March 24, 2013
The Performance | People love Daryl for a lotta reasons. He’s hot. He’s cool. He’s a badass. He’s no-bs. But, beneath all of those lies the real reason the that character is so adored: He’s vulnerable.
