During the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, Bob Gale had a hand in writing and producing a trifecta of films which continue to have cult followings to this day: “I Wanna Hold Your Hand,” “1941,” and “Used Cars.” Those three films are only a minor career blip, however, when compared to his next three: the “Back to the Future” trilogy. It may make you feel old to realize that the first “Future” film was released two and a half decades ago, but the good news is that you’ll find yourself feeling young again as soon as you pop in the…

People might not have stopped taking showers altogether after the 1960 premiere of “Psycho,” but you can bet that everyone who’s ever seen it immediately feels their heart start to pound when they’re in the shower and hear someone enter the bathroom. Based on the novel by Robert Bloch, “Psycho” is, of course, the story of a boy who loves his mother just a little too much. Although, as it begins, we’re led to believe that the film is going to be more about Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), a young woman who’s just stolen a considerable sum of money from…

Jesse Ventura started out as a wrestler, evolved into an actor, and then turned heads by turning into a politician. Now, he’s the host of “Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura,” which has just kicked off its second season on truTV. Bullz-Eye had a chance to talk to Minnesota’s most bad-ass former governor (only possible competition: Knute Nelson) about the new season of his series, and in addition to the discussion about various conspiracies, you will probably not be surprised to find that he had a great deal to say about the state of the government. Jesse Ventura: Good morning, Will!…

If you don’t know Jim Breuer from his work on “Saturday Night Live,” where he played both Goat Boy and Joe Pesci, then you probably know him from his impeccable performance as a stoner in the ‘90s film classic “Half Baked.”If you don’t know him from either of those, though…or, for that matter, even if you do…then you really ought to pick up his new autobiography, “I’m Not High.” Breuer isn’t entirely thrilled with the title, which is why it has a relatively lengthy subtitle (“But I’ve Got a Lot of Crazy Stories about Life as a Goat Boy, a…

True story: Darius Rucker loves football. This fact will likely in no way affect your feelings on his music, nor is it probable that you will suddenly find new depth in the lyrics of your Hootie and the Blowfish albums, but, hey, maybe it means that you and he have something in common…and if you also happen to be a Miami Dolphins fan, then that’s something else. In addition to his new album, Charleston, SC 1966, which hits stores on October 12, Rucker also has a new website: End Zone Obsession, where he gives football fans the chance to square…

Being a lifetime resident of the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, I don’t generally get that many chances to secure interviews by playing the hometown card. When such an opportunity presents itself, however, you can bet that I jump on it. As soon as I heard that Skeet Ulrich had been cast as one of the leads in NBC’s latest addition to the “Law & Order” franchise – “Law & Order: Los Angeles” – I immediately remembered our previous conversation and the brief moment of bonding we shared over our connection to Chesapeake, VA: I’ve lived there virtually my entire…

The beauty of the TCA Press Tour is that it presents Bullz-Eye with the opportunity to speak with the cast members of some of the season’s new series as well as those who star in some of our returning favorites. Indeed, it’s such a tremendous opportunity that, when Premiere Week rolls around each fall, we end up with so many such conversations that we’re hard pressed to give them all their appropriate due on our homepage…and that’s why you’ve found yourself here. If you’re looking for the place to find all of Bullz-Eye’s interviews with some of your favorite faces…

I have not had what you’d call the best of luck when it comes to securing one-on-one time with Chevy Chase. In the summer of 2009, when the cast of NBC’s yet-to-premiere series, “Community,” was in attendance for the TCA Press Tour, it’s no surprise that everyone wanted to talk to Chevy. I was able to secure a few minutes to talk to everyone else in the cast individually at some point prior to the show making its debut, either during the network’s all-star party or on the phone after I returned home, but Chevy remained elusive. At the party,…

Ty Burrell is a busy man, thanks to his success as part of the ensemble of ABC’s “Modern Family,” but during ABC’s all-star party at the summer TCA tour, he was able to spare a few minutes to chat with me about that series as well as the show that brought him into Steve Levitan / Christopher Lloyd camp, “Back to You.” Burrell had actually been on site earlier in the day as a participant in a “Modern Family”-sponsored coffee hour, but as it proved impossible to get one-on-one interviews with any of the cast at that time, I figured…

Although the pilot for NBC’s sitcom, “Outsourced,” about an American businessman tasked with the job of running a call center in India that’s selling wacky novelty items, has met with a great deal of criticism from some parties, I for one thought it was a highly entertaining look at the culture clashes that would be inherent in such a situation. Yeah, I know, that probably sounds like I’m taking the whole thing too seriously, especially given that it’s a comedy, but since that’s exactly what the people who don’t like it are doing, I feel like I’m on safe ground.…
