Brothers & Sisters Round Table: "Pregnant Pause"

30 November 2009 9:49 AM, PST | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »

As we noted earlier in our review of "Pregnant Pause," Brothers & Sisters is building up to the Rebecca-Justin nuptials with a series of potentially damaging developments.

It's also delivering great lines and Walker family moments week after week.

Below, our staff members analyze and discuss some of last night's developments in our Brothers & Sisters Round Table. Here's our panel's take on some key topics:

1. What was your favorite Brothers & Sisters quote from the episode?

The Barnacle: Kevin, nonchalantly to Sarah: "I’m not at work. I’m waiting for my husband to finish masturbating." Even funnier? Her basically not batting an eye.

Dr. Shepherd: Robert saying that he threw Justin "the gayest bachelor party ever." That sounds negative, but when married gay men dominate the conversation with an argument over whose sperm should be given to their surrogate, it's literally true!

M.L. House: Kitty: "We always have milk! The North Ridge Earthquake, »

'Brothers & Sisters' recap: Sweet little lies, plus the world's gayest bachelor party!

30 November 2009 8:46 AM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

There was so much done right in this episode (i.e. Saul saying it would be weeks until the investigators knew what happened in WineGate 2009, so we knew we wouldn't be seeing Ryan!) that we're going to forgive the writers for bringing Tommy back next week for "the emotional episode of the season." (What do you think that means? I'm guessing Rebecca starts to miscarry at the wedding, and it's a cliffhanger.) Let's dive in. We had the return of the popular Walker Sibling Phone Tree™ after Kitty walked in on Nora and Simon having relations in the shower and, »

"Everything else is pure theory": What-if Movies

13 November 2009 9:36 AM, PST | ifc.com | See recent IFC news »

A coin flip splits the new movie "Uncertainty" in two. That's how a young couple (played by Lynn Collins and Joseph Gordon-Levitt) at a turning point in their relationship decide which way to go on the Brooklyn Bridge. Who picks heads over tails ultimately isn't important, because the film follows both paths -- in one storyline, the two head to Manhattan, find a cell phone in a cab and become embroiled in a thriller, while in the other, they go to a family barbecue in Brooklyn and navigate more personal dramas. Which reality is the "real" one? The title should give you a clue.

"Uncertainty"'s not the first film to explore those what-if musings we've all indulged in, the ones that every holiday season drive George Bailey to an angelic vision of what the world would be like if he'd never existed. But it is one of a select »

Marini: 'I thought I'd faint on Brothers'

9 November 2009 1:16 PM, PST | digitalspy | See recent digitalspy news »

Gilles Marini has confessed that he was nervous during his first day on the set of Brothers & Sisters. The former Dancing With The Stars contestant, who was cast as painter Luc Laurent on the popular ABC show in May, will appear in four additional episodes throughout the forthcoming season. He was initially brought aboard as a romantic interest for Sarah Walker (Rachel Griffiths) for a five-episode story arc, but has been asked to return during the show's fourth year, the Los Angeles Times reports. The 33-year-old said: "There was the table read at first. I was completely unnerved. I was sweating. I looked around, and there was Rob Lowe, Sally Field. (more) »

Gilles Marini on 'Brothers and Sisters': Luc Marrying Sarah "Would Be Awesome"

8 November 2009 10:00 PM, PST | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »

The storyline on Brothers and Sisters has been getting its much-needed boost thanks to Gilles Marini.  Sometimes, even the main plot of Kitty's cancer isn't enough to keep the show going.  Instead, it's the Sarah (Rachel Griffiths) and Luc romance that's storming up the series' ratings.

Actor Gilles Marini has hinted to Entertainment Weekly that he's currently enjoying his appearance on the ABC show, and, like the fans, hopes to stay there longer.  "I'm on Brothers and Sisters, you know?" he said.  "It can't get better than that.  Everyone there is acting royalty.  It's been an American Dream, the whole nine yards."

Rachel Griffiths Hoping Three Kids Enjoy a ‘Free Range’ Childhood

6 November 2009 3:00 PM, PST | People - CelebrityBabies | See recent People - CelebrityBabies news »

Although she garnered an Academy Award nomination for her role in 1998’s Hilary and Jackie, Rachel Griffiths — currently starring in ABC’s Brothers & Sisters — says that television work suits her just fine. “I have a nice balance,” she notes in the November issue of Cookie magazine.

The ability to bring new baby Clementine Grace, 4 months, to work helps. “[Clem is there about] “half the time, depending on how my days are,” she adds.

On those days when her family of five — which includes son Banjo Patrick, 6 this month, daughter Adelaide Rose, 4, and her artist husband Andrew Taylor — are together at their Santa Monica home, »

The Name Game: Down With Nouns

30 October 2009 1:00 PM, PDT | People - CelebrityBabies | See recent People - CelebrityBabies news »

Thinking outside the box when it comes to naming babies goes part and parcel with being a celebrity, and in their search to come up with the perfect moniker some have clearly pushed that envelope more than others. According to nameberry.com co-founder Linda Rosenkrantz, word names are an increasingly popular way to do just that.

“When looking for a really unusual baby name, many celebrities have started to search the dictionary for a noun or adjective that will define their child, choosing words that have rarely, if ever been used before as people-names,” she explains.

Leno Weekly: Rod Stewart, Rainn Wilson, Martha Stewart & more!

23 October 2009 9:14 PM, PDT | AOL - TVSquad | See recent AOL - TVSquad news »

Every show has an off-week. Unfortunately, for Jay Leno when he has an off-week, it takes up five hours worth of our time. Almost every guest was less than entertaining, and even most of the comedy bits missed this week. Luckily, there were some redeeming moments throughout, most of which I've included right here for you. See, I just saved you five hours of time.

With Rachel Griffiths appearing this week, it appears that ABC's ban on their actors appearing on Leno's show may have finally been lifted. Unfortunately, she couldn't bring along a clip of Brothers & Sisters, so I guess they're still feeling a little sour. Or NBC doesn't want to promote a competing network's show too much.

Steve Granitz/WireImage

Australian-born actress Rachel Griffiths is known for breaking the mold when it comes to naming her children, but she also broke with tradition somewhat with daughter Clementine Grace, 4 months.

“Adelaide is the capital of South Australia,” she explains of daughter Adelaide Rose, 4, while son Banjo Patrick, 5 ½, is named after “our national poet.” The 40-year-old Brothers & Sisters star notes during a recent appearance on The Jay Leno Show,

“Clementine is my first American name.”

Rachel went on to share that she was “traumatized” by the paparazzi after Adelaide’s birth, when she was snapped leaving the hospital. “They »

Oh, Baby! Who's Pregnant on Brothers & Sisters?

21 October 2009 3:02 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Finally, some happy tears to be shed on ABC's Brothers & Sisters. Sources tell me that along with a wedding, an extended hot French romance (Gilles Marini, anyone?) and a homecoming for Balthazar Getty and his so-much-better half Sarah Jane Morris, a huge pregnancy surprise is in the works. So who is the mama to be? I can rule out one Walker for you: It's not Sally Field. I know...Now you're really thrown! And though Kevin and Scotty will move forward with their surrogacy plans, this has nothing to do with that. More clues: Gilles Marini's 12-pack abs were just awarded an extra four episodes, slated to begin in January. So could Sara (Rachel Griffiths) have a... »

Luc the Lover Might Stay Longer on 'Brothers and Sisters'

19 October 2009 11:00 PM, PDT | buddytv.com | See recent BuddyTV news »

It sounds as though romance is going to be a staple on this season of Brothers and Sisters.  There was the engagement of Rebecca (Emily VanCamp) to Justin (Dave Annable), then there's Robert (Rob Lowe) patching things up with Kitty (Calista Flockhart).  Now, with Sarah (Rachel Griffiths) coming home from France, there's another relationship on the rise.

On his TV Guide interview, Gilles Marini, who was a guest-star on the last episode "From France with Love" hinted that his appearances on Brothers and Sisters may be more than expected.  He first appeared as a suitor of Sarah's, but the actor revealed that this could simply "be more than a fling" for the two of them.
