There’s no doubt that Robert Downey Jr is one of the most successful and one of the most decorated film stars that this generation has witnessed. However, even the biggest of stars have made wrong decisions in their career that leave a black spot, that couldn’t get rid of. Downey Jr was no exception, as in his career,...

Warning: If you’ve yet to watch Nikita‘s Season 3 finale, avert your eyes now. Everyone else, read on…

Nikita is a wanted woman.

The CW’s Nikita on Friday wrapped its third season with a twist no one saw coming: In order to save her loved ones — Michael included — from Amanda, The Shop and now even the U.S. government, our leading lady went on the run. Without warning (and without her engagement ring), Nikita high-tailed it out of town after being publicly framed by Amanda for assassinating the “President.” (The real one, unbeknownst to the titular character, is still alive,...

Though The CW's "Cult" likely won't debut until 2013, the cast and crew is already hard at work shooting the new mystery series up in Vancouver. The show stars Matt Davis as Jeff Sefton, a reporter whose brother goes missing after becoming way too deeply invested in the intense fandom of a CW show. (Kinda makes you want to reconsider your viewing habits, no?)

He teams up with Skye Yarrow (played by "Melrose Place" hottie Jessica Lucas), a researcher who works for the TV show who believes the show is becoming dangerous to its viewers.

Zap2it has exclusively learned that Obba Babatundé and Erica Gimpel have been cast as Yarrow's parents. Usually capable and even-keeled, the devoted parents grow distraught as their daughter gets more involved with the disturbing underworld inhabited by the show's fans.

Babatundé has a long and impressive resume, spanning television and film alike. He had a...

February is a wonderful month. There is the Super Bowl for sports fans. The Grammy Award for music aficionados. The Oscars for film buffs. And sweeps season for TV fanatics. Sweeps, as it is commonly referred to, is a month when the Nielsen Company aggregates the viewing data for that particular month and sends it to the television networks, which then use the information to make decisions concerning advertising. The higher the show scores, the happier the network is which may improve the chances of a show being renewed. As a result, producers and writers will typically save their best stories and guest stars for sweeps month to lure in more viewers. Alternate universes are created, characters fall in love, and cliffhangers become the norm. Occasionally, some shows try to deliver too much oomph and inadvertently create an unpleasant mess. One show that is consistently delivering spectacular episodes this month...

Note: Do not read on if you have not seen Season 2, Episode 14 of The CW's "Nikita," entitled, "Rogue."

Was this week's taut, labyrinthine installment of "Nikita" the standout of Season 2 so far? Sorry, "Fair Trade," I think "Rogue" just usurped your position at the top of the pile, as the episode combined all the best elements of our favorite spy drama: juicy backstory, dastardly double-crossing, well-paced plotting and one hell of a curveball ending. Kudos to Carlos Coto for constructing such an engaging hour, in which we learned, once and for all, that "there are no coincidences."

The revelations of the week certainly lent credence to some fans' speculation that Percy and Nikita might somehow be related, and I'm sure conspiracy theorists latched on to his "you wanted daddy's attention, you got it," line in particular. It's obvious that the pair are locked on a collision course now that Percy is free,...

Last week, the game changed for all the different teams on Nikita. This week, on "Rogue." we got a glimpse of what's to come as a result.

Nikita, Michael and Birkhoff are still working with Alex, who is their inside connection to Division. They also have an ally in Senator Pierce, who was the sole survivor of a "terrorist" plot against our country. And, presumably, that arrangement includes Sean too.

Amanda has sole control over Division now, but hasn't launched any missions since going rogue from Oversight. According to Alex, she hasn't done anything except strut around "like she won Top Model."

Percy's out on his own, having gone rogue with Roan and his Guardian. It was odd to see Percy in the field with a gun and right in the heart of the action. First up, Percy and Roan killed a Newark police detective to draw out Nikita. And it worked.
