NEWS: LOGOtv Daytime Soap on Vine, Maurice Benard's Son on DAYS, B&B Meet & Greet

LOGOtv is rolling out a daytime soap on micro-video platform Vine
THE VINES OF SAUVIGNON BLANC cast includes Sue Galloway from 30 Rock, Stephen Guarino from HAPPY ENDINGS and Reichen Lemkuhl from AMAZING RACE and tragic reality TV series THE A-LIST: NEW YORK. The episodes premiere at 1 p.m. ET every weekday.

The mini-series follows Luke Eleganza, owner of "Eleganza Winery," who just found out he has two minutes and six seconds to live. Luke has an evil twin brother who stands to inherit his vineyards and needs to find a husband/heir before his brother ruins it all. It's campy, to-the-point and brilliant.

Scary Movie: The Fear Factor of MAD MEN's Season Six
In the end—at least for now—it was not a Manson-style murder, a violent home invasion, a riot or an office bloodbath that befell MAD MEN last Sunday. It was Ken Cosgrove getting unceremoniously Cheneyed in the face by a trigger-happy GM executive and surviving to tell the tale, wearing the eyepatch prefigured by Stan’s poster of Moshe Dayan.

And yet it came in the penultimate episode of a season that has been overhung with a sense of dread and menace, and–unusually even in the oxygen-rich atmosphere of MAD MEN speculation–distinguished by especially elaborate fan theories about what horrible things the show was hinting at. Even before the season started, there were portents of danger and crime; see the season-debut poster in which NYC beat cops figured prominently.

Then they discover that Lauren went off with a stranger. Tanya is shocked and out of her mind with worry. It's any mother's worst nightmare!"

Heather Locklear says the new boss on FRANKLIN & BASH is Amanda Woodward 2.0

Texas School Finance Trial Goes For Round Two
State district court Judge John Dietz likened the state's school finance case to the soap opera As The World Turns when he opened Wednesday's hearing on whether to reconsider evidence in the trial that concluded in February.
He drew the comparison not because of the trial's drama but because of its longevity.

"There were 13,858 episodes of AS THE WORLD TURNS and we are getting pretty close," Dietz said.
