Starring Jason Ralph (Quentin Coldwater), Stella Maeve (Julia), Hale Appleman (Eliot), Arjun Gupta (Penny) and Summer Bishil (Margo), The Magicians is based on Lev Grossman’s best-selling novels. The series centers on Quentin, a brilliant grad student chosen to attend Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, a secret upstate New York university specializing in magic. He and his 20-something friends soon discover that the magical fantasy world they read about as children is all too real – and poses grave danger to humanity.

ABC Family's Melissa & Joey is a sitcom that follows Mel (Melissa Joan Hart), a politician who ends up taking care of her neice and nephew after her sister goes to prison and her brother-in-law takes off. She is helped by Joe (Joseph Lawrence), the family's manny.

Taylor Spreitler stars as Lennox Scanlon, Mel's neice.

The actress talked to the media earlier in the week about her work on the show and the series finale which airs tomorrow night on ABC Family.
