Donald Trump returns with NBC's The Celebrity Apprentice, which is currently in its fifth installment, the twelfth in The Apprentice series overall. This season, eight celebrities compete, not for a job, but to raise money and awareness for their charities.

In the recent special three-hour episode, two celebrity contestants were eliminated - Debbie Gibson and Dee Snider.

Mr. Trump, along with the two recently eliminated contestants, recently talked to the digital media about their time on the show as well as their plans for the future.

On last week's episode of Grimm, Adalind and Captain Renard added a new weapon to their arsenal - the chocolate chip cookie. The tasty treat contained a Wesen love potion that piqued Hank's interest in Adalind and had an unfortunate side effect on the cookie-stealing Sgt. Wu.

This week, Scifi Vision spoke with actors Russell Horsnby (Hank) and Reggie Lee (Sgt. Wu) to get the lowdown on the poisoned pastry.

"That chocolate chip cookie had some magical wonderment in it," joked Hornsby. The result is "I'm falling deeper and deeper in love, and so we’re going to see Hank fall for Adelind Schade and they’re developing a relationship unbeknownst to Nick."

None of this is good news for Hank, said Hornsby. "I think there’s going to be some hairy situations between the two of them where Nick has to come to the aid of his partner because he’s in danger."

It's not good news for Sgt. Wu either. Remember when he ate the stuffing out of his couch cushion? Actor Reggie Lee told us "You'll see in the next few episodes how much more scenery I chew up."

"There’s a lot more to come, and I (do) more things. I literally chew more scenery."

Exclusive Interview with Rick Howland of Lost Girl

Lost Girl, which was recently acquired by Syfy, will be airing the season one finale next week, followed shortly by the season two premiere.

The series follows the character of Bo (Anna Silk), who discovers that she is not human, but Fae, a succubus to be exact. She must learn to control her powers while sidestepping the boundaries of the Light and Dark Fae by refusing to choose sides. She is joined by Dyson (Kris Holden-Ried), a detective, who is also Light Fae and happens to be a shifter, and her doctor, Lauren (Zoie Palmer), a human. The three of them form an interesting love triangle of sorts. Bo also gets help from her best friend Kenzie (Ksenia Solo), as well as the bartender Fitzpatrick "Trick" McCorrigan, played by Rick Howland, who is not only a Light Fae, but also quite powerful and mysterious.

Rick Howland recently talked to SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview about his role on Lost Girl.

Exclusive Interview with Jeremy LaLonde of Sex After Kids

Jeremy LaLonde is the writer and director of the upcoming independent film Sex After Kids, which is about how couples' relationships change after they have children.

LaLonde recently talked to Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview, as well as joined the Fandom Access podcast to talk about the project.

The idea for the film came to LaLonde in an unusual way. "It's something very near and dear to me. Also I was looking for an ensemble film to do and I literally saw an article in a magazine titled "Sex After Kids," and it just hit me really hard that no one that I knew of had done something this extensive with this topic, and it's an exciting topic that I think people will enjoy discussing after."

The film should appeal to many because it has such a broad potential audience. "It's such a big subject and everyone that has children has to deal with it."

The executive producers of the series, Hart Hanson and Stephen Nathan, recently talked to members of the digital press about Monday's episode, as well as the upcoming season.

Exclusive Interview with Jason Isaacs

Jason Isaacs is everywhere these days. Whether you know him as Lucius Malfoy from Harry Potter, or you've seen his face on a billboard recently advertising his new series, Awake, it's likely you've seen him. Isaacs is not new to the industry by any means. He's appeared in such films as Event Horizon, Armageddon, The Patriot, and more recently Abduction, as well as on television in The State Within, Brotherhood, and Case Histories.

Right now Isaacs can be seen back on television on the new NBC series, Awake. He stars as Detective Michael Britten, who has recently been in a car accident and as such lives in two realities. In the "green" reality, his son Rex survived the crash, and his wife Hannah died. He goes to sleep and when he wakes up in the "red" reality, his wife is with him, but they lost their son. Unwilling to accept either reality, Britten lives in both, not knowing which is real.

Living in both realities, Britten often gets clues in one that can help him solve cases in the other. Sometimes what he learns may be of a more personal nature and help him to understand something about his son or wife that he previously did not.

Earlier in the week Jason Isaacs talked to Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview about his new series, Awake, which airs Thursdays on NBC.

Renaissance woman Nicole Ritchie has a new job!

The fashion designer-actress-author-singer is a celebrity mentor on NBC’s new reality series Fashion Star. Each week, Nicole offers advice to 14 unknown designers as they pursue a serious prize: $6 million in orders from H&M, Macy’s and Saks Fifth Avenue.

“Being a mentor is something that's new for me,” says Nicole, “but a role that I take very seriously. It was a wonderful experience doing it.”

“I find this show to be very inspirational. It's always such a great feeling to watch people's dreams come true. And if I can help them be a part of that then that's something that I was right away on board for.”

Nicole’s own mentor, she tells Scifi Vision, “Has been my father. Actually both of my parents have always been ones to encourage me to be myself and stay true to myself and not fall into what other people want me to do.”

“And it is important not to copy other people's careers,” she adds, “but set the tone of who you want to be. And my father's always encouraged me to do that.”

Nicole launched her two fashion lines, Winter Kate and House of Harlow 1960, in 2009. What is the biggest lesson she’s learned? Be open to change.

“You have to be able to learn from your mistakes and grow and be open to criticism. And that is something that I talked to the designers about all through the season.”

Last week, Nicole spoke with us about Fashion Star, looking great on a budget, and her own fashion regrets.

Fashion Star airs at 10:00 pm on Tuesdays on NBC.

After a brief hiatus, Grimm is back this week with a new episode featuring Portland’s sexiest Hexenbiest, Adalind. From NBC:

After the grisly murder of a familiar shop owner, Nick joins forces with Monroe to help solve the murder. When the shop owner’s sister, Rosalee (guest star Bree Turner), comes to town, Nick thinks he may have found a new ally in the creature world. Elsewhere, Captain Renard enlists Adalind to cast a spell on Hank. Meanwhile, Sgt. Wu unwittingly becomes entangled in Adalind’s dastardly plan.

What NBC doesn’t mention is what’s up with Juliette? In the last few episodes she discovered an engagement ring stashed in Nick’s sock drawer, then was abducted by a crazy Dämonfeuer. It was a bit too much for her to handle, and she told Nick so.

So where does that leave their relationship?

Actress Bitsie Tulloch, who plays Juliette, recently shared her thoughts. “I think she is confused,” Bitsie told Scifi Vision, “extremely confused. She's worried, her mind is just constantly racing, trying to figure out what is going on with him.”
