In the 2003 film “Cheaper by the Dozen” — a remake of the classic 1950s film of the same name — the Baker family moved their 12 children into their new home and into our hearts. However, with 15 years gone by, you can’t help but wonder where all members of the Baker dozen have gone. Whether they’re still in the industry or not, here’s what all Baker kids have been up to.
Even before starring as Nora, the eldest of the Baker family, Piper already secured acting credits so it comes to no surprise that she continues reeling in credits today. In addition to adding to her already-lengthy list of roles, Perabo uses her celebrity status to advocate for gun control and feminism, among many other causes.

'Father of the Bride': Steve Martin and Kimberly Williams. Top Five Father's Day Movies? From giant Gregory Peck to tyrant John Gielgud What would be the Top Five Father's Day movies ever made? Well, there have been countless films about fathers and/or featuring fathers of various sizes, shapes, and inclinations. In terms of quality, these range from the amusing – e.g., the 1950 version of Cheaper by the Dozen; the Oscar-nominated The Grandfather – to the nauseating – e.g., the 1950 version of Father of the Bride; its atrocious sequel, Father's Little Dividend. Although I'm unable to come up with the absolute Top Five Father's Day Movies – or rather, just plain Father Movies – ever made, below are the first five (actually six, including a remake) "quality" patriarch-centered films that come to mind. Now, the fathers portrayed in these films aren't all heroic, loving, and/or saintly paternal figures. Several are...

I wish I could have just focused on the story that was playing out in these episodes, but I found myself very distracted by the horrible hairstyles of both Christian and Syed. First of all, John Partridge is a very good looking man, but he’s not 21 anymore and those brassy highlights just don’t work for him. Though, to be fair, they are in Christian’s character to do such a thing.
Still, they come off as an unfortunate attempt to hold on to your youth and such an attractive mature fella as Partridge need not do such things, Imo. Leave these bad hair choices to the twinks and the club kids, shall we? As for Marc Elliot, a trip to the barber is in order for a much needed trim. I usually don’t comment on such things, but like I said,...

Previously we posted Fox's press release detailing the shows the network would be bringing to Comic Con (July 21-25), as well as details about the various panels.

It looks like WB will be pushing its new CW show Nikita this year, with a special screening to be held on Wednesday, July 21 (otherwise known as "Preview Night"). I've seen Nikita (more on that in a future review) and the question is whether it's worth your time. Well, I liked the show. A lot, actually.

Think the Cartoon Network only shows cartoons? Think again. This Sunday, the network known for airing exclusively animated fare is launching its first live-action series, "Unnatural History." Momlogic got to chat with the star of the show, Kevin G. Schmidt (from "Cheaper by the Dozen"), to find out how he got his start in acting and how he made the leap from chubby sidekick to leading man.
momlogic: Tell us about "Unnatural History." What's it all about?
Kevin G. Schmidt: It's a live-action show on a cartoon network ... go figure. It's created by Mike Werb, the guy who did "Mask," "Curious George" and "Tomb Raider." I play Henry Griffith, a kid who has lived all over the world because of his anthropologist parents. He ends up with these amazing skills. They send me to live with my uncle in Washington, D.C., and I spend my time unraveling mysteries at the national museum,...

What would the old-time soap manufacturers who created the soap opera think of this newfangled thing called "the internet"? ABC is going to try to answer that question by airing a 10-episode web series that asks the question "what if characters from the three ABC Daytime series; General Hospital, All My Children, and One Live to Live; crossed over into each others series and interacted with one another?" Beginning this July, this is exactly what is going to happen. Directed by One Life to Live executive producer Frank Valentini and airing on Soapnet.com and ABC.com, shorter versions of the episodes will also air on ABC and SOAPnet. This will be an interesting experiment on whether this will promote click-through to the longer episodes online. The soap opera fan community has traditionally been extremely open to web series. The 1st Annual Indie Soap Awards honored several web dramas including Compulsions,...

Cartoon Network has picked up its first two original scripted live-action series: "Tower Prep" and "Unnatural History."
The cable network has ordered 13 episodes of each hourlong show, with production slated to begin in January.
Cartoon Network's transition from all-animated fare to a new emphasis on live-action series and movies was front and center during its upfront presentation in March, when "Tower Prep" (then called "Prepped") and "History" were announced as the network's first live-action scripted pilots.
"These new series will offer our viewers a type of action-packed event entertainment not found anywhere else," said Rob Sorcher, chief content officer at Cartoon.
Action thriller "Tower Prep" centers on a rebellious teen (Drew Van Acker) who is trapped at a mysterious prep school for students with "unique potential." Paul Dini is the writer-executive producer on the project from Cartoon Network Studios and Dolphin Entertainment.

The cable network has ordered 13 episodes of each hourlong show, with production slated to begin in January.
Cartoon Network's transition from all-animated fare to a new emphasis on live-action series and movies was front and center during its upfront presentation in March, when "Tower Prep" (then called "Prepped") and "History" were announced as the network's first live-action scripted pilots.

They donated a walk-on role to be auctioned off at the 2008 Children at Heart Gala and Celebrity Auction which benefits the Chabad's Children of Chernobyl Charity.

The hit comedy web series returned for a second season on KoldCast TV in June, with hapless video blogger Paul (Zack Bennett) dealing with his antagonizing roommates Clyde (Wes Whitworth) and Justin (Kevin G.
