Starz drops the stylish new poster for the summer return of 1950s-set series, “Magic City,” Betty White and the cast of “Hot In Cleveland” prep for a live Season 4 premiere and new details on Seth Meyers’ animated series for Hulu in AccessHollywood.com’s roundup of TV news.
“Magic City” Season 2 Poster Revealed! Starz just dropped the (aqua-toned) key art for Season 2 of its sexy series “Magic City.” The new poster features Jeffrey Dean Morgan as hotelier Ike Evans. Although he looks carefree in the image, cruising in Ray Bans with the convertible top down, Ike actually ended up in the slammer at the end of the first season, accused of murder. But while the image hints he’ll be getting out of lockup, trouble is on the way courtesy of Chicago mobster Sy Berman, played by James Caan. “Sy causes more problems for Ike than not, but I think to have someone like Jimmy on our show made us a better show, and certainly made my life a lot more entertaining,” Jeffrey told AccessHollywood.com, as he sat alongside James in this amusing interview. “And to work with him was a joy.” “Magic City” returns for Season 2 on June 14 at 9 PM on Starz.
“Hot In Cleveland” Spices Things Up For Season 4 Premiere: Betty White and the “Hot In Cleveland” gang are taking a page out of the “30 Rock” handbook by going live. The TV Land series, which also stars Valerie Bertinelli, the sassy Wendy Malick and Jane Leeves, will kick off its fourth season with a live episode (where anything can go wrong, or hilariously right) on June 19 at 10 PM ET. Joe Keenan (“Frasier,” “Desperate Housewives”) is penning the script and TV Land told Access fans should look out for secret “helpers” throughout the night!
