The cast of Blue Bloods, where Leonard Goldberg was an executive producer for one of television’s top-rated shows, has begun sharing their grief online after hearing of his death today at age 85.
Tom Selleck, who plays Frank Reagan, the New York Police Commissioner, and patriarch of the Reagan clan, a multigenerational family of cops, sent out a statement on Goldberg.
“Leonard Goldberg was quite simply irreplaceable. As a creative force, as a boss, as a friend, as a husband, and a father,” Selleck told Deadline. “His unwavering commitment to our show inspired all of us to take to heart his frequently asked question, ‘what can we do to make it better?’ Rest in peace my friend.”
Donnie Wahlberg, who plays Danny Reagan, Frank’s oldest son, called Goldberg “a friend and a mentor.”
“Thank you for believing in me, Mr. Goldberg,” Wahlberg tweeted.

Hannah Simone’s comedy pilot at ABC has cast one of its lead roles.
Variety has learned exclusively that Art Malik has signed on to star opposite Simone in the single-camera comedy. In the project, Hannah (Simone) and her Indian-American immigrant father Sid (Malik) have always been close, but after she admits to herself that she’s in a dead-end job and he reveals his marriage is over, they’re starting over together and each finding a new path. This new chapter will either make them crazy close or just crazy.
Sid is further described as newly retired and a once-adventurous man who has fallen into a routine. But he is still enthusiastic and gung-ho for all things American and fond of Western wear. Sid had moved to the United States so that his family could have a better life, and he is bursting with pride at Hannah’s many accomplishments.

Tyra Banks knows she can’t “shine bright” without Lindsay Lohan!
On Friday, Banks stopped over at The Talk to discuss her upcoming Freeform movie Life-Size 2. While there, the America’s Next Top Model host, 44, delivered a sweet message to her former co-star, who will not be reprising her role as Casey Stuart in the sequel.

Nearly two decades after helping Lindsay Lohan(‘s character) get her life back together in the movie Life-Size, everyone’s favorite bright-shining toy is back for round two. Tyra Banks reprises the role of fashion doll Eve in Life-Size 2 — premiering Sunday, Dec. 2 on Freeform — for which we finally have an extended trailer.
Just like the original movie, Life-Size 2 stars Banks as Eve, a Barbie-esque doll that magically comes to life in order to help someone — in this case, a toy company CEO named Grace (played by grown-ish‘s Francia Raisa) — but as you’ll see in the trailer, Eve’s...

It’s her! Eve! And she wants to be your special friend, in the new trailer for Freeform’s “Life-Size 2.”
The 1-minute clip released Wednesday shows the return of Tyra Banks as everyone’s favorite real-life doll, Eve, who is no longer tormenting Casey Stuart with her relentless cheerfulness. No, Eve’s new reluctant bestest pal is Grace Manning (played by Francia Raisa), who straight up thinks this woman believes she’s a doll is nuts.
And then Eve drinks liquid butter and tries to pay a $12,485 shopping spree bill with a toy credit card, and we can’t really fight against the crazy argument.

The Ford Fiesta Movement is here, and it's trying to change the way brands think about engaging fans through social media. Instead of using creators as mouthpieces for canned blocks of corporate text, Ford is letting creators give the pitches most meaningful to them. The result has been some of the most fun brand videos we've seen recently on YouTube. At Social Media Week Los Angeles, Ford's Global Digital & Multimedia Communications Manager, Scott Monty, will discuss his company's online media strategy alongside a handful of the creators Ford has empowered. Panelists include Joe Nation (known in part for his work on BlackBoxTV), Bridget O'Neill, and Hank Chen; we can expect to her them offer the reasons why Ford's strategy is a positive for individual endorsers, not just the big brand. What does Ford hope to accomplish? Essentially, it's all about engagement. Large scale campaigns can roll up the 'likes' counter,...
