“American Horror Story: Asylum,” aired its second episode of the season, “Tricks And Treats”, tonight. In the episode, ““The staff summon an exorcist to deal with a possessed farm boy, while Sister Jude’s dark past is revealed.” The new season is set at an East Coast asylum for the criminally insane in 1964 and revolves around Jessica Lange’s new character — a nun — and her boss at the institution, played by James Cromwell. Sarah Paulson, Zachary Quinto, Evan Peters, Lily Rabe, Clea Duvall, Chris Zylka, Joseph Fiennes, Chloe Sevigny, and Adam Levine round out the cast.

If you’ve already watched the first episode and are primed for the second, I think it’s safe to watch the brief behind the scenes clip – entitled “The Opening” – that we’ve included below the jump. And if you’ve already seen the second episode, it’s safe to watch the promo for Episode 3 – “Nor’easter” (airing October 31st at 10:00 pm e/p): “A violent storm hits Briarcliff, allowing a group of patients to plan a daring escape. Sister Jude (Jessica Lange) is haunted by her past.” Written by Jennifer Salt; directed by Michael Uppendahl.

We’ve also got a glimpse behind the curtain of the pilot turned Halloween special “Mockingbird Lane“. Earlier today we shared 5 clips from the show, but if you’re not yet satiated – this behind the scenes clip is for you. I’m actually kind of curious to see this one!! This new, reimagined version of the classic 1960’s comedy “The Munsters” is based on executive producer Bryan Fuller’s (“Pushing Daisies,” “Heroes”) script and was directed by executive producer Bryan Singer (“X-Men” film series, “House”).

“Mockingbird Lane” airs Friday, October 26 on NBC. Head inside for the clips! READ MORE

Portia De Rossi 61212 Mariana Klaveno Out, Portia De Rossi To Play Lily Munster In Mockingbird Lane

Looks like Mariana Klaveno couldn’t get out of her contract with “Devious Maids” because she’ll no longer be playing Lily Munster in NBC’s “Munsters” reboot, “Mockingbird Lane“. The show has gone with better known actress Portia De Rossi (pictured above; “Arrested Development”) instead.

Per Deadline, “Portia de Rossi, known for her platinum blonde locks, is taking on one of TV’s best known brunettes — Lily Munster. The Arrested Development and Better Off Ted alumna is set to play the female lead in NBC’s Munsters reboot Mockingbird Lane. Mariana Klaveno had previously been cast as Lily Munster but the deal was contingent on her being released from ABC’s pilot Devious Maids, where she was a regular. However, Devious Maids producer ABC Studios did not release Klaveno or agree to make her a recurring on the project”

She will join Jerry O’Connell (announced yesterday as Herman Munster) and Eddie Izzard, who will play the powerful and quick-witted vampire in a role that was originated by Al Lewis. Mason Cook will play Herman and Lily’s werewolf son, Eddie. Bryan Singer will executive produce and direct the pilot. NBC initially eyed the reboot, from “Pushing Daisies” creator Bryan Fuller, for this development season but pushed the project to summer.

The newer version of the show is said to be an edgier and slightly darker take exploring origins of Herman and Lily Munster (originally played by Gwynne and Yvonne De Carlo) and how they arrived at the famed 1313 Mockingbird Lane address. READ MORE

It is a moonlit night in Los Angeles, when something lurking in the shadows causes their car to suddenly swerve off the road, a teenaged brother and his career-driven sister emerge relatively unscathed, but forever changed by the accident. Suddenly, the siblings find themselves blessed with increased physical strength, heightened sensibilities and undeniable allure to everyone around them. But, what if what happened to them that night wasn’t just an accident and what seemed like fate was really something more? It is only a matter of time before Ellie (Christina Ricci) and Jimmy (Jesse Eisenberg “Rodger Dodger”) can no longer control these impulses because their newfound power comes with a price that they never expected to pay and a mystery that only they can solve.
