Apparently the news that Lauren Conrad is leaving “The Hills” has left thousands of teenage girls and boys around the country in a state of mourning.
In just four years, LC has gone from the seaside resort town of Laguna Beach to becoming an international sensation as the star of MTV’s hit show “The Hills.” And whether or not you watch the show, it’s almost impossible to find someone who hasn’t at least heard the names LC, Heidi, Spencer and Audrina.
Well, it’s official — after five whole seasons, “Hills” centerpiece Lauren Conrad will be replaced by frienemy Kristin Cavallari — prompting mixed reactions from fans all over the world.
So today I stepped just outside the building into Times Square to ask “Hills” fans exactly what they thought of Lauren leaving, her new replacement Kristin, and if they think the show will be better or worse without LC.
It wasn’t hard to find die-hard “Hills” fans — in fact, it was really easy. From Kentucky, Florida, New York and London — we had people lining up to comment on the show and, judging by those we spoke to, LC is going to be missed. Hers are some big shoes to fill. But let me put you all at ease — one thing everyone should know is that the producers and team behind the show know exactly what they are doing and, most importantly, they know exactly what fans of “The Hills” want: drama! So don’t sleep on Kristin Cavallari just yet — something tells me it’s going to be an interesting season

'NCIS': Who's not coming home?!
NCIS DVD First things first: I'm a fan of goofy Tony and his plethora of pop culture references, but when he slid into that seat opposite Michael Rivkin last night -- after translating Ziva's phone conversation with him to track them to a restaurant, then calling her back to the office to get her to leave their table -- it was the first time I ever remember chanting "Ton-y! To-ny! To-ny!" It's nice to be reminded every once in a while why he's the senior field agent. And, of course, how good he looks in a suit.That final scene of Tony and Rivkin in Ziva's apartment, embedded below, practically made me wet myself. Pretty sure the post-commercial teaser shot of Tony on the ground, weapon drawn, was the best one ever. You didn't want it to be Tony, and yet you totally wanted it to be Tony. Him killing Rivkin must have been that "almost unforgivable" thing Cote de Pablo told us Tony would do to Ziva...From the trailer for next week's season finale, embedded after the jump, we know she wasn't lying when she said that Ziva holds a gun to Tony. My heartrate just picked up thinking about it -- that's good TV.Now we can address the question in the headline and in the season finale promo: Who's not coming back from the trip to Israel? We're supposed to think it's Ziva, and maybe it will be -- exec producer Shane Brennan isn't afraid to divide the team, which we learned in last season's finale. He's told us that this story arc carries through to the season 7 premiere, so expect a cliffhanger. (I'm thinking it will turn out to be Director Vance who stays behind for that assignment discussed at the intelligence summit...Any chance Ziva has been working an assignment for Vance that she wasn't allowed to tell Gibbs about, like when Tony had to date the Frog's daughter for Jenny?)P.S. Why didn't Gibbs reveal that it was Ziva who killed Ari and not him? Because when someone's loyalty is being questioned, you don't want to bring up that she turned on her half-brother, even if he was evil (but hot)? NCIS DVD

Mega Minute: Can Lost's Jacob Be Killed? Plus 24, Cold Case
As 24 stages another enjoyable showdown 'tween warring computer wonks Chloe and Janice, the question looms: Might Janeane Garofalo be kept around for next season? I've got Mary Lynn Rajskub's take on her real-life gal pal's possible encore.? If Cold Case DVD gets picked up for seventh season, what new ordeals await Lilly Rush? Kathryn Morris shares a sneak peek.? And as Lost's two-hour season-ender nears, I have to wonder: Can Jacob even be killed, as Locke aspires to do? Michael Emerson shares his qualified (and always-entertaining) two cents. Cold Case DVD

NCIS Preview: "You Are Witnessing the Calm Before the Storm"
There are just two episodes to go in this season of CBS' NCIS DVD, and playing a sizable role in them is Michael Rivkin, the Mossad agent who last week surfaced in bed alongside Ziva. This Tuesday, Tony finally gets some quality face time with Rivkin, and it's unlikely either gent will be smiling. Merik Tadros, who plays Rivkin, shared a look at what's to come.TVGuide.com: So, the elusive Michael Rivkin is now among us....Merik Tadros: [Laughs] Yes, apparently so.TVGuide.com: Did they tell you, back during [the Season 6 premiere] "Last Man Standing," that they had plans for you to return, but that you'd have to sit tight?Tadros: The way they set it up, I figured I would make some sort of comeback at one point, but I never knew when it was going to be. I had no idea.TVGuide.com: You have not exactly endeared yourself to fans landing in bed with Ziva.Tadros: Yeah, I had a sense that people would probably be angry about that. They're very passionate about the potential love for DiNozzo and David. I'm just doing my job!TVGuide.com: How is Cote de Pablo as a scene partner?Tadros: Oh, she's amazing. She's a sweetheart and an amazing actress.... It was very, very easy to have to be in love with her.TVGuide.com: Do things get intense in these last two episodes?Tadros: It gets pretty intense, without question. And it was very exciting, because I felt like it shed light on DiNozzo and David in a way that has never before done in the show. It was nice to be a part of that.TVGuide.com: What's the mood when Tony and Rivkin finally come face to face? Do they "mark their territory"?Tadros: I would assume so, yes.TVGuide.com: Shane Brennan told me that Rivkin would "cause some waves." Is the surf going to get only rougher before it calms down?Tadros: You guys right now are witnessing the calm before the storm. NCIS DVDTVGuide.com: At the end of the day, will Rivkin's presence bring Tony and Ziva closer together, or drive them apart?Tadros: I think that love can hurt and heal. In this case, we'll have opportunity to see both of those things take place. I don't want to say too much, but... I think it will only make their connection stronger, as they learn a lot more about each other.TVGuide.com: One theory being batted around is that whatever is going on "between" Rivkin and Ziva is an "arranged" thing that she's trapped in.Tadros: Well, with the underworld of espionage, you would never really know. They could easily have been paired and had to be in love and then had to learn to love each other.... The way I've always approached it is that Rivkin loves Ziva. They've always wanted to add some suspense and mystery to all of it, but I would always say to the directors, "How could I not love her?" But he also has a job to do. And so does she. [Executive producer] Shane [Brennan] is a genius, so it's been a great pleasure to just go along for this ride. I'm excited to watch the finale [airing May 19] myself just to see how it all plays out! NCIS DVD

NCIS: Cote de Pablo Talks Tiva
A lot of NCIS dvd fans are probably expecting fireworks between Ziva (Cote de Pablo) and Tony (Michael Weatherly). After all, the two have amazing chemistry and the promo for last night's episode said Tony would be forced to question Ziva's loyalty to NCIS dvd after discovering a connection between her and Michael Rivkin. In an interview, de Pablo tells Entertainment Weekly that things are about to get intense all the way to the May 19 finale."We could not be farther away from kissing," de Pablo says. "I'm telling you, it's not 'I hate you' anger; it's 'I want to kill you' anger. Like, 'I want to shoot you in the head, but instead I'm gonna put my gun on your knee' anger.... He does something to her that is almost unforgivable. However, the reason he does it is because he truly believes it's going to help her. Little does he know that he almost kills her."Tony and Rivkin, if the promos are to be believed, are set to meet face-to-face in the next episode called "Semper Fidelis." The finale, meanwhile, will feature Ziva's return to Israel and her non-so-happy reunion with the powerful head of Mossad, which also happens to be her father.For her part, de Pablo says her connection with Weatherly was unmistakable even from the day of the audition for NCIS dvd"We sort of hated each other immediately, and loved each other immediately. I walked into the audition and he thought, 'Oh my God, she's gonna be so hard to work with. She's so complicated.' And I thought, 'This guy's so incredibly unprofessional.' He totally went off script and started improvising ... That relationship was established the moment that we met. Nothing changed, it was just enhanced. And we loved each other as well. We realized we're so drastically different and so much alike that there was an immediate attraction."Disney 100 Years of Magic dvd

Karl Urban fleshes out a younger Bones in 'Star Trek'
For several years now, New Zealand-born Karl Urban has been the guy filmmakers turned to if a character had to ride a horse, chuck a spear or run through the forest primeval in a breechcloth.In the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy he was Eomer , one of the riders of Rohan. In “Pathfinder” he played Ghost, a warrior of an Indian tribe battling Viking maraudersBut in director J.J. Abrams’ new “Star Trek,” opening Friday, the 36-year-old Urban gets to do something else entirely.He gets to be funny.More than that, he gets to portray a younger version of a character that every student of pop culture knows intimately: Dr. Leonard “Bones dvd” McCoy, the often-acerbic ship’s surgeon on the Enterprise.“This was a fantastic opportunity for me,” Urban said in a recent phone call from Hollywood. “I’m so grateful to J.J. for the opportunity to do a character so fundamentally different from anything I’ve done in such a long time. You certainly can’t call Bones McCoy an action hero.“The other thing that makes this so great is that I’m a long-term fan of the TV show. As a kid in New Zealand I would religiously be in front of the set every Saturday morning when ‘Star Trek’ came on.”In the new film Urban looks and behaves uncannily like the late DeForest Kelley, who played McCoy on the series and in several big-screen incarnations.“J.J. set forth a mandate that it was up to each of us in the cast to decide what aspects of these established characters we wanted to bring to the younger versions of them.“I tried to approach that not as an actor but as a fan ... if I wasn’t in this movie and was just somebody going to see it, how much continuity would I want with these characters that I grew up knowing and loving?“I decided I’d want a lot of continuity. My job was to identify the spirit and essence of what Mr. Kelley had done for 40 years and filter it through myself. The challenge was to not only honor that legacy, but to continue to explore it with a fresh eye.”Given the roars of audience approval that greeted Urban’s Bone-sian delivery of classic McCoy eruptions at a recent screening of “Star Trek” ("Dammit, I’m a doctor, not a physicist!"), it appears that Urban pulled it off. NCIS DVD“I read one reviewer who put forth the opinion that the most engaging parts of the movie are the character beats between the moments of sci-fi spectacle.“Which is fantastic, because that was always the inherent strength of ‘Star Trek’ — it was a character-driven show. You might forget about individual stories, but not the characters. They’re the glue. You engage with them and care about them. Disney 100 Years of Magic dvd

'NCIS' Spin-off Looks Stable
Tonight will mark the second part of the NCIS two-part special that launches and judging from initial reviews of the first one and the relevant ratings, the spin-off continues to look like a sure thing. The first part last week reeled in 16.32 million viewers; a figure which saw a seven percent drop, but still considerably enough reason to extend the procedural to the shores of Los Angeles.According to the CBS press release on the episode, the appearance of Mossad agent Michael Riykin (Merik Tadros) has Tony (Michael Weatherly) questioning Ziva's (Cote de Pablo) loyalty to NCIS dvd. Meanwhile, back in Los Angeles, Special Agent Callen (Chris O'Donnell) goes undercover to try to catch a terrorist cell while OSP psychologist Nate Getz (Peter Cambor) discovers the startling truth about Gibbs (Mark Harmon) and Special Agent Lara Macy's (Louis Lombard) relationshipsWe previously reported that NCIS dvd executive producer Shane Brennan summed up the spin-off as "No forensics. No autopsies. And no Abby." And he cautioned that while the spin-off will be set in an environment that is recognizably NCIS, it won't be a carbon copy of it."The agent lies to them, wins their confidence and ultimately betrays them. There's a big emotional cost for the agents when they do that - it's kind of a Stockholm Syndrome effect."Critics point out that NCIS dvd is taking a page from the CSI playbook, having launched successful spin-offs in Miami and New York. In fact, NCIS dvd itself is a spin-off of JAG, which used to be hugely successful.

Todd Smith Still Cool With Sears, NCIS
While reports issued last week have called for the demise of LL Cool J's affordable line of clothing through Sears, a spokeswoman says the retailer still loves the current NCIS dvd actor.LL Cool J, aka Todd Smith, launched the line of apparel last fall stating: "It feels really good in this economic climate for me as not only an artist, but as a businessman to be able to present something to America that I know will make things a little easier for people."Since its debut in stores, LL Cool J's line has been joined by several celebrity affiliated apparel and fragrance products including Andre Benjamin's "Benjamin Bixby" but, like other items for sale at retail, each line has been effected by troubling economic conditions.Contrary to reports that his line is being pulled due to "poor sales," a Sears spokesperson told Wooha.com that it values its partnership with the former "Phenomenon" rapper/actor."Sears values its partnership with LL Cool J and will continue its commitment to providing the LL Cool J collection to its customers, both in-store and online. The collection is characterized as affordable, iconic apparel for the family and represents an important breakout brand in Sears’ wide assortment of tees, denim and hoodies."In related news, LL Cool J's will appear on NCIS' dvd "Legend Conclusion" episode Tuesday,
