'Alice in Wonderland' fans have been eagerly awaiting Tim Burton's big screen live-action version for what feels like an eternity, and its release is still three months away. Luckily, there's another new take on the trippy classic out now: 'Alice,' a Syfy original miniseries (two-night premiere Sun., Dec. 6, and Mon., Dec. 7, 9PM ET).

Starring Caterina Scorsone as the titular Alice and Philip Winchester as her mysterious suitor Jack Chase, this reimagining looks at the tale from an entirely new and modern angle, much the way Syfy (then Sci Fi) did with 'Tin Man' a couple of years back. Not surprisingly, it's seen through the warped looking glass of the same director, Nick Willing.

AOL TV got Scorsone and Winchester to dish all about their parts in 'Alice,' how it's "darker" and "sexier" than the original, their costars -- including Tim Curry, Harry Dean Stanton and Kathy Bates -- and why filming in an abandoned tuberculosis hospital was just as creepy as it sounds.

Boy drama ... girl fights ... and the monstrosity that is known as Speidi. Yes, people, it's time for the season finale of 'The Hills.'

We caught up with Lauren 'Lo' Bosworth -- who made her reality show start as a teen on MTV's 'Laguna Beach' and later followed BFF Lauren Conrad to 'The Hills' -- last night before her flight from L.A. to New York to give us a sneak peek at what's ahead for the show and its stars. (Um, is Justin Bobby out of the picture yet, or what?)

Even successful sports stars need an assist sometimes.

On the upcoming special 'Holiday of Stars' (Sun., Dec. 6, at 5PM on ABC), celebrities from the entertainment and sports worlds share their holiday ideas and traditions. Kelly Edwards, home decorating expert for AOL Living and co-host and design coordinator for HGTV's 'Design on a Dime,' was brought on board to huddle with former Giants and 49ers quarterback Jesse Palmer (now a sportscaster for ESPN) to spruce up his New York apartment.

It was the perfect assignment for Edwards, whose style is all about giving the appearance of being high-end while being both value-conscious and sensitive to the personal taste of the home dweller.

'Modern Family' fans love themselves the Cam show. Just ask the guy who plays him. Anyone who has watched ABC's new hit comedy knows Cameron as the gregariously loud, somewhat excitable, all-around hilarious half to the more serious Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson). And with his pitch-perfect delivery and exceedingly quotable quips, actor Eric Stonestreet has quickly established himself and his character as one of the freshman series' breakouts.

Kansas City native Stonestreet had memorable turns on shows such as 'The West Wing,' 'Bones,' 'CSI,' 'Nip/Tuck,' and 'Pushing Daisies' before landing this plum multi-faceted role of the football-loving, newly adoptive father and budding auteur on ABC's dysfunctional family comedy. We chatted with the 38-year-old (who sounds nothing like his TV alter ego) about his character's unlikely inspiration, his history with clowns, and how success tastes so much sweeter after you've been kicking around the business for a bit.

'Fringe' is one of those shows where everyone gets in on the action sooner or later. And, although it took a season and a half, Astrid Farnsworth -- played by the lovely Jasika Nicole -- is finally getting her turn.

While visiting the show's set in Vancouver, AOL TV got some exclusive dish from Nicole about finally getting out of the lab, getting a gun ... and getting into a hazmat suit? "You haven't even seen the half of it," she excitedly told us. She also talks about their amazing set and dishes fun facts about her favorite farm animal costar, then admits her trick for knowing what's happening with the show. (Hint: she eavesdrops on her castmates.)

Watch our interview now to see the softer side of Astrid, including Nicole's reaction to hearing about another big "wow" moment coming up on the show.

In a world of mysteries, scientific impossibilities and a lot of FBI talk, nothing lightens the mood of 'Fringe' quite like John Noble playing the eccentric Dr. Walter Bishop.

With Walter's moments of brilliance constantly being interrupted by his own non sequiturs, it's his devilish smile that's the sure sign the elder Bishop is up to something.

AOL TV talked to Noble on the 'Fringe' set in Vancouver to find out when his character's relationship with his son Peter (Joshua Jackson) will finally explode. He also shared his thoughts on Olivia (Anna Torv) just needing a little love and expressed his own love for a certain bovine costar.

As the contestants' time on the Biggest Loser Ranch came to an end, Amanda found herself in a surprisingly powerful position, as it was her deciding vote that eliminated firefighter Allen Smith from contention for the $250,000 grand prize.

At the weigh-in, Liz fell below the yellow line for the fourth time, with Allen slipping below for the first time ever. Rudy became the contestant who's lost the most weight on campus in the history of 'The Biggest Loser' after a 12-pound week led him to a total of 146 pounds in 11 weeks. Danny, who had the highest weight loss of the night, set another record by losing double-digit pounds seven weeks in a row. His victory on the night also netted him a home visit from chef Curtis Stone.

Danny was not going to vote for his former partner Liz, while Rudy had formed a solid bond with Allen. That left their fate in the hands of the person they were hoping to be able to send home, Amanda. In an odd choice, she chose her heart and "integrity" over strategy, and sent Allen, who was less of a threat going into the finale, back to his firehouse.

Season 4 of 'Dexter' has been chock-full of complications thus far; from the Trinity murders to the Vacation murders, surviving has become a feat in itself.

Popping up over the course of this season has been the curious "Christine Hill," a go-getter reporter and Quinn's new lover, played by Courtney Ford. Having appeared in episodes of 'How I Met Your Mother,' 'Cold Case' and 'Ugly Betty,' landing this spot in Dexter has been a breakout role for her. And it couldn't have come at a better time, as she was almost ready to throw in the acting towel.

AOL TV recently spoke to Ford about her role on 'Dexter,' how her character has evolved and the role of the media in crime investigations.

One, Althea Harper, was accused by season 6 winner Irina Shabayeva of copying her looks. The other, Carol Hannah Whitfield, had to battle a wicked flu to complete her collection and compete in the Fashion Week finale. Both designers, the second and third-place finishers, respectively, in last night's 'Project Runway' season finale, talked to AOL TV about their experiences on the show, the dramas of the copycat accusations and the flu and what they've been up to post-'Project.'

The wait is finally over.

Today, James Franco will begin his multi-episode arc on 'General Hospital,' playing the appropriately titled character Franco, a mysterious artist-assassin out to wreak havoc on Port Charles.

In preparation for the big day, AOL TV snagged an exclusive interview with Franco, in which he talks more about his character name, his steamy on-screen hookup and how his upcoming '30 Rock' guest spot came about.
