Brothers: ‘Follow the Story’ Finale Photos

Chandra

The second new December 27 episode of Fox’s Brothers is the first-season finale “Follow the Story,” which airs at 7:30pm ET.

Michael Strahan, Toni Trucks/Brothers 1.13

Guest star Toni Trucks (All of Us, Barbershop) plays Meg, a sports magazine writer who visits the Trainors in Houston to write an in-depth article about Mike.

However, her research speaking with each member of the family individually eventually causes the focus of her story to shift from Mike to a less well-known football subject.

Elsewhere, Coach’s superstitions regarding his football team’s winning streak irritates Adele.

Preview “Follow the Story” in the following photos.

We are now at the next-to-last episode of the rookie Fox sitcom Brothers, which happens to be “Girls Girls Girls,” the first of two new episodes airing on December 27.

Carl Weathers, CCH Pounder/Brothers 1.12

Romance is in the air at the Trainor home, and the Trainor brothers try to hook up with attractive women during the occasion.

But while their mother Adele is pleased to set Chill up on a blind date with social worker Jenny (Rosi Reed, My Wife and Kids), she’s not happy when Mike makes a move on her friend Gloria (Leila Arcieri, Son of the Beach).

Also, Coach decides he’s ready to hook up, too, so he tries to behave more romantically for his wife.

Check out preview photos for “Girls Girls Girls” below.

‘Til Death: Christmas Marathon Photos

Chandra

Happy holidays, my fellow sitcom lovers. Tomorrow is Christmas Day, of course, which means it’s almost time for the four-episode, primetime ‘Til Death marathon on Fox.

Brad Garrett/'Til Death

Since the episodes are all leftovers from the comedy’s second and third seasons, viewers will be spending time with the likes of J.B.

Brothers: ‘Christmas’ Photos

Chandra

The second new December 13 episode of Fox’s Brothers is “Christmas,” which airs at 7:30pm ET.

Michael Strahan, Daryl ''Chill'' Mitchell/Brothers 1.11

The holiday-themed episode features returning guest stars Tichina Arnold (Everybody Hates Chris) as Adele’s sister Cynthia, Lenny Clarke (Rescue Me) as Cynthia’s husband Lenny, and Steve Schirripa (The Sopranos) as Mike’s agent Louie. Woot!

Adele and Coach play relationship therapists when Lenny arrives out of the blue after Cynthia takes a solo trip to Mexico. And if trying to help her sister and brother-in-law reconcile isn’t enough trouble for Adele, she also has to deal with her holiday plans possibly getting ruined when Mike and Chill have to work.

Preview “Christmas” in the following photos.

Brothers: ‘Snoop Returns’ Photos

Chandra

Hip-hop recording artist Snoop Dogg returns to reprise his role as shady Cousin Kenny on “Snoop Returns,” the first of two new back-to-back December 13 episodes of the Fox sitcom Brothers.

Also making a cameo appearance as himself is football commentator and two-time Super Bowl winner Jimmy Johnson, former head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

Cousin Kenny helps Coach’s brother Maurice (Fox claims the actor is former star football player Fred Williamson, but preview photos show Antonio Fargas of Everybody Hates Chris and Starsky and Hutch) get released from jail, which prompts concern from Adele when the ex-convict arrives to stay with them. To her surprise, however, Maurice turns out to be a changed person.

Elsewhere, Johnson stops by the Trainor’s restaurant to discuss football, and Mike tries to hook up with a new waitress (Trauma’s Ryan Michelle Bathe) at the establishment.

Preview “Snoop Returns” in the photos below. Looks like series regular Daryl “Chill” Mitchell took a break from the camera since he’s only in the last pic.

Lifetime’s sophomore comedy Rita Rocks closes Season Two on December 7 with the 10pm ET finale “Born in The U.S.A” (and, yes, there’s no period at the end for some reason).

A nice touch is guest star Duane Martin, the real-life husband of series regular Tisha Campbell-Martin, who reprises his role as Rita and Jay’s bass guitarist neighbor Chuck.

The sitcom’s second season closes with very pregnant Rita determined to perform at her garage band’s first continuing gig, although her unborn child has different plans. Check out a few preview finale photos below.

Brothers: ‘Week in the Chair’ Photos

Chandra

Fox’s rookie sitcom Brothers presents the fresh episode “Week in the Chair” on Sunday, November 22.

Daryl ''Chill'' Mitchell, Michael Strahan/Brothers 1.09

After Mike offers his observation that confinement to a wheelchair isn’t all that bad, Chill bets his brother he couldn’t survive using a wheelchair for a week, hence the episode’s title.

Of course, Mike accepts the challenge to show he’s perfectly capable of doing what Chill is forced to, but his perception changes once he begins to actually experience what using a wheelchair is like. So, will he or won’t he lose the Super Bowl ring he puts on the line for the bet?

Preview “Week in the Chair” in the following photos.

Brothers: ‘Mike’s Comeback’ Photos

Chandra

The Fox sitcom Brothers has a new episode and a new time slot coming up on November 8. That day’s installment called “Mike’s Comeback” marks the rookie comedy’s official move from Fridays at 8pm ET to Sundays at 7pm ET.

Michael Strahan/Brothers 1.08

When Mike gets a chance to play again in the NFL, he assumes his financial problems may also end soon. Yeah, right!

Unfortunately for him, the only we he can return to active duty is if he passes a physical scheduled in just two weeks. So, with not much time to prepare, he relies on his dad Coach and brother Chill to help him get back in shape.

Elsewhere, Adele butts her nose where it doesn’t belong, namely in the business of a student who decides to pursue a career as a professional baseball player.

Sneak a peek at “Mike’s Comeback” in the preview photos below.

Brothers: ‘Meet Mike Trainor/Assistant Coach’ Photos

Chandra

Fox’s Brothers has a biggie coming up. The new October 23 episode “Meet Mike Trainor/Assistant Coach” features no less than three guest stars: Kim Kardashian (pictured below), Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell, and Bruce Springsteen E Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons, all playing themselves.

Kim Kardashian/Brothers 1.07

During the episode, Coach fires his son Chill as assistant coach after their high school football team loses a game in a most embarrassing manner. However, worst of all for Chill, Coach then asks Mike for help coming up with some new, improved plays.

Elsewhere, the latest hostess at Trainor’s restaurant attracts the attention of O’Dell and Kardashian after she spreads gossip to promote the restaurant and bring in new customers. Both women show up, and Kardashian is determined to set the record straight about the rumors.

Preview photos for “Meet Mike Trainor/Assistant Coach” follow.

Another New Sunday ‘Brothers’: Commercial/Coach DMV

Chandra

Fox is doing it again. Although a Major League Baseball game preempted the regularly scheduled Friday Brothers on October 16, the network is making up for it with a fresh episode called “Commercial/Coach DMV” on Sunday, October 18, at 7pm ET.

Will Sasso, Michael Strahan/Brothers 1.06

The episode features guest star Will Sasso (MADtv, pictured above and below at left), who plays Anthony “Avalanche” Carter, a former NFL rival of lead character Mike.

Poor Mike has a hard time of it after his agent lands him two on-camera opportunities for extra money, one involving post-game commentary with Avalanche and the other a commercial promo with Adele. However, the seemingly fortunate gigs don’t go as well as hoped when Mike realizes that both Avalanche and Adele are difficult people to work with on-screen.

Elsewhere, Coach encounters problems renewing his driver’s license, prompting shrewd Chill to bend over backwards to help him pass the test so he won’t end up chauffeuring his father everywhere.

Sneak a quick peek at the Sunday episode in the photos below. The second one includes Sopranos alum Steve Schirripa, who guest stars as Mike’s agent Louie.
