Imagine summer fun, TV and learning all rolled into one TV show! Spell-mageddon! #ABCFamily

Spell-Mageddon World Premiere July 24 – Watch Each Wednesday at 9/8c on ABC Family

We love this new ABC Family show hosted by Alfonso Ribeiro, imagine the fun and what you could learn in one hour? Yes, the one hour game show makes the spelling bee something to strive for and not be afraid of… but watch out, the contestants on Spell-Mageddon are not only distracted but stuff happens to them while the spelling challenges get increasingly tougher!

Watch this Clip

We got to speak with Alfonso before the premiere and he is just as funny and entertaining as we remember him from his Fresh Prince of Bel Air days.

Alfonso Ribeiro, Host of Spell-mageddon, star of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

We had to ask: Were you a good speller in school?

He tells us that spelling was not his “best area” but  math was #1! That’s why he can feel for the contestants when they get a spelling wrong…

Does Alfonso rely on his autocorrect on his mobile?

Oh no, he’s very careful and reads as he goes, he doesn’t do 100MPH, he proofreads… (smart!)

So if spelling isn’t really his passion, why this project?

Alfonso tells us that it’s a fun ride and he always wanted to be involved with something fun, like this, take the spelling bee and add crazy distractions! It’s pure comedy and the contestants are so great and so focused. The Zapp electric shockers and sounds that are made by them when they react are too funny. The best part is they want to be there and we get to see their real reactions and have fun.

Alfonso tells us that people are very excited about a show that is positive and they really enjoy it. It’s truly LOL – laugh out loud fun. It’s naturally, not staged funny and very positive in nature.

How do you describe the show to people who don’t get it?

He says – think of the ABC Wipeout Show and it’s like that but you are learning words.

 

Imagine summer fun, TV and learning all rolled into one TV show!

About Spell-Mageddon

Spell-Mageddon is an hour game show where contestants take on hilarious distractions while spelling increasingly challenging words!

Get the “Doc McStuffins” Appisodes for iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch #FamilyFun #DisneyJunior

reblogged from RCR By Betsy Galchutt, Entertainment Reporter

Two episodes of the popular Disney Junior series “Doc McStuffins,” about a little girl who talks to and heals her stuffed animals and toys in her “playhouse clinic,” are now available on the Disney Junior Appisode app for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch.

The available appisodes are interactive for fans ages 2-7 and allow kids to tap, tilt, shake, and talk their way through various fun-filled activities!

The Appisodes

In one of the appisodes, called “Rescue Ronda, Ready for Takeoff,” Doc must diagnose and remove a twig from a toy helicopter’s propellers. Kids can participate by tilting their device to fly Rescue Ronda and by touching and dragging tools from Doc’s medical bag to help make the diagnosis, and lastly, by using Doc’s tweezers to help remove the twig!

In the second appisode, “A Bad Case of the Pricklethorns,” one of Doc’s blow-up toys, Boppy, springs a leak and Doc must bandage him up and teach him how to prevent future injuries. Kids also play and learn by tapping the screen to help Doc’s toys “go stuffed” and by guiding a band-aid to cover up Boppy’s boo-boo.

These fun and interactive activities are the perfect way for your child to watch, learn and participate in a stimulating and interactive way! To download the Disney Junior Appisode app for $4.99,  click here. To check out more episodes and games, visit the Disney Junior website.

Maia Mitchell Gives The Fosters on ABC Family Heart, Tune In Tonight to See Why

reblogged from The Red Carpet Report Post found here

If you haven’t discovered “The Fosters” on ABC Family, tune in tonight to see what you’ve been missing. We got to speak with one of the “foster” kids about her role and what it’s been like to be on this series a few days ago.

Maia Mitchell, the talented actress from down under, who plays Callie on the series is a hardened character in survival mode and learning to slowly begin to trust those around her. She’s very protective of her younger brother and will do what it takes to be there for him, even if it means breaking the rules and putting her relationship with her foster parents at risk.

We asked Maia how she found this role and she told us that she read the script for the pilot 3 or 4 times and auditioned twice, she really wanted to be cast as Callie because she as she tells us, she was “obsessed” with the character and knew the show was going to be a hit.

Here’s Maia talking to us on the blue carpet a few weeks back at the Monsters University premiere about her role on The Fosters.

How does an actor so young portray such a powerful performance?

Maia tells us that “Callie’s journey is to learn how to trust people” and the upcoming episode entitled “The Fallout” is a dramatic one, where she needs to understand that she has to face her past. She’s being encouraged to go to therapy, but as Maia tells us “a therapy session is not going to do it for Callie, she butts heads with the concept and she can’t face the demon’s in her past…” at least not yet.

Maia tells us that “the dialog is so strong and the character arcs are so clear in the writing that the more (I) am in character, the easier it is to be that character.”

She also tells us that she “learned more about (my)self in the pilot, it was so raw and I allowed myself to get lost in the character, dig deep beyond my comfort zone, and be challenged on a deeper level” than she had been at this point in her career.

Here’s a clip from a past episode about “Callie and her little brother Jude”

Finally, we asked who her favorite cast mate was on the show?

She tells us that’s a really tough question, but she finally shared it was Hayden Byerly, who plays her little brother Jude,”because we have a character history and I have a little brother (in real life) so I enjoy his company he reminds me of Charlie, my brother, Hayden’s very precocious and very clever.”

Be sure to tune in to “The Fosters” on Monday Nights at 9 PM ET. You can also find out more about this series, watch past episodes and even follow Maia on Twitter at  https://twitter.com/MaiaMitchell
