Twilight Week Declared On Deep CableBy Josh Tyler: 2008-11-12 23:30:35
It’s starting to look like Twilight’s popularity is the real deal. This thing won’t be another Snakes on a Plane or Serenity. If you want evidence, then look no further than the hordes of promotional partners fighting to get a piece of it. And the winner is… the ReelzChannel.
What the heck is the ReelzChannel? Apparently it exists somewhere on your television. Until now, nobody has really paid much attention to it. That changes next week when they present “Twilight Week”, an entire 7 days dedicated to nothing but fangless vampires who can walk around in the sun. All of the channel’s original programming will be used exclusively for covering all things Twilight, from November 17 – 23. They’ve sent us a complete listing of all the special shows they’ll have turned over to Twilight. Below is the complete list, check local listings for channel information: "Secret's Out" (Friday, November 21, 9 p.m. ET/PT). Hosted by renowned movie critic Leonard Maltin, the series spotlights those movie gems that, while they didn't make box-office history, deserve the attention of movie fans. For "Twilight Week," Maltin will review hidden gem movies featuring the cast of Twilight including Kristen Stewart (Into the Wild; Zathura: A Space Adventure); Elizabeth Reaser (Sweet Land, Puccini for Beginners); Nikki Reed (Thirteen); Peter Facinelli (Dancer, Texas Pop 81); and Edi Gathegi (Gone Baby Gone). "Dailies" (weekdays beginning Monday, November 17, 8 p.m. ET/PT) "Dailies" is ReelzChannel's signature daily movie news and information show. Throughout "Twilight Week" the "Dailies" team will present interviews, behind-the-scenes reports and special Twilight-themed segments including: a background "who's who" in the cast; red carpet coverage of the movie's Los Angeles gala premiere; interviews with cast members including lead actor Robert Pattinson, lead actress Kristen Stewart, and director Catherine Hardwicke; and a segment on Twilight's "Bad Guy and Girl Vampires," starring Edi Gathegi, Cam Gigandet and Rachel Lefevre. In addition, the "Ultimate Twilight Fan" - selected from among the nationwide entries submitted to ReelzChannel -- will be revealed Thursday, November 20 in a special interview feature. "Movie Mob" (Monday, November 17, 8:30 p.m. ET/PT) Criticism and passions always run high during this series, the first to feature an all-online cast who vie each week to keep their coveted spots as movie critics. Hosted by Sara Fletcher, the series will spotlight the Twilight trailer as it tees up the series' November 24 episode in which members of the Mob will go head-to-head in voicing their opinions about the much-hyped movie. "The Big Tease" (Wednesday, November 19, 8:30 p.m. ET/PT) Jill Simonian and Jeremy Parsons host a lively half-hour original series dedicated to the beloved movie trailer. This special edition of the show celebrates vampires in the movies with a look at the varied portrayals of vampires in movies over the years.
