Terry O'Quinn as Gavin Doran in "666 Park Avenue" (ABC/Andrew Eccles)
ABC‘s slate of new shows for fall has a strange flavor to it, and it’s going to be a bumpy ride. The network has about as many new shows as returning ones (if you count all the midseasons), and a good percentage of the returning offerings are a year old or less, making this look a bit like a rebuilding year.
Not only is it a rebuilding year, but it’s the year of bringing back every actor and actress who ever had a decent run on a show before. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a network’s new season slate that was so crammed with people returning from something else. If you can’t make it good, I suppose, make sure viewers recognize the faces.
It’s tricky to get a solid feel...

Terra Nova: Where Do I Know Them From?
by Kelly Kelemen for TV.com
Terra Nova just roared onto Fox's Monday lineup, backed by a hefty 9 figure budget from one Steven Spielberg, as the show hopes to garner a loyal fan base of thrill seekers and dino-enthusiasts and become the next Lost. But what the show doesn't have is that big name star that you know from countless other outlets such as Zooey Deschanel, Jane Lynch, Simon Cowell, Omar Epps, etc. So if you're busy putting your finger on actor's faces during the broadcast, desperately trying to place where they're from, here's a cheat sheet that might jog your memory.
Jason O’Mara (as Jim Shannon)
The show’s main character and Irish lad is no stranger to the little screen, if we can call it that anymore.

Riley Smith, even if you don't know who he is right off the bat by name, I am sure you have seen something that he has appeared in. This multi-talented young actor originally modeled, then switched over to acting. He started out in horror films and teeny bopper films. He know finds himself with his most challenging role in an episode of The Closer which is set to air in Dec. He then even proved to be a fine singer! Is there anything he can't do?!? Riley Smith got his break with leading roles in two horror films- Lovers Lane with then unknown Anna Farris (who got her big break just one year later in Scary Movie, in part because of young Riley) and in the homo erotic Voodoo Academy which was developed for Charles Band's Full Moon Pictures with David Decoteau directing. After appearing in these movies, more mainstream work followed.
