Ricky Martin to return to 'Glee'?

Ricky Martin could return to Glee in the future, reports have suggested.

The musician could become a recurring character or even a series regular on the Fox show, TV Line reports.

Martin appeared in this week's episode as Spanish night class teacher David Martinez.

At the end of the instalment, David became McKinley High's Spanish teacher after Will (Matthew Morrison) decided to switch to history instead.

"We hope to have [Martin] fly in and tape when he can," a source claimed. "He loves the show and his character and wants to do it."

The reports have suggested that Martin could appear in Glee again in spring.

Glee airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on Fox. The third season will resume in the UK on March 1 on Sky1.

'Smallville' to continue as online 'Season 11' comic series

Smallville is to continue as an online comic series, it has been announced.

DC Entertainment has confirmed that a virtual 'Season 11' - written by Bryan Q Miller - will debut online on April 13, with new chapters released weekly thereafter.

Smallville concluded in May 2011 after ten seasons. Miller wrote nine episodes of the CW drama and also served as executive story editor from 2010 to 2011.

The 'Season 11' comics will also be available in print, with the first issue set for release on May 16.

"Six months after Clark Kent donned the cape and took to the skies to save Earth from Apokolips… enter Season 11!" said Miller.

"New allies abound! New enemies afoot! And old friends return where they're least expected!"

Smallville characters confirmed to appear in the comic include Oliver Queen / Green Arrow (as played by Justin Hartley), Chloe Sullivan-Queen (Allison Mack), Lois Lane (Erica Durance), Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum) and General Sam Lane (Michael Ironside).

Batgirl artist Pere Perez will illustrate the interiors of the 'Season 11' series, with Superman Secret Origin's Gary Frank and digital artist Cat Staggs producing the covers.

"Pere and colorist Chris Beckett have done a fantastic job of capturing the look of the show and the players, and Gary and Cat are knocking it out of the park on covers," Miller enthused. "I couldn't be more excited to help give seasoned viewers and new readers an all-access pass to Clark's first year in the cape."

It was previously rumoured that Smallville would continue in novel form, with Miller also being linked to the prose spinoff.

'TOWIE' James 'Arg' Argent: 'I've only had sex with one girl'

'TOWIE' James 'Arg' Argent: 'I've only had sex with one girl'

The Only Way Is Essex star James Argent has claimed that his ex-girlfriend Lydia Bright is the only woman he's ever had sex with.

Argent made the revelation on last night's TOWIE, denying rumours circulating among the cast that he had cheated on Bright during their four-year romance.

Speaking to friends Joey Essex and James 'Diags' Bennewith, Arg joked that he would probably still be a virgin if he hadn't met Bright.

"At least one good thing came out of the relationship. I lost my virginity to Lydia," said Argent.

"I'd probably still be a virgin now."

When Essex mocked his pal, Arg added: "Shut up, you weirdo. I went out with her for four years, you doughnut.... Sympathy, though. Cheers boys."

Meanwhile, Essex and Diags attempted to start a new relationship on the scripted reality show by double dating Lauren Pope and Georgina Dorsett.

TOWIE continues on Sunday night (February 12) on ITV2.

Nigel Lythgoe: Ryan Seacrest is glue that holds American Idol together

Nigel Lythgoe: Ryan Seacrest is glue that holds American Idol together

American Idol's executive producer Nigel Lythgoe has described the show's host Ryan Seacrest as "probably the best in the business".

During a recent conference call with reporters, the So You Think You Can Dance judge was asked about Seacrest's future as host and whether the competition could continue successfully without him.

"There can always be an Idol without anybody," he replied. "I'm surprised that question's still being asked after Simon [Cowell] left us when everybody said there wouldn't be an Idol without Simon.

"I believe that Seacrest is probably the best host in the business," he continued. "Why he hasn't received an Emmy yet, I'm not sure. I would hate to think of him leaving American Idol. I think he is the glue that sticks it all together and moves it along."

Lythgoe added: "I'm a huge fan, from the moment I heard him on radio when I first came to America and asked him to come along and audition. I don't have anything bad to say against Ryan. Apart from he's too good looking, he's got too much money, to be given $300 million to invest in companies. I hope he comes on for Nigel Lythgoe Productions.

"I just hope he doesn't leave, to be frank with you. I think they should try to sort out a deal."

American Idol kicked off its season 11 Hollywood Week on Wednesday night (February 6), with the episode ending on a cliffhanger when hopeful Symone Black fainted and fell off the stage.

Lythgoe previously said that at least five contestants had collapsed during Hollywood Week, which judges Jennifer Lopez, Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler have described as "the most brutal and intense" ever.

Howie Mandel's 'Mobbed' continues to grow in ratings

Howie Mandel's 'Mobbed' continues to grow in ratings

Howie Mandel's Mobbed rose again last night (Wednesday), Nielsen overnight data reveals.

The 9pm reality series pulled in 8.8m (3.0) for Fox, posting a 900k increase on last week's impressive figure.

American Idol, meanwhile, held a strong audience of 18.9m (6.0) for the network in the 8pm hour, climbing 600k week-on-week.

Returning for new episodes after a three-week hiatus, The Middle (8.5m/2.6), Suburgatory (7.3m/2.5), Modern Family (12.9m/5.5), Happy Endings (6.9m/3.0) and Revenge (7.6m/2.5) performed solidly for ABC.

A CBS news special, Person to Person, interested just 6m (1.1). The weak lead-in did not help Criminal Minds (13.6m/3.4) and CSI (11.4m/2.7), which both lost viewers.

Meanwhile, Whitney (4.1m/1.5) and Are You There, Chelsea? (3.7m/1.5) were roughly steady, after which 5.3m (1.1) watched Rock Centre with Brian Williams, before the audience soared to 6.7m (2.4) for Law & Order: SVU.

Elsewhere, One Tree Hill (1.3m/0.7) and Remodeled (710k/0.4) aired on The CW.

'PhoneShop' renewed for third series by E4

Sitcom PhoneShop has been handed a third series, it has been revealed.

Starring Tom Bennett and Martin Trenaman, the TalkbackThames comedy is expected to return to E4 later this year.

The show follows the trials and tribulations of graduate Christopher (Bennett) while working at a mobile phone store.

Writer, producer and director Phil Bowker said in a statement: "We are genuinely delighted that we're going to get to work with the good people at E4 again this year.

"PhoneShop is something I care deeply about and it's incredible (and rare) to be able to nurture and grow it in the company of people who have an unparalleled enthusiasm and understanding of your show."

Meanwhile, Channel 4's comedy commissioning editor Nerys Evans added: "We're thrilled we're going to have another series of PhoneShop. It's such a beautifully observed reflection of, as they say in the show, 'Cameron's Britain!' A rare alchemy of fantastic writing with a brilliant cast delivering note-perfect performances."

Piloted as part of Channel 4's Comedy Showcase in 2009, a full series of six episodes was commissioned, eventually airing in October 2010.

Series two, which culminated in Christopher nearly leaving his job, aired in November and December last year.
