He moved to America with $400 dollars in his pocket.
Just how badly did Gilles Marini want to make it to America, the country that he calls “the big dream,” and represents “the sky is the limit.” He picked up and left his native France speaking not a word of english, and with a mere $400 in his pocket. “As soon as I got to America a lot of people really helped me out and trusted me,” explained the actor on a recent one-on-one with the TV Addict. “People I will always remember, people who will always have a place in my heart. ”
His revealing role in SEX AND THE CITY was not his first big gig.
Although best known as the casanova in the beach house next door to Samantha in the SEX AND THE CITY movie, Marini actually found his way onto Hollywood’s radar with small parts in CRIMINAL MINDS, UGLY BETTY and DIRTY SEXY MONEY.

Catch up with Thursday night TV.
After-all, if last night’s disappointing ratings for FRINGE, COMMUNITY and PARKS AND RECREATION are any indication, many of you were otherwise occupied. Seriously, what is up with that?
Watch UGLY BETTY.
A show which not only has enjoyed a creative resurgence this season thanks to some interesting story-lines for the always awesome Ana Ortiz, Michael Urie and Vanessa Williams. But thanks to the time-slot that viewers forgot, now finds itself on the verge of cancellation. [Update] Thanks to frequent contributor John who responded, “I WOULD watch UGLY BETTY, but it’s preempted tonight for Shrek the Third. Instead, how about MONK, WHITE COLLAR, SMALLVILLE, LAW AND ORDER and MEDIUM.”

Having not had the chance to watch even a single-frame of Thursday TV — short of an early sneak peek of last night’s FRINGE — this TV Addict finds himself once again passing the buck to all of you — my far smarter and better looking readers — to post away with your thoughts on last night’s instalments of THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, SUPERNATURAL, COMMUNITY, PARKS AND RECREATION, THE OFFICE, 30 ROCK, BONES, FRINGE, FLASH FORWARD, GREY’S ANATOMY, PRIVATE PRACTICE, SURVIVOR, CSI and THE MENTALIST.* ![]()
Full disclosure: We don’t actually watch SURVIVOR, CSI or THE MENTALIST, we’re just being polite!

Good News: NBC has announced that CHUCK will return on January 10th with two back-to-back episodes before moving to its regular Monday at 8PM time-slot on January 11th. Bad News: For Morgan Grimes, whose girlfriend Anna Wu (Julia Ling) was conspicuously left off NBC’s announcement press release and appears to be a victim of NBC’s downsizing. [Ausiello]
Good News: After 25 years, THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW will come to an end on September 9, 2011. Bad News: For many Americans, who will soon be left scratching their head as to what books they should be reading and how to throw an intimate dinner party for eight on a budget. [EW]
Good News: NBC is bringing the lowly-rated TRAUMA back from the dead. Bad News: For the Peacock Network, whose desperate attempt to triage the bleeding that is their primetime lineup speaks volumes about their current woes. [TheLiveFeed]
