There are probably a few people out there that remember Emy Coligado as Piama from Malcolm in the Middle or Emmy from Crossing Jordan, and it’s not hard to wonder why since these were two of her longest lasting roles and were also two of her very best. Thankfully Emy has remained in show business despite taking on guest-starring roles in several shows and having been featured in a few short films and movies throughout the years. She did have a part in the remake of The Three Stooges but if you missed it then there’s not a lot of

The absence of Arrested Development means we've had to make due without Buster and the comedic gold of Tony Hale. Thank you NBC Digital Studio for bringing Hale back in Ctrl, their new comedy web series that debuted today with the first three episodes. This almost could be billed as a sci-fi comedy, oddly reminiscent of the Adam Sandler's Click. Hale stars as under-appreciated office lackey Stuart who one day realizes his computer keyboard gives him time-bending powers over his office. We're talking rewinding time, moving things, invisibility and even the ability to clone himself. Joining Hale are comedians Steve Howey as his taunting boss and Emy Coligado as Stuart's would-be love interest.

NBC launched the first three episodes of their new web series Ctrl today on NBC.com and Hulu.com. Ctrl is based on the 2008 Sundance award winning short film "Ctrl-z" and will feature a total first season of ten episodes written and directed by Canadian film maker Rob Kirbyson.
Ctrl is a comedy that stars Tony Hale (from Arrested Development) as Stuart, a mistreated office worker who spills a bottle of Nestea (two guesses who their #1 sponsor is) on his computer keyboard transforming it into a magical device capable of manipulating the laws of space and time with the click of a button. Some of Stuart's new-found abilities include the power to rewind time, move objects, become invisible, and clone himself. Better yet, his reality manipulating keyboard may finally allow him to stand up for himself to his idiot boss, Ben Piller (Steve Howey from Reba fame). But will it...
