A.C.O.D. is a clever new comedy with a ton of the best of the quirky folks on TV comedies of the last few years (Adam Scott, Amy Poehler, Jane Lynch, the venerable and brilliant Catherine O’Hara and Richard Jenkins), and one of the best things about it is Jessica Alba getting to underplay a part for a change: no guns, no garters, no girl in jeopardy, just a very good-looking woman in a problematic relationship with an almost-as-good-looking guy. Here’s the trailer for A.C.O.D., with a glimpse of two of Jessica in the middle. It opens wide October 4.

Shameless The complete series. All 134 episodes from theEmmy® Award Winning series will be available to purchase on DVD March 18.
Synopsis: Meet Frank Gallagher (William H. Macy): proud, working-class patriarch to a motley brood of six smart, spirited and independent kids who, without him, would be…better off. In Frank’s booze-addled view, parenting just eats into his hard-earned bar-crawling time around Chicago–so he leaves it to eldest daughter Fionna (Emmy Rossum) to hold down the fort. Bearing the de facto parent badge/burden, she’s donned the proverbial apron and makes sure her younger siblings do their chores, keep a clean-ish home, and everyone (no matter how small) works to keep the house lights on, as well as food on the table. Brothers Lip (Jeremy Allen White), Ian (Cameron Monaghan), and Carl (Ethan Cutkosky) use their intellect to break every rule in the book to survive and make the bank, while younger sister Debbie (Emma Kenney) would sooner steal her share, Toddle Liam (Christian Isaiah), the youngest, is just happy to be along for the ride. The Gallaghers are irreverent, endearing, resilient–and they’re absolutely, wildly and unapologetically Shameless.
