Brandon McMillan has dedicated his life to working with animals — so much, in fact, that he hardly has time to date. Now, he’s bringing his work to the small screen with a new show for CBS called Lucky Dog, which premieres on Saturday, September 28th as part of “The CBS Dream Team” line-up. Each episode will follow the trainer as he adopts a dog from a shelter — one that’s hours away from euthanasia — and then brings him back to The Lucky Dog Ranch to be trained before finding the perfect family.

In honor of National Singles Week this week, I’d like to address a new phenomenon that seems to be sweeping the globe faster than planking and twerking combined. (Okay, maybe not THAT fast.) What am I talking about? Twitter dating!
Unlike many performers, 41-year-old Julie Benz didn’t have dreams of appearing on the big screen. In fact, she began her career as a competitive figure skater and didn’t consider acting until an injury forced her off the ice. You may recognize her as Darla, the vampire from the television shows Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the popular spin-off Angel, or Rita, the wife of the title character on Dexter. Expanding her resume, she’ll next be playing mother Stevie Parker in Lifetime’s Taken: The Search for SophieParker, which premieres tomorrow night at 8 p.m. ET. Benz describes her character as “a tough NYPD detective who has to work against the clock to save her daughter and her daughter’s friend from the Russian Mafia and sexual slavery ring.”
After the performance at the VMA’s and her newest music video, it is safe to say that Miley Cyrus is on everyone’s minds whether we like it or not. She has taken the media by storm and consequently our consciousness but don’t fret. This is not a complete lost cause. There are lessons to be learned from this. So here are five don’ts that should never enter the dating world as seen by Miley Cyrus:
Online dating has gotten more popular over the years. You hardly ever hear anyone say how he or she met their significant other at a bar or at their friend’s birthday party.

Whether you’re looking for something casual or long-term, there’s a dating website for just about everyone. Here’s Cupid’s top five:
Before she could say a word, I knew it was all over.
I was walking up to see the woman of my dreams. She was standing in the middle of a tree-lined street. It was a starry night and the moonlight was peering through those trees and I was very much in love with her.
I had a ring in my pocket and was about to commit to her forever.

You see a man you’re interested in at the grocery store, and you know you can’t just let him walk away. But how are you going to make him notice you without stripping naked and doing a sexy dance in the produce section — which, of course, will get you arrested?

Since vying for Sean Lowe’s heart on The Bachelor, AshLee Frazier has been focusing on her career rather than her love life. Although the entertainment press says otherwise, the bubbly personality tells us that she hasn’t done much dating since her time on reality television. “I want to be well-rounded before I find someone and fall in love,” the personal organizer candidly shares.
The currently-single star also chats about what type of man she wants and what she learned from the show. “It’s okay to really put yourself out there. I never would’ve done that before,” she says. “Now, I’m looking for that feeling of being head-over-heels in love.”
And, of course, we had to ask Frazier about her take on the new Bachelor, Juan Pablo Galavis! Listen up for her thoughts on the Venezuelan soccer star and her advice to next season’s contestants.

Dating someone who has lost a significant other can prove to be challenging. It’ll be hard for them to let someone else into their heart after such a tragedy, but if you’re willing to be patient and show them there’s love after loss, the relationship you might be able to build will prove to be worth it. Cupid has some advice:
Match.com understands that love really is a game! That’s why they’re teaming up with Rob Ridgeway, the creator of a new board game called “Spontuneous,” to bring together singles for a night of competitive fun.

Her new book, Real Love, Right Now, is a set of guidelines that focus on discovering what really matters in a romantic relationship.

Kyle Keller and her lovely personality are no stranger to the media circuit: progressing from a sports broadcaster to host of MAXIM radio to executive producer for MediaKillers.com, Keller’s charm has brought her from into the spotlight. Her outgoing persona, stylish wardrobe, and sex appeal have even landed her two shows of her own, Style with Kyle and Kyle’s Ultimate Challenge. “Everything I have done in my career is connected,” she explains. “It’s all personality-based, whether I’m in front of or behind the camera. I think the most challenging part is getting people to take me seriously, but it’s been a fun ride.”

The summer months are known for a few things: warm nights, pool parties, BBQs and of course, weddings. For singles, wedding season is exciting, but it can be overwhelming when you feel like you are always the bridesmaid and never the bride.
