Boss is back and in a big way. The new season of the Starz original series Boss is about to get started and if these clips we have for you today from the premiere episode are any indication, things are going to be heating up quickly.

If you recall, Starz was so excited and confident about their series Boss that they ended up giving it a second season before it even premiered. Now, with these clips for the premiere of season 2, we see that they are wasting no time and getting things right back on track.

Looks like season 2 is gonna be fun. Click through for the clips.

Boss premieres on Friday, August 17 at 9/8C on Starz.

If you recall, Starz was so excited and confident about their series Boss that they ended up giving it a second season before it even premiered. We’re not exactly sure how well that first season did in the ratings, but we enjoyed the show and Kelsey Grammer’s performance and that of a certain Mayor’s aide.

Now, with a second season just around the corner, Starz has released a trailer for it and we, of course, have it for you today. In it, we get reacquainted with Grammer’s powerful and immensely flawed character Mayor Tom Kane and the rest of the players who will make up season two.

Take a look at the trailer after the break. Boss returns to Starz on August 17.

It seems HBO isn’t alone in the giving series a second season before they hardly run their first department. In fact, Starz has even done them one better.

The network has officially given the Kelsey Grammer government corruption drama Boss a second season of ten episodes. That’s great news for the show but what makes it even more remarkable is the fact that the show hasn’t even premiered on the network yet.

Don’t be too shocked, though. This move isn’t ompletely without precedent for Starz. The network did the same thing with Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

In case you’re not familiar with Boss (and no reason you should be as you can’t actually see it yet) it was created by writer Farhad Safinia and features Gus Van Sant making his TV directing debut. Grammer plays a ruthless Chicago mayor who has a secret that threatens to destroy him. Don’t they all.

Also in the show are Connie Nielsen, Jeff Hephner, Hannah Ware, Kathleen Robertson and Troy Garity. Production on Season 2 is reportedly set to begin in early 2012.

Look for the first season of Boss to debut on Starz on October 21.

The world of internet pornography is certainly a gigantic one. It’s…entertained millions, if not trillions of consumers across the globe for nearly two decades, and even helped usher in a new world of digital consumerism. Where did it all get started? Well, the newest film Middle Men gives you the answers.

From writer/director George Gallo (Bad Boys, The Whole Ten Yards) comes this near biopic about the men who brought adult entertainment to the world wide web. The film stars Luke Wilson, Giovanni Ribisi, and Gabriel Macht (The Spirit), with some pretty great cameos along the way including Kelsey Grammer, James Caan, Martin Kove, and Kevin Pollack.

Check out the newest trailer for the film, which has the brilliantly simple tagline “getting in is easy, getting out is hard”, after the jump, and be sure to keep an eye out for Middle Men when it hits theaters on August 6th.
