NBC Delaying ‘Community’ and ’30 Rock’ Premieres HOW Long?
‘Community‘ fans are the first people to single out NBC for disregarding the show, by either never giving enough promotion, or changing its show-runner without so much of a phone call, and the newly-released official schedule for the fall is just icing on the cake. So just how long will we have to wait for fresh episodes of ‘Community,’ or even ‘30 Rock?’
‘Weeds’ Season 8 Confirmed To Be the Show’s Last
Looks like the ‘Weeds’ bag is empty, folks. Shut off your growth lights, pack up your bongs, and sift through the haze for more marijuana metaphors, because Showtime has decided to pass on any additional seasons of long-running Mary-Louise Parker comedy ‘Weeds.’
‘Munsters’ Reboot ‘Mockingbird Lane’ Casts Jerry O’Connell as Herman Munster
Well, lets be honest. When was the last time you saw Jerry O’Connell, and didn’t feel like chasing him with pitchforks and fire? NBC’s reboot of ‘The Munsters,’ titled ‘Mockingbird Lane‘ has made another step (or lurch) closer to the real deal, as the family’s patriarch not has a face. Or, at the very least, one cobbled together from other faces.
Who Will Play Hannibal Lecter In the New NBC Series?
In spite of NBC’s pre-’Red Dragon’ straight-to-series drama ‘Hannibal‘ not being present at the past Upfront event, a considerable amount of buzz surrounds the series. After all, to put Hannibal Lecter on TV you’d need some ace casting, no? We already knew that Hugh Dancy would take the role of a young agent Will Graham, but we’ve been tepidly swirling our Chianti waiting for news of the man him
‘LOST’ Showrunner Damon Lindelof Has "No Apologies" About Ending
It’s been about two years since the end of ABC’s mega-hit pseudo sci-fi series ‘LOST,’ though we obviously haven’t stopped talking about it. Even the most hardcore loyalists found themselves divided by the show’s controversial ending, which to say the least, didn’t exactly wrap up all of the lingering mystery threads in a nice little package. So what exactly does co-creator / executive producer
‘Dog The Bounty Hunter’ Cancelled
Somewhat sad news, folks. While much of last week was spent on an upswing watching show after show get officially picked up and renewed, it seems two of TV’s underrepresented mainstays are about to go gentle into that goodnight. On the upside, at least one of the cancelled series won’t mean an end to work!
TBS Picks Up New Norm MacDonald Talk Show
It’ll always be a shame to us that Norm MacDonald never took off the way Will Ferrell did following ‘Saturday Night Live.’ Both great ‘Saturday Night Live’ stars and breakout performers, yet MacDonald never found the film success or popularity of Ferrell in any of his comedies. But, you know what Will Ferrell never had? His own talk show on TBS!
Could ‘The Incredible Hulk’ Still Smash His Way Onto TV?
As just about everyone in the world knows by now, The Hulk completely stole the show in Marvel’s ‘The Avengers‘ these past few weeks. For a while Disney (through ABC) and visionary director Guillermo del Toro had talked about the possibility of bringing the green brute back to TV screens in the tradition of the classic Lou Ferrigno / Bill Bixby take, but with ABC’s fall schedule revealed, what do
NBC Renews ‘Law and Order: SVU,’ Orders New Dick Wolf Series
It doesn’t seem to matter that the original ‘Law & Order‘ has fallen by the wayside, that series star Christopher Meloni has since departed, or how old and parody-able the franchise has become, NBC isn’t ready to give up on ‘Law & Order: Special Victims Unit’ just yet. More than just a renewal however, NBC look to keep franchise creator Dick Wolf very happy with a new deal including an or
‘LOST’ Creator Hints the Show Could Return
It’s been a solid two years since ‘LOST‘ finally ended its historic run with the divisive, yet aptly-titled “The End,” but the rumor mill hasn’t stopped churning with ideas and possibilities for a way to continue the Island stories so richly chronicled on ABC. After all, with many of ‘LOST’s mysteries still unresolved, even by the supposed “epilogue” included on the DVD, isn’t a return trip due?
