  1. Ok Fanboys, the wait is finally over. Fringe has been renewed for a final season. Hooray. The show should have ended long ago, and we all know it... but, whatever.
  2. On the other side of that coin, while I'm no huge Teen Wolf fan, one of the best new shows of last year is coming back, and has a premiere date. That's right, Awkward, I said it.
  3. In other date news, The Glades and newcomer Longmire will be showing up back-to-back in summer. Keep your eye out for all the news you can get on Longmire, it looks like it might come in as an unsung hero.
  4. Time's up for Make It Or Break It though. Try not to look so sad. I actually had a soft spot in my heart for this bit of screwball fluff when it came out, but it ran its course quite a while ago.
  5. You didn't ask for it, but you're getting it anyway. Well... it's something we can take the kids to, can make enough money no matter what critics, and audiences, have to say about it... apparently.
  6. Also jumping on the "do we really need that" pile.
  7. In more interesting news, this is a combination that might prove interesting. The Duplass brothers have a unique viewpoint when it comes to getting films together, and the novel in question could be the perfect vehicle.
  8. Kicking off the WTF news... I like a show with a plan, but what the hell are you going to do with seven seasons of Hannibal? Actually, what I mean is, what the hell are you going to do with one, but he said seven, so I was stuck with it.
  9. You're thinking you've heard it all, and you're thinking about taking a cruise...
  10. Well, it's old news already... as is Rosie's throwdown, but it's certainly WTF
  11. In not quite WTF news, but fairly awesome news, Penn Jillette voiced his opinion on whether or not Celebrity Apprentice was scripted. Basically, his response is pretty much the same as everyone's... if you really give it a little thought. Basically, you throw a bunch of moderately famous people with giant egos in a room, and what's to script?
  12. Wonder no further about a sequel to the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man, it already has writers. Might have been nice to see what happened with the first one, but apparently comics are a goldmine that need no further investigation.
  13. Analysts have been quick to shred Netflix after it posted a huge loss, despite adding subscribers. I find this to be good news, because if they can get it to go down enough, I can buy it again.
