Excuse me, do these effectively hide my thunder?

The Television news for the week:
  • The poster for The Walking Dead Season 3 has been released, check it out below:

    Exclusive: Check Out the New Trailer for CW's Arrow
    Sorry, but who ever posted the video is not allowing me to embed it into this post.
  • Remember a very long time ago when I was talking about the Transporter TV series and it having a rough start, when Chris Vance got hurt during filming. Well the series has released a decent trailer to tell a little bit of the story and show some of the cool action scenes. Check it out below:

"Oh goodness, look at my wrist, I have to go."

The television news for the week:
  • The CW is in talks to create a Battle Royal TV series. Battle Royal is what I like to call the Japanese version of The Hunger Games. This news is dropping from the LA Times and they say that the CW is talking with Hollywood reps behind closed doors about launching the English language version properly. Could the series get the green light and  Koushun Takami's approval?
    Just image this being on TV:
    Battle Royale Controversy
  • It looks like Anger Management is getting picked up for 90 more episodes. FX president John Landgraf has been hinting this after the success of the first season's ratings. Also Papa Sheen, Martin Sheen, will have a reoccurring role on the show as Charlie Sheen's character's father. I have not seen the show yet, but I hear good things.
  • Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog is set to premier on the CW this October. If you havent heard of it, it is the brainchild of Joss Whedon and was created due to the 2007-2008 writers strike. It tells the story of an aspiring supervillain named Dr. Horrible, played by Neil Patrick Harris and his heroic yet cocky nemesis, Captain Hammer, played by Nathan Fillion. Its a battle for the heart of the woman they both love, Penny, played by Felicia Day. Keep an eye out for it on Tuesday, October 9 at 9 p.m.
  • Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles have signed on to continue their roles as Sam and Dean for 2 more seasons. The hopes are high for the show now that Jeremy Carver is the show runner. But with the show now going into production of 2 more seasons, will the 10th season be the end of the series?
  • The Incredible Hulk TV show ready to start production, but still needs a writter. The series will be done by Guillermo del Toro and will be for ABC.

Community will never be the same!

The Television news for the week:
  • ABC is still planning on doing a Hulk TV series. The series would be coming from the amazing writer, director, producer Guillermo del Toro. To continue the story that The Avengers movie started, they would need to bring on Mark Ruffalo as the show runner. The special effects would have to be great and  be done under a budget. And lastly it would need a large viewership to keep it running. I don't see the show happening, but it would be really nice to see it happen.
  • CBS has released sneak peeks for Elementary and Vegas. If you remember me talking about Elementary being a modern Sherlock Holmes in America with Lucy Liu playing Watson.
    • Sneak Peek for Elementary:

      I still think Sherlock from BBC is better.
    • Sneak Peek for Vegas:
  • Here is the first footage from CW's new series Arrow:
    • Here is the trailer for the series:

  • Dan Harmon has been fired as Community Show runner. He went to his Tumblr account to issue a statement. This really shocked me after Season 3 finale just aired last Thursday. The show will still have a 4th season, but without Dan Harmon. Since he is out, do you think that David Guarascio and Moses Port can continue the show? If so, can it be done so that the fans will continue to love it. Could they bring up the ratings so that the show will do better then ever? I hope so!

NBC gets Channel of the Year Award!

The television news for the week:
  • NBC has renewed 30 Rock, Community, and Parks and Recreation for another season, but with a catch. They will all have shortened seasons. Each show will average about 13 to 14 shows this season. 30 Rock is coming back for its seventh and mostly likely final season. After the long mid season hiatus for Community, people weren't sure if it there would be a season four. Parks and Recreation will be back for its fifth season. NBC also decided to cancel Awake after a first season full of mixed reviews.
  • Fox decides to pick up the show Touch for another season and decides to cancel Alcatraz, The Finder, Breaking In, and I Hate My Teenage Daughter. This is sad, I kind of liked The Finder and Breaking In, even though I have only seen one episode of each show. The renewal of Touch doesn't come as a surprise since it was such a smash hit with audiences.
  • The cast of Grey’s Anatomy has signed contracts for seasons 9 and 10. This is sad since I think the show is a ripoff of Scrubs and is really bad Television. I cant believe a show like this has lasted this long.
  • AMC renews Comic Book Men and The Talking Dead for another season each. I was surprised that Comic Book Men could get another season sin it was really hard for me to watch it. It was boring, lame, and couldn't keep my attention. The Talking Dead on the other hand was pretty cool. Chris Hardwick made the after show for The Walking Dead fun and Entertaining. I am now a big fan of The Nerdist Podcast that is hosted by Chris Hardwick and I can't wait for season 3 of The Walking Dead to return so that he can talk about the show with some more special guests.
  • The CW orders many shows, but me being a guy and a comic book nerd only one is worth watching for me. Arrow, the TV show adaption of the Green Arrow Comic Books seems to be working out as a good show. The CW also adds The Carrie Diaries, Beauty and the Beast, First Cut, and Cult to the line up this fall.  The Carrie Diaries will serve as a Sex and the City Prequel. Beauty and the Beast will be the modern version of the TV show back in the 80's. First Cut will be like an ER equivalent of the movie Mean Girls. The TV show Cult will be about an Investigative journalist who investigates the growing number of suspicious macabre happenings surrounding a show called Cult (isn't that already the name of this show?) and the weird happenings of super fans taking their devotion to the show to weird and scary places in the weird world. Its seems to be kind of like Supernatural to me.
  • Jon Favreau and J.J. Abrams have a new show coming out this Fall. It is a Sci-Fi Show coming to NBC and is called Revolution.
    Here is the trailer for the show:

    As long as my work schedule isn't so heavy on the Monday's I will be watching this show!
  • Yet another show that could be good is coming to NBC. The show is called Chicago Fire and features Jesse Spencer from House, Check out the trailer below:

What a crazy random happenstance!

The Television news for the week:
  • A TV show for the movie Braveheart is in the works. It is planned to be a prequel to the blockbuster which stared crazy old Mel Gibson. The TV series will be about William Wallace before he was king focusing on his back story and the years he spent fighting to unify Scotland. So far there is no word if Mel Gibson is a part of it or what network it will be on.
  • There has been some amazing news coming from The Walking Dead this week. The famed characterMichonne, from the comic books has made a revel in Sunday nights Season 2 finale. Danai Gurira is set to play her in Season 3. Michonne is defined as a meth-addict, sword swinging lawyer who brings her zombified boyfriend and best friend with her. Its has also been confirmed that  Merle, played by Michael Rooker, will be back in Season 3. No word yet if he will be in a hallucination or if he will be in the prison waiting for the group. We already know that David Morrissey is playing the Governor in Season 3. They will start filming for Season 3 in May and Season 3 will premiere this fall on AMC.
  • Simon Pegg might be joining TNT's L.A. Noir as a regular guest star. There is no word yet on what his role will be since he is still in talks with TNT and Frank Darabont. Seems like a cool role for him since he will also be working on Star Trek 2 and MI:5. This will be his return to TV since he did Spaced back in 2001. Speaking of that, Spaced is on Netflix Instant streaming. If you like British comedy, then you will like Spaced.
  • Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog 2 is going to start filming this summer. Joss Whedon has confirmed that they are planning to film the long awaited sequel to Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog Joss Whedon has said that he has a number of songs written and has the outline ready. There is no word yet on who will be back to reprise their roles.
  • The first image of Stephen Amell in his Green Arrow costume for The CW's Green Arrow Pilot called Arrow has been released. Check it out below:

Clark Kent is Superman?! NO WAY!!!

The Television new for this week:
  • CW's Green Arrow series will be called Arrow. Writers and producers are calling the series edgy, provocative, and sophisticated. Its also planned to be not as much of a TV comic book like Smallville was. They are saying Oliver Queen is suppose to be like Jason Bourne/Rambo with arrows. If it is any good as they say it will be it may be worth a watch.
  • House is coming to an end soon. Season 8 will be its last season. Fans are being promised and Amazing Finally! I personally have not been following the show for sometime now. The show started to get repetitive and dragged on for too long. Though it is still sad to see it go of the air.
  • Remember how Smallville ended without you seeing Clack Kent wearing the Superman Suit. Well, the producers took that into consideration and are going to be releasing Smallville Season 11 as a comic book. It will pick up  six months after the TV series ended and will Follow Clark/Superman through his first year as Superman. The side character that will be in the comic are Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, Chloe Queen, Lois Lane, and Lex Luthor.  DC Entertainment are trying to have the first chapter ready to release online April 12 and a print to be released  May 16. A new Chapter will be released digitally each week and will release one month later as a psychical comic book. Here is a taste of what the comic will look like:
    smallville-season-11-cover
  • Community is coming back this spring and has a surprise ending to the season. According to Joel McHale a Male Character in the show will die at the end of the season, but it will not be one of the main Cast members. Now the only question is, who is going to die? Could it be Star-Burns? Could it be Leonard? Or could it be Magnitude aka the Pop Pop guy? And could this be the Series Finally? I guess we will just have to wait and find out.

Paranormal Activity + Lost + The Amazon= The River!

The Television news for this week:
  • Stephen Amell will play Olvier Queen, The Green Arrow, in CW's new Green Arrow TV show. Fans were hoping that it would be a direct spin-off from Smallville, where Olvier Queen was played by Justin Hartley. Stephen Amell has recently starred in shows like The Vampire Diaries, 90210, and recently cancelled Hung. DC and CW has green lighted the series and it will start production soon.
  • The River is premiering tonight and I cant wait to watch it. One of my favorite Actors, Joe Anderson, stars in this  show about a crew of explores on a quest to find a missing TV explorer in the Amazon. The show comes from the minds of  Oren Peli and Michael R. Perry, which are the minds behinde the Paranormal Activity trilogy. Check out the Full trailer here:
  • The next show I am planning to start watching is Alcatraz, The show from the mind of J.J. Abrams. I am a huge fan of his work and I havent found time to sit down and watch it yet. Either I am going to have to catch the reruns or buy it on iTunes.
  • Oh and dont forget, The Walking Dead comes back this Sunday at 9PM on AMC. I may be out of town at a concert that night so I dot think I will be able to watch it until the next day.

It’s ‘Elementary’, my dear Watson!

Today's late bit of TV news:
Yes, he is pretty Crazy!
  • Alcatraz, how was it? I missed the series premier and I want to know what you people that about it before I spend money to purchase an Episode.
  • CBS wants to create a series about a modern day Sherlock Holmes. This is pretty much that same thing PBS and BBC did in 2010. The series has a pilot in development and the title of the series is Elementary.
  • The CW is working on a Green Arrow TV series. It is suppose to have no connection to the Smallville TV series (even though it should) and supposed to be from the writers of the Green Lantern movie. I don't think this is a smart idea. Why not continue with the great base they had with the character in Smallville.
  • The Walking Dead has released some good stuff in this past week. They released the poster to the right, which is the last action you see in the last half of the second season. AMC has renewed the series for another 16 episode season, which is Awesome! They also released a clip from the upcoming episode called  NebraskaCheck it out here! The series doesn't come back until the 12th of February. Which I am going to miss since I will be out of town at a concert on that night.

P.S. Sorry about being late, I was finishing up watching the first season of Being Human, the US version, so I can start watching the second season. The first episode aired last night so now I need to catch up on that.
