"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:
  
• 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.

From 'The Office' to 'The Farm'

The Television show news for the week:

• Paul Lieberstein's character Toby Flenderson might be leaving The Office soon. Paul announced that he might be leaving and The Office and heading to The Farm, the  potential Dwight-centered spin off. Paul is currently head of the writing staff and a co-producer of The Office and plays the role of Toby, the soft-spoken HR rep. In an upcoming episode of The Office, the spin off will be tested out to see how fans will take it. If it is as good as it sounds, fans might like it and it will become a show. The Farm then make a mid season 2013 debut. They have to do something soon if they are going to save The Office.  James Spader and Mindy Kaling will not be back next season. Ed Helms, John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer are still waiting to find out if they will have a job next season.
• Netflix acquires the streaming rights to BBC's soccer drama titled United. The drama stars David Tennant as Coach Jimmy Murphy, who is in who is charge of rebuilding the broken team.  United is a 90 minute telefilm that tells the tragic story of British European Airways Flight 609. That flight crashed in Munich on February 6, 1958 following takeoff. The crash killed eight of Manchester United’s football stars. It also left two players so badly injured they never played again. Sounds like a good move for Netflix since it does have David Tennant, but I would have to see it before I could judge it to much.
• Felicia Day will be making a guest appearance on the popular TV show Supernatural as a Computer Hacker.  She will play a low-level computer tech at one of Dick Roman’s companies whose amateur computer hacking gets her in trouble with the Winchester brothers. Dick Roman plays this season’s primary antagonist, if you didn't know this already. The episode is humorously titled The Girl With the Dungeons and Dragons Tattoo and will come out April 27th.
