Don Draper for President!!!

The Television news for the week:

• Netflix is in talks with ABC to purchase The River. The River to me is a good show and I don't understand why the Paranormal Activity franchise is good, but not The River. I like that Netflix is trying to acquire shows that may otherwise not be released. With Netflix already bring Arrested Development back and taking over Terra Nova, this a good move for them. I hope the deal goes through.

• The cost of Don Draper in today's society. This little info graphic about the famous Mad Men character and how much it would cost in today's world to still be the Don Draper from 1962. Check it out below:
  
  
  
• More details about the Smallville Season 11 Comic book has been released. Here are some things you need to know about it:
• There will be more Superman then Clark Kent
• It will be kind of like Superman: Year One with the Smallville cast
• Chloe and Oliver are married. they want to move to Star City, but cant because of something that happens in the first 12 weeks of their marriage. Maybe a Baby? Maybe more of saving the world?
• Will have a lot of DC character guest stars just like the show had.
• Comes out as a digital comic in April and in print in June
• Here are the covers of the first 2 issues:
• Issue #1:

  They also released TV spots that wants fans to pledge their allegiance to their favorite noble house of Westeros. I would have posted them here, but there are 5 different TV spots and I didn't think you guys wanted a post filled with 6 videos and barley anything else. They are all on HBO's website if you want to see them.

Thanks for reading today's post, as always leave a comment down below about anything or the question of the day, which is: 

QOTD: Which Noble House of Westeros are you pledging your allegiance to?

Thank You to the Loyal Fans!!

The Television news for the week:

• Monk is returning to TV, but this time it will be a TV Movie. Yep, thats exactly what I said. The TV movie will be called: Mr. Monk for Mayor. If you cant get the plot from that, then you have some issues. If you are like me, then you have been waiting for this for a pretty long time. I watched the show all the time and I want to know what happens next in Adrian Monk's life. It is set to air on USA in December and they are already talking about sequel to it.

• Community returns to NBC on March 15th and will take it usual Thursday nights at 8PM time slot. The loyal fans have done it again. The only problem I have with this is now that I am a fan of The Big Bang Theory, it is going to be hard to choose which one to watch. Looks like right now it will be Community!

• The Last Airbender: Legend of Korra series is actually going to happen. Here is the trailer to  Nickelodeon's series, Avatar: The Last Airbender:
  
  (I think they are trying to clean up the mess that the live action movie brought to the series.)

• FINALLY!!! The role of The Governor has been cast and has been given to British actor, David Morrissey. Season 3 has already been signed for 16 episodes. Filming will start soon and I was hoping that they would have cast the role of  Michonne already. Unless she will not be in Season 3.

• James Spader will be leaving The Office at the end of the 8th season. Could this mean that The Office will be closing down soon? Unless that can bring in a new leader, I dont think it will be around much longer. It will be sad to watch the show go off the air, but it is nice to put a dying show to rest. But dont forget about  the Dwight Schrute spin-off where he runs his families Bed and Breakfast.

• CBS's Elementary Series has taken a turn for the worst.  Johnny Lee Miller could play a good Sherlock, but  Lucy Liu as Watson? Its like having Wonder Women played by a man! It can not be successfully done. Arthur Conan Doyle is rolling over in his grave right now. I would rather watch BBC's Sherlock series then watch this. I may end up doing that anyways.

• 
  Dragons: The Series looks like a good show for kids. I saw the movie, but dont plan on seeing the show. I just hope the original cast is back in it.

• Here is a list of TV Shows I have been watching in Marathon format lately:
• Scrubs
• The Office
• The Walking Dead
• The Big Gang Theory
• Mad Men
• Psych
• Community
• Supernatural
• Eureka
• How I Met Your Mother
• 24
• Arrested Development
• Sons of Guns
• The Colony
• Being Human US Version
• Surviving The Cut
• Spiderman
• The A-Team
• America: The Story of Us
• As you guys can tell, I have no life and I love Netflix Instant Streaming! I wish I could get a partnership with them.

The Mythbusters mess up?

The TV news for today:

• The Munsters reboot will go through a lot of changes to try and make it in Television today. Besides it being Darker and Edger, some of the characters will change. The family is forced to move after Eddie Munster, who is unaware that he is a werewolf, changes and attacks some of his fellow scouts on a scouting trip.  Grandpa Munster is now a 600 year old shapeshifter instead of being a Vampire.  Lily Munster now has an eating disorder and eats suicide victims. And last but not least  Marilyn Munster is adopted into the family after her cannibalistic birth mother tries to eat her when she was and infant. To me it seems like a cross between True Blood and Modern Family. Hoping the show doesn't kill the idea of the old Munsters TV Show.
• The Mythbusters have some mishap while filming one episode. While filming an episode a cannon ball misses its target and goes flying through a California neighborhood damaging a house and a Minivan. No one was hurt and the accident is now under investigation. The Episode will most likely not air. Click the link here to see the news video where Adam and Jamie apologize and to get more detail about the accident. Mythbusters Mishap
• Ice Cube to star in FX series called Eye for an Eye. He is set to play a Paramedic turned murderous  Vigilante. Seems to me like a ripoff of the popular show Dexter.
• Also FX has signed Russell Brand to do a late night unscripted show. It will turn into his show where he can do what ever he wants without having to  apologize  for it.
• And last but not least Hell on Wheels has been renewed for a second season. After being leading by the already popular The Walking Dead, the show has been bringing in 2 Million views per episode. I havent seen an episode yet, but for being a Western I hear it is a good show. It will join Mad Men, Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, and The Killing on AMC, where things just keep getting better and better.
