All Things: TELEVISON

Pretty excited for Revolution. The premise of the story isn't too bad... we'll see how they execute it.

I liked Go On. I didn't know what to expect, but it was better than what I originally assumed anyway.

The only NBC show that they've been advertising that I don't care for is Animal Practice.

C'mon...Tyler Labine is gonna get 'showkiller' attached to his name if that doesn't work out. F you WB I want more Reaper!!!!!
 
Matthew Perry is as funny as a rusty post, lol, I would rather watch some stupid Jennifer Aniston movie over his crap shows.

And to add to this Lizzy Caplan is actually dating him, honestly? :repuke:

Like you couldn't do better, Lizzy?

And people wonder why I am an atheist. Haha! rolleyes:
 
Revolution is the only new NBC show I remotely have an interest in, and it will probably end up being hokey and cancelled after 10 episodes. I am a sucker for large sharp objects, even if the power going out really shouldn't affect firearms.

The three comedies NBC advertises nonstop during the Olympics look horrible. Hopefully they will all be cancelled quickly enough that Community actually gets a full season. Six seasons and a movie!
 
NBC Plans Super Villain Themed Drama | CraveOnline

After the demise of "Heroes," NBC made another stab at the comic book superhero genre with "The Cape;" which ran for a single season last year. For its next attempt, NBC is jumping to the wrong side of the law.

Deadline is reporting that Universal TV and Film 44 have signed a deal to develop "Hench" for NBC. The premise for "Hench" centers upon an ordinary man who supports his family by doing temp jobs for various super villains. And if it's following the classic comic book traditions, that means heists, bank robberies and villainy on a grand scale. Of course, that also implies that superheroes will be around as well.

"Hench" was created by playwright and screenwriter, Alexandra Cunningham; who most recently wrote and produced the U.S. incarnation of "Prime Suspect" for NBC. Cunningham has also written for HBO's "Rome," "Fastlane," "NYPD Blue" and "Pasadena." She also has the distinction of having penned more episodes of "Desperate Housewives" than any other writer except series creator, Marc Cherry.

Peter Berg and Sarah Aubrey will executive produce "Hench" alongside Cunningham. The potential "Hench" TV series is expected to be in contention for the Fall 2013 season.

brilliant idea...would be good on AMC or FX. NBC will botch it by making him a good guy even though he is working for villains.

For what it's worth GRIMM back tonight kiddies.
 
Did anyone watch Copper? I thought it was okay. It doesnt seem to have the budget of some other shows on cable. There were a few scenes where you could tell they were on a set.
 
NBC lands Michael J. Foxs return to series TV


Mixed feelings here. It will apparently be based on his life as it has become...which is terribly sad territory for a sitcom. I get that it helps to put the disease in a public light but really how funny can this be? I have profound & deep respect for Michael J Fox for doing this but I don't want to feel sorry for him. I wish him nothing but luck and I will be watching.
 
I'll go out on a limb and make the early prediction that the Shrute Farms spinoff will be terrible and get unofficially cancelled halfway through its one season, but allowed to finish the season before disappearing.
 
From the 'are you ****ting me' department...

Utah station wont air NBCs upcoming The New Normal

"Glee" creator Ryan Murphy's upcoming NBC comedy "The New Normal" may not be seen by TV viewers in Utah.

The state's KSL station is saying it won't broadcast the sitcom once it starts airing in September.

KSL's official reason for passing on the show are that it contains "Crude dialogue, explicit content and offensive characterizations," but some are saying that the station made its decision based on the show's positive portrayal of a gay couple acting as parents.

The show centers on a same sex couple (Justin Bartha and Andrew Rannells) who have a child through a surrogate mother named Goldie (Georgia King).

"After viewing the pilot episode of 'The New Normal,' we have made the decision to keep it off our fall schedule," Jeff Simpson, CEO of KSL parent company Bonneville International, told The Deseret News. "For our brand, this program simply feels inappropriate on several dimensions, especially during family viewing time.”
