We’ve been waiting for news about the Amazon Studios Lord of the Rings television series, and today the streaming service revealed that JD Dayne and Patrick McKay are currently developing one. The pair were selected after an exhaustive search sources report, and will be overseeing a writers room for the first (of possibly additional) series set in the world […]

Five years ago during San Diego Comic-Con, there was a pressroom for the yet-to-be-released revamp of Cosmos, and I was one of the 4 people who attended the pressroom.  It had been scheduled up against Supernatural or some such show, and it was so disappointing to see so few members of the press interested in speaking with […]

Buried in the Star Wars: Episode IX casting confirmations today came the news that our dearly departed Carrie Fisher will indeed be returning to the galaxy far, far away as Princess General Leia Organa. In the big announcement posted today on Star Wars.com was the information (along with a statement) about how J.J. Abrams will be including Fisher’s […]

With no new Star Wars: Episode IX news coming out of last week’s San Diego Comic-Con, Disney and Lucasfilm have chosen to reveal a pretty big parcel of information today: the official cast list for the J.J. Abrams-directed (and still yet to be titled) Episode IX. In a press release posted to the official Star Wars.com website, […]

Sometimes for Outlander fans, it feels like the waiting period between seasons (called ‘Droughtlander’ for the uninitiated) will never end. But STARZ does a pretty great job of whetting our Sassenach appetites during the lean times, showing just enough without giving anything away. Today is another example of this, with a brand-new behind-the-scenes photo featuring Jamie (Sam Heughan) […]

It appears that Apple is in the process of closing a bid to secure the rights to turn Terry Gilliam’s Time Bandits film into a tv series, which they are actively planning on developing. It’s been a tough and yet awesome year for Gilliam fans, as his almost 30-year epic quest to finish and release The Man Who […]

Showtime is home to one of those special “real world” series that continues to bend the genre on what a family drama can be. We’re speaking, of course, of the much-acclaimed Shameless. The series was renewed for a ninth season, and we’ve finally got our first look at what the next season will hold for the Gallagher […]

Netflix series Altered Carbon has FINALLY been officially picked up for a second season. We say finally, because we were totally expecting it months earlier. The series is based on Richard K. Morgan’s Altered Carbon novels, which detail futuristic worlds where humans are able to download their memories into stacks (think cpu chips) that can be implanted […]

Netflix reminded us all today (as if we could forget) that season 6 of their award-winning dramedy Orange Is the New Black hits the streaming service TONIGHT at midnight. See ya at midnight. pic.twitter.com/1kY1KSEGha — Orange Is the New… (@OITNB) July 26, 2018 Will you binge it all in one go, or will you parcel it […]

Perhaps you’ll recall the news that broke in the middle of SDCC this year that the much-beloved tv series Buffy the Vampire Slayer was getting a reboot. This was met pretty immediately with skepticism on the part of “why?” and also “no, but really, why?” The original news also included mention of Monica Owusu-Breen taking the role of […]
