Another abandoned television series this week: ABC Network has passed on their Hannah Simone-starring Greatest American Hero reboot. In a since-deleted tweet, the New Girl actress Simone commented that “network tv isn’t ready for the first brown female superhero on tv.” The text from the tweet (which numerous outlets ran) said: We just found out that network tv […]

This week was a tough one for tv watchers across all networks, but perhaps one of the most surprising cancellation reveals was SYFY’s ever-popular The Expanse.  Based on the Hugo Award winning series by James S. A. Corey (pen name of Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck), the tv version has been on the cable network for 3 […]

Yes, we’re a little late writing up the reaction roundup from the world premiere of Solo: A Star Wars Story, but in our defense it was because of the tv cancellations. So two nights ago, with the Millennium Falcon parked just outside the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood, the second stand-alone Star Wars film premiered to a […]

What an eventful 48 hours for the canceled FOX series Brooklyn Nine-Nine. After what looked like an uncertain future even though the powers that be where doing everything they could to find a new home for the five-season show, it looks like we have a happy ending after all. NBC Universal has picked up the comedy […]

After the TV bloodshed day yesterday, it’s nice to get at least some kind of explanation as to why FOX cancelled five shows including The Exorcist, The Last Man on Earth, The Mick, Lucifer, and Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Fan reception was, of course, swift — #SaveLucifer started trending quickly after the official word came down. Notable entertainment personalities such as Lin-Manuel […]

Remember when the Star Wars standalone films were announced (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Solo: A Star Wars Story)? Almost immediately, there were rumors everywhere that the third title could very well be Kenobi: A Star Wars Story. Long rumored to be happening, especially after General “Hello There” Kenobi  prequel actor Ewan McGregor sported a decidedly Jedi-esque beard during […]

The 6th and final season of FX’s Cold War era spy drama series The Americans continues with episode 7, “Harvest”. Last week, Elizabeth (Keri Russell) was sent on a mission to Chicago to protect an asset, code named Harvest. She couldn’t do it alone, and Philip Jennings (Matthew Rhys) begrudgingly says he’ll come and help her. […]

David Duchovny isn’t just that guy from The X-Files, and perhaps it’s time more fans acknowledge that. I say this because earlier this week, I spent an evening at a book signing with the author of the newly released “Miss Subways”, his third published novel. To explain: I was really excited to attend this event, as […]

It’s a week full of Rick Moranis apparently. After retiring from acting in the mid-’90s, the Canadian comedian returned to the biz (at least in voice form) on last night’s episode of ABC sitcom The Goldbergs.  As we’d reported, he was reprising his Spaceballs character Dark Helmet, the doll-playing spoof on Darth Vader. Turns out that won’t […]

After much nail biting, STARZ has announced they will indeed be ordering 2 more seasons of drama series Outlander. STARZ Chief Chris Albrecht offered a statement about the pickup to Variety: “Fans can rest assured their beloved Claire and Jamie will be back facing new challenges, adversaries and adventures in seasons five and six as we delve […]
