Usually, I would put this in a late night post, but it’s my blog, I do what I want. Also, this shouldn’t be buried in a multi-video post:
Oooh… Netflix has poached Shonda Rhimes from ABC. This is huge.
Tatiana Maslany talks about that Orphan Black ending, and the possibility for a movie sometime down the road.
Two things: 1. In real life, Bronn’s mailman won’t talk to him after he shot Drogon and 2. that scorpion was a real weapon that actually worked. So that’s kinda cool.
And now the HBO hackers have released some Curb episodes. Which is bad! But clearly they can’t get their hands on the holy grail, Game of Thrones‘ final episodes, or they would have by now.
Here are a bunch of pictures of Sylvester Stallone on the set of This Is Us, and it looks like he’ll be playing one of Kevin’s fellow actors?
Renewals
- Chrisley Knows Best has been renewed by USA for a sixth season, and it will get its own aftershow, because that definitely seems necessary.
Cancellations
- Gypsy has been canceled by Netflix.
- Upscale with Prentice Penny has been canceled by TruTV after one season.
In Development
- That How I Met Your Father spinoff is getting an interesting new writer: Allison Bennett from You’re the Worst.
- NBC is developing Mosaic, a futuristic tech drama from the guys who made The Maze Runner.
- Netflix has ordered the comedy series Best Worst Weekend Ever.
- Netflix has also picked up an unnamed supernatural teen drama.
- Spike Lee is shopping a series called Archer, which might create some unnecessary confusion.
- Jay Ellis from Insecure has set his own comedy series, Hard Medicine, on the subscription service, Urban Movie Channel.
