Wow. Well. Let me just dive in:
- OMG YAY: A The Daily Show and The Colbert Report return with writers tonight
*happy dancing*
- HEROES writers are going back to work and, though there will not be any more eps this season, it’s very likely there will be MORE THAN 22 EPS NEXT SEASON. Can I getta W00t?!
- Saturday Night Live will broadcast 4 new shows in a row beginning on Feb. 23: Tina Fey hosts week one, and Ellen Page week two. Made of awesome.
- Showtime announced news today:
The bad: CALIFORNICATION, which I very much enjoyed, won’t be back till late summer/early fall.
The good: WEEDS returns June 16, and new shows on the horizon include POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS directed by Tim Robbins, and THE UNITED STATES OF TARA, written by Diablo “JUNO” Cody and produced by Steven Spielberg. Whoa.
- The NY Times has HBO show news: ENTOURAGE and BIG LOVE will have to premiere much later than usual due to the late start. So the former comes in the fall, and the latter near the end of this year.
- Also from NYT piece: SAVING GRACE is 3 weeks behind schedule and will premiere later in June than originally planned.
- The supercool Paley Festival panels are getting going next month and here’s an LJ comm that’s going to track everything that comes out of them…
- Supersilliest news: Fox is really, truly making a USA version of this now infamous game show. ZOMG. You need to go watch that video btw. It needs to be seen. Just once.
- Leonard Frakking Nimoy is doing The Colbert Report on Thursday!?!? *dies*
