Crusoe will be released on DVD on May 5th. (Box art.) It's a 'complete series' release; I really must not have been paying attention, I don't think I remember even hearing about it being cancelled. (That doesn't say much -- it's too early in the morning for me to be thinking. :P)

America's Next Top Model (Cycle 12) will premiere on March 4th.
The United States of Tara has been renewed for a second season.
Noel Fisher will be appearing in at least four episodes of Law & Order: SVU; his first episode will air in April. Fisher played the son on The Riches -- now he's on the other side of the law. :P

Drew Pearce is now adapting No Heroics for ABC.
Alex O'Loughlin will be the featured guest star in an April episode of Criminal Minds.
The BBC is remaking The Day of the Triffids & the cast is amazing -- Eddie Izzard, Vanessa Redgrave, Dougray Scott, Joely Richardson, & Jason Priestley.
On a shallow note, isn't this picture of Eddie also amazing:

Summer Glau will appear as herself on the March 9th episode of The Big Bang Theory.
The casting has been finalised for the Absolutely Fabulous adaptation & ... I think I might approve? Kristen Johnston is Patsy & Crossing Jordan's Kathryn Hahn will play Edina.
Rescue Me has already been renewed for a sixth season (of 18 episodes); the fifth season premieres on April 7th.
Lost in Austen is being turned into a movie. I guess it would be hopeless to count on them retaining Jemima, right? :/

MAJOR SPOILER ALERT -- someone is leaving Desperate Housewives. The URL will spoil it.

The first season of Raising the Bar will be released on DVD on June 2nd.

'I, Claudia' has been renamed See Cate Run & Amy Smart has been cast as the lead. Marc Blucas has also joined the cast.
Jenna Elfman is the lead in an upcoming CBS pilot, Accidentally on Purpose.
There is a movie called Pride & Predator in development. I love the summary -- 'the film will mash up Jane Austen-era period melodrama with a sudden alien attack'. XD
And the author of Pride & Prejudice & Zombies mentioned it while talking to Entertainment Weekly about the book.
Eclipse, the third Twilight movie, is scheduled to be released on June 30th of next year. Because of the rush, it looks like Chris Weitz will be unable to direct it.
Jaime Ray Newman has been cast as one of the witches in Eastwick.
Linda Hamilton has confirmed that there are ongoing negotiations regarding her involvement in Terminator Salvation.
Zack Snyder is already talking about the various Watchmen DVD releases. XD At least you'll know to save your money & wait for the version of your choice to be released.
The final & unaired episodes of Pushing Daisies will be shown at the Paley festival. ... that sucks. I wish ABC would just suck it up & air them properly.
This is a casting spoiler for the second upcoming Doctor Who special. :)
The CW's Melrose Place has been given an official pilot order.
Charisma Carpenter will be appearing on CSI later this season.
This is probably ill-placed but I also wanted to mention that Maki (Horikita) has a new drama coming in April! It sounds really interesting; I can't wait to watch it! :D
