It is being reported that CBS All Access will not be ordering a second season of One Dollar. The news does not come as much of a surprise, as the mystery thriller never really generated any substantial buzz despite garnering fairly positive critical praise. The streaming series was set in a post-recession rust-belt American town, where a one-dollar bill changing hands connected a group of people involved in a shocking multiple murder. The path of the bill paints a picture of a modern American town with deep divides among culture and class that rear their heads as the town's secrets are revealed. With today's move, One Dollar becomes the first scripted series on …

“There isn’t a film. That was all some weird fantasy going on somewhere. Look, we hopefully will do a Doctor Who film someday. It will be absolutely run by the Doctor Who production office in Cardiff. It will feature the same Doctor as on television," he assured EW. "It will not be a rebooted continuity. All of that would be insane.” Then Moffat delivered a speech not dissimilar from the famous "I am the Doctor!" speech the show's lead character delivered back in series 5: “So that whole proposal was not true, did not happen. I can say that with authority because, as far as the BBC is concerned, I’m the voice of Doctor Who. So if I say it, it’s true. The BBC own Doctor…

The news comes just days after the long-running crime procedural filmed the final scene of its now-series finale. Many saw the move coming, as the drama - at over 140 episodes - has recently felt like it was nearing the end of the road creatively.

The trailer features clips from what looks like the first five episodes of the series. One taken from "Asylum of the Daleks," or example, features the Doctor (Matt Smith), Amy (Karen Gillan), and Rory (Arthur Darvill) surrounded by hundreds -- no, thousands -- of Daleks, arranged in what looks like an auditorium or colosseum. "You've got me," the Doctor says, angrily. "At long last, here I am!" The Daleks apparently decide to exile the Doctor and his companions to a snowy planet, where they meet a new friend. We get a glimpse of the second episode of the series, "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship," which features exactly what the title says. He's so excited that Amy has to drag…

Boss, while one of the best on TV, is a low-rated show that will have to work hard to get a third season. And while freshman period piece Magic City was renewed before its first season aired, its ratings are just as bad (if not worse) than Boss's. It too will have to work for a third season.

Five new series in various stages of development have been announced, and some of them actually sound really, really promising. First is Black Sails, an eight-episode pirate series headed up by Transformers director Michael Bay. With Bay's name attached, you prob…

NBC has cancelled Revolution, opting to pull the plug on the sophomore series after two seasons. The show's Season 2 ratings have been lackluster, and far below its Season 1 numbers. Revolution got off to a strong start when it first premiered in 2012, debuting with a strong 4.1 rating in the adults 18-49 demo and staying at a 2.6 or above for the first half of the season. Viewership dipped for the back half but stayed at a respectable number to warrant a renewal. The show's second season has been a different story, with its premiere starting at a 1.8 and falling as low as 1.1 for its most-recent episode this past Wednesday. Revolution's series finale is scheduled to air …
