[imgleft] [/imgleft]Conan O'Brien is done! (Or not.) Jay Leno's definitely going back to "The Tonight Show"! (Not yet, at least.) That's about the size of Thursday's (Jan. 14) news in the NBC late-night saga. There were reports and counter-reports and denials, and it all ended up in about the same place we were the day before. To sum up: TMZ reported Thursday afternoon -- not long after NBC released its post-Olympics, Jay Leno-free prime-time schedule -- that NBC and Leno had struck a deal with NBC to return as host of "The Tonight Show." NBC quickly denied it. Soon after that, People said that O'Brien's last day as "Tonight Show" host would be Jan. 22 (echoing …

[imgleft] [/imgleft]Two of the men who helped make "American Idol" the biggest show on television are in the news for other reasons. Simon Fuller, who created the "Idol" format, is leaving 19 Entertainment (which produces the series) to start his own company. Former "Idol" executive producer and current "So You Think You Can Dance" judge/producer Nigel Lythgoe has been named chairman of BAFTA's L.A. branch. Fuller had mounted an effort to buy 19's parent company, CKX, but instead opted to break off. He'll still consult with CKX, which has an option to invest in the new venture. "As an entrepreneur I feel I am about to enter my prime years, and starting a new ente…

[imgleft]http://ewausiello.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/chuck-levi-scott_240.jpg?w=240&h=320[/imgleft] Okay, this is Chucking awesome. Scott Bakula has signed on to reprise his role as Chuck’s spy daddy, Steve, for multiple episodes. Pops was last seen in the season 2 finale fleeing daughter Ellie’s wedding reception for parts unknown. Chuck exec producer Josh Schwartz calls Bakula’s comeback arc — which would fall at the end of the spy comedy’s third season (premiering this Sunday!) — “the biggest thing we’ve ever done on the show.” Bakula is currently starring in TNT’s Men of A Certain Age. With production wrapped on that show’s first season, Bakula was f…

[imgleft]http://ewausiello.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/the-oc_l.jpg?w=300&h=400[/imgleft] Julie Cooper’s comin’ to Mystic Falls! Sources confirm to me exclusively that Vampire Diaries has tapped the inimitable Melinda Clarke (The O.C., CSI) to play Kelly Donovan, Matt’s irresponsible, hard-drinking absentee mother. How rotten is this woman? She didn’t even bother to show up to her own daughter’s funeral. (In other words, my kind of gal!) I’m told Clark’s scenery-chewing boozehound will blow into town in March and stick around for at least three episodes. Memo to Kevin Williamson: Let’s get that series regular paperwork started now!

[imgleft]http://rtv6blogs.com/rtv6_gm/files/2008/05/abc_logo_hi-res.thumbnail.jpg[/imgleft]ABC is pushing the return of "FlashForward." The Thursday drama will return March 18th instead of the previously announced March 4. The series will air straight through to its finale on May 27. The show will have a two-hour premiere and a two-hour finale -- very "Lost"-esque. The move gets "FlashForward" out of the way of "American Idol" on March 4 and 11th.

[imgleft] [/imgleft]Russell T. Davies has confirmed that a fourth series of Torchwood is in the works. The show's creator revealed that he is hoping to get started on the new run in January 2010. "The recession has hit British television, but fingers crossed, it will be a go," he stated. "We expect things to start to move in January. "We've got great ideas for the show. I think there's a further lease on life for many years to come, but certainly for a [fourth season]." After the ace 3rd series 'Torchwood: Children of Earth' many believed this would be a final farewell for our Welsh heroes. Davies had confirmed that a 4th series would be moving ahead , he told To…

[imgleft]http://nerdvana.freedomblogging.com/files/2009/07/sookie_tb-300x410.jpg[/imgleft]According to True Blood creator Alan Ball, whether you’re a fan of Bill and Sookie or Sookie and Eric, season 3 of the HBO hit is sure to make you very unhappy. And, oddly, very happy, too. “Take a look at Joe [Manganiello],” he teases of the hunk he cast as the psychic’s new love interest, the werewolf Alcide. “Do you think [they] have reason to be worried?” Rhetorical questions aside, the writer is confident that, just as his new hire won him over, he’ll win over viewers. “We were looking for a guy who was big, sexy, decent and heroic, with some darkness,” he says. “And [Mangani…

[imgleft] [/imgleft]Way to go, kids! It's all your fault that Heroes will be canceled! Well, not really, but you're pushing it. According to the blog TorrentFreak, which reports on the Internet black market known as file-sharing, NBC's Heroes was the most illegally downloaded television show of 2009. The stat shouldn't be taken as gospel, however, as the site merely lists the number of downloads for a show's most popular episode and not its entire season run (not to mention that it's tough to swallow empirical data from a site with "freak" in its name). Still, TorrentFreak claims that the most-pirated episode of Heroes (the particulars of the episode were not disclosed…

In August the bandwidth supplier to The Pirate Bay was ordered by a court to disconnect the world's largest BitTorrent tracker from the Internet. Within hours the site had relocated to a new host which immediately received similar entertainment industry threats. Now it seems the Bay has left Sweden, setting sail for Ukraine. At the end of August, Stockholm's district court ordered Black Internet, the bandwidth supplier to The Pirate Bay, to disconnect the site from the Internet, pending the outcome of a civil action taken by several Hollywood entertainment companies. The ISP had little choice but to comply or face large fines, but TPB was quick to react and quickly …

In April The Pirate Bay Four were sentenced to a year in prison, and on top of that each of them was ordered to pay the entertainment industry $905,000 in damages. The defendants soon announced that they would appeal, and the date for the new trial has been set for November by the Appeal Court. Millions of BitTorrent users all around the world followed the Pirate Bay trial with great interest this February. Many had hoped that the Court would decide that operating a BitTorrent tracker is no offense, and indeed the ten day trial started off with a small victory for the defendants. On day two of the trial the prosecutor announced that half of the charges against the f…

Rumor has it that Patrick Stewart may be headed to another science-fiction franchise next year. As reported by the Daily Star, Stewart may join Doctor Who next year, and could become a regular character on the popular science-fiction series. According to the article, Stewart has been offered the role of a rival Time Lord, called "The Meddling Monk." The Meddling Monk was last seen on Doctor Who in the second and third seasons of Doctor Who in the 1960s, in the The Time Meddler and The Daleks' Master Plan episodes. The Meddling Monk was played originally by Peter Butterworth. Stewart, a big fan of Doctor Who, would like to take the part if his schedule will permit…

Hey, I have added TV Discussion Forums for 5 categories; Animation, Comedy, Drama, Reality and Sci Fi. Feel free to start your own topics or post on any existing topics about any TV Shows that fall into these categories, which will be most... I have added a few specific sub forums for specific shows, and added an "Other" forum for each genre. If there is any TV Show you think should be added rather than discussed in the "Other" forum, let me know, and I'll add it. - Imperium :)
