Comedy Writer-Producer Tucker Cawley Signs Deal With Universal Television
23 May 2012 6:02 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »
Exclusive: Emmy-winning comedy writer-producer Tucker Cawley has signed a two-year overall deal with Universal Television. Under the pact, the Everybody Loves Raymond alum will serve as executive producer/showrunner on the studio’s NBC comedy series Up All Night, which was renewed for a second season with a 13-episode order. Cawley was most recently co-executive producer on the first season of the series, created/executive produced by Emily Spivey and starring Christina Applegate, Will Arnett and Maya Rudolph. As showrunner, Cawley succeeds Jon Pollack, who moved to another NBC/Universal TV comedy series, the newly-picked up Go On. Cawley, repped by CAA and attorneys Patti Felker and Bruce Gelman, won an Emmy Award for writing the Baggage episode of CBS’ Everybody Loves Raymond and shared in the show’s two best comedy series Emmys. His series credits also include TNT’s Men Of a Certain Age and NBC’s Parks & Recreation. »

'Anchorman: The Legend Continues': Ron Burgundy returns in two teaser trailers
21 May 2012 3:30 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
The sequel to "Anchorman" hasn't even started filming yet, but the movie has already spawned multiple teaser trailers.
The Channel 4 Action News team -- the four male members of it, anyway -- will be back in 2013 in "Anchorman: The Legend Continues." The two teasers, which you can watch below, feature Will Ferrell, David Koechner, Paul Rudd and Steve Carell reprising their characters, with '70s threads and facial hair mostly intact. Christina Applegate, however, isn't around.
We are a little curious, though, as to when the sequel takes place. The end of "Anchorman" flashed forward to Ron (Ferrell) and Veronica (Applegate) anchoring a national news show, but judging by the continued presence of Ron's trademark red suit, part two will still cover the '70s.
But we're probably overthinking things a little. Better for now to watch these four guys be inappropriately funny while the Alan Parsons Project's "Sirius" plays. »

Watch: Ron Burgandy and the Channel 4 news team return in 'Anchorman: The Legend Continues' teaser
21 May 2012 12:15 PM, PDT | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
If you happened to catch "The Dictator" over the weekend you were lucky enough to get a first look at what will easily become one of next summer's most anticipated films, "Anchorman: The Legend Continues." Yes, the Channel 4 news team is back for a whole new adventure. Lead anchor Ron Burgandy (Will Ferrell), ladies man and reporter Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), Champ Kind (David Koechner) on sports and Brick Tamland (Steve Carell) delivering the weather as only he can (whether that's coherently is open for debate). Conspicuously missing is Channel 4's lady news anchor Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate). Has she »

Anchorman 2 Trailers Offer Variations of Brick Bombing His Line
21 May 2012 10:41 AM, PDT | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
The Anchorman 2 teaser trailer attached to Paramount's The Dictator made its way online this morning. As a special unexpected treat, it brought along a friend.
For what I will refer to as the theatrical Anchorman 2 teaser trailer, the San Diego Channel 4 news presenter team of Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell), Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd) & Brick Tamland (Steve Carell) & Champ Kind (David Koechner) take turns saying how awesome their next broadcast will be. After Brian makes a crack about "gene creaming," moron Brick simply reverses the words and says "it's cream in your jeans."
Over at Funny or Die, they've got an alternate take of the team offering up their thoughts. Each one dishes out a new line, and once again Brick breaks the rhythm with a completely idiotic phrase of his own. I suspect more of these teaser variations are on the way.

'Anchorman 2' Trailer: Will Ferrell And The Channel Four News Team Are Back
21 May 2012 9:05 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Uncle Jonathan's corn-cob pipe! The Channel Four News Team has reunited in the new teaser trailer for "Anchorman 2," which premiered last week in front of Sacha Baron Cohen's "The Dictator" Willed into reality by fans' bottomless love for 2004's "Anchorman," Will Ferrell confirmed in March that there would be a sequel to the comedy. Speculation was rampant as to how -- or who -- would be returning for the long-awaited installment. Initially, Ferrell was (of course) set to reprise his role as news anchor Ron Burgundy, as well as Steve Carell and Paul Rudd, but the rest of the gang -- David Koechner, Christina Applegate or Fred Willard -- were not confirmed to join. However, the first teaser shows the fearsome foursome -- Koechner included -- back in action. Up until now, details on the story have been scant, with director/writer Adam McKay telling Salon, "Keep in »

Update: There's a second teaser trailer that's just been released (one that, to be honest, is much funnier than the theatrical cut). Check that out below too. [Funny or Die, via Pajiba]
"Hey America, isn't this an old-fashioned shot to the nutsack?" Now titled "Anchorman: The Legend Continues," as promised, a teaser-trailer for the "Anchorman 2" sequel has arrived a few days after the teaser-poster landed (teases!), and after a weekend when it played in front of "The Dictator.". Starring the beloved Channel 4 news team, Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell and David Koechner, if you had any concerns about the original team not fully reuniting for "Anchorman 2," you can now officially put them to bed.
But don't look for answers about the plot. Writer/director Adam McKay has already said several times that no script is complete and all they have right now are some ideas they are tossing around. We »

Filming on the sequel doesn't begin until February, but the Channel Four News Team have reunited to give us a taste of what to expect from Anchorman: The Legend Continues. It's great to see the gang back together (Christina Applegate is expected to return, but for the time being the focus is on Ron and the boys). Next year can't come quick enough.

So You Think You Can Dance in Season 9: One Episode Per Week, but Two Winners!
18 May 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »
“Hold your breath,” says Nigel Lythgoe of So You Think You Can Dance‘s upcoming ninth season. “It’s going to be a very fast ride.”
Indeed, with Fox putting the kibosh on the reality competition’s results-show telecast, executive producer and judge Lythgoe has had to make a number of changes to the Sytycd format. Here’s what to expect when the show returns next Thursday (May 24, 8/7c on Fox):
Two winners are better than one? | “Girls dance totally differently than guys,” says Lythgoe, pointing out the apples-vs.-oranges vibe that’s pervaded most Sytycd finales. By naming »

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues Teaser Poster Unveiled
17 May 2012 2:35 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Since news dropped that an Anchorman sequel is no longer the stuff of dreams and has gone into production, people have been waiting and anticipating as much news and brand spanking new information as possible. With that, I’m pleased to say that some has arrived – in the form of a teaser poster. It’s not ground breaking, but it’s better than a kick in the face with a pair of steel-toed boots.
The poster itself speaks testament to how iconic the Channel 4 News Team have become to our generation, using just loafers and trousers we can instantly recognise what the poster is all about. If you can’t, then luckily for you there’s a huge clue at the bottom. It seems that the Adam McKay directed sequel has decided to lose the “Anchorman 2″ tag, and go with the new title of “Anchorman: The Legend »

Examining NBC’s Fall 2012 Schedule
16 May 2012 5:44 PM, PDT | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »
I’m fascinated by the current state of NBC. Last among the four major networks. Kept from the very bottom by dynasty deals like the NFL and the Olympics. A shell of its former self still propping up Jay Leno for chuckles every night. But I don’t look at the wilted Peacock with schadenfreude, like many do. Instead, it’s with sadness and nostalgia. What happened?
As an ’80s kid, I grew up watching NBC’s Saturday morning block, “Saved by the Bell,” “Alf,” Cosby, and Will Smith before he was Will Smith. The national news in our house was delivered by Tom Brokaw. I watched Michael Jordan dominate the NBA on NBC. There’s an easy joke in here about “Diff’rent Strokes” and “Baywatch.” In high school and college, we’d gather around episodes of “Friends,” “Scrubs,” “The West Wing,” and other “must see TV.” Conan O »

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues in a New Teaser Poster
16 May 2012 2:55 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Get your first glimpse of Will Ferrell and company in Adam McKay’s “Anchorman 2″ in a new poster. “Anchorman 2″ is, of course, the follow-up to 2004′s much-quoted “Anchorman”, starring Ferrell as legendary anchorman Ron Burgundy, aka San Diego’s top rated newsman. He’s a legend, you know. Well, he’s a legend in his own mind, mostly. Stay classy, Ron. Judging by the teaser poster below, it looks like all the boys are back, too. I wonder if Christina Applegate will be back, too »

First Poster for Anchorman: The Legend Continues!
16 May 2012 12:24 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
If you're a fan of Adam McKay's Anchorman, the last few months have been amazing. Not only did Paramount suddenly greenlight the sequel after everyone involved thought it was dead, but the studio got McKay and the entire Channel 4 news team (sans Christina Applegate) to shoot a teaser trailer that will be attached to prints of The Dictator! But it gets better. In addition to the teaser trailer that should be online soon, Paramount has just released the first poster and it looks like the official title is Anchorman: The Legend Continues. Hit the jump for more. For those just hearing about the sequel, last week one of our readers sent in a description of the teaser trailer: “Just got out of a screening of The Dictator. There is an Anchorman 2 teaser attached featuring the Channel 4 news team (minus Veronica) stating how excited they are to return… »

Writer/Director Adam McKay Talks Anchorman 2 Teaser Trailer; Reveals Sequel Will Not Include Ghost Rider Cameo
15 May 2012 1:54 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Though Anchorman 2 doesn’t begin production until next February, Paramount thought it’d be a nice idea to go ahead and shoot a short teaser trailer to drum up awareness. As we first reported, the teaser will be attached to prints of The Dictator and it includes the entire Channel 4 news team (sans Christina Applegate). Writer/director Adam McKay recently talked a bit about getting the gang back together to shoot the teaser and dropped a few hints about what to expect in the follow-up (no Ghost Rider, a Serpico beard, and either 3D or ½ D). Hit the jump to see what he had to say. First up, here’s Paramount’s confirmation of the teaser courtesy of the official Ron Burgundy Twitter account: “Dont get Twirter.

Fox’s Upfront Presentation Brings Out TV’s Top Players: Britney, Lea, Demi, Mila And Co.
15 May 2012 5:53 AM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »
Around the same time that the NBC stars were celebrating their new fall lineup, Fox’s Upfront presentation for advertisers was also happening in NYC. Both channels brought in their bigtime stars, but we feel Fox may just have inched ahead. This was also, in part, because of the news we published yesterday that Britney Spears and Demi Lovato were officially named as the newest judges on The X Factor.
But they were, by no means, not the only stars who came to the presentation. Fellow The X Factor judges Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid were also there. A ton of the Glee cast showed up as well. Lea Michele led the way in a lovely, delicate Pucci dress with Casadei shoes and Lorraine Schwartz jewels. Naya Rivera wore the one mullet dress we’ve ever liked, a Lublu number that she paired with Giuseppe Zanotti shoes. Jenna Ushkowitz wore a summery Rebecca Minkoff design, »

Eva Longoria, Christina Applegate, Amy Poehler Do The Peacock Proud At NBC’s Upfront
15 May 2012 4:22 AM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »
Some major television star power showed up at the NBC Upfront preview party in New York on Monday, representing a fair amount of our favorite shows and new ones we can’t wait to see. One of those would be Parks and Recreation and the shows lead, Amy Poehler looked like a stone cold fox in a Nicole Miller dress, House of Lavande jewelry and an All Saints leather jacket. Other funny ladies, Up All Night co-stars Maya Rudolph and Christina Applegate also represented. Eva Longoria was glam in a deep red Alberta Ferretti dress with Brian Atwood pumps. She probably made sure not to stand right next to Jenny McCarthy, whose sexy fuchsia shift would have clashed horribly next to it!
Other glam ladies included Law & Order: Svu‘s Mariska Hargitay wearing a white Victoria Beckham dress. She happily posed with co-stars Ice-t and Kelli Giddish. Katharine McPhee wore a floral Dolce & Gabbana dress, »

Christina Applegate adopts Emmy-winning strategy with 'Up All Night' birth episode [Video]
14 May 2012 10:28 AM, PDT | Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news »
If Christina Applegate wins an Emmy Award this September for the NBC laffer "Up All Night," she will have something in common with Jennifer Aniston, Candice Bergen, Helen Hunt and Lisa Kudrow. All of these funny ladies claimed trophies for episodes where their characters gave birth, and that is exactly the subject of Applegate's possible submission if nominated as Best Comedy Actress. In a video chat with Gold Derby, Applegate revealed that she and the flashback episode's writer Caroline Williams had babies just two weeks apart. "We kind of went on the same journey at the same time. We really brought in a lot of things that had happened personally. I got it, and I thought it was written very full," she added. "I had some great funny stuff that I got to do that was so bizarre, which is the kind of stuff I love, like singing that live song. »

Hanks to make Broadway debut as a tabloid columnist in Nora Ephron's Lucky Guy this autumn, while Zooey Deschanel will play Loretta Lynn – and a musical Charlie Chaplin comes to town
Tom Hanks, Zooey Deschanel and Downton Abbey actor Dan Stevens are among the stars making their Broadway debuts in the forthcoming autum/winter season, which will also see the debut of a musical about Charlie Chaplin.
Two-time Oscar winner Hanks will play the tabloid newspaper columnist Mike McAlary in Lucky Guy, a new play by Sleepless in Seattle writer Nora Ephron, according to the New York Post . Scheduled for a limited run at the Shubert Theatre from January 2013, the play charts McAlary's controversial career as a crime journalist, which included a high-profile libel suit and a Pulitzer prize, before he died of colon cancer aged 41.
Hanks's last stage appearance was a one-off benefit reading of The Comedy of Errors »

NBC Cancels Harry's Law and Awake

NBC has announced that it has canceled "Harry's Law," the legal drama starring Kathy Bates. Also gone are "Are You There, Chelsea?," "Bent," "Best Friends Forever" and "Awake." "Awake" is a dual-universe series about a cop (Jason Isaacs) who loses his wife in one realm and his son in another. It received lots of critical praise, but failed to find an audience. It has already been revealed that there will be no attempts to revive the show on cable. Meanwhile, the network renewed "Parks and Recreation" for a fourth season, "Up All Night, " starring Christina Applegate, Will Arnett and Maya Rudolph, for a second season, and "Whitney" for a second season. »
Maya Rudolph doubles Emmy chances with 'Up All Night' and 'SNL' [Video]
11 May 2012 6:13 PM, PDT | Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news »
Fresh from the success of the film "Bridesmaids," Maya Rudolph returned to her TV roots. This season, she impressed with both her return to "Saturday Night Live" for the first time as host and as a supporting player on the NBC comedy series "Up All Night." Former "SNL" writer Emily Spivey developed the role of daytime diva Ava Alexander on "Up All Night" for her friend of 15 years(they met in the improv group The Groundlings). The character is best friends with Reagan Brinkley (Christina Applegate). The pair were slated to be in public relations before a change in focus put them in the world of daytime television. In a video chat with Gold Derby, Rudolph revealed, "positive mental imagery" played a part in the switch. "Luck played a big part of it. I just thought it was a bigger and more fun choice. I thought it was an environment where we could do more. »
