Upfront Market: Will Auto Makers Subsidize TV Networks’ Rising Programming Costs?
15 hours ago | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »
This is a — and possibly “the” — key question for Big Media investors coming out of the major broadcast and cable networks’ upfront programming presentations this week. As the sales pitches wore on it became clear that execs plan to spare no expense to recover from a year of dreary ratings. There’ll be 25 new programs on the Big Four networks, up from 18 planned this time last year. What’s more, “all of the broadcast networks are moving toward year-round original schedules, less re-runs [and] more frequent ‘mini-events’,” Bernstein Research’s Todd Juenger says. He adds that networks continue to depend on star power — for example CBS landed Robin Williams for its sitcom The Crazy Ones and Turner enlisted off-camera help from Michael Bay (Transformers), Dick Wolf (Law & Order), Howard Gordon (Homeland), Frank Darabont (The Walking Dead), and Jerry Bruckheimer (CSI). “These guys don’t come cheap, and we presume they must participate significantly in the back-end, »

Gyllenhaal Could Head Into The Woods
16 May 2013 5:01 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »
Update: The news is still of cast members being "near to deals" rather than actually signed on, but latest to circle Into The Woods is Emily Blunt. The role she's eyeing in the Disney/Sondheim fairytale musical is the Baker's Wife, who gets cursed by the Wicked Witch (likely to be Mery Streep). As Blunt arrives, her potential screen husband possibly departs however. Reports that James Corden was on board to play the Baker were apparently premature. In fairness, with the greatest of respect to Corden, he and Blunt don't make an obvious couple. Those negotiations, presumably, are still ongoing...We can almost hear the overture starting. Yes, with Johnny Depp and Meryl Streep now on board and Jerry Bruckheimer pulling the producer’s puppeteer strings, director Rob Marshall is gathering his likely cast for new movie musical project Into The Woods. The latest potential recruits? Jake Gyllenhaal and Chris Pine. »
Big Four Nets Embrace Changes in Skedding Patterns This Fall
16 May 2013 3:09 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
The Big Four hear the footsteps of cable and have responded with an especially aggressive programming strategy for next season.
They’re trying to capture the buzz that pay-tv has generated with high-concept dramas and shorter-order series by investing in event television of their own. And they have loaded up on the one genre that cable has been unable to master: comedy.
The two-pronged approach was evident as each network — even traditional CBS — laid out their fall lineups last weeks.
ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox will air a whopping 13 new comedies in the fall, the most of any year in at least a decade. Of course, a big reason why is that only two of the 10 laffers to bow last fall are coming back — and neither Fox’s “The Mindy Project” nor ABC’s “The Neighbors” is what you’d call a hit.
But with projects starring Michael J. Fox, »

CBS' Fall Schedule: A Snap Judgment
16 May 2013 6:25 AM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »
Who says CBS doesn’t make bold programming moves? Oh, that’s right: Everyone. But everyone would be slightly wrong! At yesterday’s upfront presentation, the nation’s most-watched — if least-interesting — broadcast television network surprised reporters by revealing that it was not green-lighting two high-profile potential series: A small screen revival of Beverly Hills Cop from executive producer Shawn Ryan (The Shield) starring Brandon T. Jackson as the son of Axel Foley and a recurring Eddie Murphy; and NCIS: Red, starring John Corbett and Kim Raver. Beverly Hills Cop might find a home elsewhere, while NCIS: Red was deemed unworthy »

'Hostages' preview: Toni Collette is ordered to kill the president by Dylan McDermott on CBS
15 May 2013 7:55 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
One of three new dramas coming to CBS is "Hostages," starring Toni Collette as a high-profile surgeon who is taken hostage and told she will kill the President of the United States or the hostage-takers will kill her family.
It's part political thriller, part family drama, starring Dylan McDermott as the lead hostage-taker -- who also happens to be an FBI agent. Tate Donovan plays Collette's husband. "Hostages" comes to us courtesy of Jerry Bruckheimer, the man behind such dramas as "CSI" and "Without a Trace."
Watch the trailer above and tell us what you think. "Hostages" will air on Monday nights at 10 p.m. Et/Pt on CBS in the fall. »

Analysis: CBS Bold in Comedy, Shores Up Drama Slots for Fall
15 May 2013 12:09 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »
CBS played mostly to expectations with its fall lineup, making necessary and aggressive moves in comedy by adding a quartet of new half-hours — including two of the single-camera variety — and expanding its block on Thursday to four shows.
From a marketing perspective, CBS will be able to zero in on two nights, as Monday and Thursday are home to all five of the net’s new programs for fall. Wednesday and Sunday, meanwhile, remain intact while Tuesday and Friday replace sagging timeslots with proven crime shows moving over from other nights.

The only real mystery heading into Wednesday’s announcement was the order of the laffers, and in particular how CBS might schedule those that are single-camera, a style of comedy the net has largely shunned over the years. In something of a surprise, the Eye kept “The Big Bang Theory »

New 2013 TV Season Breakdown: CBS
15 May 2013 11:55 AM, PDT | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the fourth announced today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on CBS.
The king of the networks easily remains in charge despite "Elementary" being their only fresh hit of last season's new shows. The network's line-up remains fairly stable with only a few key moves such as Thursday being expanded to include two hours of comedy programming, and "Hawaii Five-0" moving to Fridays.
Several other pilots didn't make the cut this week including the series sequel to the "Beverly Hills Cop" movies, a TV version of the comedy "Bad Teacher", the "NCIS" mobile spin-off "NCIS: Red," a procedural based on Leif G.W. Persson's literary homicide detective Everett Backstrom, the Frank Marshall-produced political thriller "The Ordained" about a priest turned lawyer trying to save his sister from assassination, »

CBS Fall Primetime Schedule Announced; Robin Williams Comedy and Jerry Bruckheimer Drama Included in the New Additions
15 May 2013 8:37 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Unlike its broadcasting cohorts, CBS doesn't typically use its upfronts as a time to frantically throw the everything and the kitchen sink out there in the hopes one sticks. CBS knows its audience, and it's steadily successful because of it. What is so interesting with this year's upfronts then is that they actually did shake things up a little: they didn't pick up another NCIS spinoff, and they overlooked Beverly Hills Cops. Instead, CBS is adding two single-camera comedies (The Crazy Ones with Robin Williams, and We Are Men with Kal Penn) and a limited series run of Hostages, a Jerry Bruckheimer production. Though most of the CBS schedule will look familiar (crime shows, canned laughter comedy), these new additions add a level of interest to CBS's schedule not usually seen. Hit the jump for the schedule details. Monday 8 p.m. "How I Met Your Mother" 8:30 p.m. "We Are Men" 9 p. »
