New CBS comedy 'Partners': Did it already air on Fox ... 17 years ago?
16 May 2012 8:51 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
We here at Zap2it noticed something a little strange in looking at the resume of TV legend James Burrows ("Taxi," "Cheers," "Friends") Wednesday morning (May 16) following the CBS upfronts announcement of their new 2012-13 lineup: "Partners," a new comedy for which Burrows directed the pilot, is already on his list of credentials -- a sitcom from 1995 also named "Partners."
And there are more similarities than just Burrows as a director. CBS describes "Partners" as "two life-long best friends and business partners whose 'bromance' is tested when one of them is engaged to be married." The lead characters (played by David Krumholtz and Michael Urie) are architects, and Krumholtz's fiancee is named Ali.
The 1995-96 comedy from Fox is described as "Best friends Bob and Owen work together as aspiring young architects on the rise, their relationship complicated by Owen's recent engagement to Alicia."
Weird, right? Disappointingly, co-creator David Kohan »

'Chicago Fire' to 'Hannibal': A grand unified theory of NBC's new shows for 2012-13
15 May 2012 1:36 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
So we're in the swing upfronts week, and after the blizzard of news Monday (May 14), we settle in to watch the trailers for NBC's very large slate of new series. And somewhere between "Chicago Fire" and "The New Normal," a pattern starts to emerge.
Yes, all these shows are on the same network, but could there be something more? We dig deeper. Suddenly we're like the little boy on "Touch" (which, Ok, is on Fox, but go with us here for a minute), seeing patterns where most people just see randomness. Surely it's a sign of something -- perhaps nothing more than having been up since 5 a.m., but maybe ... there's more. Consider:
"Chicago Fire" introduces us to characters who are dealing with the loss of one of their own a month earlier. So does ...
"Go On," in which we learn Matthew Perry's character lost his wife a month ago. »

Trailers and Clips for a Ton of New Shows on NBC
14 May 2012 3:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
NBC has released a bunch of trailers and clips for a new collection of TV series that they have been developing. We've got stuff from 1600 Penn, Infamous, Save Me, Next Caller, Do No Harm, The New Normal, Guys With Kids, and Go On. It will be interesting to what shows make it and what shows end up on the chopping block. Check out the trailers and clips and let us know which ones look good to you!
1600 Penn:
“1600 Penn” — The Gilchrists are just the average American family dealing with all the everyday issues – like a grown kid who’s forced to move back home, children who are smarter than their teachers and a stepmom (Jenna Elfman, “Dharma and Greg”) desperately trying to win over the kids. They’re loving, fun and a little crazy. In other words, just like everybody else. With one exception: they live in a very special house. »

13 May 2012 10:03 PM, PDT | backstage.com | See recent Backstage news »
NBC announced that it has picked up the new drama "Infamous" for mid-season, which will apparently give the network enough time to recast a principal role.

The show is described as a "Revenge"-type primetime soap. Victor Garber, Tate Donovan, and Ella Rae Peck also star.The role that is being recast is a handsome, bad-boy womanizer and the brother of the murdered heiress. Jackson played the part in the pilot, which was then titled "Notorious."Casting directors Julie Tucker and Ross Meyerson cast the pilot. Tucker and Meyerson's previous television credits include. »

NBC's 2012-2013 Schedule: 'Community' Moves To Fridays, Plus Preview New Shows
13 May 2012 12:42 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
In advance of their official Upfronts presentation on Monday, NBC jumped the gun to be the first network to unveil their complete 2012-2013 schedule on Sunday.
The biggest story? "Community" is moving to Fridays, along with sophomore sitcom "Whitney," which will kick off that rather random new night of programming.
"Smash" is also being bumped -- all the way to midseason -- to make way for the premiere of "Revolution," a new thriller from J.J. Abrams and Eric Kripke, which will air after "The Voice" on Mondays. And yes, that means "The Voice" will be back in the fall, giving it two cycles a year, as predicted.
NBC will also try their hand at airing comedies on Tuesday nights, with Matthew Perry's "Go On" and Ryan Murphy's "Th New Normal" getting paired together.
Also being saved for midseason are new sitcoms "Save Me," "1600 Penn" and "Next Caller," and new dramas "Do No Harm, »

First Look Images At Meagan Good In NBC's New Murder Mystery Series Pick-up "Infamous"
11 May 2012 3:55 PM, PDT | Indiewire Television | See recent Indiewire Television news »
Of all the new series/pilots ordered for next season, I'll say that this is one I'm really intrigued by - partly because I have absolutely no idea what to expect from it. It seemed like an out-of-the-box pick for NBC - one that I didn't see coming - and I'm definitely curious. But I'm looking forward to finally seeing something of it, by way of a trailer, clips, etc, soon. It's described as an "opulent soap" starring Meagan Good as detective Joanna Locasto, a female detective who returns undercover to the wealthy family she grew up in - as the maid's daughter - to solve the murder of the notorious heiress who was once her closest friend - celebutante Vivian Lawson. Previously titled Notorious, NBC ordered the series and renamed it Infamous, with Laz Alonso, Victor Garber, Tate Donovan, and Katherine Lanasa co-starring. Laz Alonso is slated to play. »

30 Rock Renewed for Final Season; NBC Picks Up Do No Harm, Infamous
NBC has officially picked up its critically acclaimed comedy 30 Rock for a final season of 13 episodes. It had long been rumored that season 7 would be the show's last; the only questions that remain are what the show will be paired with and if it will finish its run in fall or spring. 30 Rock has been an awards magnet for NBC, snatching up 12 Emmys, 6 Golden Globes, and 3 Producers Guild of America Awards in its six seasons.
Meanwhile, the network has given its third drama pickup to Do No Harm, a medical drama that stars Steven Pasquale of FX's Rescue Me. The show tells the story of a neurosurgeon that does battle with his dangerous alter-ego to keep it hidden from the rest of the world. It also features Phylicia Rashad in her first regular TV role in almost two »

Ben Affleck new film trailer – Argo
8 May 2012 12:30 PM, PDT | Hollywoodnews.com | See recent Hollywoodnews.com news »
HollywoodNews.com: I haven’t read the true story that this film is based on (if you want to, here’s the Wired story). But the general idea seems like just the sort of great story that lends itself to a fun movie. And the film is filled to the gills with terrific character actors (John Goodman, Bryan Cranston, Victor Garber, Kyle Chandler, Tate Donovan, Phillip, Adrienne Barbeau, and my personal favorite, Zeljko Ivanek, etc).
And while I’m among those who didn’t care for The Town, I’m a big fan of Affleck’s Gone Baby Gone so he’s still batting a solid 0.500 so far. My only carp is with the trailer itself. It’s a 150-second spot that clearly divided into three acts. The first 45-seconds or so explains the time, setting, and political crisis that kicks the story into gear, while the middle 45-seconds goes »

There was a time not so very long ago when it appeared Ben Affleck would simply fade away to irrelevance as a string of poor decisions eroded his acting star power steadily away. And then it turned out he wasn't a half bad director. A pretty damn good one, actually, and now he's back in that chair once again with Argo.Based on true events, Warner Bros.

'Argo' Trailer Shows Off Ben Affleck's Latest
8 May 2012 11:19 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
In searching for a screen capture to use for the above image while skimming through this new trailer for Argo I came across the above moment. Referring to Argo as "from Ben Affleck the director The Town" was interesting to me. People know who Ben Affleck is and Affleck even stars in the film and is featured throughout the trailer, is the addition of "the director The Town" necessary and if so what does it add? Otherwise, this is a film I think we are all interested in seeing, if for no other reason than Affleck has shown to be a competent director and one I'd even argue did a much better job with Gone Baby Gone rather than The Town. As for Argo, it's based on true events, chronicling the life-or-death covert operation to rescue six Americans, which unfolded behind the scenes of the Iran hostage crisis--the truth of »

Ben Affleck's 70s Set Hostage Thriller Argo Gets a Trailer
8 May 2012 9:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Warner Bros. has released a great trailer for Ben Affleck's new film Argo. The movie is based on a true story told in a Wired magazine article by Joshuah Bearman, called How the CIA Used a Fake Sci-Fi Flick to Rescue Americans from Tehran. It tells the story of "how the CIA and the Canadian government teamed to rescue six U.S. diplomats who'd been taken hostage at the American embassy by a group of Iranians in 1979. The CIA's ruse involved the explanation that the six hostages were actually a Hollywood film crew scouting a movie titled "Argo," and using those fake identities, they were able to flee the country."
It looks like Affleck did a great job bringing this story to life, and I'm looking forward to seeing the film. It looks like it will be a fun yet intense political thriller.

Wow. It’s done already? Or close enough that they were able to cut a trailer, anyway. Last I heard, they were just casting this thing, but apparently ever since he became a director, Ben Affleck has developed something of a Clint Eastwood style of filmmaking, because he sure got this thing done fast. Check out the first trailer for Affleck’s “Argo” (in which he also stars), due out later this year. Based on true events, Warner Bros. Pictures’ and Gk Films’ dramatic thriller “Argo” chronicles the life-or-death covert operation to rescue six Americans, which unfolded behind the scenes of the Iran hostage crisis–the truth of which was unknown by the public for decades.

‘Argo’ Trailer Is The Best Bad Idea Ben Affleck’s Had as a Director
8 May 2012 7:30 AM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
Remember when Ben Affleck, Alan Arkin, Bryan Cranston, John Goodman, Richard Kind, Scoot McNairy, Chris Messina, Michael Parks, Kerry Bishe, Kyle Chandler, Rory Cochrane, and Tate Donovan all got together to make a movie about a fake movie being made in order to rescue hostages being held in Iran? This trailer is one more slice of proof that Affleck knows what the hell he’s doing behind a camera, especially when it comes to the slightly funny world of serious issues. Instead of crime-riddled Boston, this time it’s the Iranian Hostage Crisis, a fake script called Argo and a crazy attempt at rescuing 6 people. It’s Ocean’s Eleven except the stakes are real, and they’re life-or-death. Check out the trailer for yourself: Truly excellent work here. Hopefully the full film will live up to the tension, but all the pieces of the puzzle are in place. Source: The Film Stage »
