Fox Announces Fall Schedule – Get A Look At The New Shows While You Can
18 May 2012 9:09 AM, PDT | AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news »
It’s that time of year, and the networks are revealing their schedules for fall. Fox is always an interesting network when it comes to the upfront season, because they usually don’t have a lot of changes, but they often have fascinating (if doomed) series on the horizon.
The full schedule is below, as are breakdowns of the specific shows, along with trailers, and I want to make sure to point out that they are likely to expire very soon, so you want to catch them while you can.
The really big news for fall is that Glee is moving. The not so big news is that mid-week primetime is still going to be taken over by reality shows. Good news, though not quite news at this point, is that fans of Bones and Fringe are going to get more of their favorite shows, despite the fact that both »

How I Met Your Mother Season 8: A New Love Interest For...
15 May 2012 1:59 PM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
So that's Barney's bride!
The How I Met Your Mother season 7 finale delivered multiple surprises, from the return of Victoria to the reveal of Robin as the future Mrs. Stinson. Really, could it have been anyone else?
Now, in an interview with TV Line, executive producer Craig Thomas teases what it will all mean for season eight and beyond. Warning: spoilers ahead...
-------------------------------------------
Will there be wedding bells? Yes. "There’s going to be twists and turns built into that day."
Will Quinn return? Yes, even though Becki Newton has been cast on The Goodwin Games. The Season 8 premiere will pick up on the same day as this finale. “There’s a lot of great stories to tell just in that one day," Thomas says. "Episode 2 will leap ahead to September, and we’ll see where everybody is four months later.”
There will be a "significant arc" for Robin involving a new love interest. »

How I Met Your Mother Finale: Barney's Bride is [.....]!!!!

How I Met Your Mother Finale: Barney's Bride is [.....]!!!!
Ever since last year’s season finale of How I Met Your Mother, fans of the long running sitcom have been clamoring to find out just whom Barney Stinston will marry. Back then we thought, is it possible, could Nora have changed Barney and now they’re going to get hitched? Or could it be someone we hadn’t met yet? Or better yet, could it be the obvious love of his life, Robin?
Well, during the seventh season finale, we were handsomely rewarded for our patience when we found out that…
Yes! Robin Is Barney’S Bride!! Excuse us while we do a happy snoopy dance and jump and shout with glee!!
Ok, Ok, we’re done.
Wait, one more time! Ok, now we're done!
Frankly, it would have been a major let down if Barney’s bride turned out »

'How I Met Your Mother' Finale Answers One of the Series' Biggest Questions
14 May 2012 10:13 PM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »
Almost two years after first offering a glimpse at Barney's (Neil Patrick Harris) wedding, somewhere in the increasingly near future, How I Met Your Mother wrapped up its seventh season by revealing the identity of his bride. Photos: Broadcast TV's Returning Shows for 2012-13 Season And the revelation did not come easily. The recent season found the show's eternal bachelor becoming something of a serial monogamist, spending the first half with Nora (Nazanin Boniadi) and the second half with Quinn (Becki Newton). Along the way, he seemed to exhaust his last shot with former flame Robin (Cobie Smulders). Barney's

Mindy Kaling and 'Ben and Kate' get romantic: First impressions of Fox's 2012-13 comedies
14 May 2012 9:30 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
The fine people at Fox must've been feeling really romantic recently, because the network's new comedies capture the essence of everyone's favorite rom-coms. Judging by the trailers of Mindy Kaling's new series and the other two 2012-13 comedies shown at Fox's upfront presentation in New York City on May 14, the shows lean toward the rom more than the com.
Could the sentimental tone of Kaling's "The Mindy Project" and its fellow fall comedy "Ben and Cate" turn off male viewers? The trailers were full of swelling music and sweet moments, and not nearly as many gut-busting laughs as we're used to from Fox's sitcoms. Here are a few first impressions of the new comedies, two of which premiere in the fall and the last of which will debut at midseason:

'The Goodwin Games': Scott Foley and Becki Newton compete for $20 million in new Fox comedy
14 May 2012 5:09 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
The executive producers of "How I Met Your Mother" are bringing us yet another comedy concept that leads us to ask the question, "Can that really take more than one season to wrap up?" "The Goodwin Games" is a single-camera comedy coming to Fox that tells the story of three grown siblings who return home after their father's death to discover they stand to inherit more than $20 million -- if they take part in a series of unique tasks, including a special game of Trivial Pursuit against one another.
Scott Foley ("Grey's Anatomy," "Felicity") plays Henry, the eldest child and an overachieving surgeon. Becki Newton ("Ugly Betty") is middle sibling Chloe, "the smart one" in the family who now serves shots for a living. And Jake Lacy ("Better With You") plays the youngest sibling, Jimmy, the family screw-up who's just gotten out of jail. Beau Bridges guest-stars as the dad »

'How I Met Your Mother' birth: Ted is perhaps too excited for Lily
14 May 2012 3:06 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
"How I Met Your Mother" wraps up its seventh season Monday (May 14) with a double whammy of finale life-changers: a wedding (Barney's) and a birth, of Lily and Marshall's child.
The show has kept the identity of Barney's (Neil Patrick Harris) bride -- Quinn (Becki Newton)? Robin (Cobie Smulders)? Someone else? -- on lockdown, but we do know that Lily (Alyson Hannigan) is giving birth, having gone into labor in the most recent episode. Marshall (Jason Segel) makes it back from his Atlantic City bender in time for the big event, and their friends are naturally excited to meet baby Eriksen.
Maybe a little too excited. The show has set up a website called Lilysinlabor.com, which features a video of Ted (Josh Radnor) making the birth pretty much all about him. It's vintage "Himym" viral marketing, and it's pretty funny too. (You can watch the video at the top of the post. »

Look out for guests stints from "Saturday Night Live" star Bill Haden and Kaling's former "Office" co-star Ed Helms in the trailer below.

Move over, New Girl — there’s a new new girl coming to Fox for the 2012-13 TV season: Mindy Kaling as an adorably lovelorn gynecologist. And she’s not alone. The network’s also got Kevin Bacon playing a serial killer-stopper and Jordana Spiro as a fearless Mob doc.

It's mid-May, and in the world of television that can only mean one thing: the television network upfronts are announced, and we find out what shows have been cancelled and what's coming for the fall 2012 TV season.

Fox is shaking things up for its upcoming 2012-2013 TV season with five new shows -- three comedies and two dramas -- and moving around some old favorites.

As for the new content, Mindy Kaling's new comedy about a young Ob/Gyn, which is currently being referred to as "The Mindy Project" (after "Mindy" and "It's Messy" were thrown around), and "Ben and Kate," about a pair of odd-couple sibling, join Fox's all-new Tuesday night comedy block, sandwiched between "Raising Hope" and "New Girl."

New TV Season Breakdown: Fox
14 May 2012 7:18 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 second announced today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on Fox.
Former stalwart "House" is done, last year's two new high-concept dramas "Terra Nova” and “Alcatraz" fizzled, and ratings juggernaut "American Idol" saw quite a precipitous drop-off this past season. Yet the Murdoch network remains robust with last year's successful launch of "New Girl" and "The X Factor" helping cover up the deficiencies. The new schedule boasts two important elements - another attempt to launch a four show comedy block on Tuesdays despite failed attempts in the past, and the move of "Glee" to the prestigious (but competitive) Thursday 9pm slot.
Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't be seen including the spy-as-a-photojournalist thriller "The Asset", the Cuba Gooding Jr.-led legal drama »

"Touch" also moves to Friday night as a lead-in to "Fringe" at 9 p.m. Et/Pt.
The network also announced the new shows it has picked up, which includes two new half-hour comedies titled "The Mindy Project" and "Ben and Kate," which will join current half-hour programs "Raising Hope" and "New Girl" for a Tuesday night comedy block.
"The Mindy Project" features Mindy Kaling (above, right) of "The Office" as a Bridget Jones-like Obgyn and "Ben and Kate" is a sibling comedy about a Type-a single mom sister and her more Bohemian, won't-grow-up younger brother. It stars newbie Dakota Johnson and Oscar-winning screenwriter Nat Faxon as the titular characters. »
