We were so disappointed that Zero Hour wasn’t given more time to gain an audience, but at least were pleased when ABC announced that the entire first season would air this summer, including the first three episodes that aired in the winter.
Happily, ABC has now paired those episodes with unaired episodes from another gone-too-soon show from earlier this season, 666 Park Avenue, according to Deadline. As you know from the SciFiMafia.com Spring and Summer Primetime TV Schedule and the SciFiMafia.com Calendar, Zero Hour premieres Saturday, June 15 at 8/7c. 666 Park Avenue will join Zero Hour on June 22, following it at 9/8c and continuing weekly for three more weeks.
Excellent news, I’m So looking forward to summer Saturdays, these were great shows; thanks to ABC for airing the rest of the episodes.

"666 Park Avenue" was one of the biggest disappointments of the last TV season - both for viewers story-wise and for ABC ratings-wise. But fans of the show will finally have some closure when the network begins airing the remaining four episodes on Saturday, June 22nd.
Per TVLine the ill-fated spooker, which ABC pulled from the schedule following its December 2, 2012 broadcast, will reward loyal viewers with a finale on July 13. Speaking with the site recently, series star Rachael Taylor gave the final episode two very enthusiastic thumbs up, saying, “I love the ending. Everything gets completely flipped on its head, and it was very fun for me to play. My character is very different in the last episode. I’m really looking forward to people seeing the end, because shit gets crazy.”
Synopsis:
At the ominous address of 666 Park Avenue, anything you desire can be yours. Everyone has needs, desires, and ambition. »

Question: Whatever happened to ABC airing the remaining episodes of 666 Park Avenue? I need some closure here. —Matt
Ausiello: The remaining four episodes will unspool Saturday nights beginning in June, and Rachael Taylor is giving the final episode two very enthusiastic thumbs up. "I love the ending," she tells TVLine. "Everything gets completely flipped on its head, and it was very fun for me to play. My character is very different in the last episode.

Question: Do you have any spoilers for Law & Order: Svu? There’s loads of rumors going around that Olivia might die in the finale. —Kayley
Ausiello: Ok, so… apparently Mariska Hargitay has not yet inked a deal to return next season, despite my earlier assertion to the contrary. (In my defense, this is the only time I’ve ever been wrong about anything ever in the history of everything.) So, that little development, coupled with Kelli Giddish’s »

The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the first announced today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on NBC.
The Peacock did not have a good year. Only one of its new shows, "Revolution," was a true hit. Another, "Chicago Fire," got renewed by the skin of its teeth whilst the fate of a third, "Hannibal," remains uncertain.
None of last year's new comedies survived, neither did two mid-season dramas, which leaves the network with some big holes to fill. Three dramas and three comedies will debut in the Fall ahead of three more dramas and two comedies mid-season. Two further dramas and a comedy are presently unscheduled.
Several other pilots didn't make the final cut and won't become series including the high-profile Charlize Theron-produced drama about the Hatfields and McCoys, the Bruckheimer-produced »

The new fall season is closer than you think, and NBC has released their full schedule. Apart from reality favorites The Biggest Loser and The Voice, they are mixing things up quite a bit.
Take a look at a complete preview of the shows coming your way, and mark your calendars. It looks good for NBC this year, and while I’m not sure all of these look like winners, I think you’ll find at least a couple that you’re really going to like.

It's J.J. Abrams' world, and we just watch it. Not long after Fox announced that one of its new series for 2013-2014 will be the Abrams-produced futuristic cop drama "Almost Human," NBC touted its own pickup of an Abrams joint, "Believe," about an orphaned 10-year-old girl with extraordinary abilities who's given over to the protection of a wrongfully imprisoned death row inmate. The show is executive produced, written and directed by no less than Alfonso Cuarón. Abrams has a current series at NBC -- "Revolution," which has already been given a renewal. Also among the network's new series is Jason Katims' TV adaptation of "About a Boy," directed by Jon Favreau and starring David Walton, Minnie Driver and Benjamin Stockham, and hostage thriller "Crisis," from "Life" creator Rand Ravich and starring Dermot Mulroney, Gillian Anderson, Lance Gross and Rachael Taylor. Comedy "Sean Saves the World" is another doubling »

Don Groves is a Deadline contributor based in Sydney Yesterday, Deadline posted a Funny Or Die video made by American actor Brian Guest in response to the proliferation of Australian actors being cast in broadcast pilots this season. His “agent” tells him at one point in the video, “You’re doing great work, you’re just not Australian.” As Deadline’s Nellie Andreeva pointed out, this has been a sore topic for Hollywood talent agents and their American-born clients this season as the nets bet heavily on actors from Down Under. So what’s all the hubbub about? At least 23 Aussies have been cast in pilots this season, an unprecedented number. Some are unfamiliar commodoties Stateside like Luke Mitchell, Bob Morley, Chris Egan, Lincoln Lewis, Rick Donald and Luke Bracey, who were all regulars on the Seven network’s long-running TV soap Home And Away.

Ya know, maybe the world's not giving the "Transformers" franchise quite enough credo for its consistent hot lady factor ... Or maybe it is.
Nicola Peltz has just signed on to star as the babe du jour for "Transformers 4," as confirmed by Michael Bay and his blog, while the series' original eye candy Megan Fox still doesn't appear to be making any cameo in the flick — though it's probably not her public tiff-ing with Bay at issue, since she's lined up to star in his "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" reboot and all.
Whatever the reason, Fox is apparently out and Peltz is in, and that means her Maxim 100 stock will be through the roof come next summer.
Peltz is best known for her work in "The Last Airbender," unfortunately, but she does currently star in the promising new A&E series "Bates Motel."
She also recently turned blonde, so step »
