“Elementary” Introduces Irene Adler and Klaine Reunion in the “Glee” Finale?

9 May 2013 4:16 AM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

Plus Fox orders nine pilots, the BBC is remaking Everybody Loves Raymond and Gillian Anderson is Hannibal‘s therapist. News

If the May upfront presentations are like Christmas for me, this week is the one when kids watch every package to come out of the car trunk, looking for clues to what thrills will be discovered under the tree. A few hints came from NBC today as they officially cancelled Deception. (Somebody find Victor Garber a good show, please!). It also passed on seven pilots, including ones starring Tbl-faves Dave Annable, Chris Zylka, Jesse Lee Soffer and Stephen Guarino.

Meanwhile, Variety says that NBC will announce a decision on bubble shows like The New Normal, Go On and Community today. According to Variety, NBC is inclined to clean house with its comedies but there’s a chance some shows will get a 13-episode order to use as midseason replacements.

NBC has announced some of the pilots that it will not be ordering to series this fall -- releasing actors and writers from their contracts. This doesn't mean that those not listed here will definitely be picked up; it simply means that they're still in contention for the (many) open spots in NBC's fall lineup.

Not Going To Series:

"Joe, Joe and Jane": A multi-cam sitcom centered on an author, Joe (Will Greenberg) who is torn between his clingy wife Jane (Sally Pressman) and his best friend and writing partner, Joe (Dave Annable). The series, from "The Office" and "Just Shoot Me" writers Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, also starred Larry Wilmore,

"Drop Off" (aka The Gates): Described as "an adult ensemble comedy set at the front gates of an elementary school drop-off," the show revolved around the parents and school staff, and their "social minefield" when picking »

TV on Tap: Ryan Murphy Predicts a Very Different "Glee," and "90210" Ends ... But Trevor Donovan Already Has a New Role

1 March 2013 5:27 AM, PST | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

The Porlandia finale explains how locals deal with a power outage.

I presume that torch is made from locally-sourced materials.

News

In talking with The Hollywood Reporter, Ryan Murphy said that if Glee gets a fifth season, the show would be "very different." While he avoided getting specific, he said he will probably have a large chunk of the cast staying in the same location.

The end is near for the gang at West Beverly Hills as TVLine revealed that 90210 will end this season. Ratings have been so bad this season the only debate about 90210's future was if it would end this season or if it would get a farewell season like Gossip Girl did.

However, our main reason for suffering through Adrianna's storylines has already found his next role, as Zap2it reports that Trevor Donovan has joined the ABC Family comedy Melissa & Joey as the boy who »

If you're like us (and all the commenters on this article) you're still missing The CW's "Secret Circle" -- and while we can't bring back the witches, we do have some good news for you today. "Secret Circle" star Chris Zylka has landed a key role in CBS's new thriller pilot, "Bloodline."

Zylka plays Troy, a man who was taken from his parents and into a life of battle. For most of his youth, he has been raised in the Spartan agoge, where he has been taught to withstand excruciating pain.

90210 Recap: Annie’s Twisted Dream Brings Her Closer To Liam, Sort Of

28 January 2013 9:37 PM, PST | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »

Old faces — both welcome and unwelcome, but all sexy — returned this week to help Annie get her slutty, debaucherous friends back on the right path.

I’d like to begin my recap of 90210‘s Jan. 28 episode by saying this: While I’m not entirely sure what the hell I just watched, I do know that I loved it, and I never wanted it to end. Annie (Shenae Grimes) should get shot more often!

Just before Annie went into surgery — she was actually awake and fine, so I’m not sure what surgery she was even having — she told Liam (Matt Lanter) he’d be better off if he’d never met her, which obviously meant she was destined/doomed to dream about an alternate universe in which she’d stayed back home in Kansas.

It’s A Not-So-Wonderful Life

At first, things seemed pretty Ok. I mean, who in their »

Lance Armstrong Movie In Works and Willis Will be Back for 'Sin City 2' Joined by Liotta, Piven and Temple

21 January 2013 7:13 AM, PST | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

1.) While Al Pacino is all set to play Joe Paterno in Brian De Palma's Happy Valley, the wheels are also in motion for a big-screen take on the life of another disgraced sports hero: Lance Armstrong. Paramount and J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot have closed a deal to the rights for Juliet Marcur's upcoming biography "Cycle of Lies: The Fall of Lance Armstrong", just days after Armstrong confessed to years of cheating and denial in an interview with Oprah. Gary Ross (The Hunger Games, Seabiscuit) was at one point attached to direct an Armstrong movie for Sony starring the biker's buddy Jake Gyllenhaal, but hat was a few years ago, and the theme around Armstrong's story has greatly shifted from "inspirational sports story" to "epic fall from grace." Personally, I don't see the drama in a feature film based on a story so recent and fresh on most of our minds. »
