Dollhouse needs your help

8 October 2009 11:28 AM, PDT | AOL - TVSquad | See recent AOL - TVSquad news »

This isn't a big surprise: fans have started a campaign to save Fox's Dollhouse.

Other campaigns have popped up on the web over the past few years to save shows. While most of them are unsuccessful, once in a while a network will actually listen. This happened to Jericho after fans of that show sent so many nuts to CBS that the network finally decided that producing another seven episodes of the show would be cheaper than having fans send even more nuts to them and having to get rid of them somehow.

Harpers Island (DVD Review)

7 September 2009 10:00 PM, PDT | Fangoria | See recent Fangoria news »

Grabbing my late-night viewing snack, the “thwrick” of the TV snaps on and I “thump” back onto the couch.  The hesitant “tick…tick” of the clock is heard overhead as time seems to suddenly stop.  The sandpaper, “thrush” of my jittery fingers drag the volume up on the TV; “nick, nick” the volume rises.  All of these exonerated, over-the-top emotions are courtesy of the brilliant and nail-biting CBS television show Harper’S Island. 

The series, being dealt the DVD edition treatment this week from CBS DVD, is a series I originally looked over this past spring season.  The show, created by Ari Schlossberg, who penned the 2005 horror/thriller Hide And Seek, and from Executive Producer Jon Turteltaub, who helmed the other CBS hit Jericho, take us on a wild gut-wrenching thriller ride.  Excellently these two masterminds have brought us a series that is unique and original, something that horror and »

Defying Gravity: Does ABC Even Know It’s On?

2 September 2009 9:29 PM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

I don’t know about you, but when’s the last time you’ve seen a TV commercial for Defying Gravity?  I don’t recall seeing one.

It’s been noted that Defying Gravity’s 8th episode is scheduled to air on September 13th, but after that, it’s no longer shown on any schedule for ABC.  Despite having 5 more episodes to go.

 

What gives?  I haven’t watched the show myself but when I inquired with our readers on their reviews on Defying Gravity, we received some great responses.  The various opinions on the show ranged from

“It’s just a soap opera in space.”

“It’s Virtuality all over again.”

“Like a slow train wreck.”

“Defying Gravity isn’t action based so much as character driven and in my opinion it’s been quite compelling”

First, thanks to all the Screen Rant readers for chiming in with your reviews of the show. »

Nimrod Antal's Armored Trailer

26 August 2009 11:49 PM, PDT | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Unless you caught the low-budget Control, probably your only English-language experience of director Nimrod Antal was 2007's horror quickie Vacancy. Here then, is a look at the Hungarian's take on an action movie, the upcoming Armored. And he can certainly wield a good cast: look out for Laurence Fishburne, Matt Dillon, Skeet Ulrich, Jean Reno and Fred Ward. Hooray! Remo Williams is in this!The plot as you'll see, involves new kid on the block Columbus Short getting conflicted about his security truck driver collegues' plans to hijack their own vehicle. On one hand it looks like standard stuff, but we're always pleased to see Reno, Dillon and Fisho, and it's great to see Ulrich back on the big screen after the cancellation of Jericho.But maybe the most tantalising thing here is that Antal is directing Predators for Robert Rodriguez, and Armored is our first real look at his action chops and visual style. »

Is There Really A Jericho Movie In Development?

8 August 2009 8:25 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

Every time someone who starred in Jericho makes a public appearance, it’s inevitable that they get asked if they’re up for more Jericho, and in particular, a Jericho movie.

Sure, we’d love to see an actual project that is given its full due.  After canceling the 2006 season show, CBS relented to a second season from fan pressure but barely gave it the attention it was due - It popped out a whole 7 episodes and was canceled again.  Sometimes, a show may be a major fan favorite, but the impassioned fans are not as numerous as they need to be.

Some time ago, rumors started floating around that there might be a Jericho movie in the works.

 

In January of ‘09, executive producer Jon Turteltaub said they were “developing” a Jericho feature and that it would cover a broader scope of events - beyond the town of Jericho itself. »

Unaired Fear Itself Episodes Hitting FEARnet in September

6 August 2009 1:12 AM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

"Fear Itself" should be pretty fresh in your minds considering it's hitting DVD soon with some very bitchin' artwork. The short-lived show was like the unofficial third season of "Masters of Horror". For various reasons it was pulled before it could run its final five episodes. FEARnet is out to fix all that.

Starting on September 2nd the final five will begin being aired. Below you'll find a synopsis of each episode and when you can tune in to see them.

"Something With Bite," directed by Ernest Dickerson (NBC’s "Heroes"), is a reinvention of the classic werewolf story from writer Max Landis ("Masters of Horror"), the son of John Landis ("An American Werewolf in London"). When a veterinarian (Wendell Pierce, “The Wire”) is bitten by a large, strange animal brought into his clinic, he begins to see the world and his stale life differently.

Coming in October: Jericho, Season 3

27 July 2009 9:59 AM, PDT | TVovermind.com | See recent TVovermind.com news »

In all of our excitement over the recently completed Comic-Con we sometimes fail to remember that, well, it is Comic-Con!

One of the best tidbits to be announced last weekend is that one of my favorite television programs, Jericho, will be released in comic book form by Devil's Due Publishing this coming October, as announced by Josh Blaylock, President of the publishing company. Jericho: Season 3 will take over where the television series concluded but lead quickly to what we all knew had to happen – Civil War.

Backed and written with help of esteemed comic writer Jason Burns, the original team of writers from the television series and Executive Producers Jon Steinberg Karim Zreik, and Dan Shotz, and Robert Levine, along with one of the stars of Jericho, Lennie James (Robert Hawkins) spoke at the Comic-Con panel about the coming series:

#Sdcc: 'The Prisoner': Do You Want ... Information?

Jim Cavalziel (The Passion of the Christ) suffers a whole new kind of persecution when he stars as Number Six in the six-episode remake of Patrick McGoohan’s classic 1960s show The Prisoner, which is set to air on AMC in November.

Today’s Sdcc panel on The Prisoner reboot featured Jim Cavalziel as well as Prisoner co-star Lennie James (Jericho), AMC VP Vlad Wolynetz, and miniseries writer Bill Gallagher. Alas, Sir Ian McKellan, who takes on the role of Six’s nemesis, Number Two, was not present.

Gallagher characterized the remake as a “response,” and not a duplication of McGoohan’s concept. (We don’t have to worry about Cavalziel being overly influenced by McGoohan’s take on the role of Number Six; according to a Wired interview, he’s never even seen the show. Maybe that’s worrying in a whole different way.)

Sdcc 09: Nine minutes of AMC's The Prisoner mini-series!

24 July 2009 3:45 PM, PDT | QuietEarth.us | See recent QuietEarth news »

After the disappointingly short teaser trailer they release a month or so back, I'm glad to see that AMC decided to share their entire 9 minute Comic Con preview withe the world this afternoon... and yep, "Rover" even makes an appearance!

Synopsis:

An update to the cult favorite series from the 1960s about a government agent who is kidnapped and sent to a remote island known as "the Village".

Even though the writers went an entirely new direction with the 6-part redux, it still has a real classic quality so I have complete faith that the show will be just as mysterious and twisted as the original. Jim Caviezel feels perfectly cast as 6 too. I just watched him in the Long Weekend remake (or "Nature's Grave" to us here in the states and Canada) last week and was reminded at how great he can be. Jericho's Lennie James even makes an appearance too, »
