A week after the network announced its new fall TV schedule, CBS announced it was picking up "Bad Teacher," a TV series based on the movie of the same.

Graynor recently starred in the flick "For a Good Time, Call..." and appeared in "Fringe" as Rachel.

Blu-ray Review: Final Season of Fox Hit ‘Fringe’

8 hours ago | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »

Chicago – I find it fascinating that “Fringe,” the show that always seemed to be on the bubble for renewal and was always included in articles about low-rated programming, appears to be one of the most influential on the Fall 2013 season. Fox has two new dramas in the Fall and they’re both from “Fringe” alum — J.J. Abrams’ “Almost Human” and Robert Orci & Alex Kurtzman’s “Sleepy Hollow”. They’re clearly looking for, believe it or not, the next “Fringe.” For while the smart sci-fi drama never found a huge audience on TV, it found an incredibly loyal one on Blu-ray, On Demand, iTunes, etc. and those fans can now complete their collection with a bittersweet but complete fifth and final season release.

Rating: 4.0/5.0

Fans will likely have seen and loved the final season of “Fringe” and so Warner Bros. wisely includes a few nice bells and whistles to please those »

Hunger Games' Josh Hutcherson To Star In Psychological Thriller Ape

18 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games) has a pretty long and varied resume, bouncing from one genre of movie to the next and regardless of the final product he serves his purpose and usually goes unscathed in criticism. I.m not sure we.ve seen him channel anything that would make him a good lead in a thriller though. But that may soon change. He.ll have a chance to prove himself in the dark psychological drama Ape, which The Wrap reports he will produce through his JetLag Productions banner along with Bree Herzog.s Atomic Owl Pictures. The script was written by newcomer Jon Johnston, and the film will be directed by Miguel Sapochnik, whose only directorial film credit is 2010.s perfectly average Repo Men. Beyond that, Sapochnik has directed a bunch of TV episodes on series such as House M.D., Fringe and most recently Revolution, and he also »

Trailer For J.J. Abrams/Alfonso Cuaron Series 'Believe' Arrives, Ang Lee Bails On 'Tyrant' Pilot

21 May 2013 1:45 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

As far as two people to create a TV series together, it'd be hard to do much better than J.J. Abrams and Alfonso Cuaron. The former is, obviously, the man behind hits like "Alias," "Lost" and "Revolution," while the latter is the acclaimed filmmaker behind "Children Of Men," who'll make his long-awaited return this October with "Gravity." The delayed post-production on the latter gave Cuaron the time to cook up "Believe" with Abrams, and direct a pilot, NBC picked up the show, and now a trailer has arrived, via /Film. The show seems to be a sort of blend of "The Fugitive," "Paper Moon" and Abrams' vaguely sci-fi conspiracy millieu (the show looks a lot like "Fringe" at this point -- good news for us, probably not good news when it comes to the ratings.) It follows an ex-con (Jake McLaughlin of "Warrior" and "Safe House,") who has to protect »

Fox Unveils Two New Promos for Sleepy Hollow

20 May 2013 1:46 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Am I alone in thinking Fox's upcoming new take on "Sleepy Hollow" looks like a helluva lot of fun? Check out these two new promos for the show, and let us know what you think!

"Sleepy Hollow" will air Monday nights on Fox at 9Pm.

"Sleepy Hollow"

What if you suddenly woke up from the throes of death 250 years in the future to find the world is on the brink of destruction, caused by unimaginable events, and you are humanity’s last hope? Welcome to "Sleepy Hollow," the thrilling new mystery-adventure drama from co-creators/executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (Star Trek and Transformers franchises, “Fringe”). In this modern-day retelling of Washington Irving’s classic, Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen) is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to unravel a mystery that dates all the way back to the founding fathers. »

Peter Weller on Star Trek, Getting His Ph.D., and Defending J.J. Abrams

20 May 2013 10:45 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »

If you saw Star Trek Into Darkness this weekend and couldn't quite place Peter Weller, the actor playing Starfleet Admiral Marcus, allow us to refresh your memory: Weller starred in two of the biggest cult films of the eighties, Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai and RoboCop, as well as in David Cronenberg’s adaptation of William S. Burroughs's The Naked Lunch. He's also had supporting parts on 24, Dexter, Fringe, and House. And if that weren’t enough, the man is currently finishing up a Ph.D. in art history. He talked to us recently about his stint on Star Trek, his diverse career, and his professor's problem with J.J. Abrams.How did you get this part?I had done an episode of Fringe, and I had a meeting at the Bad Robot offices about some directing work. And afterward this young guy follows me into the parking lot and starts talking to me. »

Weekend Box-Office Results: 'Star Trek’s' Warp Core Has Malfunctioned, Fails To Bring In More Than Predecessor

20 May 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

Star Trek Into Darkness was this week’s biggest film and the sequel to a franchise reboot produced by J.J. Abrams.  The guy has his hand all over television with Fringe, Revolution, Alias, and plenty others and has made a solid career as a director with Mission: Impossible III and Super 8.  I don’t want to say that he’s struggling with bringing people to see Star Trek but it does feel that way.  While the film did place first with $70.5 million this weekend, I can’t help but feel Star Trek in this generation doesn’t really appeal to a mass audience.

Global TV Sales Get Serious With L.A. Screenings

20 May 2013 7:45 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

Drama is taking centerstage at this year’s L.A. Screenings.

Most of the big TV stories of the past season were about dramas old and new breaking out (to various degrees) — whether the CW’s “Arrow,” NBC’s “Revolution,” PBS’ “Downton Abbey,” AMC’s “The Walking Dead” or History miniseries “The Bible.” Networks both here and abroad are looking for ways to duplicate that success for themselves.

“The shows that work best internationally are episodic procedurals with interesting lead characters,” says Jeffrey Schlesinger, who last week was promoted to prexy of Warner Bros. Worldwide Television Distribution.

That said, with more channels to fill, international buyers are just as interested in all different sorts of shows — from broad comedy to intense action — as domestic buyers. But the drama market looks particularly fertile.

Genre dramas remain popular this season, with networks picking up several series with sci-fi or fantastical premises.

Exclusive: Christa Faust Discusses Fringe - The Zodiac Paradox, What Fans Can Expect Next and Much More

20 May 2013 7:30 AM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Titan Books just released Fringe - The Zodiac Paradox, which is a prequel novel to the "Fringe" television show focusing on the characters William Bell and Walter Bishop as they face off against the Zodiac Killer.

Now check out the finer details of the book in our interview with author Christa Faust.

Amanda Dyar: Tell us about yourself and how your writing career got started.

Christa Faust: I'm an ex-pat New Yorker living in the strange land of Los Angeles with my Boston Terrier Butch and way too many vintage paperbacks. I'm primarily a crime fiction writer with a hardboiled pulp sensibility, but I got my start in horror back in the early 90s. I've published a dozen novels, both original and tied into a variety of television shows and movies, including the award winning novelization of Snakes on a Plane. I love my job.

'Scandal' Season 3: Guillermo Diaz and Katie Lowes talk hopes for Huck and Quinn

17 May 2013 5:23 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Sure, the Season 2 finale of "Scandal" was all about that final reveal with Kerry Washington's Olivia Pope and her peculiar parentage, but there were some key moments for a pair of characters who have grown into an interesting combination throughout the season, as well: Guillermo Diaz's Huck and Katie Lowes' Quinn.

Throughout Season 2, Huck took Quinn under his wing, teaching her his ways and, as last night's shocking moment with that drill, inadvertently may have created a monster. Zap2It caught up with both Diaz and Lowes on the red carpet at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences on Thursday (May 16) for a cast reading of the finale, where Lowes gushed about working with Diaz.

"Whatever it is, we just really like working together and we have good chemistry and I couldn't love Guillermo Diaz more," she says. "He's my work husband, that's what I call him. »

Update On “The Dark Tower” And “The Body Thief” At Imagine Entertainment

17 May 2013 1:55 PM, PDT | FamousMonsters of Filmland | See recent Famous Monsters of Filmland news »

There’s a new update on the long crusade to bring Roland’s journey to the big and/or small screen. Imagine Entertainment had originally planned to make a film and then a TV series follow up. This was too expensive, and led to just a single movie idea, with Russell Crowe in the lead. Then word broke that a Silicon Valley investor has come forward willing to pay to construct the original vision. Now it’s up to Ron Howard and Brian Grazer to choose which way they want to bring Stephen King’s epic to life.

Also in the works is a reboot of Lestat from Anne Rice’s Interview With The Vampire. It would be based on the fourth book in Rice’s book series, The Body Thief, when Lestat switches bodies with a human for 24 hours.
