Hamill told of his decision in an interview…

In the history of Saturday Night Live films, there are four films that I really like from them. The Blues Brothers, Wayne's World, Wayne's World 2, and Coneheads. Everything else just sucks so badly. And then, there are movies that I never knew were based on SNL sketches like Office Space (yeah, look it up).
But anywhere, this is leading nowhere. Here's MacGruber
Synopsis:
Based on the sketch from SNL, MacGruber (Will Forte) is called…

For the past two years, ABC made a play for CBS’ The New Adventures of Old Christine only to see CBS renew the comedy at the last minute. This time around, the sitcom starring Julia Louis Dreyfus is finally available. ABC has been interested. It had been quietly talking to producer Warner Bros. TV while the studio also was also negotiating with CBS. Things were a little different at CBS this year as I heard Old Christine’s license fee deal…

I hear the deal is for 2 years and was just closed an hour ago, thus ending one of those mailbiter negotations for a hit primetime sitcom. "To put a fitting end on the two and one-half months of whirlwind speculation, I'm looking forward to returning to my CBS home on Monday nights. I want to thank Les Moonves for his support." -- Charlie Sheen on signing his new Two And A Half Men contract.

As Deadline previously reported when we scooped the news that NBC had cancelled the Law & Order flagship, Dick Wolf was intent on taking the show to TNT for a record-breaking 21st TV season. Well, that's exactly what is happening. Wolf still has the 3 L&O spin-offs on the air at NBCU, ergo his clout at NBCU is considerable. So he's pressuring the flagship's producer NBC/Universal Media Studios to make a TNT deal for originals if an…

It's good news for CBS' comedy Bleep My Dad Says. The hot pilot is on the verge of a series pickup and is already making deals with writers. But when it officially becomes a series, it will be with a new lead. I hear the network has decided to replace Ryan Devlin, who starred in the pilot. Based on the Twitter account, Bleep centers on a young guy, the role that will be recast, and his opinionated dad, played by William Shatner. Twitter…

Here we go again. A rumor, which is making the rounds today, has Fox’s American Idol switching its Tuesday 8 PM/Wednesday 9 PM broadcast pattern to Wednesday 9 PM/Thursday 9 PM next season. While Idol could finally be on the move this year and the Thursday 9 PM slot is riper than ever for an assault, this looks a lot like one of Fox’s scheduling guru Preston Beckman’s decoy Idol scheduling moves that are floated this time every year to…
