Big Bang Theory renewed for three - you read that right - three more seasons: I have no words. Well, I have one: wow. I mean, really, I didn't think this show would last through its first season, let alone through 2014.

Wow ... not just the show until 2014 but that the cast won't get stir crazy near the end of it. Usually by now, someone on a show would want out to either do films or just to take a break from their character.

According to Wil Wheaton, it is one of the few shows he has worked on where everything just "feels right". Basically, he felt the same way about ST: TNG and the cast of Firefly felt about their show. The cast genuinely enjoys showing up to work everyday to hang out with friends of theirs and tell a story together. Kind of like your favorite gaming group...

Great news, but last season has been a little off for me.  The scripts are not so good as previous seasons,  more anedcotic and based in a couple of jokes stretched too much that about any real story.

ARGGHHH!!!

Just when I got back into "V" with the addition of Bret Harrison (a long-time favorite of mine) and the guest shots of Jane Badler (who still looks good) and eventually Marc Singer...

I'm right there with ya. I actually had to stop myself from deleting the rest of the episode unwatched at least twice. So, so sad.

Jane Espenson and Drew Z. Greenberg are adapting Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased) for SyFy

Though it's hard to take much away from a story this lean, if it's right we may have a new Thunderbirds on the way.

Ryan Murphy heads up The Glee Project for Oxygen: If you can't guess from the title, this is a reality show to find the next star of Fox's monster musical hit - at least, for 7 episodes.

(To be fair, Andrew Lloyd Webber has been doing this sort of thing in the UK for years. I don't think this will be quite as creepy, though.)

Just finished watching the first two episodes of The Cape...

Takes places in fictional American city - good move.
Casting Keith David and James Frain - excellent.
Vinnie Jones - good mix of menacing and comic relief.
Explaining his powers with a special cape and "magic" - just the right amount of scifi.

A couple of quotes from my missus:
"This is like Batman, but without Batman."
"I think this is the best acting she [Summer Glau] has ever done."

Summer Glau has not shown this much acting since Firefly.

My wife likes it as well.

On a programming note... "Human Target" airs tonight (two hours) stateside due to the memorial service that was televised on Wednesday.
