You may have heard, but they’re making a TV version of Spartacus, the famous gladiator cum rebel leader, for the premium channel Starz. And it’s not just a TV show, either — it’s Rome if Robert Rodriguez and Zack Snyder got their hands on it. Plus sex. Don’t forget the sex....

Prison Break Season 4 May Get Two Extra Episodes

The first season of Prison Break was so good, so taut, and so bloody nerve fraying, that I swear I spent every hour expecting Michael Scofield’s plan to bust brother Linc the Sink out of jail to go all to hell any second, and when it never did, when the teaser for the next episode finally played,...

MadTV Gets Canceled After 14 Years

To be perfectly honest with you, I’m shocked to learn that it’s been 14 years since MadTV came on the air. 14 Years! Really? Wow. The show actually got funnier as the years went on, with some memorable characters that, like the show itself, really didn’t get a whole lot of respect from...

McQuarrie’s Persons Unknown Fills out Cast and Director

I like Christopher McQuarrie. I’m a fan of Christopher McQuarrie. He’s the unsung hero of “The Usual Suspects” in my opinion. Bryan Singer gets all the glory, but McQuarrie makes that thing go. If you haven’t seen his crime opus “Way of the Gun”, you are missing...

Ronin: The TV Series in the Works

John Frankenheimer’s 1998 espionage thriller “Ronin” is probably my favorite action movie that no one has ever heard of. Or at least, I’ve never met anyone who has heard of it. Whenever I mention the title to someone, all I get is a blank look. Which is odd, as the movie had a...

So this trailer for a new British TV show called No Heroics has been going around the Interwebs, and it actually looks pretty decent. Basically it’s the British version of Ben Stiller’s “Mystery Men”, complete with goofy costumes, goofy superheroes, and goofy plotlines. Except,...
