    Booooo!
    I wanted to see Kignmakers becoming a series :(
    I hope they shop the pilot around, though that seems unlikely u.u

    Noooo Kingmakers!! It seemed like it was already building a fanbase these past few weeks. I really hope they don't pass Quantico also or I'll be pissed.

    I am honestly really angry right now. It had such promise. I know there was barley any buzz but I was really excited! Here's hoping for Boom!

    No Revenge rip-off.


    The Advocates was Terry O'Quinn's new show, right? He needs something better.

    what you mean by starting moving.........I don't think we hear any renew news today but who knows

  29. Bruce_FMay 8, 2015 at 2:25 AM

    Great news. I liked the setup for season two even if the finale itself was a bit of a letdown.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Pablo TroncosoMay 8, 2015 at 2:25 AM

    Since we never saw it we never got too attached to it, though I was getting excited about the prospects of it becoming the new Revenge. Oh, well

    ReplyDelete
  31. PriceMay 8, 2015 at 2:26 AM

    Galavant being renewed means we get to see what happens on that road trip between those two characters. I'm so happy.

    So far no revenge promo in GA and none in Scandal so far

    Galavant is the first renewal we hear from ABC, so who knows what comes next?

  34. BeTelevisedMay 8, 2015 at 2:27 AM

    I love when something truly different makes it. There's nothing like Galavant on and tv needs more silly fun.

    CBS passed on Melissa Leo? That's great news for Code Black but LFE was the better option.

    No surprise on the ABC passes.

    Boom, LA Crime and Original Sin, all seem to have been picked up by ABC

  48. BeTelevisedMay 8, 2015 at 2:32 AM

    Another network (Fox, I think?) has a show this summer called Boom! so I think they were always going to have to change the name.

  49. Greice MoreiraMay 8, 2015 at 2:32 AM

    I adore Loki Agent of Asgard too! First comic book I've ever read. I intended to start reading Marvel comics, but then Thor lost the hammer and Lady Thor is the lead of one of the most cringe worthy and poorly written story I've ever seen. I got too upset, and just read Loki, although this book is so unfair... It's breaking my heart.

    LA Crime is phenominal. By far ABC's best. Hopefully ABC knows how to schedule it.

    They just renewed Galavant, man. Maybe they're into appeasing cult fanbases this year. :)

    Galavant is a comedy right....maybe there a chance for Forever

    ReplyDelete
  59. BeTelevisedMay 8, 2015 at 2:39 AM

    Yeah. Though admittedly it has a limited run to bridge seasons and stuff but basically its only audience are the 10 people on this site who just shrieked with joy. :) If they renewed that, I wouldn't say it's all over for Forever.

    Actually, Terry O'Quinn was in The Adversaries. Sadly, he hasn't had much luck post-Lost. I wanted him in a new series but I didn't mind The Adversaries so I'm glad it wasn't picked up.
