DAN POVENMIRE AND JEFF "SWAMPY" MARSH CONTINUE THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH DISNEY TELEVISION ANIMATION, BEGIN PRODUCTION ON NEW ANIMATED SERIES "MIKEY MURPHY'S LAW" FOR DISNEY XD WHILE MARKING '104TH DAY OF SUMMER' IN THE HIT "PHINEAS AND FERB"
-- Every "Phineas and Ferb" to Be Presented for 73 hours, Leading to the Ultimate Story Capper, "Last Day of Summer," Friday, June 12 --
Acclaimed animation producers Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh, renowned for their global hit series "Phineas and Ferb," are continuing their association with Disney Television Animation with a new animated comedy series, "Mikey Murphy's Law," for Disney XD. The story introduces Mikey, the fictional great-great-great-great grandson of the Murphy's Law namesake. The announcement was made today by Marc Buhaj, Senior Vice President, Programming and General Manager, Disney XD, and Eric Coleman, Senior Vice President, Disney Television Animation.
Povenmire and Marsh are the creators and executive producers of "Mikey Murphy's Law," scheduled for a 2017 premiere, and joining them are "Phineas and Ferb" colleagues – producer and director Robert F. Hughes, story editor Scott Peterson and staff writers Joshua Pruett, Dani Vetere and Martin Olson.
The team wrapped production on the Emmy Award-winning and BAFTA-nominated "Phineas and Ferb" after 126 episodes, five one-hour specials and a record-breaking Disney Channel Original Movie. The series will continue to be presented daily on Disney XD and Disney Channels around the world. In the U.S., it was TV's #1 animated series among Tweens 9-14 and the #1 animated TV series in Primetime among Kids 6-11 from 2008-2013. The movie, "Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension" (August 2011), remains the #1 animated telecast in cable TV history in Kids 2-11 and ranks among the Top 5 cable TV movies of all time in Total Viewers.
Celebrating its appeal, every "Phineas and Ferb" story ever told will be presented in a 73-hour marathon beginning TUESDAY, JUNE 9 (8:00 p.m., ET/PT) leading to the ultimate story capper, "Last Day of Summer," premiering FRIDAY, JUNE 12 (9:00 p.m., ET/PT) on Disney XD and simulcast on Disney Channel. The series will continue to air daily on Disney XD. A standalone hour-long special "The O.W.C.A. Files," which focuses on the organization's best secret agent, Agent P (also known as Perry the Platypus), and his fellow animal agents, will premiere this fall on Disney XD.
Buhaj said, "Dan and Swampy are two of the most respected and proven show creators in the animation series business. They are incredibly gifted storytellers who have a track record of creating smart, original and relatable characters that are universally appealing to both kids and families. It's a coup for Disney XD to continue working with this talented duo on their latest creation, 'Mikey Murphy's Law.' We're looking forward to another great creative partnership."
Marked by clever multi-level humor, strong male and female role models, strong family ties, the depiction of a step-family and a relatable story of kids growing up and using their imaginations, the music-filled, 2D-animated comedy followed ingenious Phineas Flynn and his resourceful step-brother, Ferb Fletcher, as they happily set out to conquer boredom and make every day of summer vacation count for something.
In the one-hour "Phineas and Ferb" episode titled "Last Day of Summer," the summer season is coming to a close and it's Candace's last chance to bust her brothers. She is quickly foiled, but is presented with an opportunity to redo the day when she sets off Dr. Doofenshmirtz's Do-Over-Inator, which results in other consequences like rips in the space-time continuum, the shortening of days and the disappearance of her brothers.
"Phineas and Ferb" won three Emmy Awards – one for Outstanding Writing in Animation (2010) and two for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Animation (both in 2011) – and nine Emmy nominations. Additionally, the series received multiple nominations for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards (BAFTA) and Annie Awards.
The "Phineas and Ferb" voice cast includes: Vincent Martella as Phineas Flynn, Thomas Sangster as Ferb Fletcher, Ashley Tisdale as Candace Flynn, Mitchel Musso as Jeremy, Caroline Rhea as mom Linda Flynn-Fletcher, Richard O'Brien as dad Lawrence Fletcher, Dee Bradley Baker as Perry the Platypus, Alyson Stoner as Isabella, Jeff "Swampy" Marsh as Major Monogram and Dan Povenmire as the nefarious Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Among its over 150 guest stars are: Michael Douglas, Michael J. Fox, Jon Stewart, Patrick Dempsey, Ben Stiller, Tina Fey, JK Simmons, Seth MacFarlane, Jay Leno, Kelly Clarkson, George Takei, Simon Pegg, Anna Paquin, Josh Gad and Stan Lee.

09:50 - Arrow - Season 3 Finale - Extended by 153 seconds
Apparently Arrow’s Season 3 finale is just too big to fit into a traditional 60-minute time block. The episode has had its time extended by 2 minutes and 33 seconds.
We’re not sure what those extra minutes will hold, but the CW did just pick up Legends of Tomorrow for next season. Perhaps those two minutes are for a teaser trailer, or in episode setup, for the new spinoff show. Having to wait for Legends of Tomorrow to be officially picked up would explain why the Arrow finale wasn’t extended until now. However, this is only speculation.

23:40 - Hawaii Five-0 - Season 5 Finale - EW Interview with Peter Lenkov
Thanks to Sandra for the heads up.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: So, you had to ruin Kono’s wedding day with a nuke, eh?
PETER LENKOV: I wanted to do a story where literally just before the wedding takes place, I wanted our guys to do something big. Just the idea of our guys—McGarrett, Danny (Scott Caan), Chin (Daniel Dae Kim), Grover (Chi McBride) and even Kono as she’s prepping for her wedding—in tuxedos saving the day, very much much like a James Bond movie. The idea was to do something with big stakes and have our guys in tuxedos, because really on the way to the wedding something happens that causes them to take a detour.
This is loosely based on a real story where a nuke transport went off the grid for a few hours. This happened about 10 years ago. The idea is that a nuke is stolen from an unmarked transport and brought to the island. We believe it’s about one thing and it turns out to be something other than we first thought. All the while, all we want to do is stop this thing, get it into the right hands and still make it to Kono’s wedding on time. While Adam (Ian Anthony Dale) and the guests are waiting for the wedding to begin, this is all taking place. It’s a really fun, exciting, edge-of-your-seat episode.

22:00 - MOVIES: Jungle Book: Origins - Freida Pinto to Star
In a reteam of sorts, I hear that Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto is joining the Andy Serkis-directed Jungle Book: Origins at Warner Bros. She’s lined up to play one of the live-action roles opposite Matthew Rhys and Rohan Chand in the hybrid motion-capture pic that’s based on the Rudyard Kipling classic.
Slumdog breakout Pinto was in 2011’s Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes with Serkis who is directing Jungle Book from a script by Callie Kloves. He’s also producing with Steve Kloves and Jonathan Cavendish. Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, and Benedict Cumberbatch feature in the voice cast.
This take on the tale of an orphaned boy raised by animals in the wilderness is slated for an October 2016 release. It’s not to be confused with the Disney project that has Jon Favreau directing.
