Whether by coincidence or team effort, 'The Walking Dead' is the latest high-profile genre drama today to get an honest skewering, after 'Game of Thrones'. Following up on their 'Breaking Bad' dissection, The good folks at Screen Junkies have given 'The Walking Dead' an "Honest Trailer" to follow the acclaimed AMC drama's fourth-season debut, hitting the nail on the head both literally and figuratively. Major spoilers ahead!
The late-night landscape will look drastically different by this time next year, now that Jimmy Fallon will take over for Jay Leno as host of 'The Tonight Show' in early 2014, but some things will at least stay the same. Extending his own 2014 contract, David Letterman has re-signed to stick with CBS' 'Late Show with David Letterman' through at least 2015.
'Breaking Bad' has finally cooked up its last batch of episodes (discounting the spinoff), and while many continue to argue about the purity of Walter White's last stand, most agree the Emmy-winning AMC drama stuck the landing better than most. We'd previously heard creator Vince Gilligan discuss several alternate endings as well, but it seems the writers also had in mind multiple trajectories for Walt's big gun, including a prison break for Jesse, and other endings that saw either Skyler or Walter Jr. bite the bullet!
'Dexter''s disappointing final hour "Remember the Monsters" brought the series to an ultimate close this past Sunday, leaving an open-ended resolve that producers claim hadn't been written any other way. And while the final season of the Showtime serial killer hit has brought with it an array of criticism, none prove so biting as former showrunner Clyde Phillips, who himself had a drastically different ending in mind for the Bay Harbor Butcher.
The moment we saw the first serpentine poster for 'American Horror Story: Coven,' we knew we wouldn't be getting off that easily in terms of disturbing visuals. The latest teaser and motion poster of the FX horror-drama's third year brings this slimy friend to life, in a manner guaranteed to revisit your lunch, if you're not careful.
'South Park' doesn't lend itself to promotional campaigns that starts months before a premiere in the same manner as other shows, though we're glad to see Matt Stone and Trey Parker back in the saddle for the upcoming seventeenth season, set to premiere on September 25. To that end, Comedy Central's first teaser for the coming premiere reveals a number of potential targets for parody, so what's the latest from 'South Park' season 17?
Not that we should be altogether surprised that AMC continues to grasp at straws following the imminent end of 'Breaking Bad,' 'Mad Men''s final season in the coming year, and the sputtering of 'Low Winter Sun,' but 'The Walking Dead' has officially spawned as well. AMC will develop a "companion series" spinoff to the monster drama focusing on a different corner of the zombie apocalypse, so what do we know thus far?
Just when you thought 'SNL' couldn't have put that Lindsay Lohan rumor to bed any harder, the first three episodes of the 2013-14 season will blow the lid off '30 Rock' altogether. Alumni Tina Fey will host the September 28 'SNL' premiere, with the weeks that follow to include the likes of twerqueen Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, and even a returning Katy Perry!
Hard to believe 'Futurama' has only one more episode to air before its latest (and possibly last) hypersleep, but we certainly won't stop talking about it. 'Talking Dead' and 'Talking Bad' host Chris Hardwick will venture off AMC to host a two 'Futurama' talkbacks surrounding next Wednesday's series finale "Meanwhile," the first clip of which has made its way online as well.
Earlier today we heard that 'Community' guest Rob Corddry would return for the unscheduled season 5 premiere, though it seems the Greendale gang has taken a much fuller measure for the coming year. The pain of our Mike-less 'Breaking Bad' will soon come to an end as Jonathan Banks returns to NBC for 'Community' season 5 for a season-long guest arc!
As part of the ongoing celebration of all things 'Breaking Bad,' the Discovery Channel's 'Mythbusters' finally aired the long-awaited episode in which the team tackled some of the most badass science happenings of the past five seasons. Series creator Vince Gilligan and Emmy-winning star Aaron Paul even got in on the fun, so which of Walter White's greatest chemical feats were put to the test? Find out by watching the full special right here!
As explosive as the recent 'Sons of Anarchy' season 6 teasers have proven, it was high time FX roared out a full trailer for the next ride, no? SAMCRO faces civil war in the official full-length trailer for 'Sons of Anarchy' season 6, and all manner of new secrets and slugfests are revealed in the new footage.
