Finally! It only took her seven seasons, but 'Sons of Anarchy' vet and former 'The Sopranos' star Drea de Matteo has finally been promoted to a full series regular in advance of the FX motorcycle drama's seventh and ostensibly final season. Will she prove the last leading lady in Jax's life after all?
'The Walking Dead' remains just out of our reach with a February 9 premiere of season 4's latest, but that shouldn't stand in the way of some fresh new art from the zombie apocalypse! AMC has released a new season 4 poster that teases Rick and Carl on the road ahead, but how long will the pair remain isolated from the other survivors?
December fools! Following weeks of return speculation after 'Family Guy' killed off one of its most iconic characters, going as far as to replace him in the opening credits, Sunday night's "Christmas Guy" saw a yuletide miracle return the character to life, after all. Series creator Seth MacFarlane even reached out to confirm the resurrection, poking fun at the gullibility of audiences outraged by the death.
It's been an otherwise quiet day in the realm of TV news, but Comedy Central certainly seems to have made the most of it. Not only will breakout comedy duo 'Key & Peele' return for a fourth season, but so too will the animated 'Brickleberry' draw itself a third outing and the web series-adapted 'Drunk History' take a second course.
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!
