Do those rumors include Amy Sherman-Palladino?
Experimental TV: Network Drama
This thread is an experiment to discern the Buffistas' interests in television discussion. It will close on June 1st, 2007, after which our community will assess our future direction. Discuss network aired drama here. [NAFDA]
They are not that complete. The discussion over at TWOP wonders about ASP but I haven't read the original source. (I also wonder whether this isn't the sort of rumor that flies whenever a beloved show goes away.)
You know, I really thought I read someone from the cast saying that there would probably be a reunion movie...that the cast had signed on for it. I wish I could remember where I read that.
Ausiello says that ASP is behind the reunion movie.
ETA:
Question: So, what gives? There is no way you could still be at Fox's upfront party. Did you track down AS-P, and, if so, what were the final four words she had in mind for Gilmore Girls?— KatrinaAusiello: OK, here's the deal: Yes, I tracked her down, but, no, she did not cough up those elusive four words. But wait — there's more. And it's good. No, amazing. No, un-frakkin'-believable. Amazing, even. Wait, did I say that already? Well, it's true. Because just as I was about to brand her a big ol' promise-breaker right there in front of all those industry types, Amy explained why she couldn't divulge her long-ago-planned Gilmore ending. (Gilmore fanatics: This is the time in Sprockets when you either lean on a heavy object or just sit down.) In the next year or two, she hopes to make — wait for it — a two-hour Gilmore Girls TV-movie that ties up all those loose threads! I nearly fell over when she said it — especially given what she told me back in December. (BTW, lest you think Amy was pulling my leg, her partner in life and in showbiz, Dan Palladino, confirmed that a GG reunion pic is something they're interested in pursuing.)
(Added because there are big Heroes casting spoilers on the same page. Spoilers for next year you know.)
Possible Jericho news:
Question: What, if anything, are your sources telling you regarding this Jericho "closure" that CBS is promising? I think I speak for every fan when we say we don't want closure. We want Season 2!— Josh >br?
Ausiello: All I know is that a meeting is taking place this week at CBS. To learn more about the gargantuan "Save Jericho" movement, head to jericholives.com.
And I thought -- hmmm, because most of the shows that I've heard of having that sort of campaign are not on the top network in the country - they're on the smallest networks or on cable only and probably have a tiny percentage of the viewers of even the lesser viewed shows on the big networks. So maybe the Jericho Lives campaign really is massive.
Okay, apparently people are sending nuts to CBS.
Okay.
Lennie James left a nice message on CBS' message board.
NCIS: man, that was a nice little twist at the ending. I don't get what the Angel of Death was supposed to be about, other than a red herring, and the story about the addict and the pimp was kind of boring. But I gotta say, that was some wicked-gross out of the chick sniffing coke out of her brother's organs. gyuh ew.
I wonder if they'll be able to sustain both the Director's dad returning from the dead, and the new developments with La Granui (or however it's spelled); and I wonder if Jean was a plant, but I don't think so from the way La Granui was poring over pictures of Tony. Tense stuff, all around.

and Granui kept deflecting his stooge's plan to use Jeanne against Tony. The pimp/addict thing was a nice way to confront Jeanne with the truths of Tony's world, though. Which I think she's going to get a lot more familiar with as this Director/Granui/Jeanne/Tony thing gets pulled tighter and tighter.
Gibbs called McGee "Tim"! Was that a first?
(another thing I love about this thread, I hadn't even thought of going on about NCIS)
