Seinfeld Returns in Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee Super Bowl Special

Curb Your Enthusiasm did a sort-of Seinfeld reunion showcasing a fictionalized special a few years back.

The episode of the Larry David show-within-a-show went as far to play whole scenes featuring Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards back in character. Wayne Knight, Estelle Harris and Kenny Bania even showed up to play themselves doing block and table reads. They never confirmed this. But Pete and I always maintained being the sticklers for details they are, they legitimately wrote and shot the entire TV special and have it sitting in the Castle Rock vaults.

Since it didn't air in its entirety (assuming there was an entire show), that doesn't technically count as the real deal reunion for the legendary 90s sitcom. This episode of Jerry Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee web-series, on the other hand, does.

New Trailer for BBC Mini-Series Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond

"Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond takes a no holds barred look at Ian Fleming, the man behind the James Bond legend whose real life was as exciting, eventful and sexually charged as his famous creation."

*Redacted* Headlining AMC's Line of Sight Pilot - AKA His/Her Brains WILL Be Eaten on The Walking Dead This Season

You didn't need to be familiar with The Walking Dead comics to know Shane was a dead man walking. Jon Bernthal joining Frank Darabont's Mob City made the obvious even more so. Especially as it was announced halfway through the second season and Shane still had an active pulse.

Well, it's happening again. "TOLDJA" says David Morrissey (AKA: The Governor) will headline the sci-fi pilot Line of Sight for AMC. He'll play an investigator searching for the truth behind a plane crash he survived. The cable network hasn’t committed to series yet but they seem to think they could be their next "Buzz" show. They're playing dumb about whether this means The Governor eats it during the forth season.

Whether or not the pilot gets picked up, obviously he's a goner. Why else hire him?

Rambo TV Show In the Works

Remember when they made that Rambo Saturday morning cartoon and how inappropriate it was taking a hard R-rated action film franchise about a psychologically-scarred Vietnam vet and turned it into something for the kids to enjoy? Yeah, that was a better idea than this.

A new live-action Rambo TV show is in the works, courtesy of Avi Lerner and Nu Image. Negotiations are underway for Sylvester Stallone (who had no problem going against his "Rambo IV is it, I swear!" promises for that proposed fifth installment pitting him against genetically-engineered soldiers) to be involved on a "creative level" as well as returning to the role.

Lindsay Lohan Getting Married (on Eastbound & Down!)

So, the Affleck gig apparently didn't pan out. Hollywood is still going to give Lindsay Lohan her 17th shot at career rehabilitation, before she fucks it up again. Lather, rinse, repeat. I wish no ill-will at her personally (Though she certainly doesn't feel the same given all the times she's gotten behind the wheel of car under the influence). Hope she beats her demons but she's had too many bites at the apple (and pros like Tina Fey and Jane Fonda telling her to get her act together) for some jackass to back her up, just for the sake of bragging they were the ones "brought her back." Was she ever that good during her prime? Not really.

E! Online reports the One They Call LiLo will guest-star on the forthcoming finale season of HBO's Eastbound & Down. She'll reportedly play the daughter of a lead character who's getting married. Not yet specified which character and whether it's a shotgun wedding or not.

Mob City Trailer Promises L.A. Gangster Goodness From Frank Darabont

What AMC is trash is everyone else's (in this case, TNT) treasure. Frank Darabont got his feet bringing The Walking Dead to television. Hard to believe, that was an honest-to-God risk that could have easily belly-flopped. But it didn't. The opposite results in fact and the cable network showing their appreciation in what the great filmmaker brought them to unsacramouniously fired his ass.

Do not weep for good old Frank, kids. He's sticking with tellie for the time being (The sooner he gets back to directing features, the better) with Mob City, set in post WWII Los Angeles. It's all about the coppers and gangsters. If that's your thing like it is for me, you should enjoy.

And yes, that is Simon Pegg with a pretty-good American accent.

You Knew It Was Coming - Star Trek Pitch from Last Night's Breaking Bad Animated

The moment I saw Badger's crazy Star Trek pitch on last night's Breaking Bad premiere, I knew it would animated in short order. 24 hours from then, tops. That's how predictable we online fork are. I say that, this is still damn funny and better than all of Star Trek Into Darkness.

Dorothy's Anatomy? St. Emerald Brick Road? Scarecrow, M.D.?

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so they say. Certainly the case in the entertainment industry. The moment one thing hits, everyone else in town wants in on that action (even, or especially, if they passed on the zeitgeist-hitting success story in question. I say this I'm assuming this is CBS' answer to Once Upon a Time. Maybe they’re getting in heat over genre material following this summer’s Under the Dome. *Shrugs*

Wait for it, a Wizard of Oz medical drama. It's called Dorothy and comes courtesy of executive producers Carl Beverly and Sarah Timberman and writer Emily Fox. To be fair, it's not the worst Oz-centric idea ever kicked around television. Never forget about Tin Man.

Yeah... Dorothy already sounds a Helluva lot better now, huh?

Homeland Season 3 Trailer

Showtime has released the trailer for the forthcoming third season of the Emmy-winning Homeland. Can't speak for the rest of you, but I am the worst procrastinator about TV shows. I prefer to watch a season as one-lump-sum instead of waiting it out in suspense week-after-week (Mad Men being the exception to that rule).

They keep telling me how great Homeland is. By "they," I refer to critics and pals in real life. Guess I should dust off my DVD copy of season one and watch it, huh?

The Sharknado Sequel Has a Title - Kill Me...

Sharktards rejoice! Syfy (Feel like a horse's ass saying that; it's SCI-FI, people!) has chosen the title for the uh "much-hyped" sequel to Sharknado. After much deliberation (Translation: a Twitter contest, which is perfectly fine I'll admit; always cool to get the fans involved especially for something as niche as this), the title is Sharknado 2: The Second One.

The film premieres next July, where the buzz will have died done by then and everyone will vaguely recall how drunk they were when they said they liked it.
