Cancelled shows of Tomorrow: The War on Chuck Lorre - Part 6

[Mrs. Sawyer]

Damn, that sounds brutal. Makes me glad I didn't watch Breaking Bad while it was on TV. t:

 

[SpideyFan866]

LWS could of lasted, but they gave it an instant stamp of death when they put after the FINAL EPISODES OF BREAKING BAD.


Its like they wanted it to fail.

 

[DrDoom]

Why do you say that?

New shows ALWAYS try to get put in front of a good lead-in show. You can't get much better than BrBa.

If that couldnt help it then NOTHING could have

 

[Bruce Banner]

Californication is ending after the next season.

Is it just me, or do these Showtime shows go on like 2-3 seasons too long? If not more...

I agree on Showtime milking it too much.

Californication should have ended at season 4 with the trial. Season 3 was a big detour itself though.

 

[enterthemadness]

Young and the Restless pulled out a big surprise!!!!! HEAR ME OUT SAWYER.

RAY WISE JOINS THE CAST OF Y&R AS CULT LEADER.


I loved him as the Devil on Reaper. Seen him in other stuff as well.


First Y&R got Tony Todd (Candyman) for a brief recurring gig earlier in the year and now this recurring gig for next year. t:

 

[terry78]

[Docker2.0]

Mindy Project not cancelled yet? Sucks!

 

[Sawyer]

Methinks the lady doth protest too much...

 

[Docker2.0]

#cancelMindyproject!

 

[enterthemadness]

Oh, soap operas and their cult leaders.

I wonder if a Daytime Emmy Nomination was a guarantee in his contract when he signed up for the gig.

 

[enterthemadness]

Methinks the lady doth protest too much...

What do you think of Ray Wise joining a daytime soap?

 

[Sawyer]

I think I won't watch it regardless, so..... yay-ish?

I just don't know with you anymore, ETM.

 

[enterthemadness]

I think I won't watch it regardless, so..... yay-ish?

I just don't know with you anymore, ETM.

Ray Wise is gonna teach a acting class on Y&R. Its' called ''Watch what I do, and learn''

 

[terry78]

Bold and the Beautiful is where it's at. That one chick, man...

 

[enterthemadness]

Bold and the Beautiful is where it's at. That one chick, man...

Jesus, Guy, how much are they paying you for this?

 

[terry78]

It must be quite a bit. He's gotta get work done on his flat.

 

[Docker2.0]

I remember Guy made a comment years ago about not doing super hero movies because they were beneath him.............something to that effect. Look at him now. Starred in IM3 and doing gay porn. Dude has to be nucking futs.

 

[DrDoom]

Gay porn?

Way to exaggerate man lol

 

[HighFivingMF]

Hey, Docker. When can I expect Mindy to come back from the Christmas break?

FX Orders Executioner Pilot From ‘Sons Of Anarchy’ Creator Kurt Sutter & Brian Grazer
By NELLIE ANDREEVA

EXCLUSIVE: Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter has lined up his follow-up series to the hit FX drama, and it is as far from SOA‘s contemporary Central Valley biker community as they come (but probably just as violent). Sutter has teamed with Imagine’s Brian Grazer for The Bastard Executioner, a period drama project, which has received a pilot greenlight from FX. The Bastard Executioner tells the story of a warrior knight in King Edward III’s charge who is broken by the ravages of war and vows to lay down his sword. But when that violence finds him again he is forced to pick up the bloodiest sword of all. “I love the network. I love the world. I love the blood,” Sutter said. He will write the script and will executive produce with Imagine’s Grazer and Francie Calfo for Fox 21 and FX Prods. through Sutter’s overall deal with Fox 21 parent 20th Century Fox TV where Imagine TV also is based. Sutter is expected to start working on The Bastard Executioner when he wraps the upcoming seventh and final season of SOA, with filming of the pilot slated to begin late next year. “For 13 years at FX, starting as a writer and working his way up to an Executive Producer on The Shield, then as Creator/Executive Producer of Sons of Anarchy, Kurt has interwoven literary and pulp storytelling within two of the most successful series in cable history,” said FX Networks CEO John Landgraf. “Now he has conceived a deep, provocative and historically precise narrative journey into our Medieval past– and I have no doubt The Bastard Executioner will be another remarkably original and gripping series. We’re also thrilled to be in business with Brian Grazer who is one of the most gifted film and television producers in the business.”

The Bastard Executioner, which marks FX’s first pilot with Imagine TV, stems from an idea by Grazer, who had been exploring the arena for awhile. “I find the executioner to be an incredibly fascinating and provocative character,” he said. “He deals with the highest order and the lowest order in the culture. It’s about as morally complex a profession as you can imagine, and it is going to make for a spellbinding series.” Grazer pitched the idea to 20th chairmen Dana Walden and Gary Newman. The two, along with Fox21 president Bert Salke, suggested Sutter as writer. After meeting with Grazer and taking some time to contemplate the idea, Sutter built a whole world around it and the pitch was taken to FX, which bought it on the spot. “It was our great pleasure to introduce Kurt to Brian Grazer, who is a powerful force in our industry and a great champion of breakthrough films and television shows like Imagine’s own 24 and Arrested Development,” Walden and Newman said. “Kurt and Brian together will be unstoppable.” The Bastard Executioner joins three other drama projects from A-list auspices FX ordered to pilot off a pitch/spec. The others, American Horror Story, The Strain and Tyrant, have all gone to series. WME-repped Sutter has several other projects in the works at FX, including a potential SOA prequel and a comedy starring his wife/SOA star Katey Sagal, but they will take back seat to The Bastard Executioner for now. Sutter’s feature film script, Southpaw, has Antoine Fuqua attached to direct. He is with WME.

He did the b-movie die hard knock off in space, Lock Out....I'd imagine he'll do anything. But a NBC Comedy is a shocker.

And I like Lock Out, but c'mon, it's kinda wasted potential.

 

[Mrs. Sawyer]

I can't believe I actually read an etm post that I not only agree with, but makes sense.

 

[Sawyer]

Soak it in, they only come around once or twice a year.

 

[enterthemadness]

I'm like Sarah Palin...

Soak it in, they only come around once or twice a year.

I make sense once a blue moon or two.


But no, no, no, Lock Out was too short, weak bad guys, low character development...it just felt like it could had been better. I didn't mind the PG-13 rating much. The story and bad guys needed more screen time. Along with other characters.
