These seven will join Eva Adams and Boldly Going Nowhere on the Fox development slate.

Courtesy of a new teaser video posted to Twitter, it’s looking like the G4 network is coming back next year after previously going off the air in 2014. Essentially known as the “video game network,” G4 was famous with gamers for providing television coverage on the hottest games in the industry at that time. Now, about six years after the network had become defunct, it’s apparent that plans have been made to resurrect G4 in some form, as the official Twitter account for the network has posted a teaser video promoting some kind of return for the network next year....

Vincent D’Onofrio played a perfect poker face when addressing his possible return to the MCU prior to his appearance in Hawkeye’s finale. After his character of Wilson “Kingpin” Fisk was presumed to have been killed by Echo in the final moments of the series, the fan belief that this “death” wouldn’t last long has been proven right as Kingpin is now set to return in both the Echo series and the newly confirmed Daredevil: Born Again....

Dave Grohl has done it all. He was the fantastic hard-hitting drummer for Nirvana, lead singer of the Foo Fighters, played in Queens of the Stone Age, Them Crooked Vultures, and was involved with many more bands. The rocker also wrote a best-selling book and has a brand-new horror movie Studio 666, in theaters now. Clearly, the stories he can tell would fill more than just one book, but this most recent one takes the cake....

The Good The supporting cast of characters really help make this show a lot of fun. The Bad Something about Jenna Elfman seems a bit off. I had never seen one single episode of Dharma & Greg before I was given it to review. I remember when it was on as there seemed to be a big a deal being made about Jenna Elfman who played Dharma Finklestein on the show....

Diana Ross says she’s a busy woman these days. So busy, in fact, that she hasn’t had time to see the hit film Dreamgirls, which is loosely based on her life as a Motown starlet. The 62-year-old singer told CBS “Late Show” host David Letterman on Tuesday that she is going to be a mentor on Fox’s “American Idol” and is planning a world tour in March to promote her new album, “I Love You....

The Good It’s Diff’rent Strokes - The Complete Second Season for crying out loud! The Bad No extras. Diff’rent Strokes - The Complete Second Season isn’t too much different than the first season that was released over a year ago. I guess the biggest change that I noticed from the first season was that this second installment contains no extras. While I was a bit disheartened to see that, I will say that with 24 episodes on this second installment things could be a lot worse....

Damien Chazelle’s Babylon is having a rough week. The film, whose all star cast includes Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Jean Smart and Tobey Maguire, flopped at the box office over the weekend, earning just $3.6 million, a sharp contrast to its $80 million budget. To pile on, audience and critical reception has been less than stellar. On Saturday, renowned screenwriter, director, and frequent Martin Scorsese collaborator Paul Schrader took to Facebook to question the film’s historical accuracy....

The director discusses making the third film in the trilogy, Prison Break, other possible X-Men movies and Rush Hour 3 After having phenomenal success directing Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in the popular Rush Hour movies, Brett Ratner showed his flair for directing different genres of material when he remade Michael Mann’s esteemed Manhunter under the original book title of, Red Dragon. That film grossed $207 million dollars worldwide. One might think that Ratner had earned his stripes and that when scheduling conflicts made Bryan Singer opt of directing the third X-Men movie (so he could direct some movie called Superman Returns), the films fickle fanbase would see that the eventual movie, X-Men: The Last Stand and new director Ratner, would deliver the goods....

Doctor Who is loved by audiences of all ages for its timeless humor, exciting sci-fi ideas, and enduring cast of characters. The show has changed a lot since its early days as a show to teach kids about history. Today, Doctor Who is one of the longest running television series ever. Even though we love the production values in the modern Doctor Who, there is still something special about watching the original series....

Prior to recent events, Black Adam was set to be a big player in the DCU. According to one new report, however, the possibility of a cameo appearance in The Flash was one of Dwayne Johnson’s possible future appearances, but Seven Bucks president Hiram Garcia apparently declined the offer. As reported by The Wrap’s Umberto Gonzalez, during the original production of The Flash, plans were already considering where Black Adam could feature next in the franchise....

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is still one of the most loved family films of all time, even forty years after its release. When it comes to the movie’s two child stars, Drew Barrymore and Henry Thomas, their lives following the film were very different. While Barrymore had a troubled youth and subsequently remained very much a part of Hollywood, Thomas led a relatively uneventful life, continued to work in the industry but reached a point in his life when he realized that life in Los Angeles was no longer for him....
