    Law & Order: Hate Crimes ordered to series at NBC
    This new series is “based on New York’s actual Hate Crimes Task Force, the second oldest bias-based task force in the U.S. The unit, which pledges to uphold a zero tolerance policy against discrimination of any kind, works under the NYPD’s real Special Victims Unit and often borrows SVU’s detectives to assist in their investigations.”

    As you might have been able to infer from that last sentence, the Hate Crimes team will be introduced during the upcoming 20th season of Law & Order: SVU before becoming its own series

    If they follow the SVU format, it could be good.

    TV Land ordered the dramedy “American Woman” based on the life of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Kyle Richards to series, the network announced Monday. Set amid the sexual revolution and the rise of second-wave feminism, the half-hour show follows Bonnie (Alicia Silverstone), a mother struggling to raise her two daughters (Makenna James and Lia Ryan McHugh) after leaving her husband. With the help of her two best friends, Kathleen (Menua Suvari) and Diana (Jennifer Bartels), each woman will try to discover her own brand of independence in a male-centric world.

    I thought they cancelled this? Or was that the network it aired on in the states?

    Could be good. The Last Airbender’s co-creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko are both signed on to oversee the show, something they’ve been planning on for ages. :)

    Not directed by M Night Shyamalan?

    I just have to ask "Why do a live action series?"

    Loads of us asking that question. From a Netflix perspective, obviously they want the cash since they'd get nothing from the original. They already have a contract with the creators through "The Dragon Prince" so presumably they're happy with the quality of their work.
    Why live action? A lot of people would dismiss the original as a kid's cartoon, so there's a large untapped audience for what they know is a great story. Also possibly to remove the horrible legacy of that film, which I refused to watch. This way it'll be done right.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,860 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Even then, a live action version will still be seen as a kid's show with all the puppets/CGI animals and would likely be advertised as being based on the cartoon.
    But I'm just of the opinion that if it already exists in the medium in some format then why mess with it? Book to movie/TV, TV to movie or movie to TV are all understandable but TV to TV always seems pointless. Same as all these Disney live action remakes.

    But I guess why not have another reboot. I'm not paying for it (directly) and the original series is still around. I will likely watch it and hope the effects are believable.

    The Birch

    Crypt TV To Scare Up ‘The Birch’ Series For Facebook Watch
    The Webby Award-winning short The Birch is set to terrify Facebook Watch. Crypt TV will produce a 15-episode series for the VOD service based on their viral short of the same name.

    The Birch is centered around the dark relationship between a synonymous monster protector in the woods and a pure-hearted teenager who summons her in a time of crisis. The episodes will be told from multiple character perspectives as their lives are indelibly shaped by the titular character.

    The original short, which has garnered over 35 million views online, earned a Webby for Best Drama: Individual Short or Episode in 2017 and was featured at Tribeca Film Festival in 2017 as part of Tribeca N.O.W. Special Screenings.

    Production for The Birch is slated to begin in early 2019. Jack Davis, Kate Krantz, and Darren Brandl will serve as Executive Producers for Crypt TV.

    Crypt TV is looking to become the “Marvel of Monsters.” The digital network is known for their monster and horror slate of projects and has a shared universe of original characters that has brought a whole new brand of fear to the internet. The network launched in 2015 and was co-founded by CEO Jack Davis and filmmaker Eli Roth with Blumhouse Productions as an investor and key strategic partner.

    Resident Alien

    ‘Resident Alien’: Alan Tudyk To Star In Syfy Pilot Based On Dark Horse Comics Series
    Syfy has found its Resident Alien. Alan Tudyk (Con Man, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) is set to star in the title role in Resident Alien, a drama pilot based on the Dark Horse comics series by Peter Horgan and Steve Parkhouse, from Universal Cable Productions, Dark Horse Entertainment and Amblin TV. In addition, Sara Tomko (Sneaky Pete), The Closer alum Corey Reynolds, Alice Wetterlund (Silicon Valley) and Levi Fiehler (Mars) are set to round out the series regular cast.

    Resident Alien is described as a dark, twisted and comedic fish-out-of-water story. Adapted for television by Chris Sheridan (Family Guy), it follows a crash-landed alien named Harry (Tudyk) who, after taking on the identity of a small-town Colorado doctor, slowly begins to wrestle with the moral dilemma of his secret mission on Earth — ultimately asking the question, “Are human beings worth saving?”

    Tudyk’s Doctor Harry Vanderspeigle is one of the town’s most reclusive citizens. The alien is up to no good, but his mission is sidetracked when the local doctor is murdered and our alien Harry is forced to take his place.

    There was definitely never a better time to develop The Boys, considering we're now drowning in super-heroes across every possible medium.

    For anyone not in the know, it's basically a graphic novel about a human-led team that keep misbehaving superheroes in check....and it's violent as hell.

    The Preacher adaptation is pretty lackluster but alright in its own way...but The Boys is actually a lot more straight forward and with less potentially controversial elements so hopefully it'll be a bit more closely related to the material.
