ABC Renews ‘Nashville’ for a Third Season After Tax Credit Issues

0

ABC has decided to renew ‘Nashville’ after a long and hard battle over budget and tax incentives.

ABC has renewed country music drama Nashville, for a 22 episode third season.

The Nashville series is a huge series with big actors including Connie Britton and Hayden Panettiere. The show has developed a following and a growing audience. But, everything wasn’t all cowboys and banjos. Recently, ABC was going to pull the plug on the show but decided to decrease the budget. This left the producers and studios to fill a large gap in production costs. In order to help fill that gap, producers discussed with Tennessessee’s film and television commission about a larger tax incentive.

Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development had previously said of the show, “You’re not only getting the 20-plus episodes per season, every advertisement and preview for the TV show is essentially advertising Nashville.” Tennessee committed $12.5 million to Nashville for the 2013-14 fiscal year in a package created outside the normal incentive program — a cost weighed against the estimated $40 million in economic impact the show was generating for the state. Needless to say, Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development filled the shows of the budgetary gap for the television series.

Universal Pictures’ Neighbors has topped The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in the box office.

Neighbors will take the number one spot this weekend as the Spiderman slid down 59% in its second weekend.

Neighbors which received a B according to CinemaScore, will make Over $46 million dollars in its opening weekend.

With the decrease in ticket purchases for the new Spiderman movie it begs the question, how is Marvel going to keep audiences entertained when movie sales do not last past opening weekend?

The Legends of Oz: Dorothy Returns failed to capture audiences as it only placed 8th in the box office.

Hollywood Fights on TV and Film Sets Giving Productions a Bad Name

0

Fights among Teamsters on television and film productions are giving the union a bad name.

Teamsters are the drivers, warehouse workers, casting directors, truck drivers, etc. on television and film productions. But, according to deadline, fights among drivers have gotten so bad that the secretary-treasurer of Teamsters Local 399 has warned their members that they will be fired if they continue to fight.

Here’s what the secretary-treasurer had to say:

Due to the escalating number of incidences being reported, I must take a moment to address the Membership. We are finding that more and more Members are fighting with one another on set. It is my duty to say – Knock It Off!

When two Members get into an altercation we have found that in order to remedy the situation quickly BOTH Members will immediately be LAID-OFF. Whether you were the one to instigate the situation or not you will both be released from the job.

If either party has an issue that cannot be resolved amongst yourselves, call the Union first and we’ll have a meeting at the hall with both parties to resolve the issue.

On or off set you are always representing the legacy and tradition of our great Union. As a Teamster and Member of Local 399 we must work together as Brothers and Sisters putting differences aside for the betterment of our Membership.

Please demonstrate the professionalism we know you’re capable of. Thank you.

CBS Announces Six New Shows to their Line-Up including NCIS: New Orleans

0

CBS has recently announced the order for several new television series comedies and dramas.

These new dramas include a new NCIS: New Orleans, Madam Secretary, Stalker, and Scorpion. CBS also picked up several comedies including Matthew Perry’s The Odd Couple reboot, and The McCarthys.

The new NCIS: New Orleans series centers on NCIS New Orleans office, which handles cases from Pensacola through Mississippi and Louisiana to the Texas panhandle. The new series features Scott Bakula, Paige Turco, Lucas Black, CCH Pounder, and Zoe McLellan.

The next new drama includes Madam Secretary. The show explores the personal and professional life of a maverick female Secretary of State as she drives international diplomacy, wrangles office politics and balances a complex family life.

Stalker is a new and scary series that follows a pair of detectives who handle stalking incidents for the Threat Management Unit of the LAPD. The new series features Dylan McDermott, Maggie Q, Mariana Klaveno, and Victor Rasuk.

In Scorpion, an eccentric genius and his international network of super-geniuses form the last line of defense against the complex threats of the modern age.

The two new comedies added to CBS include The McCarthy’s–a big Irish Catholic, sports-crazed Boston clan and the gay son whose greatest sin is not his sexuality but his desire to spend less time with his family, and The Odd Couple— a reboot of the classic series about the messy Oscar Madison and the neat-freak Felix Unger, who are roommates.

There were several television series that did not survive past the pilot episode, according to Deadline.

As for the the pilots that did make cut, there are no big surprises. The Tea Leoni-starring DC drama Madam Secretary, from Barbara Hall, had been an early frontrunner, with NCIS: New Orleans starring Scott Bakula, the scary Stalker and action-driven Scorpion all solid contenders. The Odd Couple was the only fully owned CBS comedy pilot that is based on a big CBS property and toplined by a big TV star, Perry. Originally a dark horse, The McCarthys had been slowly but steadily picking up momentum.
