MadTV reunion episode is coming soon to the CW Network

MadTV was one of those TV shows I would stay up late and watch every weekend as a kid. And growing up there were only two type of people, people that enjoyed Saturday Night Live and those that enjoyed MadTV, I was in the latter. Sadly, the show would get cancelled and placed in the bin of shows to never return to TV until now.

According to Deadline, the Emmy-winning sketch comedy series MadTV will return with a reunion special at 8 PM Tuesday, January 12th.

The hourling special will feature clips and flashback episodes showcasing parodies and the politically incorrect humor from the show’s 14 season history.

The special will center around an award ceremony to honor the series, but nothing goes as planned.

Fox Renews ‘Wayward Pines’ For Season 2

0

Fox is bringing back Wayward Pines for another season.

The network on Wednesday has given the green light for the limited series executive produced by M. Night Shyamalan and Chad Hodge. Hodge, who developed the property based on Blake Crouch’s book and worked as the series showrunner, will not return for a second season. Mark Friedman from the TV series The Forgotten and Believe will replace Hodge as the series showrunner.

Wayward Pines will return for the summer 2016 and will pick up after the events of the season-one finale, when someone new arrives in the mysterious town during a major rebellion over how to preserve the human race.

Wayward Pines was a huge hit for us this past summer,” Fox Broadcasting Entertainment president David Madden said Wednesday in a statement. “We were absolutely blown away by the mysterious and surprising world that Night and his team created, and the twisting-and-turning storytelling that drew viewers in from day one. Season two is going to take the suspense, the vision of the future and the haunting character drama to whole new levels, and we can’t wait for our fans to continue that ride next year.”

Wayward Pines was ranked as the highest rated broadcast scripted series in the key demographic last summer.

Wayward Pines originally starred Matt Dillon, Toby Jones, Carla Gugino, Melissa Leo and Terrence Howard but, after events that occurred in Season 1 it is difficult to say who will be returning to the sci-fi drama.

Jared Leto Bashes Taylor Swift: “”I Mean f*** her, I don’t give a **** about her.”

Jared Leto has just bashed Taylor Swift.

Jared Leto Gif

TMZ has captured Jared Leto bashing the singer. The joker of the upcoming Suicide Squad movie has just dropped the F-bomb while listening to some of Taylor Swift’s new records in a recording studio.

“I Mean f*** her, I don’t give a **** about her.

Jared Leto’s blunt remark comes near the end of this TMZ video:

Leto’s friend can be heard in the background saying, “Charlie XCX… she just… like, stole it from her,” which Jared appears to agree with. Leto also refuses to bite his tongue while listening to a sample of Taylor Swift’s hit song Welcome to New York saying

“Oh, I don’t like this at all – next!”

Jared Leto supposedly got deep into character for the role of Joker in the new movie Suicide Squad, so maybe his attitude is part of the method acting. Or he just can’t stand Taylor Swift?

‘The Sandlot’ Actor Facing 4 Years in Prison After Halloween Assault

‘The Sandlot’ actor, Michael Anthony Vitar, is accused of beating up a 22-year-old man who was handing out candy.

The Sandlot will probably go down in history as one of the best cult-classic coming of age stories in the the last twenty years. But, one of the stars of the classic baseball film has been charged with assaulting a man on Halloween and is currently facing four years in prison if he is convicted of the crime.

According to reports, former actor, Michael Anthony Vitar, who played Benjamin Franklin Rodriguez (aka Benny the Jet) in the 1993, was charged Tuesday with “one count of assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury” following an assault that took place on Halloween.

Apparently, Vitar, who is now a firefighter, was walking down the street with his Thomas Molnar and Eric Carpenter, fellow LA firefighters when they saw the victim handing out candy. They allegedly chased him down and jumped him before Carpenter allegedly choked the victim.

The two firefighters have been placed on paid administrative leave pending a criminal investigation. If convicted, Carpenter will be charged with “personally inflicting great bodily injury,” and faces up to seven years in state prison. Vitar and Molnar face up to four years each in state prison.
