[Editor’s Note: Spoilers for “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” Season 5, Episode 10, “Game Night” follow.]
The Fox comedy “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” for reasons made obvious by its title, chose to celebrate its 99th episode last week, putting the spotlight on each character during a crazy road trip from Los Angeles to New York. But it also included a big reveal that became a central part of the show’s 100th episode, “Game Night” — Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz), the show’s resident badass, coming out as bisexual.
Rosa’s coming-out, showrunner Dan Goor told IndieWire, was a story choice made in close discussion with Beatriz this season. “In a way, after Stephanie came out, and has really in so many ways become such an Lgbt advocate, we felt like it was really a meaningful opportunity for the character, and it definitely felt in-world for the character. It didn’t feel like, you know, we didn’t feel like people would be like, ‘What?!’ You know, and 100 episodes in it feels like a good,...

Over the course of “Mr. Robot’s” run, composer Mac Quayle has done a pretty effective job creating an eerie and ethereal (etheerieal?) backdrop to one man’s psychological self-sabotage. The ongoing trials of Elliot Alderson have been underscored by electronic-heavy instrumentals, highlighting the character in moments of triumph and moments of despair (more on that later).
As good as Quayle has been, the series has also benefited from a finely curated set of musical moments, with some of the most memorable “Mr. Robot” sequences bolstered by an impeccable soundtrack selected by music supervisors Amie Bond and Charlie Haggard. Some of these have been the numerous string of classical favorites used to set up Tyrell Wellick in various stages of upper-class crises. Others have drawn on electronic music icons that have influenced the show in more ways than one.

NBC's hit comedy About a Boy returns Tuesday at 9:30/8:30c, and no one is more excited for the show's second season than star David Walton. After all, this is his first time.
"This is my first Season 2 experience, and I really like it," he tells TVGuide.com. "It's just nice to be employed."
Despite his talent, good looks and charm, Walton is quite familiar with the alternative of not having a gig. Over the past decade, he has starred on six failed network TV shows (Cracking Up, Heist, Quarterlife, 100 Questions, Perfect Couples and Bent) before finding success on...

In a small victory, NBC has renewed a freshman comedy. In a predictable defeat, NBC has cancelled a J.J. Abrams-produced drama. Actually, ABC did a lot more than that on Friday (May 9), but you've already seen Sepinwall's stories on the glorious renewal of "Hannibal" and the tragic cancellation of "Community." You can decide if you feel similar elation and dejected about this latest bit of NBC Good News/Bad News: The network has ordered a second season for "About a Boy," but NBC has also confirmed that the second season will be the end of the line for "Revolution." The renewal for "About a Boy" wasn't a shocker. Boosted by "The Voice," the Jason Katims adaptation of the Nick Hornby novel and subsequent film has been NBC's biggest comedy success in several years, even if ratings have been slipping somewhat in recent weeks. As the news broke, there...

Format: TV movie Network: ABC Runtime: 60 minutes Synopsis For the past two years Hawkeye has been sent on a mission by Shield to investigate and eliminate a super-soldier serum trade that has been going on all across Turkey. As Hawkeye gets closer to the main source of the trade he must first overcome a few challenges, both physically and mentally. Director Doug Liman I have chosen Doug Liman as the Director of this because I imagine this film having a somewhat similar tone to Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Hawkeye and Mockingbird have similar chemistry to the characters John and Jane Smith. Also Doug Liman has done some TV work before such as The O.C. and Heist.

Horror Is Child’S Play – Don Mancini’S Curse Of Chucky (World Premiere)
A rarity among genre franchises, the Child’S Play series (begun in 1988) has retained the sure-handed guidance of original screenwriter/creator Don Mancini throughout killer doll Chucky’s decades’-long reign of horror. Mancini, who will be hosting our “scar-studded” world premiere, graduated to the director’s chair with 2004’s Seed Of Chucky, after having co-written or written every entry in the series. His longevity with the project is, of course, matched by the fiendish voiceover work by...

Exclusive: An irreverent multi-generational comedy from Robb and Mark Cullen sparked a bidding war among multiple networks. It has just landed at the network that boasts the top family comedy on the air right now, ABC. Like Modern Family, the new single-camera project, titled Safe At Home, hails from 20th Century Fox TV. Safe At Home centers on a strong-willed, divorced, single mother who has to move back home with her salty, former career-minor-league-baseball-playing widower father and raise her son while navigating her new community and situation as she coaches her son’s little league team. In addition to writing, the Cullen brothers are executive producing with Aaron Kaplan of Kapital Entertainment. Mark and Robb Cullen created the praised FX comedy series Lucky as well as the Fox drama Heist. The duo has been focused on features for the past couple of years and wrote the 2010 action comedy Cop Out.

Looking to make good on his promise to summon back as much of the surviving Machete cast as possible, Robert Rodriguez has now signed Michelle Rodriguez for Machete Kills. And that’s not the only film she’s locked in a deal for – but more on that one in a moment…Machete Kills will shoot first, kicking off production this month in Texas. Rodriguez is reprising her role as resistance leader Luz. This time around, she’ll be helping Danny Trejo’s titular Federale hunt down Mendez The Madman, Mexico’s biggest cartel leader.

As expected, Tate Taylor's "The Help" won big at the 43rd Annual NAACP Image Awards. The film won Outstanding Picture of the Year with Viola Davis winning Outstanding Actress and Octavia Spencer taking home the Outstanding Supporting Actress award. Taylor lost to "Jumping the Broom's" Salim Akil for Best Director because apparently, it's a better picture than "The Help!"

It's easy to get bogged down by a premise, especially when it comes to sitcoms, but CBS's "Mike & Molly" rises above the token fat jokes in its new comedy by casting two relatable leads -- who just happen to be overweight.
The series instead focuses on the awkwardness, romance and hilarity of new love, amplified by the adorable sheepishness of the title characters and told from the very beginning.
Not that "Mike & Molly" doesn't really go for it with the size issue. The couple, played by Billy Gardell ("My Name is Earl," "Heist") and Melissa McCarthy ("Gilmore Girls," "Samantha Who?") meet at an Overeaters Anonymous meeting. And that's not where the chubby puns begin or end.
The opening scene features Mike lamenting his modest lunch with his best friend, and partner in law enforcement, Carl (Reno Wilson), cracking wise about his diet. And our first glimpse of Molly is of...

If I were to compile a list of great directors who have undergone mid-career crash and burns, Doug Liman would have to be somewhere near the top -- how do you follow up Swingers, Go, The Bourne Identity and even Mr. and Mrs. Smith with ... Jumper, which is the only film that Liman has made in half a decade (and believe it or not, there's a Jumper sequel in development)? It seems that, in the interim, Liman has been too busy developing lousy ("Knight Rider 2.0") or unsuccessful ("Heist") television shows to put a lot of effort into directing.
That may change soon -- Liman already has a film, Fair Game (about the Valerie Plame ordeal) in the can, with Sean Penn and Naomi Watts in the leads (and I'm surprised we haven't seen a trailer yet). Next up, Liman is planning to tackle the Attica prison riots. Liman's got himself a solid screenwriter in tow,...

"Burn Notice" is the action/comedy-drama series created by Matt Nix, starring Jeffrey Donovan, Gabrielle Anwar and Sharon Gless, debuting June 28, 2007 on the USA Network. Renewed for a fourth season, the second half of season 3 returns Thursday, January 21, 2010.
The title of the series refers to the 'burn notices' issued by intelligence agencies to discredit or announce the dismissal of agents/sources who are considered to have become 'unreliable'.
When a spy is burned, they are wiped off the grid, without access to cash or influence. According to the narration during the opening credits, the burned spy has no prior work history, no money; in essence, no identity.
The series is a first-person narrative (including frequent voice-overs) from the viewpoint of covert-operations agent 'Michael Westen' (Donovan).
"...Consumed by the desire to find out why he has been burned, and by whom, Westen goes to work as an unlicensed private investigator/spy...

If you had called Seann William Scott and Adam Brody a couple of d—s a few days ago, it would’ve been a mere matter of harsh opinion. Today, it is a matter of fact.
The Hollywood Reporter has the scoop that the “Role Models” actor and the former “The O.C.” star have both signed on for Kevin Smith’s latest project, “A Couple of Dicks.” The film, which begins shooting on Monday, is a buddy cop action-comedy starring Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan as two detectives trying to track down a valuable stolen baseball card. From the sound of it, Scott and Brody’s roles are directly linked to the film’s central plot.
According to THR, Scott will play the filthily named S–t Bandit — yes, you know what “s–t” stands for — a robber that leaves trademark “souvenirs” at the scenes of his crimes. And by “souvenirs,...

With this past weekend's $23.7 million opening of "17 Again," Zac Efron has taken his first successful step toward carving out a career beyond the "High School Musical" franchise that shot him to popularity.
Now he faces the even-trickier prospect of building on that momentum as he plots his next move.
"I'm looking very carefully at the movies being offered," Efron said last week on the eve of "17's" bow. "It's about taking my fan base with me but then doing movies that open me up to a broader level."
To that end, "17" could be considered a cinematic bar mitzvah of sorts: The 21-year-old actor proved that he is more than just another pretty boy and that he could be on the verge of becoming a young leading man.
Certainly, some in Hollywood are rooting for him. With such A-listers as Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp well into their 40s...
