With the success of the Lego Star Wars
Though The Clone Wars
animated series has obviously garnered a big audience of Star Wars fans on Cartoon Network, the series just might be a bit too intense for some of the younger viewers who still want to journey into a galaxy far, far away. Therefore, children and parents alike might be happy to hear about Lucasfilm’s announcement of a new 30-minute animated special called LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace which will air on Cartoon Network on Friday, July 22nd at 7/6c.

Darren Aronofsky and Michael Chabon…
Really that’s all I need to say. But I’ll mention more from Variety:
Darren Aronofsky is on board to direct “Hobgoblin,” HBO’s upcoming drama pilot in development.
Pilot, to be written by Michael Chabon and his wife, Ayelet Waldman, is about a group of con men and magicians who use their skills of deception to help defeat Hitler and the Germans during WWII.
It kinda sounds like Bitter Seeds
Salman Rushdie science fiction TV series
Exciting new for Showtime, Salman Rushdie is developing a science fiction series for them:
The new work, to be called The Next People is being made for Showtime, a US cable TV network. The plot will be based in factual science, Rushdie said, but will contain elements of the supernatural or extra-terrestrial. Although filming is yet to begin, a pilot has been commissioned and written. It will have what Rushdie described as “an almost feature-film budget”.
Showtime has announced that the hour-long drama will deal with the fast pace of change in modern life, covering the areas of politics, religion, science, technology and sexuality. “It’s a sort of paranoid science-fiction series, people disappearing and being replaced by other people,” said Rushdie, 63, best known for Midnight’s Children and The Satanic Verses. “It’s not exactly sci-fi, in that there is not an awful lot of science behind it, but there are certainly elements which are not naturalistic,” he said in the interview, which will appear in full in the Observer later this month.
Dr. Who season 6 finally gets good (Spoilers ahoy)
I’ve been waiting to blog about Dr. Who season 6. But, so far the season has been mediocre (at best). The opening two-parter was decent, but the next few episodes just never interested me. Then we finally come to “A Good Man Goes to War” and the season explodes into greatness. Here we get the Doctor as a legend and the origin of River Song. What’s not to love? So, let’s see what happened and if you haven’t seen the episode yet, go watch it and come back.
ABC’s Once Upon a Time
Once upon a time, ABC optioned Bill Willingham’s Fables and were looking to make a pilot. Then, a few months ago, it was announced that the producers of Lost
Now, I have many concerns and questions about this show. Mainly about how it will compare to Fables and whether ABC would have been better off using Fables as a starting point, rather than create a whole new story. I most likely will be tuning in for the pilot, but how long I keep watching will be dependent on how well they can run the show. And I’ll be curious, since it will be leading into Desperate Housewives
