Hey guys, Jana here,
CBS knows what we want (more ‘Star Trek‘) and they gave us a little peek of it yesterday at their Upfront presentation in Carnegie Hall when they unveiled the logo and the briefest teaser at what awaits us when we boldly go where no man has gone before. We still have to wait until 2017, but this ratchets up the anticipation for a new crew, new races and hopefully an amazing series.

‘Star Trek’ The Series is beaming up to CBS!
Hi everyone, Bryan Here…
It’s about time this happened. It’s been a while since we’ve had a brand new ‘Star Trek‘ series, and since the new feature film franchise is doing so well, it was inevitable that we would finally have a new series.

‘MacGyver’ Going to Re-boot for CBS!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
I’m trying to keep my personal thoughts to myself on the Hollywood re-make machine that anything successful seems to go into, but these announcements that keep coming make that a harder job than my will-power can topple, so here it is. One of the latest re-makes is not going to be making a big-screen debut, but a small-screen opening that CBS is hoping will be just as big a hit the second time around as it was the first time, I’m talking about the original Mr. Fix-It and Granddaddy of the life hack, ‘Macgyver‘.
Bradley Cooper Will Appear on CBS’ Limitless Adaptation!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
With the networks rolling out their fall lineups, it was expected to find a few little gems to give us some surprise, and CBS achieved that in spades. ‘Limitless‘ is a new series based on the 2011 film of the same name. While the premise of cultivating a series based on a fairly well-received film is not a new idea, having the star from the film carry the series might be, but when the star in question is Bradley Cooper, it’s a shock to the lineup.

I think we’ve answered the question of what the modern equivalent of The Midas Touch is. Vince Gilligan would appear to have it.

Brandon T. Jackson Set As The Star Of CBS’ ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ Reboot!!!

‘Beverly Hills Cop’ Returns As a TV Series At CBS!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
How long have we been hearing about a new ‘Beverly Hills Cop’ project? Probably for the last 10 years or so. Eddie Murphy, who plays the lead Detective Axel Foley has expressed interest in doing another sequel, but he has stated that he didn’t think the third installment was very good, and was holding out for a better script. To me, that doesn’t make sense, because his films over the past several years have been awful, maybe with the exception of ‘Dream Girls’. Instead of a film, we will get a tv series.
