After CBS yesterday wrapped its round of early pickups of the series it considered no-brainers for renewal, it has started to shed the weakest of the rest. Monday comedy Living Biblically has been pulled from the schedule effective immediately. Starting next week, it will be replaced by repeats of The Big Bang Theory.
The move is not a surprise. Living Biblically is CBS’ least watched series this season and tied for last place in adults 18-49 (Live+same day). CBS earlier this season also pulled freshman Monday comedy Me, Myself & I off the schedule after several modestly rated airings. Neither is expected to return next season.
Through its eight airings to date, Living Biblically averaged 4.2 million viewers and a 0.65 18-49 rating (L+Sd).

The eight half-hour episodes will see The Big Bang Theory star orchestrating a team of inventive scientists who use science to feed people’s minds — and to mess with their heads.

“The Big Bang Theory” is the “Wayne Gretzky of comedy,” he noted, arguing that no other half-hour comes close in total viewers, which is why they’re big on spinoff entry “Young Sheldon.” The show was recently renewed for two more seasons, a negotiation that Moonves characterized as amicable.

A sequel for "Green Lantern" is still possible to hit the big screen, despite its disappointing box office performance. Warner Bros. Pictures points out that they still put the DC Comic-adapted movie as a top priority and even already have a plan for the sequel, revealing that it will be "edgier and darker."

It turns out that Warner Bros. was "smarter than the average bear" when they produced the Yogi Bear movie. Though many panned it, the film was a success and the studio is moving forward with plans for a sequel.
Based on the classic Hanna-Barbera cartoon character, Yogi Bear premiered last December to a $16.4 million opening. That's not a great start but the picture ended up averaging more than $100 million before it left U.S. theaters. It also grossed another $100 million internationally and you just know they must have sold a lot of DVDs.
According to Variety, Warner's has signed the Yogi Bear writing team of Joshua Sternin and Jeffrey Ventimilia to pen the script. Donald De Line and Karen Rosenfelt will produce once again with Andrew Haas as executive producer.

Are you ready for another trip to Jellystone Park? For quite despite last December’s Yogi Bear’s critical mawling (to the tune of 13% on Rotten Tomatoes), Warner Bros. are pushing forward with a sequel.
Blowing conservative estimations with a $100 million U.S. haul (and having grossed another $100 million internationally), Yogi Bear – which starred Dan Aykroyd as the titular bear and Justin Timberlake as his accomplice, Boo-Boo – showed incredibly long legs at the box office.
With Rio’s Joshua Sternin and Jeffrey Ventimilia signed as writers, and Donald De Line and Karen Rosenfelt returning as producers, Andrew Haas will once again executive produce as Jon Berg oversees production on the sequel for Warners.
At the very least – because I’m a picnic-basket-is-half-full – Yogi Bear 2 will give Warners reason to develop another Roadrunner and Coyote short to precede their film with. At the very least.
Variety had this one first. Blame them.

Bringing the enduringly popular superhero to the big screen for the first time, have a look at the 3rd trailer for Green Lantern starring Ryan Reynolds in the title role, under the direction of Martin Campbell.
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds). Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before.

[1] In early August 2010, I had the opportunity to travel to New Orleans to visit the set of the big screen adaptation of Green Lantern. After returning from the set, I recorded a video blog with Frosty from Collider [2] -- an in depth discussion about what we saw during the visit and our early impressions. Keep in mind, we didn't see any completed computer effects rendered footage. My big takeaway from the visit is that Warner Bros isn't just making a superhero movie, but that they are making a big space opera. The scope is huge and very ambitious and I'm excited to see if they can pull it off, and if mainstream America are willing to accept the abundance of hard sci-fi elements. I can tell you, I'm excited (despite some of the early unfinished special effects shots). Watch our set visit video blog embedded after the jump. And throughout...

[1] Warner Bros was so happy with the reaction to the 10 minutes of Green Lantern footage from CinemaCon and WonderCon that they have decided to put four minutes online for fans nationwide to see. While the video claims to be an abridged four minute video from the WonderCon footage, I spotted a bunch of shots that weren't screened at WonderCon/CinemaCon (for example, the mask footage -- which I still think looks unfinished).

Four "Green Lantern" clips have been screened during CinemaCon on Friday, April 1. After the first trailer did not receive positive responds from fans, Warner Bros. has revealed 10 minutes of footage from the Martin Campbell-directed film.
The first clip sees Abin-Sur talking to Sinestro. While Sinestro tells him about a planet destroyed by Parallax, Abin-Sur is attacked by the enemy which is shown as a creature with a large yellow head and sharp teeth. Abin-Sur is suffered from injury and escapes in a pod. Unfortunately, he crashes lands on Earth.
The second video features dying Abin-Sur and his spaceship in the water. Hal Jordan comes and tries to save the alien by pulling him out of the ship. Later, he is recruited as the replacement of Abin-Sur by receiving his ring, and is told to use the ring with the lantern in Abin-Sur's spaceship.

I am still waiting to be blown away by Green Lantern. I guess it’s still far off from getting a perfect adaptation. Still, the thought of Ryan Reynolds in the lead role and Martin Campbell directing, you would expect something to blow you away and make you say, ‘this is the movie we have been waiting for.’ The first two minute and twenty seven second trailer seems to just underwhelm and I can’t put my finger on why that is. Still, it has a cool Iron Man/Star Trek vibe too it and all the blockbuster elements for a fun film, but I guess I am expecting something epic. Maybe I should lower these expectations. That being said, Warner Brothers has released the first trailer for the film along with a new piece of promo art.

More Green Lantern news DC fans! The first film to immortalise Hal Jordan hasn’t even hit our screens yet, but of course in the manic, mass produced world of Hollywood this seems to make little difference, as news has hit that writing for Green Lantern 2 is already underway!
We’ve known for a couple of months now that a treatment for the sequel has been floating round Hollywood, but now Michael Goldenberg has been hired to get the script ready for, I’d hazard a guess, a late 2011 shoot. This isn’t the first time that Goldenberg has been involved in the Lantern project, having been brought in to work on the script during production of the first installment – set to hit cinema screens in June next year.

We’ve known for a couple of months now that a treatment for the sequel has been floating round Hollywood, but now Michael Goldenberg has been hired to get the script ready for, I’d hazard a guess, a late 2011 shoot. This isn’t the first time that Goldenberg has been involved in the Lantern project, having been brought in to work on the script during production of the first installment – set to hit cinema screens in June next year.

One of my most anticipated Panels this year at Comic-Con was for Green Lantern, and it was pretty freakin’ awesome!
Geoff Johns comes out to talk about the new Green Lantern film telling us how excited he is for the film, and they got right into it by showing us the first footage ever from the film!
Here's the Footage Description:
The footage they showed was an unfinished cut, but it looked absolutely amazing! It started out with with a green glowing orb and a voice over of Mark Strong as Sinestro telling the viewer to concentrate on the light in front of them.
"Welcome inhabitants of sector 2814. The Guardians have chosen you as candidates for enlistment but before you can be recruited, you must be tested. The light you see before you is controlled by your will. Focus on the light. If you will it, it will be. Now,...

Hey gang! Some more details from Warner Bros. upcoming comic book adaptation of Green Lantern have been revealed! There may be a few things that are considered spoilers so watch out.
The image that we saw of Green Lantern on the cover of EW is still a work in progress. From the neck down is basically what we see in the film. The CGI is still not finished in the image. The mask was obviously photoshopped in. The real mask will be a physical mask and not look like it's been painted on his face. 25 alien Green Lanterns, each with a different energy signature, were designed for major and minor roles in the movie. The film will mostly be based mainly Secret Origins. A key-scene in the film will feature all the 3,600 Green Lanterns! Parallax's origin is different from the comics. Fans of Sinestro will be happy to know that the mustache is untouched.

I'm excited.
Ryan Reynolds stars as Hal Jordan, a cocky test pilot who becomes a ring-wearing intergalactic superhero in this massive sci-fi epic from director Martin Campbell (Casino Royale). Though Reynolds has prior experience in the superhero realm from his role as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, playing Green Lantern involved some major challenges, like getting hurled through the air on a wire at up to 60 feet per second to create the illusion of flight. “The first time you do it, you...

Warner Bros is broadening its big-screen superhero spectrum beyond Batman and Superman with the addition of the less well-known Green Lantern, in the hope of repeating the success of Marvel's similarly second-tier Iron Man.
And with Ryan Reynolds in the title role and other cast members including Gossip Girls's Blake Lively, Mark Strong and Angela Bassett, the omens look good so far.
There's been little information at this stage - the film isn't out until next June - though we have seen leaked set pictures of Peter Sarsgaard as Hector Hammond, a shot of the spaceship linked to Hal Jordan becoming the Green Lantern, and some images of Reynolds in a dot-covered motion-capture suit on to which the otherworldly green uniform of his character will be digitally mapped.
Now comes some more clues for fans in the form of what appears to be the official synopsis from Warner Bros.
