Grey's Anatomy and more shows back in production, soon!

There it is, I'm seeing light at the end of the tunnel!

Production of ABC shows like Grey's Anatomy, Brothers and Sisters, and Desperate Housewives, will very soon be rolling after the strike is lifted (strike talks almost nearing its end). The target date for people to return to work is early March and shows are expected to complete and air at least five episodes until May.

Freshmen favorites Pushing Daisies, Dirty Sexy Money and Samantha Who? will also be back in production. But they will be doing episodes for Season 2 and not the remainder of the season (so yes, their first season run is done).

Expect a similar pattern to play out at CBS, NBC and Fox: Established shows returning in the spring; newer ones held till fall. | Ausiello

Arrested Development, The Movie

Talks have been going on for sometime now about bringing the short-lived comedy series Arrested Development to the big screen.



Over the weekend, Jason Bateman, the star of the show, tells E! that the plan is now underway. But at this point, it's still all talk. That news from E! changes nothing from that news clip on Youtube.

I dunno...somehow, I would've been a lot happier if the news says they were gonna do the TV series again.

I do kinda miss Lucille, Buster and the kids calling their grandpa, "Pop-pop".

Wait, do I have enough time to hit the DVDs and rewatch the series before the strike is lifted? Hmmmm...

Strike Watch: It's Almost Over, Hoooray!

New York Times: Deal to End Hollywood Writers’ Strike May Be Near

My TV watching plate should be full in three or four week's time. Kinda psyched about it. But also pretty apprehensive. Some schedule changes are in order for me, once again. I am already feeling the pressure. LOL! Watching TV sometimes stresses me out. Especially if I have to do it for work.

Whooo.
