  1. Wow, there are a ton of pilots being filmed. i wonder how many will actually be picked up. Some sound interesting but some also sound cliche.

    You have a mistake for Joey Dakota. Your date is March 20 to march 20. Unless they are filming for a day or a year, maybe the date is wrong.

  2. That’s a heck of a list, I had no idea so many were being filmed for this next season. Still though, there’s only a couple there that seem like they’d be interesting. Mainly, Arrow, I’ve been paying close attention to that and it looks great. The addition of Paul Blackthorne can only make it better too. I loved his portrayal of Harry in the criminally-too-short series, The Dresden Files. It’s kind of a weird coincidence actually, just last week I was browsing through the huge amount of shows on this free streaming site, dishonline(dot)com, run by my employer, DISH, when I ran across The Dresden Files. So I started watching it again, and am pleased to say it’s held up pretty well. If anyone else is interested in seeing what they can find on dishonline, even non-DISH customers can check out a lot of the programming, so it’s worth a few minutes to look into.

  3. Masters of Sex just finished filming in NYC, and is being done for Showtime. Starring Michael Sheen, Lizzy Caplan, Nick D’Agosto, Caitlin Fitzgerald, and Beau Bridges.

  4. Does your blog have a contact page? I’m having a tough time locating it but, I’d like to
    shoot you an email. I’ve got some ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great website and I look forward to seeing it improve over time.
