Showtime takes "Tara" to series.

This is only news because Diablo Cody is the person behind it. Cody recently wrote Juno and has won praise for said flick. Right now she's got a horror flick coming out called Jennifer's Body which stars uber-hot Megan Fox. The United States of Tara will star John Corbett and Toni Collette. I have no idea what the series is about, but it's helmed by Craig Gillispie who recently got mild praise for Lars and the Real Girl. 

More Brotherhood

Showtime has done a good thing...they've reupped Brotherhood for a third season. I love this show, honestly, it's better written than Sopranos ever was. We don't know when the show will come back, mainly because of the Writers Strike.

The Writers Strike has totally fucked everything up. Smallville and countless other hit shows could end as early as March.

TV is not very impressive right now.
