NETFLIX in talks for a third ‘HOUSE OF CARDS’ season
Huzzah! A few weeks back it was reported that House of Cards wasn’t going to span past a second season. Well! Not if Netflix has anything to say about it. Apparently the Streaming Service That Can is in talks to bring the son of a bitch back for a third. You know what I say? Back up the truck! The Money Truck!

NVRMIND: ‘PARKS AND REC’ AIN’T ON HIATUS
Fist pump-fist pump-fist pump-fist pump. Lying websites lying to me, me lying to you. Tears shed. All for nothing. Dry those eyes.

INFOGRAPHIC ADDICT: Every WALTER WHITE OUTFIT on ‘BREAKING BAD.’
Been a hot fucking minute since I featured an infographic I enjoyed here on the Spaceship. They were the fucking berries back in 2009, but I’ve cooled off on my jonseing for them since then. Why, what could resurrect such a love? Only Breaking Bad, ya fucks.
NETFLIX talkin’ to CABLE COMPANIES about getting THEIR SERVICE ON SET-TOP BOXES.
Maybe I’m missing something. But doesn’t Netflix want to fucking katana cable companies in the fucking neck? So why would any cable company sign-on to having the service rocketing through the pipes of their set-top boxes? Is it a money truck that Netflix would back up? Can I ask any more rhetorical questions? Can I?
MARVEL shopping MASSIVE TV PACKAGE. Four Dramas, and a Miniseries. Aiight!
How much Marvel is too much Marvel? The House That Adolf Disney built is hoping that our answer to that query is “there is no such thing.” That is, if these reports are to be believed. And I believe them. Why? ‘Cause why wouldn’t Marvel be trying to capitalize on the success of Agents of Boring Rote Procedurals?
Opinions Vary: My Television Predicament
Rejoice, my friends! We are living in a golden age of television, when viewers have more and better options than ever before. There’s something for everyone, and that something is oftentimes quite impressive. In particular, dramatic narratives have become a go-to form for fans of creative story arcs and complex characters, presenting a more wide-ranging, novelistic approach to visual storytelling than even what most commercial films currently offer. And a pulp paragon of this form is Breaking Bad. It’s so defining, in fact, that some contemplate that it may be seen as this age’s end someday. But let’s be more optimistic than that. There is still a lot of quality TV-watching to be done and now that Breaking Bad has come to an end and fans of the show, myself included, start to turn to other shows, to find quality entertainment somewhere else, I think it’s a good time to explicate my strangely hesitant relationship with narrative television.
NBC developing ‘CONSTANTINE’ TV SERIES with the cruddy DAVID S. GOYER
Things that don’t excite me: David S. Goyer. Otherwise I’d be pretty jazzed about a Constantine television show. ProvidedhesfuckingBritishjesuschrist. ‘Cause you know what? The Garth Ennis run on Hellblazer is some of the finest fucking comic book writing I’ve ever consumed.
MARTIN FREEMAN starring in ‘FARGO’ TV SERIES
Good news, Sherlockians! It appears that Benjamin Cumberbund isn’t going to be the only member of the show who is hideously over-exposed. Dildo Ballbaggins himself is going to be all over our telly in the Fargo small-screen adaptation. Me? I’m pretty excited for the endeavor, my snark put aside.
‘BREAKING BAD’ creator VINCE GILLIGAN’S next show is ‘BATTLE CREEK’ ON CBS
Vincent Gilligan may have blown our Pop Culture Psyche’s collective butt hole inside out with Breaking Bad, but the dude ain’t just sitting around resting on his laurels. The good sir is turning his eyes towards network television, bringing to life a show on CBS that he has been developing for quite some time.
