Fox TV premiere dates are in

Jul 15 2010 Published by under TV

Looks like the premiere dates for network TV are starting to arrive along with some cable stuff too.  Fox released their premiere dates the other day and below are the shows I care about.  Top of that list is Glee.

Lonestar (new series) – Monday Sept 20th
Glee (returning) – Tuesday Sept 21st
Running Wilde (new series) – Tuesday Sept 21st
Fringe (returning) – Thursday Sept 23rd

Certainly not many shows on Fox that I care about, but I’m very excited about Glee, Running Wilde and Fringe, and I’m more than a little intrigued by Lonestar.  I guess I’ll find out what they’re all like in a shade under 10 weeks.

Will Arnett’s WILDE KINGDOM picked up

May 13 2010 Published by under TV

Hell yeah.  Via Deadline:

Mitch Hurwitz and Will Arnett’s Wilde Kingdom has been picked up to series. The show is now being called Running Wilde. The comedy, which also stars Keri Russell, is being produced by Tantamount and Principato-Young Entertainment and Lionsgate. Hurwitz and Arnett co-wrote the pilot with Jim Vallely. The three are executive producing with Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, Peter Principato and Paul Young. It stars Arnett as a rich Beverly Hills jackass who falls in love with a charitable tree-hugging woman (Russell).

Great to see Arnett back on TV.  Everyone with any taste loved him as Gob but he was awesome when he guest starred on 30 Rock too.  Having him on every week is fantastic news.

I know most people have a very low opinion of Sit Down, Shut Up but that show actually grew on me.  That being said, I’m extremely happy to have Hurwitz and Arnett team up again in a live action show.  I’m hoping for big things from Running Wilde.  Until Fox cans the show that is.  And you know they will.  They’re Fox after all.
