Well, "Alcatraz" ended its first - and in all likelihood, only - season as it lived: fairly pathetically. The one-hour drama about seemingly deceased prisoners of the famed San Francisco penitentiary that once more walk the Earth pulled in 4.7 million viewers and earned an anemic 1.5 rating among adults age 18-49....a 6-percent slip to a series-low number. The two-hour finale helped put FOX into fourth place Monday night, averting the seppuku-worthy failure of getting beaten out by The CW.

One could've forgiven anybody who'd previously lost "Prometheus" among the summer-movie shuffle presently dominated by "The Dark Knight Rises" and "The Avengers." One well-received teaser-for-the-teaser and a rave-reviewed teaser trailer later, the Ridley Scott space romp looks more and more like a must-see. With the film hitting theaters June 8, it's about time the TV campaign began.

I'm old enough to remember a time when Facebook was restricted to people 18 years of age and older - specifically, to current and former post-high school students. Or as I'd rather call it..."the good old days." As a consequence of a moment of "Just what the f*** was THAT supposed to accomplish?", irritating moppett with a record deal Justin Bieber now faces possible legal action from a Texas couple whose phone number he published to 19 million Bieber-Fever patients.

"Terra Nova" had one last gasp that could've saved it. An online streaming deal's failure has choked it out, The Huffington Post reports. Following its cancellation by FOX, rumors surfaced that the Steven Spielberg-produced drama about futuristic human coexisting with dinosaurs could find a new home producing and streaming new episodes streaming exclusively online via Netflix.

The Weinstein Co. and makers of the buzzed-about documentary "Bully" didn't get exactly what they wanted, but settle for a more ambiguous compromise. The Motion Picture Association of America recently denied the Weinstein Co.'s request that the regulatory board reduce film's "R" rating based reportedly on one scene's explicit language to a "PG-13". The film will now be released March 30 with an "Unrated" mark.

Saints Nation is still reeling from head coach Sean Payton's one-year suspension handed down by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Still, if Payton must sit this dance out, an all-time coaching great and two-time Super Bowl winner may be a fitting fill-in. Payton will meet Tuesday in Florida with retired coach Bill Parcells and address the possibility Parcells might become the team's interim head coach, ESPN reports.
