CBS Planning Remake of Classic 'Bewitched' TV Series...Is 'Harry Potter' to Blame?
August 10, 2011 @ 6:09 am PST    Bewitched, Bewitched, Hawaii 5-0, Charlie's Angels, Wonder Woman     Andy Neuenschwander    
My first reaction upon learning that CBS was planning a reboot of the 1960's TV show "Bewitched" was something along the lines of "oh, that makes sense." Why wouldn't they? CBS already rebooted "Hawaii Five-O" and ABC rebooted "Charlie's Angels," and "Wonder Woman" would be gotten back on TV as well if the pilot hadn't been totally underwhelming.

Please Don't: Audrina Patridge Wants Movie Version of 'The Hills'
August 09, 2011 @ 11:55 am PST    The Hills     Andy Neuenschwander    
Of the many, many shows on television that I would love to see turned into a movie (let's get a "Cake Boss" movie going, everyone! Time's a-wasting!), "The Hills" is not on my list. In fact, I did a little jig the day "The Hills" went off the air, because I assumed (correctly) that it would mean the end of Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag. But Audrina Patridge recently told Ryan Seacrest that a movie version of "The Hills" might be in the works soon.

Celebrity cameos have seemingly become a necessary piece of a modern comedy. Ever since "Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle" used Neil Patrick Harris to perfect comedic effect, movies like "Zombieland" (Bill Murray) and "The Hangover" (Mike Tyson) have made sure they have a cameo as well. So which movie will bring the cast of "Jersey Shore" to the big screen for a cameo appearance?
