NBC's follow-up to "The Sound of Music Live!" is already decided: The network is taking us to Neverland.
At NBC's presentation during the Television Critics Association press tour, network chair Bob Greenblatt announced that NBC's next musical will be "Peter Pan."
Greenblatt didn't go into much detail, but we do know that the presentation will be live, and that it will be based more on the Broadway version than the Disney movie version.

Critics and ticket-buyers rarely agree about which movies are the best, and this week's Oscar nominations showcased the disconnect between box-office success and artistic accolades. The Academy loves "Her," but before it was nominated for Best Picture, audiences barely noticed it.

After the first season of "Gilligan's Island," the show's theme song was revised to specifically name the Professor. In retrospect, it's hard to imagine that the show's producers ever thought the character was secondary and not worth mentioning. Russell Johnson, the actor who personified the Professor, died this week.

Justin Bieber might end up giving us the first-ever arrest for child pornography brought on by eggs.
As you probably now know, police raided the 19-year-old pop star's home earlier this week following an egging incident. Bieber allegedly egged his neighbor's home with friends, causing upwards of $20,000 worth of damage.
That felony-level charge lead to the raid, which turned up some incriminating items, including a small amount of cocaine allegedly possessed by Bieber's friend Lil' Za, who was then arrested.
