One wonders how this wasn't addressed sooner. With a Tuesday table read scheduled for the upcoming fourth season, the Emmy-collecting adult cast of ABC's "Modern Family" could have the network over a barrel to discuss new deals. None of the six have contracts for the coming season, and rumors have at least five of them wanting an increase into the six-figure range that only Ed O'Neill currently occupies.

Networks have been accommodating a collectively stunned national conscience this weekend, in deference to Friday's tragedy surrounding an Aurora, Colo. "The Dark Knight Rises" premiere. The first programming one would've expected changed has remained steadfast, though. TNT and FX aren't shying from showing Christopher Nolan's previous Batman movies, "The Dark Knight" and "Batman Begins."

"The X Factor" might have missed the boat snagging Mariah Carey. Not coincidentally, "The X Factor" didn't have "American Idol" judge and previous Carey collaborator Randy Jackson. The multi-Grammy winner is reportedly close to a deal to judge the twelfth season of "Idol" on Fox this fall.
