There was a live-action movie related to a previous game, I think.

2017-18 Season TV Cancellations/Pilots: E Corp does hostile takeover. Shuts down fsociety

Before 2018 ends.
They have no other breakout show other than D&M, despite a glut of intriguing shows. The love for Bronson's shows also seems to have disappeared.
Shame that Ghosted is getting canceled. Show never really had a chance to get a good footing.
First half of the season was an OK comedy X-Files/Fringe, but since it came back it basically became The Office/Parks and Rec but for a secret government office. It's been funny the last few episodes, but disappointing that they took out nearly all of the sci-fi stuff (replacing it with a spying plot).
Definitely made me miss having a show like Parks and Rec on the air. It's a pretty simple formula (get a group of funny characters together in a work space), and these last few episodes were really nailing the feeling, but knowing that none of it will go anywhere is definitely a bummer.

Maybe but nah... The demise of Canal Plus and CanalPlay is simply called Vivendi.
Bolloré quiclky destroyed everything that was good about the channels as soon as he acquired them. So they lost a shit ton of subscribers, and now, since i guess they are on a much tighter budget than before, they had no choice to cancel Canal Play who indeed had no competing chance against Netflix and Amazon.
My first thought is Western Garo, and my second thought is please let it be western Garo

In my heart there sure is one.
But like also NY Mag: Vice Media was built on a bluff are not the headlines of a healthy company.
(at least they unlike go90 and Fullscreen got headlines on bigger media sites)
I mean a lot of it is on Vivendi/Bolloré, but weird quirks like not being able to stream the shows they made for their cable network can't have helped.
Neat.

Fuck yes. Now there is only one jingoistic bullshit show on air, one too many but I'll take it.
She also mentions that Knightfall is "gearing up for a second season" which would be surprising considering that it didn't do too well in the ratings.
He had a series on USA (Playing House), a series on Netflix (Friends from College), and showed up in a ton of movies. At one point I thought the same thing you thought, but about Jordan.
We watch a ton of TV. More than anyone I know. But sometimes, in the summer, we have moments without any.
I think I watch like 70 shows if you factor in streaming service shows.
That is surprising. One would assume that it's an expensive show to produce, as well.
Patriot's first season was last year and the second has yet to release...
Are you referring to SEAL Team?
My bad.
I'm just glad it was canceled before Walton Goggins managed to pull me in. He's free now though....

Yes, and there isn't much point in arguing any qualities you might see in it to me, I have strong opinions on that entire sub-genre of shows. Which may come across since I refer to that sub-genre as "jingoistic bullshit".
If (and let's stress that it is an if) the THR rumours are true, I can't say I'm overly shocked:
Same. The only reason for these types of shows is to catch those types of people.
Yeah that first half was pretty bad but when it came back I was like wait a minute, they are pulling an office here now? Looked it up and the guy who played Toby was the new showrunner. It was getting really good, too bad they didn't start out with that formula.
Mweh, the few times I've seen her act, I have to press X to Doubt on this one.
Well they sure handled that one poorly. From not notifying the actress to giving her (and the shows fans) a few days of false hope with the "no decision has been made yet" damage control — only to officially cancel it anyway.
I don't watch anything on Freeform except Cloak & Dagger so I hope that gets renewed at least.
pretty much this. Greg pikitis and the first appearance of that son of a bitch Macklin had me rollin and was in love ever since
Wasn't there another one or two martial arts tv shows in the works? Wonder if they are still happening.
Champions cancelled by NBC after one season.
Netflix is in talks about picking up the series since they stream it internationally AND they have a good relationship with Mindy Kaling and Bela Bajaria but nothing serious has happened yet.
EDIT: Never mind. TV Line says that Netflix already passed on it.

waiting for the Reverie cancellation
though it still remains entertaining and I love like C or D grade writing in shows.

Yeah.... nah.
Nobody can enjoy a dumb fun military show unless they are a Trumpster or far right?
SEAL Team is just dumb fun with a likeable star(and supporting cast) with extremely high production value with scenes typically only relegated to just movies or at least something bigger like Last Ship(which I also enjoy but its a different and more silly niche)
It was also nice that it wasn't played out Afghan/Iraq stuff until the last arc of the season but the twist was the PMC working with them was behind all of it.
Six on the other hand always felt like it was trying too hard to be serious.
I can agree with you on it(I couldn't make it past a few episodes)
The Brave was even lower tier however the main cast really carried that show, just a group of diverse likeable people. everything else was secondary
Valor doesn't even fit in comparison because its 50% romance drama and the other half is about CIA shit(killing its own agents, giving nuclear material to warlords to stage shit) and coverups.
hell it ends on the reveal that
MC's boyfriend's mom(a senator) was the big boss all along

Which is super weird. They were doing ADR work in post-production five months back, Amazon must be holding it for the fall.
I enjoy the heightened masculinity. It's weird, because I don't think I'm watching it ironically, but I guess an outsider would say I am.
Then again, my favourite scene in Top Gun is the beach volleyball scene. lol
Warrior at Cinemax is, I think, still filming but they may have wrapped production on the first season already.
Tong Wars at Amazon received a series order but I have no idea where it's at right now.
Wong Kar-Wai is directing it so it'll be gorgeous looking but it'll also debut in 2025.
As for real news, it seems like the show is entering principal photography in July 2018 and ending in January.
This was back in December, so late news, but here are the character descriptions:
hold on that weird show with the quiet guy on Adult Swim is actually good?
Derrickson publicly speaking out against this is interesting. Clearly trying to apply public pressure. Feels like this show may not even happen, but we'll see... I mean if they're willing to throw out a completely shot feature-length pilot...
I have been eagerly awaiting it. Hopefully it gains some viewers and buzz.
I have to give him props for standing by Friedman, especially at this stage when there's virtually no chance they'd reverse course after a few months of redevelopment. I'd love to know how much this is screwing around with the actors and their commitments. The pilot originally shot last September, the series was picked up in January, and now this stuff?
