Terra Nova Co-Star Stephen Lang Calls Foxs Decision To Cancel Series Myopic
EXCLUSIVE: While Terra Nova star Jason O’Mara required to Twitter moments after Fox cancelled Terra Nova and it has been rallying fan support since, his co-lead on the program Stephen Lang hadn't said around the problem so far. Here's Lang’s response to the cancellation in the own words. Meanwhile Terra Nova producer twentieth century Fox TV, which in fact had been near employing a brand new showrunner for Season 2 when Fox drawn the plug, is within talks with Netflix about possibly obtaining the pre-historic drama. “Terra Nova is similar towards the Hubble Space Telescope. Within days of the much promoted and ballyhooed launch in 1990, the Hubble was discovered to possess a serious flaw. Yet despite an incorrectly ground mirror the Hubble shipped remarkable images. Once the flaw was remedied the Hubble shipped images of transcendent beauty and cost for several years. Also Terra Nova. Even just in it’s problematic first season each episode was filled with wonderful moments and delightful images. With correction, and because of the chance, Terra Nova will deliver seasons of transcendent images and story-telling. Neglecting to renew Terra Nova is shortsighted, as myopic because it ended up being scrap the Hubble. Terra Nova may be the Hubble Telescope of television.” – Stephen Lang

Friends With Kids the Best Bridesmaids Reunion That Never Was
Stephanie Zacharek's review pretty much confirmed this, but! For the record, Dear Consumer: "The advertisements emphasize the Bridesmaids pseudo-reunion, making it look like it's a rollicking comedic romp with Kristen Wiig, Jon Hamm, Maya Rudolph, and Chris O'Dowd all just giggling and making silly faces. [...] Those four, the Bridesmaids folk, they really don't have much to do other than pop in every 20 minutes or so to comment on the action, a sort of Greek chorus surrounding our two heroes. It's also worth noting that none of them is actually funny, by design. You know that scene you've seen the commercial where Wiig and Hamm sneak out of the restaurant bathroom, post coitus? That's in the first five minutes of the movie, right before a 'Four Years Later' insert. Wiig spends the rest of the film crying into various glasses of wine while Hamm yells at her. It's a real laugh riot." [Deadspin]
