The "Worked Late on a Friday" Linkspam
Apr. 26th, 2013 10:21 pm* Between Much Ado and Trust Me, there are a zillion Clark Gregg interviews floating around, and he keeps getting asked about Marvel's Agents of Blah Blah, so I'mma keep linking 'em. Plus, a spoiler possibly revealing how Agent Coulson is getting resurrected.
* Joss Whedon is also talking a lot about The. Show. With. All. The. Periods. Oh, and Avengers 2, of course.
* Texts From Superheroes. What will the internet think of next?
* Another article examining the problems with Doctor Who. Having never seen Classic Who, I can't say if it was better or not, but both RTD and Moffat would benefit from having some other people involved in the process. Moffat was at his best when he was just a writer in the RTD seasons. Particularly when it comes to the season-long arcs, it'd be nice if there were a writing staff who'd say, "Dude, this makes no fucking sense."
* Here's a synopsis of Neil Gaiman's second Doctor Who episode.
* I did not know that Daniel Gillies was an indie film director, but OMG the Jesus beard is hilarious. (Also, I had no idea he was married to Rachael Leigh Cook.)
* The vampirism-as-a-viral-epidemic book trilogy The Strain is getting turned into a TV series.
* In 2013-14 TV season news, Parenthood was renewed for a fifth season. No one should be surprised that The Originals was picked up for a full season. Meanwhile, TV shows on the bubble and their chances of returning (already slightly out of date, as Parenthood is included in the list).
* A My So-Called Life reunion without Claire Danes is not a My So-Called Life reunion.
* Matt Weiner talks to NPR about Mad Men.
* Johnny Depp as the Baker in the Into the Woods movie? THERE IS NOT ENOUGH "NO" IN THE UNIVERSE.
