yea it was really well done

simons new orleans show is a go pilot, so that has a chance to get made into a series. i have to imagine he'll use about 60% of the wire cast in this new show.

Big plans for the Philadelphia crew.
by Eric Goldman
July 15, 2008 - Paddy's Irish Pub isn't closing anytime soon. This morning at the Television Critics Association press tour FX's President John Landgraf announced that It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been ordered for an additional 39 episodes.

That's on top of the 13 episode fourth season now in production, meaning that there will be at least 52 more episodes of Sunny coming. Presumably those 39 episodes will be broken up over at least two seasons, meaning fans can expect the show to go at least until Season 6.

Landgraf noted that the entire cast is committed to the show through those 52 episodes, with series creators Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day continuing on as both executive producers and series regulars and Kaitlin Olson and Danny DeVito remaining series regulars.

only 13 episodes this season?  douches

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

They should have 20 episodes every season, and there should be a new season every week.

[SunMo]

they should have to put on a new episode from now until the end of time

[Wingspan]

If they did that, the chance that it would rain increases dramatically.

[SunMo]

fair point

[Diomedes]

they should go back to writing it themselves

For anyone that was ever a fan....'Scare Tactics' is back on!

LOS ANGELES -- William Petersen is leaving "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," a move that might have fans of his brainy crimebuster Gil Grissom screaming bloody murder.

Petersen has agreed to return for occasional guest appearances and will remain a "CSI" executive producer but his run as an original cast member will end this coming season, executive producers Carol Mendelsohn and Naren Shankar said Tuesday.

The air date for his final episode, the season's 10th, has yet to be determined but probably will be at the beginning of 2009, the producers said. The series debuted in fall 2000.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

That show is deader than Warrick Brown without Gil Grissom.

Amy Poehler will star in the Office spinoff.

I like it.

Amy Poehler will star in the Office spinoff.

I like it.

Who else (from The Office) is in the spin-off?  I imagine Andy?
