Am hoping they use the same actor who was in booster for the booster gold series.

eric martsolf. also one reason why justin hartley is not green arrow in arrow is that he played in ac in the aquaman pilot which did not get picked up. then he was casted for oliver queen/green arrow in smallvile.

i think warner bros should do some of the dc characters as tv where marvel dont do. the only dc characters that worked as films are batman and superman. green lantern was good but not great.

one show from the states if it does come over that i recommend highly is aj abrams person of interest. the writing, acting, the secruity cam visuals and production values are excellant.
Supernatural Formally Picked Up For Season 8 Smile
the munsters are being rebooted by nbc. filming starts this summer. eddie izzard is playing grandpa munster. the series is called mockingbird lane, the address for the house where they live.
the vampire diaries has been renewed for a 4th season.

if nikita is not renewed its time slot could be taken by arrow. it looks like awake, alcatraz and the secret circle face cancellation.

supernatural needs to be finished soon.
Spoiler: Show

3rd (or 4th) time the charm for J.J. Abrams. I havent found a suitable "Lost" replacement yet. Couldnt really get into Alcatraz and seeing how its facing a possible cancellation im glad I didnt. The premise sounds interesting thats for sure.
alcatraz might be cancelled Sad ive really enjoyed it
the only issue with alcatraz is the actress, who plays the young blonde cop, is not great and the only saving grace was the concept and sam neil. jj abrams is also behind person of interest which is excellant. its about 2 men, one invented a machine to predict the next terrorist attack but it also kicks out social security numbers, the other is an ex-cia agent that investigates whether the person is a victim or criminal. it has not been picked up over here yet but go watchseries.eu and will find the links for it. fringe is renewed for a fifth and final season.

there a few new shows that could be scrapped after season. there are alot on the bubble and it all depends on the channel liking the programme for what it is or chasing the demographic ratings. prime example right now is body of proof excellant viewing figures but poor demographic ratings where as a reality show on the same channel has very poor viewing figures but great demographic ratings. there some shows that are always on the bubble for each season, nikita (maggie q) is one for the last 2 seasons seems to be on the verge of getting cancelled then at the end gets renewed.
