Welcome to Channel Surfing, the IGN TV podcast. This is where the staff of IGN TV (and occasional guests) lends their print-ready voices to the world of podcasting!
Hello, those who enjoy the surfing of the chat, Eric and Matt are back, with another busy week of TV news for ya. We've been teased for years with the possibility of a movie, but now it sounds like Arrested Development is actually coming back to TV? Please let this not be some elaborate hoax! Meanwhile, it looked like The Simpsons could be coming to an end due to contract negotiations… but then it didn't. Plus, we discuss Dexter having another star/contract squabble.
We began to see our first cancellations of the new season this week, and we discuss the end of The Playboy Club, Free Agents and H8R… none of which will be particularly missed. However, it was much better news for 2 Broke Girls, Whitney and Up All Night, which got full season orders. But wait, there's more! We've got the possibility of a Reno 911! revival, a new Batman animated series -- Beware The Batman -- for the fans to freak out about, the Coen Bros. developing their first TV series (Harve Karbo), a Snoop Dogg sitcom and the mega-geek team-up of Jon Favreau, Seth Green, Roberto Orci and Michael Dougherty for ABC's Ex-Comm. And, you know… other stuff too!
