Morning Brew – Friday, Dec. 23: Warner Brothers benches its “Buffy” remake, Lady Gaga has a Christmas present for you
Morning, Brewbies! Lady Gaga knows what she’s getting you for Christmas!
Warner Brothers also knows what they’re getting you for Christmas: An indefinite hiatus on their most terrible idea ever — the Joss Whedon-less Buffy. According to the LA Times Hero Complex blog:
Two sources close to the project say that the script submitted this past summer by writer Whit Anderson fell far short of expectations and, in the end, was rejected completely. […] As for the future of “Buffy”? A new writer is being sought but the entire endeavor may have lost some steam. There also might be some healthy fear among the producers who witnessed a spasm of fan criticism when the project was first publicized.
Thanks, Santa!
Fox has released some new promo images from “Yes/No,” which will air on January 17. The images feature kind of girl/boy collaborations that look a lot like Grease and our first look at the guest appearance by Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Nene Leakes.
New York Magazine‘s Vulture blog posted some super cute cartoon version of the cast of Parks and Recreation. Here’s Leslie Knope, the greatest feminist of our time. Click through to see the rest of the characters. Ron Swanson is my favorite one.
