TVGuide is reporting that sTerminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles star Brian Austin Green is heading over to Smallville. Green recently made the news when he was offered and turned down a role on The CW’s One Tree Hill, after his new series Body Politic was left off the fall schedule.

Sounds like he made the right move, because now he’s taking on the juicy role of Metallo in Smallville’s upcoming season. Click here to read the full story at TVGuide.com.

Dollhouse, Fringe Get Premiere Dates

Fox has announced the premiere dates for their fall shows including Fringe and Dollhouse. Fringe is looking good on Thursdays after Bones — even though it puts them in direct competition with Supernatural.

Dollhouse, however, keeps the Friday at 9:00 slot (which I believe will put it up against Medium on CBS) but running after an hour comedy block. Very strange programming choice but I guess its the best Fox could do given the limited amount of genre shows on the network this coming year.

Thursday, Sept. 17
8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT BONES (Season Premiere)
9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT FRINGE (Season Premiere)

Friday, Sept. 18
8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT BROTHERS (Series Premiere)
8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT ‘TIL DEATH (Season Premiere)
9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT DOLLHOUSE (Season Premiere)

The End is Near: Day One Comes to NBC

Cynthia — Mon, 04 May 2009 19:22:45 +0000

Today, at the NBC “Infronts,” the network confirmed that Day One will be on their fall schedule. Day One is a survival story that begins after a “global catastrophe” decimates the world’s infrastructures. Like the cult favorite Jericho, the show revolves around a mixed bag of survivors, in this case the residents of an apartment building in Van Nuys, California, who must band together in order to stay alive.

There are some big guns behind the series, namely executive producer/writer Jesse Alexander (”Heroes,” “Lost,” “Alias”) and director Alex Graves (”Fringe,” “Journeyman”). The cast if full of young faces you’ve seen but probably can’t put a name to including Adam Campbell (”Harper’s Island”), Catherine Dent (”Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”), Julie Gonzalo (”Eli Stone”), David Lyons (”ER”), Derek Mio (”Greek”), Carly Pope (”24″), Thekla Reuten (”Sleeper Cell”) and Addison Timlin (”Cashmere Mafia”).

They say it’s a story of hope, about how heroes are born every day — looters and price gougers are also born every day, so we’ll just have to see how this goes.
