Sleepy Hollow (Fox, Mondays, 9/8C) returns this week with a new episode guest-starring Fringe’s John Noble.

Neon Alley: What It’s About; Where It’s Going! Eclipse Talks With Kevin Kleinrock, Neon Alley Program Director!
Neon Alley, the first 24-7 anime channel to run English-dubbed anime, has just celebrated its first anniversary.

Simpsons ShowrunnerTalks 25th Season; Homeland Parody!
The Simpsons (Fox, Sundays 8/7C) is the most successful animated half hour in TV history.

The Blacklist Star Megan Boone and Executive Producer John Eisendrath Dish On The Fall’s Best New Drama!
NBC’s The Blacklist (Mondays, 10/9C) is, to my mind, the fall’s best new drama. The titular blacklist is a list of criminals that no one has caught because no one has ever known about them. Criminal mastermind Raymond ‘Red’ Reddington turns himself in to the FBI and claims he can help bring them down on […]

Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Comedy Is Hard! (Just Ask The Show’s Creators and Star…)
Fox’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine (Tuesdays, 8:30/7:30C) is the best of the fall’s new half-hour comedies. It’s a combination procedural/workplace comedy set in the Brooklyn Nine-Nine – a precinct where the best detective is an immature prankster who behaves like the class clown in high school – and the precinct’s new captain is a by-the-book hardass who […]
Why Sleepy Hollow Has No ‘Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ – Executive Producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci Talk Fox’s New Horror/Cop Show Hybrid!
Fox’s Sleepy Hollow (Mondays, 9/8C) is a show that blends Hawthorne, Rip Van Winkle and Revelations within a flexible cop show/semi-procedural format. It’s goofy, weird, scary and oddly compelling in equal measures. Executive Producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci spoke with members of the press/bloggers earlier this week to tease the series and explain how […]
