CBS’ latest book-to-summer series adaption is the James Patterson novel, ZOO, but while the premise remains the same — worldwide, animals turn against humans, and a team of scientists attempt to figure out how to stop it — things will deviate from the source material.
“It’s going to change a lot from the book, which is excellent,” Patterson told reporters during a panel. (Co-showrunner Jeff Pinkner also shared that there’s a five-season plan for the show.)
Though the premiere is over a month away, CBS released a sneak peek at what to expect from the first couple of episodes. Check it out…

BONES Recap: ‘The Murder in the Middle East’

Filed under Bones
Hello BONES fans! I really liked this episode, “The Murder in the Middle East.” How about you? I’m not saying every moment made me happy of course, but I think in some episodes (and some entire episodes) there can be moments of fluff or unnecessary parts. This episode didn’t waste a second or minute and was strong throughout. Plus, one of Aubrey’s lines is now one of my all time favorite BONES lines ever! For this, and more—read on! Read more
WAYWARD PINES: Chad Hodge Teases ‘Get Ready for the Ride of Your Life’
May 14, 2015 by Marisa Roffman
Filed under #1 featured, Wayward Pines
Fox is debuting WAYWARD PINES — the network’s newest event series — tonight, and the twisted drama (based off the Blake Crouch trilogy) is deliciously fun.
The show follows a Secret Service agent, Ethan Burke (played by Matt Dillion), who ends up in Wayward Pines while trying to track down a couple of missing agents. (One of whom is his ex-lover/former partner.) Unfortunately for him, once he arrives, he finds out he can’t actually leave the town…and the residents have to obey some very specific rules while they’re staying there.
While the series sets up a fair amount of questions about what’s going on, WAYWARD PINES also pays off with answers well before the ten-episode arc ends…and they’re not the sci-fi-esque answers you might expect.
“Everything adds up,” WAYWARD PINES showrunner Chad Hodge shared of the eventual reveal, which remains the same as what played out in the book series. “And it’s so mind-blowing, and it’s actually something that could happen. It’s very grounded. There’s a huge payoff, and absolutely worth it.”
I spoke with Hodge about getting involved with the WAYWARD PINES world, the long road to air, and more… Read more
