THE FOLLOWING Bosses on a Ryan Hardy-Centric Season 3, Michael Ealy’s New Big Bad, and More

We’re just three weeks away from the two-hour season premiere of THE FOLLOWING, and things are set to be a bit different when the show returns.

First of all, the Joe Carroll chapter of the series is over. While Carroll made it out alive (and James Purefoy’s Carroll will appear on the show)  — thanks to an alternate ending not making the final cut —  the focus of the show will shift more fully to Kevin Bacon’s Ryan Hardy. (And Ryan will have to contend with a new baddie this season.)

There’s also been a behind-the-scenes transition in showrunners, as THE FOLLOWING creator Kevin Williamson has handed over showrunner duties to a trio of show vets: writers/executive producers Brett Mahoney and Alexi Hawley, as well as director/executive producer Marcos Siega. (Williamson has been focused on CBS’ STALKER.)

GMMR TV Awards: The Winners Revealed!

After weeks of nominations and voting, you have determined who should take home the fourth annual Give Me My Remote TV Awards!

Before we get to the winners, I want thank everyone who participated in our annual contest.

Which Newly Canceled Shows Are You Going to Miss the Most?

As we say goodbye to the 2013-2014 television season (and look ahead to the 2014-2015 season), there is the unfortunate fact that as per usual we had to say goodbye to a lot of shows. Some were planned (BREAKING BAD, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, etc.), and others…not so much.

Television is kind of a crazy medium to get invested in. For (most) books and movies, there’s a set beginning, middle, and end for each story, so even if only five people actually view it, the full story is still there. Not so much in TV. Even long-running shows can be canceled at the drop of a hat, and the number of series that get to end things wholly on their own terms still is minimal.

On today’s conference call with reporters, Kevin Reilly, Chairman, Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company (FOX), was asked particularly about the decision to cancel ALMOST HUMAN and SURVIVING JACK, whose ratings were comparable (or better) than shows that were picked up. This is what Reilly said:
