Not a Renewal but a New Series pickup! This is from a studio that pouts out some pretty good Television!

‘Van Helsing’ Series Picked Up By Syfy

Van Helsing, a 13-episode sci-fi series from Nomadic Pictures (Fargo, Hell On Wheels), has been acquired by Syfy. Neil LaBute serves as writer/showrunner on the drama, a new take on the Dracula myth.


Van Helsing, which begins production in January 2016 in Vancouver, BC for a fall 2016 premiere, centers on Vanessa Helsing, the daughter of famous vampire hunter and Dracula nemesis Abraham Van Helsing. She is resurrected five years in the future to find out that vampires have taken over the world and that she possesses unique power over them. She is humanity’s last hope to lead an offensive to take back what has been lost.

“Van Helsing represents a new mythology in sci-fi by challenging traditional vampire rules,” said Chad Oakes, Co-Chairman of Calgary-based Nomadic Pictures. “The series is unique in exploring a world completely dominated by vampires, while the human characters have to learn the importance of working together to ensure their survival.”

Added Chris Regina, SVP, Program Strategy, Syfy,“Van Helsing reimagines a classic story in a compelling new way, featuring a bold and complex heroine.”

Van Helsing is produced by Nomadic Pictures. Executive Producers are Chad Oakes & Mike Frislev from Nomadic Pictures, LaBute, Simon Barry (Continuum), Evan Tyler (Industry Works), Dave Brown (Echo Lake Entertainment) as well as Daniel March (Dynamic). Nomadic Pictures will distribute the series within Canada, Fallout Asylum and Dynamic Television will distribute the series (initial window) in the United States and Dynamic Television will distribute the series throughout the rest of the world.

‘Blindspot’ Renewed For Second Season By NBC

While some of the new fall series are yet to learn their fate for the remainder of their first seasons, NBC’s breakout new drama Blindspot — the first to get backup scripts and full-season freshman order — has received a very early second season renewal. The series, starring Sullivan Stapleton and Jaimie Alexander, ranks as the No.1 new fall series among adults 18-49.

‘Fargo’ Gets Season 3 Greenlight On FX


A little more than halfway through the second run of FX’s limited series Fargo, the cable net has ordered a third season. Season 1 of the drama from creator Noah Hawley based on the Coen brothers’ 1996 movie won three Emmy Awards including Outstanding Miniseries, and the current sophomore season has been widely praised by critics. No cast or premiere date for Season 3 was announced, but executive producers Hawley, Warren Littlefield, Joel & Ethan Coen, and John Cameron will return.

The Blacklist has been renewed for a 4th Season by NBC!! :D
Click to expand...


The Blacklist now joins Blindspot, which NBC renewed for a second season last month. Both shows have been renewed a bit early, but considering the continuing popularity of the James Spader drama and Blindspot's high ratings, it's a logical move for the network.

In fact, Blindspot has now eclipsed The Blacklist as NBC's top drama. That said, the show continues to perform quite well for the network, with a 3.0 rating among adults and a viewer base of 11.9 million.

Now this is a bit of a surprise!

FOX has renewed M. Night Shyamalan's Wayward Pines for a Second Season!

Rumor has it that since this was filmed in 2013 & early 2014 that a lot of the casts contracts have expired so season 2 may look a lot different than the first season!

Really glad to hear about The Librarians!

TNT has Renewed the The Librarians, Major Crimes & Murder In The First

TNT today has officially renewed adventure drama The Librarians and serialized crime drama Murder In The First each for third seasons and crime procedural Major Crimes for fifth. The Librarians, which is in the midst of its second season, has been picked up for 13 episodes. Major Crimes, also currently airing, will return with more episodes to round out its fourth season in February 2016. The Closer spinoff, as well as Murder In The First, have been picked up for 10 episodes to air in summer 2016.

The Librarians, Murder In the First and Major Crimes join previously renewed Rizzoli & Isles and The Last Ship. They will be joined in 2016 by recently picked up new drama series, Good Behavior and Animal Kingdom as well as the straight-to-series The Alienist as TNT is undergoing a brand makeover with edgier fare.

So I assume that means The Muppets won't be coming back.

Not necessarily it was unusual for a network to renew this many shows this early most wait until early May.

Some other shows that weren't apart of these early renewals along with The Muppets were (one of my favorites) Last Man Standing, Dr. Ken, Galavant, Marvel's Agent Carter, Nashville and Castle.

The holdup in the renewal on Castle is a new contract with Nathan Fillion!

With a new 2-year contract for series star & EP Mark Harmon.

CBS has given a 2-year renewal to hit show NCIS meaning the show will be on for at least 15 Seasons!


NCIS debuted in the fall of 2003 after a 2-episode backdoor Pilot that spring during the eighth Season of the hit series JAG. JAG ran for 10 Seasons, 9 of them on CBS after its debut season was cancelled with one episode remaining on its schedule in the Spring of 1996 by NBC. CBS picked up the series for a 15 episode 2nd season in the spring of 1997 and the rest is history.

NCIS has since spun off two other series NCIS: Los Angeles currently in its 7th Season and NCIS: New Orleans now in its 2nd season.
