'Bitten' Hasn't Lost Its Bite: Why A Smart Network Should Add This Outstanding Paranormal Drama To Its Lineup
When Bitten was cancelled in December 2015, fans weren't ready for the end, especially since this show had barely begun. With only 33 episodes aired, Bitten still has a lot of bite left. There are a vast array of stories left to be told, and this is one program that's only going to get stronger, especially if given the opportunity to evolve. And dedicated Bitten fans will follow the show to the next fortunate network that believes in second chances.

There are honestly a ton of shows that I've never watched, mostly because I'm just not interested in them, yet others I've always wanted to watch but either never found the time or actually forced myself to.

My First Time Being a TV Extra on 'The Crown'
Trying new things and getting out of your "comfort zone" is something everyone talks about but rarely actually does. Cut back to mid-2015 and I was on the look out for something to do that would dip my toe in the film world and break my cycle of procrastination. I've been a writing and directing my own short-films since my teens and am constantly working on my feature film debut script (2017s the year baby!). However, I wanted to cut through all this and actually get onto a film set but wasn't sure how I could achieve it. It was then that I came across an advert on Facebook for "background extras" for a #perioddrama called #TheCrown filming near where I lived. After emailing my details I soon received a reply and the choice was made, I was going to be in a TV show....oh boy!

Why Jeffrey Dean Morgan Will Make the Perfect Negan on The 'Walking Dead'
Today is my birthday, and what a great present it was to wake up to the news that one of my new favorite shows, The Walking Dead, has made a casting announcement regarding one of my favorite actors. It was announced last night that Jeffrey Dean Morgan had been cast as the sociopathic character Negan, who is the feared leader of a group of survivors called the Saviors. This group of survivors offer protection from the zombie horde, but at a cost of supplies from the communities they offer to protect. Negan is fierce and unrelenting when it comes to getting his point conveyed, although at times he has also shown reasonable mercy if he believes that he can find usefulness in those that he spares.

Five Day TV Challenge: A Supernatural Binge
I'm not usually the type to take an overwhelming amount of time watching every episode from a show, normally I'll take a couple hours here and there and catch up on Netflix or buy a season on DVD. Binging on TV isn't something that I can normally do after you get married and have kids; your time tends to be stretched much thinner at that point, so in the last 5 years I've always been playing catch-up on many shows. Sometimes I'm even a couple seasons behind of shows, Doctor Who being a prime example. I started watching Christopher Eccleston portraying the Doctor while Matt Smith was the current Doctor. So a normal 'binge' of a show tends to be dependent on how long my 3 year old son happens to nap.

3 Vampire Series That Could Have Been Successful
Vampires, for the most part, have always been successful on the small screen (as well as on the silver screen). In most recent years, we've had True Blood, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, and Penny Dreadful just to name a few. Prior to that, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Forever Knight, and even Dark Shadows proved that no matter what decade we were living in, viewers were interested in vampires. Maybe that's why we found the premature cancellation of three exciting vampire shows disappointing. We knew that, given a chance, these three programs could have grown into phenomenons.

4 TV Couples That Never Got Their Happily Ever After
All television shows have their angst, just as most of them have romance that creates OTPs (one true pairings). These are couples that viewers root for, laugh with, cry with, and hold their breaths hoping for a happily ever after. Some of those fortunate fictional couples (and fans) get those. Others are not so lucky.
