It's a two-fer for 'Veep' star Julia Louis-Dreyfus! Following her win for the same award in 2012, the former 'Seinfeld' star has taken home the 2013 Emmy for Outstanding Leading Actress in a Comedy Series, winning for her role as Vice President Selina Meyer of HBO’s ‘Veep.’
The announcements that AMC had decided to re-cancel 'The Killing,' spinoff 'Breaking Bad' into a 'Better Call Saul' prequel and add a 'Walking Dead' companion series spinoff for 2015 had us wondering if 'Mad Men' would be the next target to fill the rapidly-expanding holes in AMC's lineup, and it seems we were right.

Very soon, our long national nightmare will be over as 'Parks and Recreation' returns for season 6 with hour-long September 26 premiere "London," the title of which sells itself.

Familiar, if sad news today for fans of AMC's rain-soaked murder-mystery drama 'The Killing,' as it seems Holder and Linden will once again turn in their badges.

'Glee' and 'American Horror Story' creator Ryan Murphy already had our attention with the announcement of upcoming HBO sexuality drama 'Open,' let alone after stars like Scott Speedman, Wes Bentley and 'Fringe''s Anna Torv joined the ranks.

Just when you thought 'SNL' couldn't have put that Lindsay Lohan rumor to bed any harder, the first three episodes of the 2013-14 season will blow the lid off '30 Rock' altogether. Alumni Tina Fey will host the September 28 'SNL' premiere, with the weeks that follow to include the likes of twerqueen Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, and even a returning Katy Perry!
Much like the final episodes of 'Breaking Bad,' AMC continues to keep a tight lid on 'The Walking Dead' season 4, even with the new promos.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's success in hosting the 2013 Golden Globes this past January led to some fairly reaching rumors that the two would next be tapped for the Oscars, but at least one future ceremony has proven a no-brainer for the comedic duo.
