Well crap.  I hate to say that this news doesn’t surprise me, but it doesn’t.  Word came down yesterday that Fox has officially cancelled the J.J. Abrams produced Alcatraz.  The bad news was reported by Deadline, who also stated that Fox decided to give Touch a second season.  Also on the chopping block for the network is their new series The Finder, which airs right before Fringe.

Fox also gave the order to pick up three new comedies, and two dramas.  I have a love hate relationship with television comedies.  If they are more sitcom-y, forget it.  I absolutely detest laugh tracks and refuse to watch them.  If the comedies are more like New Girl or Raising Hope, then I’m all over it.  As for the dramas, I getting a bit tired of the medical / police procedurals and that’s exactly what these new shows sounds like.

Now that the holidays are but a memory, it’s time to get back to business.  TV business that is.  Television pretty much comes to a grinding halt during the festive season and aside from the holiday specials, we’re forced to watch other things.  Which isn’t really a bad thing per se, but it makes for difficult decision-making.  Should I stream this show I’ve been sitting on for ages or should I watch that movie.  You get the idea.

Since there is a whole lot of TV coming back in the following weeks, I’ve done a bit of a round-up.  Below is a listing of shows (not every single one) returning from their winter break, and shows that are just starting.  Everything is listed by premier date to make it easy.

There wasn’t a whole lot to work with this week so this one is short and sweet.  There were loads of clips released for several upcoming films, but I try to stay away from those.  Unless it’s a really really good one that I just can’t stay away from, but there weren’t any of those this week.  Kill some time with this week’s trailers.

The final two episodes of the great web series The Confession are up today.  I’ve really enjoyed this web series and wish it would continue, but all good things must come to an end.

There’s a new episode of The Confession up today.  This marks the sixth episode which means there’s only four left.  Oh that just makes me so sad!  This weeks episode is a tad longer clocking in at just over six minutes and it’s all basically set in the confession booth.  We don’t get too much back story, but we find out that our assassin actually has a shred of compassion.

I tell ya, the ONLY good thing about Mondays currently is that we get new episodes of The Confession.  I wrote about this web series last week when it debuted so go back and catch up if you need to.  While you’re doing that I’ll just ramble a little bit.

Finally!  The Confession has finally launched and not only did they give us the first episode, the gave us three!  I’ve been patiently waiting for this web series to launch since I first heard about several months ago.  You see, I have a real soft spot for Kiefer Sutherland.  I can’t help it.  Eight years of 24 will do that to a girl.  Then come to find out John Hurt was going to be in it too and I was sold.

Once again, I’m late to the party.  The web series party that is.  I’ve seen loads of stuff on Twitter, and the web regarding different web series and for some reason I never paid much attention.  But last week I came across one that I started to watch and I went through almost the whole first season in one sitting.
