Is Everybody Hates Chris Done?

Looks like its’ going to be bad news for Chris Rock’s show titled Everybody Hates Chris that is currently on the CW Network. Unless, the network decides at the last minute to change it’s mind because of a write-in campaign by fans, the show will not be renewed. The show debuted to much critical fan fare in 2005, and was nominated for several Emmys, Golden Globes and Image Awards, while taking home 5 Image Awards.

The show Everybody Hates Chris is about Chris Rock's life as 13 year old and how he thought being a teenager was going to be fun when it turns out that it wasn't what he expected it to be and it shows on how he grew up in Brooklyn, New York with his younger brother and sister and his strict, hard-working parents. The show stars Tyler James Williams, Terry Crews, Tequan Richmond, Tichina Arnold and Imani Hakim.

Comedy Jumps On Gospel Music Channel

A few weeks ago we reported that comedian Jonathan Slocumb was about to drop his new clean comedy show on BET J titled Ha! Stand-up for Clean Comedy. Well, it seems that since the BET network is now launching a gospel comedy version titled BET Gospel Comic View - A Time to Laugh, (and it will be hosted by Gospel singer Vickie Winans) it seems there is no room for the new Jonathan Slocumb show. So, this means that the show had to move, and it did to the Gospel Music Channel. The new comedy show will debut on March 7th. The new family friendly series will feature stand-up comics, sketches, and bits from the clean comedy scene. Ha! will be hosted by Slocumb, who frequently opens for Bill Cosby. So far, we hear the line-up will feature comedians Lisa Alvarado, Michael Joiner, Leighann Lord, Horace “HB” Sanders, Angel Gaines, Taylor Mason, Ron G.,and Ron Baker Jr. Ha! will debut as a special on Sat. March 7 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT and will then be seen as shorts interspersed throughout the GMC schedule.

Ghostbusters 3 Moving Closer To A Reality

After speaking with our friends and a couple of other sources we have, we hear that Dan Aykroyd confirmed that Ghostbusters 3 is moving forward as we reported several weeks ago. No word yet on the script, but Aykroyd did say the script is in the final stages, and the producers have been in serious discussions to either re-launch the franchise or to tell another story that would include all of the original cast members. Also, the Producers face another challenge of trying to get everyone back on board for the film. The original cast starred Aykroyd with Bill Murray, Sigourney Weaver, Harold Ramis, Rick Moranis and Ernie Hudson.

The Film Push Changes It's Name

We just discovered more news from the Lee Daniels-directed film titled Push. It seems that the film is going to have a name change from its current title and be renamed Precious, after the film's lead character. Currently the film is trying to be distinguished from the current Dakota Fanning and Djimon Hounsou film of the same name.

As we told you a couple of weeks ago Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry will team up to help promote the film through their respective film companies, Harpo Films and 34th Street Films. The film became only the third film in Sundance Film Festival history to win the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Awards in the U.S. Dramatic Competition last month.

The film stars comedian Mo’Nique, newcomer Gabourey “Gabby” Sidibe, Paula Patton, Mariah Carey and Lenny Kravitz.
