  • Jersey Shore Won’t Get Tax Credit

    The polarizing reality show Jersey Shore will not receive a tax break for filming in the state; the show’s producer 495 Productions will not receive $420,000 — and thank god.

    Dean Winchester himself, Jensen Ackles walked on stage while the audience in Hall H cheered wildly. He soaked it in as only Ackles could, then in a jerk-like demeanor told the crowd, “Alright, shut up!” And of course the audience quieted down, but not after laughing at Ackles’ playfulness.

  • Surprising Decision on House

    Fox’s series House, starring Hugh Laurie, is renewed for an eighth season. The surprising part? Lisa Edelstein, who portrays Dr. Cuddy; House’s boss, ex-girlfriend and essentially an antagonist (though our “hero” House is more like the antagonist) will not return for the new season.
