  On Tuesday, The CW’s Jane the Virgin, Showtime’s Shameless and Fox’s Glee — all considered “dramas” under a recent rules change that defined comedies as programs 30 minutes or less — were granted comedy eligibility via an appeals process. OITNB‘s request for a waiver, however, was denied.

  10:02 - Reign - Boss Talks About Francis -"Even Young Kings Do Not Live Forever"
  
  In an exclusive statement from executive producer Laurie McCarthy, EW learned more about what this means for Mary’s husband. “Francis falling ill in tonight’s episode, in very much the way we, and those in his life, have feared, reminds our viewers as well as our characters that young men, even young kings, do not live forever. The real Francis died young, and while we take historical liberties, we adhere to the major signposts of Mary Queen of Scots’ life,” McCarthy wrote. “Moreover, the foreshadowing of Francis’s eventual but untimely death has been woven into our story from the outset.”
  
  However, looking at the immediate future, Francis’ condition will most affect the women who love him, his mother and wife. (And, of course, the man who loves his wife.) “At this point in time, this reminder of what Nostradamus prophesied, this hint of death, of things to come, lights a fire under our characters—Mary, his painfully estranged wife, and his mother, Catherine de Medici, foremost among them,” McCarthy wrote, before adding, “It also offers his rival, Condé, the man who is currently his wife’s lover, a taste of what life could be, if only the King of France were no longer in the picture.”

  09:17 - MOVIES: Robin Hood: Origins - Picked Up By Lionsgate
  
  Just how many merry men can Hollywood hold? Yet another, courtesy of Lionsgate. Robin Hood: Origins, the Joby Harold script is finding a home at the studio which is in negotiations to acquire it now. RH: Origins, as my colleague Mike Fleming wrote about previously, is one of many Robin Hood-based projects at various studios, albeit the Harold take is said to be an edgier take at the fabled do-gooder who stole from the rich and gave to the poor.

About The SpoilerTV Daily Newsreel

Every day 100's of items are submitted to us and we don't always have the time to make separate posts for the news and/or there is so much that it would quickly push all other items off the homepage.

So a result we've come up with the idea of the Newsreel, which will feature smaller shows and news items as they happen.

There will be a new Newsreel each day, and as news is added we will update the post and and push it back to the top of the site so that you can see that new items have been added. A tweet of the item will also be sent to our @SpoilerTV account.

New Items will be listed at the top of the article.

This will allow us to provide more news on more shows in a much more timely fashion
