If there’s one thing this election season has been lacking, it’s screen time devoted to the megalomaniacal ranting of a tiresome one-time television character. Thankfully, this morning Bloomberg News published an interview with the actor Jeff Daniels in which he reprises his character Will McAvoy from the deceased HBO broadcast news drama The Newsroom.

In September, we showed you the first shot of a reunited Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels on the set of Dumb and Dumber To. Now, we have the first still image from the actual movie.

It's officially official: Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are back as Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne in the Farrelly brothers' Dumb and Dumber To.

Aaron Sorkin, the creator of the show everyone but Dan Rather hates, defended The Newsroom tonight at a Television Critics Association panel with Jeff Daniels. Those reports that he fired everyone on his writing staff except his ex-girlfriend? Untrue, says Sorkin.

Here is the trailer for Aaron Sorkin's new HBO series The Newsroom, set to premier June 24. What's it about? Well basically, it's a show about the evils of the internet created by someone who believes the internet is evil. It's also about the news, the current state of our country, politics, celeb culture, web culture, the right, the left, the perils of capitalism, and how girls can make you act cuh-razy.

Your favorite television show is delayed, I'm afraid. Indefinitely. Also today: Total Recall casting continues, as does TV pilot casting. Plus, The Office plans big fireworks for its finale.
