Netflix is hinting at a little more Crazy Eyes while we all wait desperately for Season 2; NPH remains the best at everything ever (except hosting the Emmys, but neither here nor there); the BBC is now taking on bad reality TV fare; the Wikileaks movie had nowhere near the impact of actual Wikileaks.

In a speech at the GigaOm Mobilize Conference, Netflix's VP of Product Innovation (best job title, ever) Todd Yellin revealed that Netflix is on the verge of releasing DVD-like extras for its popular series House of Cards and Orange Is The New Black. I've got a fever and the only cure is more Crazy Eyes. [Slashfilm]
Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka once again have shamed the world by being better than everyone at everything: this time, family Halloween costumes. As if it didn't make you feel lazy enough, NPH warns that there's something even better coming up in 10 days on actual Halloween. [Instagram]
Taking a page from America's bad TV playbook, the BBC will now be releasing a reality competition about gymnasts...Let's Get Ready To Tumble. I can't. This is a thing. That exists. The BBC was once known for its quality programming. [THR]
Wikileaks bombed this weekend, though probably not for the reason Julian Assange thought (the public wanting the truth, not a film, as well as his own outcry). More likely because the marketing for the film was truly awful and nonsensical. Oh well. [THR]

I only read the headline and then my brain stopped functioning a little bit.

Her head needs to settle on a spot and stay there so that her hand can catch up.

the downfall of watching every episode in 2 days :( they gave us too much power.

I watched two episodes a night. Sometimes even three. I cannot be trusted. This instant gratification stuff is BAD.

Could they get rid of College Girl and Seventies Show Girl? Then it would be perfect.

College is the reason for the show (real life Piper's book about her prison experience) so she's not going anywhere. However, all reports say Laura Prepon will exit the show during season 2.

Can she take Jason Biggs with her?

spookburner Asymm 10/22/13 03:02AM

Agreed, all 3 of them can go.

I'd chalk it up to poor timing. People might've been more inclined to sit in a theater with crossed arms & shaking heads while watching Assange delude himself into believing he is the most important man who ever lived in early spring. This is the time of the year where people are more interested in WiccaLeaks starring Jessica Lange.

I was just wondering last night why they didn't realize it in the summer. Then, I'll watch any megalomaniac for the AC and popcorn.

True that. I was just last night wondering why they didn't realize it in the summer. Then I'll watch any megalomaniac for the AC and popcorn.
