DreamWorks Animation has more green in its future.
The studio announced on Tuesday that the beloved franchise “Shrek” is coming back to theaters with a fifth installment. What’s more, “Shrek 5” has planted its flag on a date two years hence—July 1, 2026, to be precise. The studio made its declaration via social media, deploying Smash Mouth’s “All Star” and its earworm herald of “someBODY once told me.” An ogre-ifi-ed numeral 5 then did a little dance.

Confirmed for the voices are Mike Myers, the titular gassy ogre with a pure heart, Cameron Diaz as his beloved Princess Fiona, and Eddie Murphy as Donkey, the wisecracking donkey. It is unclear if Antonio Banderas, who voices Puss in Boots, will make an appearance.

While DreamWorks Animation and Universal Pictures make their minds up as to whether we’ll see a fifth adventure in the Shrek series of movies, the first four films are now being bundled together on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray.

It's easy to overlook just how big the "Shrek" movies are given that they are mostly a giant meme factory and a source for a controversial Scottish accent. This is a franchise that changed animation and showed DreamWorks Animation was a powerhouse that could compete with Disney and Pixar. It competed for the Palme d'Or at Cannes, the first animated film in almost 50 years to do so. It won the first Oscar for Best Animated Feature and helped cement the rise of computer animation. There is a reason this is the first animated movie of the 21st century to be selected for preservation in the National Film Registry.
Since then, "Shrek" has grown into a giant franchise, with spin-offs, musicals, and much more ... including a very popular themed rave and even custom Crocs. This is why it might be tough for casual movie watchers to keep track of which movies to watch,...

Eddie Murphy is ready to make waffles once again, as he has expressed interest in reprising his role as Donkey in the Shrek franchise.
Eddie Murphy discussed bringing back Donkey to Etalk, saying, “I’d absolutely be open if they ever came with another Shrek, I’d do it in two seconds. I love Donkey.” And why not? After all, as Murphy points out, they have continued the franchise via the character of Puss in Boots…although Murphy thinks the series should have focused on his beloved ass. “You know, they did Puss in Boots movies. I was like, They should have did a Donkey movie. Donkey is funnier than Puss in Boots. I mean, I love Puss in Boots, but he ain’t funny as the Donkey.”
But it’s not entirely up to Eddie Murphy, who says the ball is in Dreamworks’ court if they want to get Donkey and Shrek back together.

Scream Queens is not long for this world. The Fox series was one of the more surprising renewals last year, so losing more viewers can not be a good sign.
Fox: Scream Queens (1.4 million/0.5 rating) ended flat out of encores of Ice Age Mammoth Christmas (2.6 million/0.8 rating) and New Girl (1.5 million/0.5 rating).
NBC: Michael Buble Sings & Swings (5.3 million/0.8 rating) and Tony Bennett celebrates 90 (6.7 million/0.8 rating) pulled in anemic ratings.
ABC: It was Toy Story That Time Forgot (3.4 million/0.8 rating), Shrek The Halls (3.7 million/1.0 rating) and The Year: 2016 (3.8 million/1.1 rating).
CBS: Encores of NCIS (9.8 million/1.0 rating) and Bull (6.2 million/0.8 rating) were on the menu for the eye network.
The CW: Terry Crews Saves Christmas (1 million/0.3 rating) could not save The CW from poor ratings, while Greatest Holiday Commercials Countdown 2016 (0.9 million/0.3 rating) fared just as badly.

Ho Ho Ho! Toss me that football, yo!
With a night mostly filled with specials, comedy, and hour-long dramas that the traditional viewing public has never tuned into, football was all anybody cared about.
And that, still, wasn't anything to crow about.
NBC managed to lose an entire ratings point from the previous week for NFL Thursday Night Football and still win the week with a hefty 3.7 for the evening and about 12 million viewers throughout.
ABC took a chance on repeats of Toy Story that Time Forgot, which remained forgotten with a 0.8 and Shrek the Halls, which did a tick better with 0.9.

'Tis the season to annoy everyone by using "'tis the season" way too many times when talking about holiday stuff. Halloween hasn't even happened yet, but the Christmas decorations are already taking over drug stores so ABC is just going ahead and announcing its 2015 holiday lineup. It's something to look forward to after the candy is gone, anyway, and since the "Toy Story 20th Anniversary Special" and "It's Your 50th Christmas, Charlie Brown" are involved, you should definitely mark your calendars.
Here's a chronological list of holiday programming highlights, via ABC:
Friday, November 27
"Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town" - In the perennial favorite created in 1970 by Rankin-Bass Productions ("Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Frosty the Snowman"), Fred Astaire narrates this timeless tale of Kris Kringle (Mickey Rooney), a young boy with an immense desire to do good things for others.

Fast National ratings for Tuesday, December 23, 2014. NBC's "One Direction: The TV Special" dominated Tuesday night among females 12-17, but failed to strike a cord in any other demographic as CBS repeats and ABC holiday specials ruled a sleepy Christmas Eve eve on Tuesday. Repeats of "NCIS," NCIS: Los Angeles" and "NCIS: New Orleans" were Tuesday's most watched shows overall, while encores of "Shrek the Halls" and "Toy Story That Time Forgot" led in the key demo for ABC. And NBC's three celebrity-driven specials all did the same weak demo number and drew under 3.7 million viewers. On to the numbers... Among adults 18-49, ABC averaged a 1.1 rating for Tuesday night, edging out the 1.0 rating for CBS in the key demographic. NBC's 0.7 key demo rating, Fox's 0.5 key demo rating and the 0.3 key demo rating for The CW trailed. Overall, though, CBS cruised with an estimated 8.95 million viewers and a 5.7 rating/10 share for Tuesday primetime.

Shrek opened ABC’s slate with 5.3 million total viewers and a 1.2 demo rating, while Toy Story did 4.7 mil/1.2 — with the animated features tying for the nightly demo win. ABC’s Year in Review special drew 5.3 mil and a 1.1.
Over on NBC, One Direction’s first-ever Stateside TV special premiered to just 3.1 mil and a 0.7 (though it gave the Peacock a 7 percent boost among female teens). Holiday special encores from Michael Buble and Kelly Clarkson...

Fast National ratings for Monday, Dec. 23, 2013
"The Sing-Off" went out on a low note Monday, recording the smallest finale in its four seasons on NBC. It might, however, still end up as the night's top show in adults 18-49.
That honor currently belongs to ABC's finale of "The Great Christmas Light Fight" and reruns of "2 Broke Girls" and "Mike & Molly" on CBS. Both of those networks, however, had local pre-emptions for the "Monday Night Football" game, so their ratings may come down in the final nationals.
The only other original show on Monday was a special "Hollywood Game Night" on NBC, which finished second in its hour in adults 18-49.
ABC currently stands at 5.05 million viewers and a 2.9 rating/5 share in households, pending updates for the NFL pre-emption. CBS (4.9 million, 3.1/5) is second, also pending updates. NBC averaged 4.6 million viewers and a 2.9/5, followed by Fox (2.15 million, 1.4/2) and The CW (979,000, 0.7/1).

ABC currently stands at 5.05 million viewers and a 2.9 rating/5 share in households, pending updates for the NFL pre-emption. CBS (4.9 million, 3.1/5) is second, also pending updates. NBC averaged 4.6 million viewers and a 2.9/5, followed by Fox (2.15 million, 1.4/2) and The CW (979,000, 0.7/1).

The Sing-Off‘s Season 4 finale was watched by 5.2 million total people and scored a 1.3 rating on Christmas Eve Eve, down sharply week-to-week (7.3 mil/2.0) and off 13 and 19 percent from its previous, circa-Nov. 2011 closer, thus hitting a series low for a finale.
Leading out of that, a holiday edition of Hollywood Game Night – in which Rachel Bilson rocked the bonus round like a boss — drew 3.5 mil and a 1.0, up 25 percent in audience and flat in the demo versus its Aug. 30 Season 1 finale. (Season 2 kicks off Monday, Jan. 20.)

Maybe you've already had your fill of holiday programming, but this is when it gets serious.
With Christmas coming at midweek this year, that still leaves several days for networks to offer signs of the season ... some of which have been shown already this year but still are hugely appropriate for viewing. And maybe even more so, the closer to the actual holiday it gets.
Zap2it has selected a sampling of some of the home-screen gifts being presented in the coming days.
"The Wizard of Oz" (Sunday, Dec. 22, TNT): It had a 3-D and IMAX retrofitting recently, but there's something comforting about going "Over the Rainbow" with the Judy Garland-starring 1939 classic at home.
"Home Alone" (Sunday, AMC): Young Kevin (Macaulay Culkin) makes things tough for thieves (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) who invade his house in this 1990 family favorite.

Garth Brooks has been playing to sold-out crowds for last four years in Las Vegas. On Friday, the country legend proved he can still draw an impressive national TV audience too.
CBS’ two-hour telecast of Garth Brooks, Live From Las Vegas delivered 8.7 million viewers and a 1.8 rating among adults 18-49.

Christmas time is here again and, once again, we’re flooded with a ton of schmaltzy Christmas episodes and specials. Now, I would never consider myself a real Grinch (furry green Grinch hat aside), but just because it’s Christmas that doesn’t mean that it’s time to make cruddy episodes of a show because you can stick your characters in some kind of holiday appropriate situation.
There are some shows that keep true to the tone of their show while celebrating Christmas in their own unique ways. The “A Very Supernatural Christmas” epsidode of “Supernatural” was, in my opinion, a brilliant example of that. The word fudging has never been so funny and the monster of the week the Winchesters found themselves battling was both horrifying and probably more fun than I should admit. It was typical dark humor mingled with heartbreak and the kind of wistfulness for...

Tuesday's ratings were up across the board over last week as the networks counted gains for the second straight night. The "Dancing With the Stars: All-Stars" finale hit a season high for ABC, and "NCIS" and "The Voice" each posted sizable increases over a week ago.
Fox's comedies were also up a little, and "Hart of Dixie" improved on its numbers as well. On the downside, "Emily Owens, M.D.," "Vegas" and "Parenthood" all lost some viewers opposite the "DWTS" finale (though "Parenthood" was up in adults 18-49).
CBS led the night in viewers with 14.4 million and a 9.0 rating/14 share in households. ABC (13.85 million, 8.7/13) was a close second. NBC took third with 7 million viewers and a 4.4/7. Fox (3.45 million, 2.2/3) came in fourth, and The CW (1.2 million, 0.8/1) trailed.
The race for the adults 18-49 lead was a tight one, with ABC's 2.8 rating coming out on top.

They may still not have the prestige of arch-rivals Pixar, but things have been looking up over at DreamWorks Animation of late. Once the home of poor CGI fare like "Shark Tale" and "Bee Movie," recent years have seen a new emphasis on quality rather (or at least in addition to) big names. 2010's "How To Train Your Dragon" was their best film to date, and last year even sequels "Puss In Boots" and "Kung Fu Panda 2" displayed more artistry than "Cars 2" did, picking up Oscar nominations for their trouble.
The company's next film, the Noah Baumbach-penned "Madagascar 3," lands in the summer, but the studio have just finalized the cast for one of their three movies for 2013, the superpowered snail tale "Turbo." The film has had Ryan Reynolds (who'll also lend his voice to their March 2013 release "The Croods") attached for a while, playing an ordinary garden...

Christmas is many things to many people; a time of happiness, a time of reflection, a time to be grateful for what you have. It is a time for a veritable barrage of films which literally cut-and-paste the same plot elements every. single. year. Now, I have absolutely no problem with Christmas, and I like to think I’m quite tolerant when it comes to giving films a chance, but when it comes to Christmas films, I’m a complete Scrooge.
