 Time Warner will soon be offering its users a way to stream Internet video to their television screens as part of an overall home networking system. In short, Time Warner is getting into the same business that Apple TV has already gotten into long ago.
“We’re actually going to have equipment we make available to subscribers,” said Chief Executive Glenn Brit at the Sanford C. Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference in New York this past Friday. “It’s actually going to be a new wireless cable modem that will grant you to network everything in your house.”

 OK, so this is just really cool. In an effort to drum up some buzz for their numerous Emmy nominated programs, NBC Universal is offering up free Emmy campaign buttons at their 2008 nomination website.
All you’ve to do is plug in your full name, street address, and e-mail and just like that, you got free buttons! 15 in all to be exact since you’re allowed to check off as many as you want. Most of them have pretty funny campaign-esque sayings on them, similar to the 30 Rock button pictured at right.
Perhaps you like House (airs on FOX, but NBCU distributes it)? Then “Thank Hugh!” Or maybe you like The Office? Then get ready to “Believe in Steve.” For those than can’t wait for Sylar’s return, don’t forget to “Support our Heroes.”
The only one I don’t like? The Law & Order: Criminal Intent button. “D’Onofrio/Noth - Vote Both.” Vote… both?? What? Does that even rhyme?

 As Roger Daltry once sang, “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.” Tim Minear has signed a new seven figure deal that will keep him at 20th Century Fox Television for another two years. His job will continue to involve working on existing shows while developing new drama projects. He’s now been at 20th for over a decade, counting among his credits The X-Files, Strange World, Angel, Firefly, Wonderfalls, The Inside, and Drive.

Filed under: Industry, Programming, Reality-Free, Mad Men
 AMC has announced that the critically-acclaimed drama Mad Men will return for a second season on July 27, in its new Sunday at 10pm time slot. This moves it away from another hit cable show, Burn Notice, which is staying in its Thursday at 10 time slot, but puts it up against Lifetime’s Army Wives (and, for the record, network shows like ABC’s Brothers & Sisters)
I don’t really see this as a bad thing. People record and watch shows at all different times now, and besides, a lot of hip cable shows have been successful on Sunday nights (The Sopranos, Deadwood, etc). AMC will also have a marathon of the first season’s 13 episodes on July 20.
In other news, a soundtrack from the show will be released on June 22, and the first season DVDs will be in stores on July 1.
What do you think of the move?

 Here’s an interesting little film short that I saw on Turner Classic Movies earlier this week. It features Dan Rowan and the recently departed Dick Martin, stars of the 60s psychedelic sketch comedy Laugh-In, promoting the sale of the new U.S. Savings Bonds called Freedom Shares, which were introduced back around 1967. If you were an avid fan of the NBC comedy you would recognize the back-and-forth between these two — Rowan was the straight man to funny man Martin — as they discussed the benefits of these bonds to the movie-going public.
The video is after the jump.

 Looky there. With just those seven tiny words The Sarah Connor Chronicles has become the show I’m most looking forward to next season. With music, there’s nothing I like more than putting a little Garbage on the turntable. Because of that, over the years I’ve become just a little bit obsessed with Shirley Manson. And now comes word that the lovely and talented Miss Manson has been signed to the show.
Just that is enough to make me watch, but it gets even better. This isn’t a musical guest like someone stopping by to play at P3 or the Montecito. Oh no, Shirley will join the cast in a regular role as Catherine Weaver, CEO of a high-tech company. One could certainly argue that it’s stunt casting, or that they could find a more qualified actor to take on such a massive role. But any crazy argument like that will fall on deaf ears here pal. It’s Shirley Manson. That’s all I need to know.
