The Bachelor Spin-Off

As if the pandering of The Bachelor isn't enough, ABC has ordered a spin-off of the soft-porn reality series, titled Bachelor in Paradise.

Viewers will suffer through six episodes of Bachelor alumni still trying to find some *-toy or mate or love as ABC foots the bill for housing these poor souls living at a tropical location (which will make sure we get all the skin they can manage to televise).

-

Bar Rescue was renewed for a fourth season gang.

-

Party Down South got a second season renewal by CMT.

-

Psych

Just a quickie reminder that the series finale airs next week on USA!

-

In case you think you missed it or it took a break, The Tomorrow People moved to Monday nights, starting this week.

-

Someone asked me if ABC's Revenge is getting renewed for next year.

There's no solid news yet, but some recent reports where some cast members have been upped to regulars and others hired for new roles makes me think they're planning on an additional season.

Oh god, Kate Gosselin has managed to figure out how to make more money off her kids.

TLC will have a catch-up special on her and the eight kids.

"In 2007, viewers first fell in love with one of the most talked about families in reality television history. It’s now been over two years since we’ve last seen the Gosselin clan, and Kate and the kids are catching up with TLC for an hour-long special, slated to air in June. With the twins now 13, and the sextuplets about to turn 10, Cara, Mady, Alexis, Hannah, Aaden, Collin, Leah, and Joel join their mother in this update about their life as a family today.

Throughout the special, Kate and the kids get us up to speed on what’s changed in the family - how the kids have grown, what their interests are now, and what the latest is on Kate’s life and career. The hour will take a look back at some of the most memorable and poignant family moments from the past several years, and will highlight what the day-to-day routine has been for Kate and the kids since we last saw them."
