BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Star Trek Series in Development at CBS

Boldly go back to television.

By Brandon Wolfe

Trekkies (or Trekkers if that’s the preferred nomenclature) will finally get their wish in 2017, when Star Trek finally returns to the small screen from whence it was birthed. Alex Kurtzman, who developed the rebooted film franchise along with Bob Orci, is developing a new series that will debut in January 2017 on CBS’ All Access digital distribution service

“This new series will premiere to the national CBS audience, then boldly go where no first-run Star Trek series has gone before – directly to its millions of fans through CBS All Access,” said Marc DeBevoise, executive VP and general manager of CBS Digital Media. “We’ve experienced terrific growth for CBS All Access, expanding the service across affiliates and devices in a very short time. We now have an incredible opportunity to accelerate this growth with the iconic Star Trek, and its devoted and passionate fan base, as our first original series.”

The series will debut just after the 50th anniversary of the Trek franchise and will be the first televised series in the saga since Enterprise went off the air in 2005. “There is no better time to give Star Trek fans a new series than on the heels of the original show’s 50th anniversary celebration,” said David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios. “Everyone here has great respect for this storied franchise, and we’re excited to launch its next television chapter in the creative mind and skilled hands of Alex Kurtzman, someone who knows this world and its audience intimately.”

It is said that the series will focus on characters new to the franchise, rather than preexisting favorites. It is not clear if the series will take place in the rebooted continuity established by J.J. Abrams’ 2009 film, but it will not directly tie into next summer’s Star Trek Beyond.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim
