Lucas had a minor storyline in When Calls the Heart Season 12. He shifted his focus to the gubernatorial campaign and struck up a new romance with Edie. But his feelings are still tied to Elizabeth, especially after she moved to Cape Fullerton with her family. Lucas will have more of a prominent role in Season 13, as more secrets are being revealed.

Major Storyline

Hearties have been wanting more for Lucas (Chris McNally) on the period drama. They’re finally getting their wish. Lucas and Edie (Miranda MacDougall) will continue their relationship in Season 13. In a new interview on the Official Hearties Aftershow, writer Allie Devereaux shared hints about the upcoming season.

Lucas will finally have a major storyline. Of course, she couldn’t reveal too much since the show isn’t in production yet. She promised that there would be more focus on the fan favorite. Hearties were concerned that...

James Adolphus’ new HBO documentary Being Mary Tyler Moore begins with an awkward 1966 interview of Moore by producer and talk show host David Susskind.

As Susskind rambles about how Laura Petrie, Moore’s character from The Dick Van Dyke Show, was a “strained idealization” of the American housewife, Moore sits with a big, clearly forced smile, before she finally breaks and launches into a celebration of Betty Friedan and The Feminine Mystique.

I’m rather sick of “Being” in the title for both documentaries and scripted stories — as if claiming to capture the essence of a person is shorthand for profundity — but Being Mary Tyler Moore is definitely invested in this sort of clash between superficial appearances and actual “being” when it comes to one of the most beloved and decorated women in TV history.

The documentary doesn’t always provide definitive answers on who Mary Tyler Moore was, but...

Get ready for more romance and drama in Hope Valley. Hallmark Channel has set a date for the return of its flagship drama series When Calls the Heart. The 12-episode ninth season, starring Erin Krakow, premieres at 9 p.m. Sunday, March 6.

In Season 9, Hope Valley is in a state of growth, with the foundry’s progress and the evolution of key relationships. The mayoral race has the town buzzing, with a few members of the town running against one another. Elizabeth (Krakow) and Lucas (Chris McNally) focus on their relationship beyond courtship, and as she gets to know Lucas better, she learns about his past — which gives Elizabeth pause about their future.

Jack Wagner, Pascale Hutton, Kavan Smith, Paul Greene, Andrea Brooks and Kevin McGarry also star in the series, inspired by the Janette Oke novel. Lori Loughlin starred in the series’ first six seasons before being axed from the...

Wgn America is adding to its Prime Crime slate with the acquisition of two original series in the detective procedural genre — the comedic Carter, starring Jerry O’Connell (Billions), Sydney Poitier Heartsong (Chicago P.D.) and Kristian Bruun (Orphan Black), which will premiere August 7, and crime drama Gone, starring Chris Noth (The Good Wife), Leven Ramblin (The Hunger Games) and Danny Pino (CSI: Miami), for debut in early 2019.

Carter and Gone are part of Wgn America’s new programming strategy of cost-effective originals launched a year ago that involves acquisitions of already produced series, virtually all in the crime arena. The two new pickups represent a new element in the tactic. While all previous acquisitions have been foreign series — 2017 Canadian detective drama Bellevue starring Anna Paquin, 2015 Swedish-American thriller 100 Code, 2016 Canadian police series Shoot the Messenger and the 2017 Canadian drama Pure — Carter and Gone, while having international pedigree, both originated in the U.

Loud noises on both coasts — hosannas in New York, wails of despair in Los Angeles — are coming from basketball fans today after Phil Jackson was hired as president of the New York Knicks. But the move isn’t just about games. Investors wonder whether the Zen master, coach of 11 NBA champions, star player on two others, will help not just the Knicks but also its parent the Madison Square Garden Company? Executive Chairman Jim Dolan, whose family controls Msg as well as Cablevision and AMC Networks, introduced his new team president at a news conference this morning at the Garden. He says his pal Irving Azoff — the longtime personal manager (Eagles, Steely Dan, Christina Aguilera) and CEO of recently launched partnership Azoff Msg Entertainment – introduced him to Jackson in December at a party at his house. Dolan and long-despairing Knicks fans hope that Jackson at least will help improve the...

The retailer’s stock closed -12% today after it disclosed in an SEC filing that the agency is investigating two matters involving the company’s recent financial reports. On October 16 the SEC’s New York regional office told Barnes and Noble that it’s looking at a company earnings restatement in July. In addition, the SEC is curious about a charge by a “former non-executive employee” that some Information Technology expenses had been ”improperly allocated” between the Nook and Retail segments. “The Company is cooperating with the SEC, including responding to requests for documents,” Barnes and Noble says in the filing. Did the chain lose $117M of its market value today just because of an investigation? Probably not. Many investors have also become pessimistic about the number of Nook tablets and e-readers that Barnes and Noble will sell this holiday season — especially after Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos attracted so much...

It’s official: We tv has picked up its first scripted series with a 10-episode order to The Divide, written by Richard Lagravenese (Behind the Candelabra) and co-created by Lagravenese and Tony Goldwyn (Conviction), for a 2014 premiere.

We tv is officially in the scripted business. The AMC Networks-owned cable network has handed out a 10-episode series order to The Divide, a drama originally developed at AMC from Richard Lagravenese (Behind the Candelabra, The Fisher King) and Tony Goldwyn (Scandal). Oscar and Emmy nominee Lagravenese penned the script and executive produces alongside Goldwyn (Conviction) and John Tinker (The Practice), who is on board to serve as showrunner. Andrew Sugerman (Conviction) will co-executive produce the series, which is slated for a 2014 premiere. . Story: AMC Gives Pilot Orders to Two Scripted Dramas "The Divide is the

It seems so: Netflix shares are down 5.9% in afternoon trading even though the overall market is up slightly. The chill follows the disclosure late last week that Time Warner Cable is interested in becoming a co-owner of Hulu, which is weighing purchase and investment offers from seven companies. In addition to the No. 2 cable company, firms believed to be in the mix include Yahoo, Kkr, Silver Lake Management/Hollywood agency Wme, Guggenheim Digital, DirecTV, and the Chernin Group (in partnership with investors Qatar Holding and Providence Equity Partners). Netflix investors are particularly concerned about Time Warner Cable because it shows that “cable operators have to get in the Netflix world in order to compete,” says Maxim Group analyst John Tinker. “It highlights that [the streaming business] is going to become more competitive.” Shares in Coinstar — the company behind the Redbox rental kiosks and a new streaming venture with Verizon — are down 1.2%.

The stock is down 7.3% at midday following the book chain’s warning last night that there’s bad news ahead regarding its Nook e-readers and tablets. It now forecasts that Nook revenues for the fiscal year that ends in April will come in below $3B, with a cash-flow (Ebitda) loss that will be “greater than it was in fiscal 2012.” That contradicts Barnes & Noble‘s assurance last month that the Nook unit would generate revenues of about $3B, with a cash flow loss “at a comparable level to fiscal year 2012.” And it makes 2013 the third straight year that Barnes & Noble will miss its guidance, Maxim Group analyst John Tinker notes. The Nook business “is proving to be expensive — and with slowing revenues makes spinning it off to tech investors harder,” he says. “At some point the company has to quantify the amount it is prepared to lose.” The company says it...

Shares of Viacom hit a 52-week high Thursday driven by slightly better-than-expected earnings and a slew of positive comments from analysts, mostly pertaining to a sense that things are improving at Nickelodeon and MTV can do fine without Jersey Shore.

Among the analysts firing off positive notes Thursday was John Tinker of Maxim Group, who titled his report “Welcome Back SpongeBob.” “MTV Networks' Catfish and Buckwild is performing well and is estimated to offset some dependence off Jersey Shore,

Jennifer Love Hewitt quickly rebounded from her longtime CBS series Ghost Whisperer with solid ratings for her new Lifetime show The Client List. Variety reported that The Client List debuted April 8 to 2.8 million viewers, making the Sony Pictures Television-produced drama the most-viewed series debut for Lifetime since Drop Dead Diva in 2009. Lifetime rewarded Hewitt and her Client List team with a second season renewal of 15 new episodes. Hewitt and fellow producers Dannielle Thomas, Howard Braunstein, Jordan Budde, Efrem Seeger and John Tinker adapted the series from the 2010 Lifetime TV movie starring Hewitt as Riley, a single mom in a conservative Texas town who works in a day spa that operates secretly as a bordello...

Exclusive: Bill Engvall is back at Turner. The actor-comedian, who headlined his won sitcom on TBS, is set to star in and executive produce an hourlong project in development at sibling TNT. John Tinker is set to write, executive produce and showrun the project, which centers on a fish-out-of-water detective from Texas (Engvall) who transfers to the NYPD. Jp Williams of Parallel Entertainment will produce. This marks Tinker’s return to TNT where he recently served as executive producer/showruner on medical drama Hawthorne. Engvall is one of the country’s most popular comedians as a solo act and part of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour with Larry the Cable Guy and Jeff Foxworthy. Engvall and Tinker are with Paradigm.

Update, 6:05 Am: CEO Mel Karmazin says he’s not worried that Sirius Xm will lose subs beginning in January when the monthly price will rise to $14.49 from $12.95. “We thought about raising the prices more,” he says. The company monitors consumer comments on social networks, and “we’ve seen them say they understand … there hasn’t been much reaction.” Still, he says that “we’re going to work closely with our ‘save’ desk’ ” to retain subs. He assured investors that he’ll keep costs under control but would consider repurchasing company stock or acquiring another company. “All of the bankers visit us regularly,” Karmazin says. He adds that he’s upbeat about 2012 in part because forecasts show a 1M pickup in auto sales, the main source of new satellite radio subscriptions. “The best is yet to come,” Karmazin says. Investors are less certain: Sirius Xm’s share price fell more...

HawthoRNe, TNT’s medical drama, just wrapped up its 3rd season and for Michael Vartan, that means he’s looking for his next job during his hiatus. “I would say you never stop looking for work as an actor,” he told me.

Who is the auteur of a production, the individual whose style and sensibility most shapes it? When it comes to film, the matter, for most people, was long ago settled by the journos-turned-filmmakers at Cahiers du Cinema over in France and critic Andrew Sarris back here in the states: the director. But what is the answer to that same question when it applies to the television? Because the medium inherently requires a much longer commitment from those who work in it, I think it’s even more of a relevant and interesting query, and I believe that I know the answer.

In television, directors, writers, and even actors tend to come and go over the course of a show’s run, and rarely have the final say on creative matters. Showrunners, however, are involved before the lights turn, and they tend to be the last ones to leave the room after the lights go out.

True Blood has tapped Hawthorne actress Christina Moore to join the season 4 cast as a recurring character. Moore, whose credits also include MADtv, That ’70s Show, and 90210, will play Suzanne McKittrick, a WASPy Texas housewife who possesses certain special abilities. Moore will shoot her True Blood arc while on hiatus from Hawthorne; production on the TNT drama’s third season (its first with new showrunner John Tinker) is scheduled to get underway this spring. Also landing multi-episode arcs on the upcoming season of True Blood are Neil Hopkins (a.k.a. Charlie’s brother Liam on Lost) as Claude, Claudine’s (Lara Pulver) mysterious brother, and Chris Butler (The Good Wife) as Emory, a prissy and conservative shapeshifter with his own agenda.

Veteran writer-producer John Tinker has joined TNT's medical drama Hawthorne. He will serve as executive producer/showrunner on the Jada Pinkett Smith-starring series' upcoming third season. Tinker replaces Glen Mazzara who ran the series fin its second season. Production on Season 3 is scheduled to being in the spring. On the Sony TV-produced Hawthorne, Tinker will serve as an executive producer alongside creator John Masius, Pinkett Smith, Miguel Melendez and Jamie Tarses. Tinker and Masius go back a long time.

Meanwhile, Mazzara has a new project in the works with Sony TV, which received a scripted commitment from Fox. Mazzara is writing the project, a medical drama, and is executive producing with Peter Tolan.

NEW YORK -- While the media and entertainment industry is projected to experience accelerated growth in the coming years, sector stocks will continue to show widely differing momentum, industry experts said here at a PricewaterhouseCoopers seminar Tuesday. "You have to be very selective", John Tinker, managing director of ThinkEquity, said in a panel discussion when asked about the outlook for sector stocks. "There is this separation between traditional media and the Yahoo!s of this world. This is (currently) the real growth sector, the Internet mainly, where growth is explosive."...
