Tv.com's Totally Tubular

Upfronts are here, finally! In this week's Totally Tubular, Tim and I analyze all the relevant scheduling news, make our picks for most promising pilot, and consider why Limitless is being hung out to dry. After that, we dig into the week's premieres, including the very anticipated debut of Preacher and the absolutely unnecessary return of Wayward Pines. Along the way, we break down why Totally Tubular, like CBS's abandoned Drew pilot, skews too female. Segment breakdown: Upfront news round-up (01:18 – 37:39), Netflix's Lady Dynamite (37:40 – 47:21), AMC's Preacher (47:22 – 58:16), Fox's Wayward Pines (58:17 – 01:06:18), and the mailbag (01:06:19– 01:20:07).

Beware! An upfront storm is blowin' in, and it's bound to bring in a swell of renewals, cancellations, and pilot orders. We here at Totally Tubular won't be caught out in the rain, oh no. We're prepared. In this week's episode, Tim and I chat about Fox's early pilot pick-ups, break down each network's biggest holes, and pick our fav potential series. Meanwhile, Noel jumps on the TV.com hotline to talk all things Good Wife. Disappointedly, nobody gets slapped.
