Family Guy Celebrates Its 200th Episode

Freakin' sweet! Family is commemorating its 200th episode with a one-hour event including its milestone episode as well as a tribute to the Emmy Award-winning animated series.

The event will kick off with the episode entitled "Yug Ylimaf," in which Brian abuses Stewie's time machine, causing reality to run in reverse. As a result, they have to work together to set things right before Stewie is "unborn."

Then, in the Family Guy retrospective, "The End Of The World As We Know It," fans will get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the show's most memorable moments, featuring interviews with series creator Seth MacFarlane and voice actors Mila Kunis, Alex Borstein and Seth Green. Viewers will also be treated to an inside glimpse into the cast and crew's 200th episode party in Los Angeles.

Family Guy's one-hour 200th episode event begins on Sunday, November 11, at 9pm ET/PT on FOX.

FX Closes Deal to Develop Fargo as a TV Series with Coen Brothers Executive Producing

Back in March, it was revealed that FX were in very early conversations with MGM about a potential TV series based on the Academy Award winning Joel Coen & Ethan Coen film. Now, Deadline reports FX have closed the deal and are actively developing the project, and that the Coen Brothers will be involved -- in title at least -- as executive producers.

Fargo will be written and executive produced by Noah Hawley, the creator of The Unusuals and My Generation, which will be co-produced by MGM and FX Productions.

Frances McDormand won an Oscar for her role as the lead character, police chief Marge, in Fargo, with the Coens themselves winning for best screenplay. It’s expected that Marge will be the main character – though we’ll see just how pregnant she is this time.

New Michael J. Fox Series in Development

Vulture is reporting that Emmy award-winning actor Michael J. Fox (Family Ties, Back to the Future Trilogy) could be headed back to prime time TV with his own new show. A single-camera comedy is currently in development for the star, who's been battling Parkinson's disease since being diagnosed in 1991.

Fox, with Larry David, on Curb Your Enthusiasm.

The show is reportedly "inspired" by Fox's own life, which suggests that his condition will also be front and center on the show. Perhaps in the same way that it was on the hilarious episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm that Fox guest starred on last year, "Larry vs. Michael J. Fox." Fox is working with director Will Gluck (Easy A) and writer Sam Laybourne (Arrested Development) and it's being reported that they've already begun shopping it around to networks.

All-Star Cast Revealed for Dishonored

The voice cast for Dishonored has been revealed, and it's quite impressive to say the least.

Academy award-winner Susan Sarandon, appearing for the first time in a video game, plays Granny Rags – a former aristocrat, she's been driven mad from years living on the streets of Dunwall. Chloë Grace Moretz ( Kick Ass's Hit Girl) voices Young Lady Emily, the daughter of the Empress who is kidnapped after her mother's death. Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones) stars as Emily's caretaker Calista.

Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs), Brad Dourif (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), and John Slattery (Mad Men) also lend their vocal talents to Arkane Studio's first-person action game featuring a supernatural assassin driven by revenge.

And if that wasn't enough, it even stars Princess Leia. Well, Carrie Fisher will be heard throughout the city of Dunwall, broadcasting government propaganda on a speaker system.

“Having such talented actors voice Dishonored's compelling cast of characters adds a rich, powerful element to the game,” said Raphaël Colantonio, president of Arkane Studios. “We want to draw people into this virtual world and make it feel real. This celebrated cast adds wonderful depth and credibility to the overall Dishonored gameplay experience."

Dishonored is set for release in North American on October 9, 2012 and in Europe on October 12, 2012 on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
