Source Code Being Developed as TV Series
The sci-fi thriller from earlier this year, Source Code, will be adapted into a television series for CBS. Shaping up to be a procedural the show will follow three former federal agents who use the "Source Code" in order to infiltrate tragic events of the past. The movie received mostly positive reviews and performed decently at the box office. I'm not sure how this will work though if it follows the rules of the film.

NBA 2K12 Ratings for LeBron James and Kobe Bryant Spark Debate
In NBA 2K11 both Kobe Bryant and LeBron James entered as 97 overall prompting discussion with each having their own factions of supporters but it was mostly harmless since they were tied atop the ratings.
