Coming off the latest toxic transformation for the veteran Batman villain on the September 28 “The Fear Reaper” episode, Frequency and Mad Men alum Peyton List will be joining Gotham as the latest Ivy…

Titan Platform, a 5-year-old Korea-based company, is entering the crowded U.S. streaming video market today with what it calls a “beyond-OTT” set-top device, which will also be available in China, Singapore and South Korea.

In the Frequency epilogue, police detective Raimy Sullivan (Peyton List)…

The CW has made it official, canceling softly rated freshman dramas Frequency and No Tomorrow. Both series got off to a slow start in the fall and neither got a back order — the first time in the CW's 11-year history that no new fall series received a full-season order.

A 10-year streak has ended at the CW.

Time travel returns to television with the debut tonight of Timeless on NBC and the October 5 premiere of Frequency on the CW, but neither series ever rises to do the H.G. Wells-coined expression and genre justice. In fact, as I say in my video review above, the problem with both the Shawn Ryan and Eric Kripke…

The CW has unveiled key art designs for its new fall series Supergirl, Frequency and No Tomorrow. Supergirl‘s key art features star Melissa Benoist as DC Comics character Kara Zor-El wrapped in her signature red cape, with the tag line “The CW has a new hero,” reflecting the series’ move from CBS.

When the 2000 New Line sci-fi dramatic feature Frequency was released, it wasn’t a mass-appealing success, opening third at the box office with $9M and legging out to $45M.
