The Hero: Finally, what my freshman roommate the TV world has long been waiting for — a reality competition program starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Johnson will mentor ten potential “heroes” who live in a house and are given a variety of challenges that test their brains, brawn, and morality. In the end, one player will be named a true hero. They will then be sent into a burning building filled with kittens. [Deadline]
The Good Wife: Looks like life post-Pan Am can go on. Christina Ricci will appear in CBS’ hit legal drama The Good Wife, as a comedienne who uses her beauty for comedic effect. Of course, she’ll seek out the services of Lockhart Gardner. [TVLine]
