The FCC has temporarily halted the review process of the proposed $30 billion merger between Comcast-NBC Universal until it receives two additional economic reports from the companies involved. One report is about the supposed economic benefits that will result once the merger takes place and the second one is focused on the impact of online video distribution. The FCC also delayed the comment and reply comment deadlines until after it receives these requested reports from Comcast and NBCU. Despite this setback, a spokesperson from Comcast said the company projects a finalization of the regulatory process this fourth quarter. IFC is bringing back a third season of its original series The IFC Media Project with a changed titled and format. The IFC Media Project Presents: FEAR, WAR, GREED and DISASTER offers four 30m documentaries hosted by award-winning journalists who serve up facets of each topic that has, up to now, not been reported on by the mainstream media. The series begins with FEAR May 24 at 8p as Max Blumenthal, senior writer for The Daily Beast and contributor to Salon.com and the Huffington Post delves into the Tea Party movement. The other three episodes, WAR, GREED and DISASTER will air nightly through May 27 at 8p. The series is created and produced by HonestEngineTV’s Meghan O’Hara and Nick McKinney. USA Network renewed its drama series Burn Notice for a fifth and a sixth season, even though season four is not launching on the network for another two months, reports Variety. USA okayed 15 and 18 episodes for each season respectively. Production for the fourth season continues in Miami and season five will begin production approximately a year from now. USA also purchased the off-net rights to all six seasons of the show, which will launch as a strip on USA in October 2011. Top 10 Weekend Box Office Estimates: April 16-18, 2010 And the latest reports from the MIPTV location in France — many are still in Cannes unable to leave due to the volcanic ash cloud and the closing of the nearby Nice airport. It seems the Friday morning flight out to New York on Delta was the last before the airport was closed (boy, did I get lucky!). The next flight out from Nice to JFK is scheduled for Tuesday (fingers crossed), and I hear it may be overbooked. Delta doesn’t have this flight schedule to run at all on Wednesday, so many are hoping to return on Thursday or Friday. According to friends still in France, there are those who are riding in the trucks carrying MIPTV booths to cities where they can make connections; and others have rented taxis from Paris to Barcelona. And reportedly there is one person who has already booked a cabin on the QE2 leaving on June 2nd … just in case. Admittedly, my source indicates that one may be an urban legend, but let’s face it, these folks are living thru truly interesting times. Come home soon all — we’re rooting for you!
