~ MORE GOOD STUFF ~

Yesterday, FOX sent a letter to Cablevision demanding Cablevision should “cease and desist encouraging theft of copyrighted material.” FOX based its demand on a report in yesterday’s New York Daily News, citing Cablevision’s apparent direction to its subscribers to visit illegal websites to watch copyrighted FOX shows including NFL games and MLB playoffs. FOX further said,

“Copyright law exists to protect the very creative freedoms that fuel our industry. As both a creator and owner of intellectual property – not to mention major sports franchises  Cablevision knows better and should immediately call an end to this unlawful activity.”

Due to their ongoing retransmission-consent deal dispute that could prevent Cablevision customers from viewing the World Series, Cablevision President/CEO James Dolan also sent a letter late yesterday to FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski reconfirming his and his company’s desire to enter into a mediation process. Dolan said he would be at Genachowski’s office tomorrow to meet with News Corp.’s Chase Carey in case the Chairman wants to call a meeting. Dolan’s letter in part says,

“Based on the negotiations to date, I can assure you that only with your assistance in bringing the parties together in your office will productive, good faith talks occur. And I will commit to you that I will come ready with new, constructive offers, prepared to reach agreement tomorrow.”

Also late yesterday, FOX released this statement responding to Cablevision:

“In a filing with the FCC today, Fox responded to Cablevision’s allegations. We are confident that the FCC will review the information before the commission and find that we have acted with the utmost good faith.
“Fox once again calls on Cablevision to return to the bargaining table and resume constructive negotiations.”

FX is moving forward with the live-action comedy series Wilfred headlined by Elijah Wood and Jason Gann, ordering 13 episodes to debut summer 2011. Wilfred is based on an Australian series of the same name and it was adapted for FX by David Zuckerman who serves as writer for the pilot and as Executive Producer/Showrunner. Wood stars as Ryan, an introvert who struggles to find both personal and professional happiness until he meets Wilfred (Gann), who is described as part Australian Shepherd, part Russell Crowe on a bender. Everyone else sees Wilfred as a dog though Ryan thinks of him as a man dressed in a dog suit. Also co-starring in the series is Fiona Gubleman as Jenna, Ryan’s beautiful next door neighbor and owner of Wilfred. The series is produced by FX Productions and executive producers include Rich Frank, Paul Frank and Jeff Kwatinetz of Prospect Park, along with Joe Connor and Ken Connor of Renegade, the producers of the Australian version of Wilfred. Gann will be the series’ co-executive producer.
