TEASER FOR BBC "BEING HUMAN" SEASON 4! STEPHEN AMELL IS CW'S "GREEN ARROW"! NEW ABC PILOTS FOR FANTASY SHOWS "BEAST", "GOTHAM" & DRAMA "DEVIOUS MAIDS" FROM MARK CHERRY

OK, my little freaks, so we are having a TV day today at HOLLYWOOD SPY, starting with a spicy piece of news which will thrill both my boys who love comics and my girls who like hunky boys ;) CW's new show
based on GREEN ARROW comic book, which I've recently announced, has got itself its lead man and a new title - it is now titled just simple ARROW. According to "Deadline" young Stephen Amell will take the lead role of the DC Comics superhero Green Arrow or Oliver McQueen, a billionaire playboy who wears a mask and fights crime at night with his bow and arrow, along with an assortment of other super modern devices. Amell has appeared before in THE VAMPIRE DIARIES and 90210 and was also one of the main contenders to take the lead in SPARTACUS before Liam McIntyre got the gig.

HOLLYWOOD SPY TV NEWS
HOLLYWOOD SPY's fave network ABC is preparing yet another new show. After huge success with ONCE UPON A TIME with 10 million
viewers every week,  the new fantasy show will be BEAST  a fantastical reimagining of the classic fairytale BEAUTY AND THE BEAST set in a mythical, dangerous world wherein a beautiful and tough Princess discovers an unlikely connection with a mysterious beast. Don't confuse this one with CW's upcoming remake of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST which will be a remake of the 80's TV show and will have law and courts as the main topic. ABC has also ordered another two pilots: GOTHAM, from the writer of HEROES, following a female cop who discovers a magical world that exists within New York
City that is unseen by normal humans and reinvents popular landmarks in a magical otherworldly manner, and DEVIOUS MAIDS, from DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES creator Mark Cherry, following four maids with ambition and dreams of their own working for the rich and famous in Beverly Hills.

Good news for all of you who love popular BBC show BEING HUMAN(which follows three room-mates - a vampire, a werewolf and a ghost): the fourth season is ready to air this Sunday, February 5th. As you know, I've loved the show from its beginning, and I don't mean the US version, but the British original which had amazing atmosphere right
from the start and interesting plots combined with charming humour. According to "Digital Spy" the premiere episode 'Eve of the War' will follow the ghostly Annie (Lenora Crichlow) and werewolves George (Russell Tovey) and Tom (Michael Socha) as they fight to protect a baby from the attentions of vampire overlords, the Old Ones. The fourth run of the show will also present a new vampire played by Damien Molony since Aidan Turner has left the show and is now one of THE HOBBIT stars. It is interesting that Russell Tovey has also announced that he will leave the show, so this will be his last year in it. Check out the trailer for the new season!
