TV viewers are no stranger to bleeped swear words in their favorite shows, but there’s always a double-take when F-bombs slip past the censors. It may now be intentional, as USA and Syfy are relaxing language standards on mature series – the sign of a coming trend.
Syfy wasn’t about to pass up “From the creator of Game of Thrones,” so an adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s Nightflyers is officially off the ground. The network has given a series order to the space odyssey, which may also find a surprising partner in Netflix.
Syfy hasn’t given up too many details of its proposed Purge TV series just yet, but with a fourth film gearing up in Staten Island, director James DeMonaco is opening up. Meet the cast of our new Purge TV series, and find out when in the series’ timeline the anthology takes place.

Horror anthology seems to be all the rage these days, and where TNT failed with a Shyamalan-curated horror block, John Carpenter will pick up the slack. The Thing director will develop Tales for a Halloween Night at Syfy as part of an overall Universal deal to develop new series.
Ah, Deep Blue Sea. On the one hand, it’s a cheesy movie about killer sharks with a cast of actors — Thomas Jane, Saffron Burrows, LL Cool J — who, although talented, aren’t exactly setting the industry on fire right now. On the other hand, though, it’s undeniably one of the most fun shark movies of them all. That Samuel L. Jackon speech! Those shark attacks! LL Cool J keeps talking to his parrot!
