Hey guys, Eric here for an actual brand new episode of Channel Surfing - Not one recorded two and a half weeks ago!

Laura Prudom from the Huffington Post joins me again as guest co-host, as we play some major catch up with the not-at-all-new news that Clark Gregg is starring as Agent Phil Coulson in S.H.I.E.L.D. – though we have actual recent news too, with Ming-Na Wen joining him in the ABC pilot!

Then there’s the bizarre situation with Up All Night, as NBC retools the series into a multi-camera sitcom. Plus, Dan Harmon’s new animated series gets the greenlight at Adult Swim, while G4 pulls the plug on Attack of the Show and X-Play.

We then discuss Arrow getting a full season order and our spoilery discussion on the show’s first three episodes, from 26:15-32:10 – followed by a “Watch Nikita!” rant and news about Seth Green on How I Met Your Mother, the lead being cast in Shawn Ryan’s Beverly Hills Cop, a potential Twilight TV series (sigh…) and Frank Darabont getting a greenlight for his new TNT LA Noir series. Plus, what the hell happened to DC Nation?

Reader email brings us an Arrow-related question about secret identities, followed by a spoilery Fringe chat (for what’s aired so far) from 57:30-1:02:00 and a Legend of Korra Emmy query.
