What's on your HDTV: 'Street Fighter 5,' 'Better Call Saul'
It's back! We could be talking about Street Fighter 5 or Better Call Saul and it still works. Somehow The Grammys tonight is being pushed back by those two debuts, while Hulu is already streaming the series premiere of 11.22.63. Of course, if you prefer Netflix, then just wait until Friday morning when it drops Judd Apatow's new series Love as well as Cooked. On Blu-ray we have Steve Jobs, and Xbox One owners can finally dive in to Rocket League, now featuring cars based on Halo and Gears of War. Look after the break to check out each day's highlights, including trailers and let us know what you think (or what we missed).
'House of Cards' S4 trailer shows it has some intrigue left
While Netflix has already dropped a couple of teasers for the next season of its flagship series, the official House of Cards season four trailer gives viewers their first extended look at some new footage. Poll results suggest that most of you (56 percent) are still riding with the Frank Underwood 2016 campaign, so take a peek and enjoy the final season produced under the guidance of show creator Beau Willimon. (Otherwise, you can also check out new trailers for Fuller House, Judd Apatow's series Love and The Art of Organized Noize documentary that's coming to Netflix March 22nd.)
Netflix's latest series is a romantic comedy co-written by Judd Apatow
Now that Netflix has a solid (if imperfect) track record with original shows, it appears that the big-name talent is lining up for its chance at creating an internet-only hit. Case in point: the streaming service has reached a deal with Legendary Television to release Love, an "excruciatingly honest" romantic comedy penned by 40 Year-Old Virgin producer Judd Apatow, Inglourious Basterds' Paul Rust and Girls' Lesley Arfin. You won't see the end result until 2016, but Netflix is already confident that you'll like it. The company has already committed to two seasons (22 episodes total) sight unseen -- if you're a fan of Apatow's frequently blunt approach to on-screen relationships, you're going to get your fill.

Quentin Tarantino and Christopher Nolan want to save the future of movies on film
The movie industry has seen its share of struggles as we transition into a digital future, and likely no one has felt the pinch more than film company Kodak. The struggling outfit is getting a life-raft, though, in the form of several studios committing to buy a set amount of celluloid per year regardless of if any of their movies are even made using film. As The Wall Street Journal tells it, directors J.J. Abrams, Judd Apatow, Christopher Nolan and Quentin Tarantino -- all who've professed their love for celluloid quite publicly -- were part of the lobbying council for the business deal. Why? Because they adore the look and feel of working with the physical format. Nolan's Interstellar and Abrams' upcoming Star Wars are both being shot on film, but for better or worse, though, these filmmakers are a dying breed.
