MTV is bringing ‘Punk’d’ back in 10-minute clips
According to TVLine, MTV Studios is working on "reinvented" versions of the celebrity prank show Punk'd and the dating game show Singled Out. If you can't stand the thought of watching those classics, you might be happy to know each episode will be less than 10 minutes long. That's because the shows will launch on Quibi, an upcoming mobile-first video streaming service that plans to package content in short snippets.
What's on your HDTV: 'Fear the Walking Dead', 'Punk'd' and 'Zombi'
This week a spinoff for AMC's popular The Walking Dead series is premiering, along with the very familiar Zombi game for PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Previously seen on the Wii U as Zombi U, it's (appropriately) making a return on new platforms, with some of the features developed for the Wii U's tablet now redesigned for conventional controllers. Keeping with the theme, our final blast from the past is Punk'd, returning for a 10th season, but now on BET featuring social media stars DeStorm Power and King Bach instead of Ashton Kucher. Need one more? Take a look at Starz on Saturday where Sir Patrick Stewart is headlining a new series Blunt Talk -- or just watch the first two episodes right now. Look after the break to check out each day's highlights, including trailers and let us know what you think (or what we missed).
Molyneux: Pub Games 'glitch' intentional, with consequences
While we're sure you've already constructed your Scrooge McDuck-esque pool of golden, nefariously-obtained Fable II Pub Games earnings, Peter Molyneux might be preparing to pull off the biggest gamer prank since the anti-Spore Rick Roll. According to a quick blurb in IGN's Fable II preview, "Just be warned. Molyneux has said that the cheat was no accident and that those who used it to earn their money will be in for a surprise." Something tells us that "surprise" isn't being filthy rich in-game. Is he bluffing? We'll find out soon enough when our sea of coins is quickly drained from under us. Fable 2 is due out October 21. Need more Fable 2? We can't blame you. Check out our hands-on with the first three hours of the game, as well as our interview with Peter Molyneux, in which he talks about his game, Too Human and Lionhead's "shocking" secret project.
