CHICAGO – It began with a boy and his dream (nightmare?). John LaFlamboy, to be exact, as he took an idea he had in college and made it his life’s work. He owns and operates the HellsGate Haunted House in Lockport (Illinois), which was designed, built and put together by Haunted House experts expressly for the spookiest month of the year.

TV News: NBC Cancels Low-Rated Comedy ‘Outsourced’



CHICAGO – We all saw this one coming. NBC has officially canceled “Outsourced,” as we predicted they would, following the cancellations this week of “The Event” and “Law & Order: Los Angeles.”
“Outsourced” was one of those shows that always had decent numbers but when they renewed the more critically-acclaimed “Community,” “Parks and Recreation,” “The Office,” and “30 Rock,” it seemed unlikely that there would be any room on the network for another show with just “decent” numbers.
NBC has also renewed “Chuck” for a half-season, “Parenthood,” and “Harry’s Law.” Yes, we’re batting 1.000 on the peacock network so far.
Stay tuned for all of the details and news as it breaks.
