AMAZON'S SET-TOP BOX COULD BE ANNOUNCED NEXT WEEK


Amazon is sending out invites for an event to take place in New York on April 2. According to The Verge, the invite says that it'll give an "update for our video business." It's very possible that whatever Amazon is set to announce next week could be the rumored set-top box with gaming functionality.

Last year, it was rumored that Amazon would develop a Android-powered gaming console for the living room. The latest rumors have it pegged as a set-top box along with a leak revealing a game controller that resembles the OnLive controller with media buttons. It also includes a GameCircle button that resembles Amazon's gaming achievement and cloud save service.

The Wall Street Journal reported today that Amazon is planning an ad-supported streaming service that will deliver TV and music-video programming for free.

It's unclear whether the set-top box is Amazon's gaming device. In any case, interested users should tune into next week's Amazon announcement.

James Spader Leaving The Office

James Spader will be leaving The Office at the end of the current Season 8, after just one year on the show as the CEO of Dunder Mifflin Sabre.

Apparently, Spader did not want to return and Office executive producer Paul Lieberstein tells Variety, "James always wanted this to be a one-year arc, and he now leaves us having created one of the most enigmatic and dynamic characters in television. He's been a great friend to me and the show, helping us successfully transition into the post-Michael Scott years, and I'm grateful for that."

Variety says it's not clear how he'll be written out of the show. Personally, I'm curious if they'll have Robert simply leave the company or if they'll just say he's stopped flying to Scranton so much – it would be easy to keep him off screen in Florida and allow for occasional guest appearances, if Spader were up for it.

Officially, The Office has not been renewed for Season 9, but announcing Spader is leaving, which both NBC and Lieberstein confirm with Variety, pretty much confirms the show will go on – on the heels of the recent news of a potential spinoff.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - "Deception" Review

Note: Full spoilers for the episode follow.

There were a lot of fun elements to this episode, though I kind of feel like we saw a glimpse at a missed opportunity.

A prison where Cad Bane, Bossk and Boba Fett are among the inmates? That's awesome! I would have loved to have seen a villain-focused episode or storyline about these guys and what their prison life is like. Instead, it was used as background for another storyline, where only Cad Bane really played an important role. Very cool background, but still, I can't help but think how that could have been its own separate story - seeing more of how these prisoners interact and co-exist together. Though hey, at least we did see that Bossk actually does have Boba's back and is watching out for the kid.

Meanwhile, the whole idea of Obi-Wan going undercover among the scum and villainy of the Star Wars universe is compelling. And the fact that he faked his death to do so, with even Anakin and Ahsoka not
