Q: How scripted was "Supernanny"?

Author: 
Adam Thomlison / TV Media

To some degree it depends on who you ask, but the consensus answer seems to be "not as much as you'd think."

"Supernanny" was a reality TV show that originated on the U.K.'s Channel 4 but was reproduced for various markets. The U.S. version imported not only the format but the nanny herself: Jo Frost. It featured stories of families whose kids' bad behavior pushed them to the desperate end of asking a reality show nanny for help.

Q: Have "Zoo" and "The Last Ship" been canceled?

Author: 
Adam Thomlison / TV Media

Yes and … sort of.

It's all bad news for "Zoo," which got the axe last fall after three increasingly unsuccessful seasons on CBS.

The bad news for "The Last Ship" is that TNT canceled it in May, but the good news is it still has an entire season in the hopper that the cable channel will air later this year.
