If you still think of Cyndi Lauper as the rainbow-haired, helium-voiced pop music confection who defined '80s girl power with such tunes as "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" and "She Bop" -- well, you're still partially right. Her hair remains a canvas for her mood, and the voice is unmistakably Lauper.

The upcoming season of Arrested Development will feature 14 episodes that each tell their own story. Each one will have elements that connect to each other, eventually giving a bigger picture when the whole season has been watched. As Alyssa Rosenberg of Think Progress notes, that makes it the first TV show that can be watched in any order, making it a show that can be watched in a nonlinear fashion, something that could only be achieved on a streaming service like Netflix.
Apparently, ABC chief Paul Lee was so enthusiastic about Joss Whedon's S.H.I.E.L.D. pilot when talking to reporters at the TCA that its difficult to imagine it not making the fall schedule.
You can't fire Britney Spears, she quits!
