One of the people who inspired The Wire's Omar Little, Larry "Donnie" Andrews died last week. Andrews went from stealing from drug dealers, to working as a killer for drug kingpins, to being an informant for the police. Much like Omar, he had his own code for who he would refuse to hurt in his crimes. He worked as a consultant on The Wire and eventually appeared on the show as one of Omar's crew. After his release from prison, Andrews worked to help inner-city youth find opportunities out side of gang crime through his Why Murder foundation.
Shameless creator Paul Abbott is bringing another one of his UK shows to the states. He's working with Alex Borstein (who came to fame on Mad TV and also wrote scripts for Shameless) to adapt Linda Green for U.

"Twelve Gigs on a Boat" by Laura Barton (Intelligent Life): For the last year, a boat balanced on top of a building has been one of London's premier concert venues, because who wouldn't want to perform on a boat balanced on top of a building?

After a few days of speculation, the news is now official: NBC confirmed that Jay Leno will be leaving his 10 o'clock time slot and returning to late-night. The last prime-time episode of "The Jay Leno Show" will air on February 12. There is currently no word on how the shake-up will effect Conan O'Brien (the host of "The Tonight Show," which airs in the 11:30 slot that Leno will be once-again assuming) or Jimmy Fallon (whose show airs after Conan's).
Though Leno ruled late night for years as the host of "The Tonight Show," he did not enjoy the same dominance when his new show launched back in September 2009. Though the show started strong, the ratings quickly bottomed out. The low numbers upset local affiliates, whose 11 p.m. newscasts were tanking because the lead-in audience was so low.
"The Jay Leno Show" joins an elite club of spectacular talk show disasters.
