After garnering much praise for his performance (and body) in Magic Mike, Channing Tatum is moving his burlesque-knowledge to the small screen. According to Variety, the movie star is developing an hour-long docu-series with A&E about his burlesque club Saints and Sinners.
The untitled show, which is currently in the pilot stage, will follow the going-ons of the New Orleans club that Tatum opened with his friend and business partner Keith Kurtz last year. While it's unclear if Tatum will appear in the series, we're hoping that he'll stop by Saints and Sinners and give us a show for old times' sake. (We're also crossing our fingers that the show will be in the vein of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Lisa Vanderpump's Vanderpump Rules — the reality star's Bravo show that follows the staff of her West Hollywood restaurant — but with way more stripping.)
The pair will executive produce the show alongside Original Media's Charlie Corwin (Half Nelson).

'THE WALKING DEAD' RENEWED FOR SEASON 5
Surprise, suprise — The Walking Dead is coming back for a fifth season in 2014, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The news that AMC has decided to renew the drama is completely expected considering it is TV's top show in the adults 18-49 demographic and its season-four premiere drew 16.1 million viewers. (That's a lot of zombie fans.)
Even AMC knew the announcement wasn't going to be a shocker:
"We are very happy to make what has to be one of the most anti-climactic renewal announcements ever: The Walking Dead is renewed for a fifth season," AMC president Charlie Collier said, according to THR. "This is a show that has erased traditional distinctions between cable and broadcast. Its expanding base of passionate fans has grown every season, most recently -- and most notably -- with the season-four premiere earlier this month, which broke viewership records for the series and became the biggest nonsports telecast in cable history. On behalf of the incredible team on both sides of the camera, thank you to the fans and here's to more Dead."
AMC also announced that Scott M. Gimple, its newly installed showrunner, will return as executive producer.

Georgia PM ally revels in big win at presidential poll
Tbilisi (AFP) - An ally of billionaire Georgian Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili on Monday basked in an overwhelming win at presidential polls in the ex-Soviet state to replace larger-than-life moderniser Mikheil Saakashvili after a decade in power.
Giorgi Margvelashvili, a politically inexperienced academic from Ivanishvili's Georgian Dream coalition, was cantering to victory with some 62 percent of the vote at the election Sunday after ballots from over 70 percent of polling stations had been tallied, the election commission said.
