I was kinda disappointed with S2 overall so I hope this one's more cohesive.

Don't sleep on Physical which is turning out to be way better than I thought it might. It's dark, tightly structured for a fairly sprawling story and often very funny.

Trying is so good. Modern Love, too. Ted Lasso gave us similar vibes to Trying. Little America and Little Voice, too. Those are all excellent.Me and my fiancee absolutely loved Apple's Trying. Any similar shows around? We're already waiting for S2 of Modern Love, but still looking for something new to watch.

Brewster expressed regret on Thursday while responding to a fan account curious if there was any news about the show, saying "No, and sadly, we think it's dead. I'll let you know if there is any progress but it seems unlikely. Which is a bummer." Other stars of the show, such as Mandy Patinkin, Matthew Gray Gubler and A. J. Cook, have not yet made public comments.
C'mon Warner Bros. Television, NBC and Netflix, Manifest needs to be renewed after this.Would be nice for HBO Max to join sometime, as I'm curious how some of their shows would perform.

Following a year-plus of negotiating, Star Trek franchise captain Alex Kurtzman has extended his overall deal with producers CBS Studios.
Kurtzman has been with the studio for more than a decade. In 2018, Kurtzman and his Secret Hideout inked a $25 million overall deal extension with CBS Studios. The five-year deal was to have taken him through 2023. Sources say Kurtzman — who oversees five (and counting) Star Trek shows, among others, for the studio — asked to renegotiate his deal more than a year ago after seeing the overall deals market explode.
The new deal renegotiates the remaining two years on the first pact and adds another three years to keep Kurtzman and his Secret Hideout at the studio through 2026.
Beyond the Trek universe, Kurtzman is currently in London directing the Paramount+-turned-Showtime drama The Man Who Fell to Earth, starring Chiwetel Ejiofor. Kurtzman co-created the update of the Walter Tervis novel with friend and frequent collaborator Jenny Lumet, with whom he's also doing Showtime's Blackbird: Lena Horne and America. (That series is based on the life of Lumet's grandmother.) Additionally, Secret Hideout is also readying Scarface and the Untouchable for Showtime. Kurtzman also oversaw development of Showtime's The Comey Rule and is readying Kavalier and Clay alongside author Michael Chabon. (Kurtzman and Lumet's Silence of the Lambs offshoot Clarice remains in limbo as dealmaking has stalled for its planned move from CBS to Paramount+.) On the development front, Secret Hideout is also prepping New York Times at Special Bargain Rates, which is based on a Stephen King short story and has also optioned multiple books, including The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind.

Under the multiple-year overall deal, Penny will create, write, direct and produce as well as supervise new projects via his A Penny For Your Thoughts Entertainment production company for across Disney's multiple platforms. The focus will be for Hulu, which is the primary home for Onyx Collective Titles. Sources say the deal is valued in the eight-figure range.
C'mon Warner Bros. Television, NBC and Netflix, Manifest needs to be renewed after this.

None of the actors are under contract anymore so they're not going to announce it's coming back before they can get back the people they want.I don't know why it's taking so long to get this resolved, or at least let us know it's not happening. But you would think it's a guarantee now with these numbers.
"Saturday Night Live" impresario Lorne Michaels has an intriguing offer for veteran cast members thinking of leaving the show: Don't.
Each summer brings with it an annual "SNL" ritual in which Michaels and top producers try to figure out which members of the current troupe of the show's "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" will leave and which will remain. The process usually starts in August, but has commenced earlier this year, according to two people familiar with the matter, as Michaels works to convince cast members whose contracts may have lapsed not only to stay, but to stay for a while.
"SNL" is about to enter its 47th season, but Michaels hopes to get some cast members to agree to stay through the show's 50th, according to these people, a landmark occasion that is slated to start in the fall of 2024.
