The cast and creative team behind the Disney+ series made a splash at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, revealing an action-packed teaser and announcing a December 10 return date for the highly anticipated Season 2. Adapting Rick Riordan's "Sea of Monsters," the new season promises intense maritime sequences, epic battles, chariot races, and new characters, including Percy’s cyclops half-brother, Tyson.

Executive producers Jon Steinberg and Dan Shotz emphasized the differences fans will see in Season 2. Steinberg (who also serves as showrunner) noted that unlike Season 1's ambiguity between reality and magic, the second season fully embraces its fantastical elements, as Percy embarks on a quest to find the Golden Fleece to save Camp Half-Blood. Shotz described the new season as "supersized," as the production utilized more practical sets over volume stage work, including scenes on a 175-foot ship built for the production.

The young cast was on hand to talk about their characters, with Walker Scobell noting how aging in real life alongside Percy has deepened his connection to the character. Newcomer Daniel Diemer, who plays Percy’s half-brother Tyson, talked about his love for the franchise and how excited he was to work with Scobell. The two quickly bonded on set, and shared with the crowd how they recreated the iconic scene of Jack and Rose on the bow of the Titanic.

In addition to the teaser, the panel concluded with a surprise video announcement from author Rick Riordan regarding the casting of Nico and Bianca Di Angelo for Season 3. Levi Chrisopulos will play Nico, while Olive Abercrombie ("The Haunting of Hill House," "Outer Range") will play older sister Bianca.

The Gilded Age continues to grow. Following the debut of Episode 5 of Season 3 this past Sunday, reports indicate that the HBO series has hit another record-breaking high in viewership. According to Variety, the new episode brought in 4 million viewers in its first three days. This is up from the previous record of 3.8 million for Episode 4, as BroadwayWorld reported last week.

NBC has opted not to move forward with the single-cam comedy pilot set at a Native American community center, Variety has learned.

The news comes one day after NBC announced a series pickup for “Stumble,” a comedy set in the world of competitive cheerleading that had also received a pilot order earlier this year. Variety exclusively reported that the community center project had received a pilot order in March.

The untitled comedy hailed from writers Sierra Teller Ornelas, Jackie Keliiaa, and Bobby Wilson. All three were also executive producers, with Teller Ornelas serving as showrunner. Morgan Sackett also executive produced.

“South Park” has always run, arms open toward controversy. Nothing and no one is off the table — it’s never actually had a political bent or loyalties. It, like all satire, simply comments on the current reality. But its shocks haven’t quite made the waves they did in its Bush-era heyday in a while. Sure, they have taken on Covid and Ozempic and OnlyFans, but nothing that has hit the mainstream the way its takes on the Iraq war or Scientology did.

Then came the Season 27 premiere.

Now, Trey Parker and Matt Stone are so back. The episode went hard. President Donald Trump isn’t even presented in the episode as an animated caricature. Instead, he’s a photo cut-out and then — instantly infamously — a hyper-realistic A.I. representation with an unfortunately small manhood.

“Resident Alien” has been canceled at USA Network, Variety confirms. Three episodes of the show’s fourth season are still set to air.

The sci-fi series first debuted in 2021 on Syfy but moved to USA after three seasons. “Resident Alien” premiered on its second network in June with the start of Season 4. The series’ fate has already been decided, but USA will air the final three episodes on their originally slated dates in the coming weeks.

“South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone hit the Comic-Con stage on Thursday night, a day after the Season 27 premiere of their smash Comedy Central series, “Sermon on the ‘Mount,” made waves for taking on both Donald Trump and “South Park’s” Paramount corporate parents.

The duo were asked whether they got any notes from the network over the episode — and Parker and Stone said most of the debate revolved around the episode’s animated tiny Trump penis.

Said Parker: “it’s always like, ‘so we love the episode,’ but that’s what happened. They’re like, ‘Ok, but...

As Harry Vanderspiegle (Alan Tudyk) would say on Resident Alien, this is some bullsh**. After four phenomenal seasons and endless accolades, the smartest sci-fi dramedy you should have been watching from the get-go will be ending its run at the end of this current season on USA Network. Just when Harry went and grew a soul, they have broken ours. “I knew going into it that this was likely going to be our final season,” creator and showrunner Chris Sheridan told TV Insider exclusively. “Creatively, that was exciting because I knew we could spend the time wrapping up some storylines and driving toward an ending. I’m so proud of how good Season 4 is and especially proud that we were able to finish as strongly as we did, with a finale that is probably my favorite episode of the series.” Based on the comic book of the same title by Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse,...

The premise: When a workaholic CEO (played by Krakow) tries to skip Christmas by flying to Australia, “she’s in for the flight of her life,” the synopsis tells us. “Haunted by her past, present, and future, she’s forced to confront the choices that led to her success yet left her flying solo.

In Hightown, nothing is as it seems. That’s certainly true for hard-partying National Marine Fisheries Service agent Jackie Quiñones (Monica Raymund) when, after a wild night out, she discovers the body of a young woman washed up on the beach. As an investigation ensues, Rhode Island state troopers link the case to a string of opioid-related crimes, and Jackie finds her small-town Providence life upended — all while struggling with her own addictions and a murky past that refuses to remain hidden.

Hightown was created by Rebecca Perry Cutter, whose latest show, The Hunting Wives, recently debuted on Netflix’s Top 10. The series stars Monica Raymund in her first role post–Chicago Fire, in which she played the beloved Gabby Dawson. She’s joined by Luis Guzmán, who plays a next-level psycho on par with his Narcoscharacter Gacha.

In celebration of the upcoming fifth and final season of the global hit series, Caitlin Clark and the rest of the WNBA’s Indiana Fever are embracing the Upside Down with a re-issue of their immensely popular Stranger Things-themed jersey from 2021.

With the FCC having cleared the Skydance Media-Paramount merger and the deal set to close in a matter of weeks, Paramount Global co-ceo Chris McCarthy will leave the media conglomerate, a company source confirmed to Variety.

McCarthy, head of Showtime & MTV Entertainment Studios, became co-ceo of Paramount Global in April 2024 with George Cheeks, president and CEO of CBS, and Brian Robbins, president and CEO of Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon. That came after Paramount ousted former CEO Bob Bakish.

Insiders expect Cheeks to remain at the head of CBS with the Skydance merger, while Robbins is expected to depart the company.

Tony Dokoupil shared his thoughts on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert‘s cancellation, and fans have mixed feelings about his perspective. During the Tuesday, July 22, episode of CBS Mornings, Dokoupil and his cohosts reacted to Jon Stewart suggesting that Paramount canceled The Late Show to appease President Donald Trump amid their merger with Skydance Media. Earlier this month, the media company reached a $16 million settlement with Trump after he accused 60 Minutes of heavily editing a 2024 interview featuring former Vice President Kamala Harris. Upon announcing the cancellation of The Late Show on July 17, CBS claimed that the decision was purely financial and “not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount.” On Tuesday, Dokoupil said he understood Stewart’s “emotional” reaction to the cancellation drama, but went on to add, “He’s not right that the merger, the $8 billion, is based on reruns of a comedy show,...

The commission voted 2-1 to approve the deal, with Commissioner Anna Gomez opposing it. Gomez,...

The Way Home is gearing up for Season 4. As part of the Hallmark panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday, July 24, Chyler Leigh (who plays Kat) revealed that The Way Home Season 4 will send Kat to 1925, where a riddle from last season will play out. Could that riddle be what Fern (Jill Frappier) sang about — ’65 — when Kat encountered her while time traveling? When TV Insider spoke with executive producers Heather Conkie and Alexandra Clarke after the finale, all the latter would say is, “Anything Fern says is a clue about her and her relationship to this family. Jill Frappier, who plays Fern, we all fell in love with her from the moment she set foot on set, and I’m so glad the audience has done the same. … Yes, there’s certainly more to tell with Fern, for sure.

“The Bear” was the seventh most-streamed title in the U.S. during the week of its Season 4 premiere, per Nielsen, hitting 917 million minutes watched from June 23 to June 29.

That puts the Season 4 premiere week in second place overall.

Once again, the world is under attack by an aggressive alien species looking to take over the globe for nefarious purposes — but this time, it’s Prime Video hosting the invasion with its latest sci-fi thriller.

Set for release on July 30, 2025, the revival of H.G. Wells’ story takes modern media into consideration as it offers a new vision of the timeless horror tale. “It’ll be exciting for audiences to watch the movie and ask themselves: if aliens invaded today, how would we experience it? Most likely, we’d be watching it on our phones,” says producer Timur Bekmambetov. “In that way, it’s kind of a modern spin on Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds. Back then,...

“E! News” has been canceled — again.

The celebrity-focused newscast will continue airing new episodes until Sept. 25 on E!, which is spinning off from NBCUniversal and will be folded into the new, publicly traded company Versant (formerly known as SpinCo). The cancellation comes three years after “E! News” returned from a two-year hiatus, after it was initially axed by E! in 2020. The series, originally a daytime program, returned as a late-night broadcast.

The decision to cancel the show is said to have come from the E! network, as it looks to leverage its brand of entertainment coverage and commentary across digital and social platforms.

In other words, the Comedy Central ‘toon is giving Trump the same treatment it gave Saddam Hussein in 1999’s South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut. Satan even alluded to Trump and Hussein’s similarities during Wednesday’s episode, telling Trump, “You remind me more and more of this other guy I used to date, like a lot.

For example, Tara and Rebecca (Nicole Pacent), who ended Season 18 engaged, are happy, Aisha Tyler told TV Insider.

Sicarius) in Season 16, with a network of like-minded individuals. Before the end of that season, he’d kidnapped and trapped Rossi (Joe Mantegna) in a storage unit. Then, in Season 17, he had knowledge of Gold Star, the next Big Bad. At the end of that season, he was attacked in prison. Season 18 began with Voit in a coma as a result, then when he woke, he was changed. He had amnesia and brain scans showed he was no longer a psychopath.

Boy bands, girl groups, mixed-gender ensembles. Soulful warbles, whistle registers, gritty resonance. On Building the Band, solo singers collided to form six new groups — each chasing one shot at stardom.

Ernest Kingsley Jr. was barely out of drama school before getting cast as the lead in Hulu’s “Washington Black.”

The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama student was performing in a 2021 production of “Is God Is” in London while taking Zoom auditions from the dressing rooms, culminating in his first TV lead.

One time, we were doing the chemistry read, and my brother tried to come into the room.

My life is on the line.'”

From phantoms to vampires.

CBS has ordered a pilot titled “Eternally Yours,” a blood-sucking love story from the creators of “Ghosts.”

The single-camera comedy, from writers and executive producers Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, follows two vampires who have been married for 500 years. The undying couple is challenged when their daughter begins dating a human.

In August 2024, CBS announced it was opening a development room for “Eternally Yours,” which has since wrapped. Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum and Jason Wang serve as executive producers on the project.

“Ghosts,” meanwhile, isn’t disappearing any time soon: In February, CBS gave the spooky sitcom a two-season renewal.
