Worst Cooks in America host and mentor Chef Anne Burrell has revealed a possible new career aspiration after her mysterious absence from the latest installment of the fan-favorite Food Network competition series. When Works Cooks in America: Celebrity Edition: Heroes Vs. Villains premiered, fans were shocked to see that Anne, who'd starred on the show since its 2010 premiere, was absent without an explanation, and replaced by Chef Jeff Mauro and Chef Antonia Lofaso.

Exclusive: Cheryl Burke is coming back to ABC.

The longtime Dancing with the Stars pro has signed a first-look deal with the network. Under the agreement, Burke will develop entertainment programming such as scripted and unscripted live-action and animated series, as well as specials and podcasts.

Burke left DWTS in 2022 after 26 seasons. During her memorable tenure in the ballroom, she was the first female pro to win the Mirror Ball Trophy and the first pro in the history of the franchise to become a back-to-back champion.

After leaving DWTS, Burke went on to launch “Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans,” an iHeartRadio podcast that took a deep — and sometimes controversial — dive into the ballroom competition show. It consistently ranked in Apple Podcasts’ Top 50 across TV and film before Burke, in December, announced she was pausing the show after nearly 200 episodes.

Burke currently serves as one of the hosts on the podcast...

Spoiler Alert: This article contains major spoilers from “A Dysfunctional Family,” the sixth episode of Season 3 of “The Traitors,” now streaming on Peacock.

Wes Bergmann knows what it’s like to take over a reality show. He’s had two decades of experience on “The Challenge” franchise, and being the villain has often paid off. Case in point: he’s won three seasons.

Unfortunately, his “aggressive” behavior — his fellow faithful’s words, not mine — didn’t bode well in “The Traitors” castle and led to his banishment. After he attempted to point the finger (correctly) at Boston Rob Mariano as a traitor, the group turned on him. Chrishell Stause claimed she didn’t like their interactions and when he stated during the round table discussion that he would come for anyone who voted for him, he cemented his place as the next banished cast member.

If there’s a show you’ve been waiting years to return, chances are it’s coming back in 2025. From “Stranger Things” Season 5, which is expected to premiere later this year, to “Severance” Season 2, some of the biggest and buzziest shows on television are expected to make their returns in this new year.

Part of the reason for this big return has to do with the residual effects of the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Those historic Hollywood effects delayed production across the board. While broadcast series were largely able to air new episodes in 2024, prestige streaming and cable shows — which typically take a bit longer to produce on average — needed a bit more time to bounce back.

But bounce back they did. And it’s not just the “White Loti” and “Andors” of the world fans have to look forward to. Do you love procedural classics? New episodes of...

5 Reality Shows with the Biggest Cult Followings - Main Image

Some of the reality shows throughout the year have gained the biggest cult followings that we've ever seen as loyal fans are still watching them despite the passage of time.

Big Brother fans met Frankie Grande during the summer of 2014 season. An energetic personality on the BB16 cast, he also had a secret.

Frankie is the brother of singer and actress Ariana Grande. As BB16 progressed, he eventually revealed that secret to the rest of the houseguests.

Frankie fell short in fifth place on BB16 due to the tight alliance between Derrick Levasseur and Cody Calafiore.

Derrick won Big Brother 16, Cody came in second, and Donny Thompson was named America’s Favorite Houseguest and the season also featured Nicole Franzel, who would return for (and win) Big Brother 18.

Frankie and Nicole returned for Big Brother: Reindeer Games during the winter of 2023, with Nicole becoming the only person to win two Big Brother US shows.

After his time in the Big Brother house, Frankie was seen on the red carpet with his sister, routinely praising her for her career accomplishments.

As of right now, Darnell is the host of Superchef Grudge Match, but there is a chance his career at the Food Network may come to an end earlier than he would have ever planned.
