The 2023 Writers Guild of America strike lasted a whopping 148 days, becoming the second-longest strike in the labor union's history. From May 2 to Sept. 27, 2023, Hollywood writers were on strike after disputes with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) involving demands for higher pay and fair residuals, mandatory writer staffing, and protection from the threat of AI technologies. The strike impacted a slew of hit TV shows, including Abbott Elementary, Stranger Things, Saturday Night Live, The Handmaid's Tale, Severance, Hacks, and The Orville.

The Season 3 finale of the latter show premiered on Aug. 4, 2022, about nine months before the historic WGA strikes. From creator Seth MacFarlane (who donated a total of $6 million to the Entertainment Community Fund during the strikes), The Orville acts as a funny but heartfelt Star Trek spoof of sorts set 400 years in the future and follows the trials and tribulations of a starship crew, made up of both humans and aliens,...

Eiichiro Oda is the master of creating compelling characters, and the hundreds of characters in One Piece prove it with every chapter. Even characters who rarely appear in the story, or those with minimal screen time capture the readers’ attention. There are many characters more heroic than Shanks when he saved Luffy, but the sole moment made him a fan-favorite for years.

Similarly, even with scarce information about him, Joyboy became a hot topic of discussion ever since he was first mentioned. Simply just an enigma at the beginning, Joyboy has become a crucial part of the final saga in One Piece.

Brilliant but eccentric crime-fighting psychologist “Professor T.” started out in Belgium, proved popular in Germany, and is now headed for the U.S., Italy and Denmark.

The drama series hails from Belgium, where it airs on Vrt. German pubcaster Zdf’s remake was a hit locally. As the second season of the Rowboat Film-produced German version gets ready to launch Friday, a raft of international buyers have acquired the German series.

Mhz has acquired it for the U.S., while pubcaster Rai has bought it for Italy and Dr for Denmark. German drama is in vogue, but unlike “Babylon Berlin,” “Das Boot” or “Four Blocks,” “Professor T.” runs on a mainstream free-tv channel, not an edgy pay-tv channel.

Beta Film sells the German version and struck the new international deals for the eight-part German series. It stars Matthias Matschke (“Grand Budapest Hotel”) as the titular professor, who teaches criminology and...

Nordic Noir is popular in the United Kingdom right now and we tend to get hooked whenever we are given a new morsel to chew on. One thing we’d be stupid to not realise though is that Europe has much more to offer than just that certain brand of Noir. Salamander: The Complete Season One is an example of some television from Belgium hoping to get our attention, and with a tale of conspiracy and murder makes for a very watchable show.

When a bank is broken into but only 66 safe deposit boxes are opened, there is a sudden rush by the manager to keep the robbery a secret. When an informant informs Paul Gerardi (Filip Peeters) about it, the investigator refuses to let the subject drop. When the informant and an alarms expert dies suspiciously though Gerardi suddenly finds his life turned upside down and his family...
