One of my favorite parts is a segment in which Hana and her Pokémon friends fly through various regions across the world, so there are plenty of nods to other settings, even if you're not big on Paldea. I'm very behind on Pokémon Horizons, but even if you don't watch the weekly episodes, I can't recommend going through the series' limited animated series enough. There are some real gems on that channel like Pokémon Evolutions and Twilight Wings, and they often dive into the universe in a more grounded, human way rather than relying on the same competitive sport storylines that were so central to the anime for decades.

Willis, who fronted Big Brother on its move to Channel 5, said: "It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of Strictly - I've cheered and danced along from my sofa for years - so to be stepping into the Strictly ballroom is something I can't quite comprehend. It's impossible to fill the shoes that Tess and Claudia have left behind - two wonderful, iconic women who have been the beating heart of Strictly for so long. I can only hope that we are able to help to steer the ship as beautifully as they have, into this new chapter."

A mix of television broadcasts and a brief return to live theater occupied the space until 1993, when CBS bought the landmarked structure for their new talk show, The Late Show with David Letterman. Colbert took over the desk in 2015, and in July 2025, CBS announced that The Late Show would end on May 21, 2026, after 33 years.

8.15pm, BBC One The enjoyably quirky murder mystery comedy about retired actor John Chapel (Timothy Spall) and Welsh detective Janie Mallowan (Gwyneth Keyworth) is back and John has a new goatee and girlfriend. Janie isn't too happy about him dating her mum, but they are soon reunited as an unlikely detective duo when a man doing community service is found dead at an outdoor rave site.

Janie Mallowan (Gwyneth Keyworth) has been promoted to detective inspector and is wondering if her seniority means she can no longer call herself J-Dog. She remains charming but also goofy and tactless; at one point, she complains about a teabag being left in a cuppa made for her by the wife of a recent murder victim.

It's heartbreaking to share that our marriage is coming to an end. This is not the outcome I hoped for, and I entered this relationship with deep love, commitment, and the intention of building a lasting life together. As time went on, it became clear that we were growing in different directions. I poured my whole heart into this marriage and wanted it to work until the very end, but lasting marriages require more than love alone.

"Everyone in that scene has been on 'Outlander' since day one. They are part of the fabric of our show. They are the reason that it is what it is," she said. "They imbue it with their heart and soul every day." Balfe realized something when she re-watched the scene. "My new theory is that Diana (Gabaldon) is Claire, her husband Doug is Jamie, and she is living in plain sight as a time-traveler, because she doesn't age!"

Fan, which normally costs $10 a month, is $1.99 for the first three months when you sign up before May 26. This tier includes no ads, streaming to one device, offline viewing, 5% off select items in the Crunchyroll store, and access to new episodes shortly after they air in Japan.

Another week passes and still no news on whether Patrick Kielty will be staying on as host of The Late Late Show. His three-year contract with RTÉ, which paid him €250,000 a year, the same as director-general Kevin Bakhurst's salary, ended with the final show of the 2025/26 season on May 1.

So when they're offered lucrative deals involving generative AI, Valerie and Deborah are receptive. Their instinct to look out for themselves means that neither is particularly moved by pleas from those around her to save writers' jobs. Instead, they discover a consequence of the technology that surprises them both: AI may offer shortcuts, but it also eliminates the human collaboration that helps them produce their best possible work.

AMC+ recently announced that the 2005-2022 run of Doctor Who will be available on the streamer starting on June 11. This is huge, as those 176 episodes were completely unavailable on streaming services after they were removed from HBO Max, and it didn't seem like that would change any time soon.

Like so many episodes on this monumental season, this felt a bit like busywork, just two more boxes to check off on the way to the end. I did like the format, which was like Survivor on fast-forward - two challenges, two tribals, two eliminations - especially because they were both more straightforward than driving down a highway in Iowa corn country. The only hitch in anyone's game was when Tiffany won immunity, and then they needed an alternative plan, but other than that, it was just smart Survivor players making the safe moves.

HDMI ARC or HDMI Audio Return Channel was introduced into the HDMI specification (in this case HDMI 1.4) in 2009 with a specific purpose: simplifying and improving the experience of getting audio from your TV to a speaker. Historically, soundbars and other audio equipment have used optical cables to transfer digital audio, which meant introducing yet another cable to your TV or routing everything through a dedicated, expensive home theater receiver. ARC lets an HDMI port do the heavy lifting, eliminating the need for a separate audio cable and giving you access to the sort of high-quality audio that was previously locked behind specialized equipment.

Pedro Pascal has got the internet all in a tizzy after kissing The Late Show host Stephen Colbert. The Last of Us actor appeared on 12 May's episode of the talk show and asked for a kiss after Colbert smooched Jimmy Fallon in a recent episode during a game. Pascal pointed to his lips before Colbert leaned in and met him. "I got jealous," the actor told the host.

Aubry Bracco is, quite clearly, our season-50 winner, and she will be remembered as a very lucky one. She is a talented Survivor player by all standards, but it's hard not to see her impending victory as a bit of a disappointment. She's been dealt a fabulous hand all season, and her success doesn't seem to be through particularly great work on her part. Instead, she's ended up in the best position possible through twists. In what should be the most epic Survivor game in history, our winner has capitalized on twists she had nothing to do with choosing.

“It is a question of perspective and narrative. It's a very powerful thing to be given a story that gives you a hero and that makes your side good,” Mazin told The Hollywood Reporter. “That is fundamental to most religions--and it is fundamental to most politics now. It creates a tribalism. It's 'us versus them,' and it happens very, very quickly. What I loved about the story of the game, which is in line with what I am pursuing on the show, is that it is not that simple.”

Netflix picked up the rights to three more NFL contests amid government scrutiny over the migration of games from free TV to streaming. The NFL's first-ever regular season game in Melbourne, Australia, featuring the Los Angeles Rams and the San Francisco 49ers, will stream Sept. 10 on Netflix, the company Wednesday announced at its upfront presentation in New York. Netflix will present another NFL game first on Nov. 25 with a Thanksgiving eve game between the Rams and the Green Bay Packers at SoFi Stadium.

Because of the allegations, Good Omens Season 3 was cut short and Gaiman stepped away from its production, while other Gaiman projects were quietly and quickly concluded or shelved. Unlike some people who have weathered such accusations, cancellation is the appropriate word to use here. Gaiman's first experience wit

Episode 7 packs another huge punch by eliminating one of The Boys themselves. Frenchie asks Sister Sage for help with his experiments on Kimiko. Amazon Prime Video Episode 7 juggles all sorts of storylines, including Samuel L. Jackson lending his voice to a shark, Daveed Diggs demonstrating why he has a Tony award by singing as Oh Father, Homelander casually making Ashley Barrett president, and Jordan and Marie from Gen V finally proving a little useful.

Ahsoka Season 2 was once tentatively slated for a release in 2026, but that window has since been pushed back a full year. Dawson announced a new release date for the series at Disney's Upfront showcase on May 12, 2026. Per the actress, Ahsoka is slated to return "early in 2027."

Despite veering off course and setting itself firmly beyond the timeline of the games, the Fallout TV show has been one of the most resounding successes of Hollywood's current love affair with the video game adaptation. Despite complaints levied at properties such as Netflix's Devil May Cryshow or Zach Cregger's upcoming Resident Evil film for taking detours from the source material, Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet's original story set in the Fallout universe has been met with critical praise and love from the fanbase, and it has managed to do it all with a wholly new cast and a mostly original story riffing on the games.
