This is also a great opportunity for those who missed Schitt's Creek during its initial run on the CBC in Canada and Pop TV in the U.S. Created by Eugene and Dan Levy, the series follows temporarily embarrassed millionaire video-store magnate Johnny Rose (Eugene Levy), his high-maintenance soap-opera star wife Moira (O'Hara), and their idiot kids David (Dan Levy) and Alexis (Annie Murphy).

And Prue Leith's leaving Bake Off. Let us focus, then, on the few, brief bright spots we can if we really squint hard into the darkness see. There's microplastics maybe not poisoning our every organ as thoroughly as we thought. There's Gwyneth Paltrow announcing that she loves a 6pm dinner and early beddy-byes. That's not quite how she put it, but that's what she meant.

During a Q&A with Judd Apatow at the premiere of documentary Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man!, Brooks said he was relieved Carl Reiner who died in July 2020 at the age of 98 wasn't alive to experience the murder, which grandson Nick Reiner, 36, is accused of committing on Dec. 14 at their Los Angeles home. Anyway, with Carl, with what's happened, I'm glad that he passed away when he did, comedy legend said.

The Paley Center for Media today announced the dates and first programs for PaleyFest LA 2026.

Based on Rachel Reid's novel of the same name, Heated Rivalry follows Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov (Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, respectively) as they explore a private, passionate connection when they're not facing off on the ice.

But it doesn't waste time introducing Shane and Ilya's physical chemistry through intimate scenes - the first of which arrives less than halfway into Episode 1, "Rookies."

One of my latest TV obsessions is HBO Max's The Chair Company. Co-created by Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin (of SNL glory), the quirky comedy thriller stars Tim as Ron Trosper, an endearing dad and property development manager who goes down a deep, deep rabbit hole investigating a wild conspiracy theory about a chair company. Yes, really.

As autumn settles in, HBO Max is embracing the Halloween season with an October programming slate that delivers everything from new originals to cult horror classics. The streaming platform is turning its focus toward fright, nostalgia, and cinematic depth, offering an unmatched mix of films, docuseries, and premieres that perfectly capture the spirit of the season. This year's headliner is IT: Welcome to Derry, the much-anticipated spinoff of Stephen King's legendary horror universe, set decades before the events of IT.

HBO Max subscribers will no longer be able to watch CNN from the streaming platform as of November 17, Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) informed customers today. After this date, HBO Max subscribers will still be able to watch some CNN content, including shows and documentaries, on demand.

"I guess I don't really care. And the reason I don't care is because it has been so enormously successful, and the connections it has made with audiences have been very meaningful."

The focus is clear: this is about people as much as it is about crime.

The comedian contends with catastrophic current events—climate emergencies, COVID, the gradual rise of authoritarianism—while addressing difficulties in his personal life.

"To be honest, while I was watching it and seeing the actors sign on for it, I don't know that I would do that. I'm more cautious."

HBO Max has faced ridicule over its rebranding strategy, recently shifting from HBO Max to Max, then back to HBO Max, causing new branding headaches.

The Warner Bros. Discovery streamer has suffered as much of an identity crisis as anyone in terms of its name and aesthetic (RIP purple forever).
