It is significant that the new Paramount regime's first move was to prise Stranger Things creators Matt and Ross Duffer away from Netflix. And Netflix, of course, have made their billions by upending the traditional pitch-session-to-cinema pipeline that had sustained the film industry for decades. They have signed up legions of the classiest directors, hogged nearly all the audience-friendly documentaries and premiered one water-cooler series after another.

In a vacuum, the logline for Netflix's latest series "The Abandons" is gangbusters: An old-school oater set in the 1850s, created by Kurt "Sons of Anarchy" Sutter, starring Gillian Anderson and Lena Headey as two mama bears pitting their respective clans against each other in a classic Hatfields vs. McCoy scenario. Sutter, after all, loves an outlaw almost as much as he loves the innate melodrama of found families clashing against the values of modernity out in the wilderness.

The visualised podcast, which is hosted by Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards, currently releases three episodes a week but will run daily on Netflix throughout the World Cup. The deal marks the streamer's first significant foray into football coverage and an expansion of its podcast portfolio, which is seen as an effort to rival YouTube. Lineker said the deal was a "fantastic opportunity for the three of us to do what we love - talk football every day - but on a truly global stage".

So, on the eve of Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery arriving on the streaming service, Netflix has released "Forks Out," a new sketch in which Detective Beignet Blanc - obviously riffing on Daniel Craig 's signature role as Benoit Blanc - arrives just in time to solve a dastardly crime: Who ate Cookie Monster's triple berry pie?

Jurors can expect to hear a rollicking Hollywood tale featuring a bidding war (a half-dozen streamers, including Amazon, had vied for the project's rights) and at least one celebrity (Keanu Reeves was an early investor, according to the New York Times.) They'll likely see raw footage from Rinsch's dystopian, AI-themed thriller, "White Horse," turning a federal courtroom in Manhattan into the project's first public screening venue. And they'll hear extensive details of Rinsch's spending - with what prosecutors contend was Netflix's money - on cars, watches, clothing, luxury rentals, and those two very pricey premium mattresses.

"Born with an insatiable drive for stardom and a knack for spotting talent, Combs made a quick ascent through the ranks of the music industry with Bad Boy Entertainment and was crucial in bringing hip-hop to the pop masses and launching the careers of dozens of generation-defining artists like The Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige, Jodeci, and Danity Kane," reads the synopsis. "But along the way ... something darker began to color his ambitions."

"not to sing these songs at school out of respect for those who find the themes at odds with their faith."

YouTuber Jake Paul will face the greatest test of his rookie boxing career against former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Dubbed Judgment Day, the pair will put on the surprising fight in a sanctioned, professional heavyweight bout over eight three-minute rounds. "Whether you like it or not, I'm here to do massive numbers, have big fights and break every record while keeping cool, calm and collected," said Joshua.

Wall Street should be worried about Netflix, as YouTube has become an industry giant. The Alphabet Inc. ( NASDAQ: GOOGL) division just pressured Walt Disney Co. ( NYSE: DIS) for a better deal to have its streaming channels available on YouTube. The standoff did not last long. Industry experts said Disney had to agree to YouTube's terms, for the most part.

Another one of Rockstar's greatest hits is coming Netflix. On December 4th you'll be able to play Red Dead Redemption and it's zombified standalone DLC Undead Nightmare for free as long as you have a Netflix subscription. The news broke when prolific video game news hound Wario64 found listings for the game on the iOS and Android store. And it seems like Netflix isn't the only one that'll let you ride horses with John Marsten.

Davis's former partner, Courtney Rossel, filed a civil lawsuit in Miami-Dade County accusing the lightweight champion of battery, aggravated battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Miami Gardens police confirmed they are investigating the alleged incident, which Rossel says occurred at the strip club where she works. She was granted a restraining order shortly afterwards. Most Valuable Promotions, Paul's company, and Netflix scrapped the show soon after the lawsuit became public.

When Amy Reinhard, who oversees the ad business, introduced the MAV metric during a press briefing, she framed it as a more accurate read of how people watch the streamer's ad tier - often together on a TV. The move from monthly active users (MAUs) to MAVs, she said, was about being clever about audience behavior and being transparent to the market by providing advertisers with the methodology of how they determine reach.

Apple has no plans to follow suit. During a recent interview with Screen International, Apple executive Eddy Cue said that the company currently has no plans to introduce an ad-supported tier on Apple TV. Cue, however, left the door open for Apple to reverse course in the future. "I don't want to say no forever," Cue said, "but there are no plans. If we can stay aggressive with our pricing, it's better for consumers not to get interrupted with ads."

"In Your Dreams," a new animated feature from Netflix, is a colorful movie filled with imaginative sights: a world of living breakfast food, a flying bed, a gigantic sand castle in which the legendary Sandman resides. But like the best children's movies, the actual story is grounded in Earth: The main characters, Stevie (Jolie Hoang-Rappaport) and Elliot (Elias Janssen) are ordinary suburban children whose parents (Simu Liu and Cristin Milioti) are dealing with financial trouble that's straining their marriage.

Netflix ( NFLX) announced a new platform metric on Wednesday, stating in a blog post that its $7.99 ad tier, now three years old, has reached "critical scale in all markets," with ads on its platform reaching more than 190 million monthly active viewers (MAVs) in October. The new metric encompasses members who have watched at least one minute of ads on Netflix per month. The number is then multiplied by the estimated average number of people per household, as determined from Netflix's first-party research.
