Peacock has given a straight-to-series order to Dungeon Crawler Carl. Chris Yost is on board as writer and executive producer on the live-action adaptation. Most headlines are calling him the Thor: Ragnarok guy. That’s fair, but barely scratches the surface. Peacock greenlit the show, which comes from Universal Global Television and Seth MacFarlane‘s Fuzzy Door [...]

Netflix has canceled The Boroughs after only one season. The show is the Duffer Brothers’ spiritual successor to their series-turned-cultural phenomenon Stranger Things. Taking the concept of kids dealing with the supernatural, and flipping it to focus on some seniors dealing with the unknown. This decision comes despite a writers’ room being opened and rumblings [...]

How Do Survivor Winners Spend Their Money?

Breana Ceballos — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 14:01:04 +0000

One thing I love doing with my husband is watching Survivor. Jeff Probst has a special place in this house. It started when we first got married and we’ve since collected a handful of other Survivor fans to play a game filled with points, picks and winners/losers. Think of it like a fantasy football league [...]

Dame Helen Mirren Sets Record Straight on Tom Hardy

Heath Andrews — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:06:37 +0000

MobLand is the kind of show where just the cast alone makes you take notice. Pierce Brosnan, Helen Mirren, and Tom Hardy; those names carry gravitas. Tie them all together in a show about a London crime family, and you’ve got great television. You also apparently get a lot of great drama off the screen. [...]

FX Releases Image of Upcoming Show Based on Awful, Stupid, Novel

Heath Andrews — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 13:56:16 +0000

Some authors strike gold consistently. Some find it, lose it, find it again. I would consider Bret Easton Ellis to be in that second group. His first three novels, Less Than Zero, The Rules of Attraction, and American Psycho, are all wonderfully strong. After that, it gets…messy. I’m not sure it’s possible if it could [...]

Steven Kane is challenging one of the biggest points of friction in contemporary television.
