Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

The Gen V producers have confirmed that they will not recast Chance Perdomo’s character Andre Anderson following the young actor’s untimely death earlier this year. They are starting production this month, apparently, so it will be interesting to see how they work around the loss of one of their leads.

Hasan Minaj is jokingly — but also not — taking credit for bringing Jon Stewart back to The Daily Show, and he kinda has a point?

There was a roast of Tom Brady on Netflix last night that I completely forgot about/did not care about. But it made a lot of news this morning in part because Brady was willing to sit through a bunch of jokes about his former marriage to Gisele but did not tolerate a joke at the expense of Robert Kraft:

“Don’t say that shit again”

All of the NewsRadio cameos you forgot happened because you never watched NewsRadio because you were too young to watch NewsRadio. (To those of you for whom that actually applies, you can watch NewsRadio on Roku for free, which I strongly urge you to do.)

Maria Shriver and Patrick Schwarzenegger appeared on Shark Tank looking for the Sharks to invest in their protein bar business and fans were like, “WAIT, ISN’T SHE A KENNEDY AND ISN’T HE ALSO A KENNEDY AND A SCHWARZENEGGER SO WHY ARE THEY ASKING FOR MONEY?”

BREAKING: Reality producers pulled some shady shit. According to Jojo Siwa, the producers of the Dance Moms: The Reunion special tried to get Siwa and the other women to talk to Abby Lee Miller to stir up some shit. Shocking. I’m shocked.

Kristi Noem can’t stop fantasizing about killing dogs.

I have a lot to say about Jeannie Epper. Most of all, I loved her. I always felt that we understood and appreciated one another.
