Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News
Sounds like the next White Lotus might be set in the South of France.
We have BAFTA winners, including: Slow Horses, Baby Reindeer, The Traitors, Wolf Hall, and, somehow, Shrinking.
HOLD UP: That Greg Gutfeld game show where they isolate people for 90 days and then ask them to determine which headlines are real — a terrific concept, I begrudgingly admit — the prize is HOW MUCH? You leave your family, your job, your life for THREE MONTHS, and all you can win is HOW MUCH?
Lea Michele has finally put to bed that hilarious rumor that she can’t read.
Busy Philipps is the only woman left standing in late night, and she thinks that’s bullshit.
In honor of Duster, Josh Holloway’s new series debuting this week, here’s some fan’s argument that Sawyer is the real hero of Lost. (I mean, he’s not, and I can explain why, but why bother?)
I never know what is real with The Rehearsal — we’re meant to believe all of it is to some degree — but some of the things Fielder pulls off on the show are so batshit insane, I sometimes refuse to believe we’re not dealing with a script and actors. But apparently, some of it is real, because this woman who participated in “Wings of Voice” in the second episode is breaking her NDA to talk about how disappointed and shocked she was to learn it was all fake (and to milk some attention out of it, somehow, dammit). “I’m not sure if he’s a psychopath or a genius,” she says. “He might be showing us our flaws through him.” FAIR.
Morgan Wallen explains that SNL walk-off: “I was just ready to go home. I been there all week.” Sir, that is no excuse for being rude.
BravoCon is returning, and will be held in Las Vegas in November at Caesar’s Palace because Lisa Vanderpump’s hotel isn’t open yet.
What it’s really like to eat at Top Chef‘s Restaurant Wars. (In short: there’s a lot of waiting around; the food is fine but not the best you’ve ever had; and the judges are seemingly hamming it up for the cameras.)
Ramona Singer posing with a controversial conservative “hero” is the most predictable thing she’s ever done.

America’s Most Wanted: Missing Persons: Season finale. 7 p.m., Fox
Greg Gutfeld’s What Did I Miss?: I am so mad at the concept of this game show — for being genuinely funny, but hosted by Greg UGH Gutfeld. The idea is the contestants were isolated from January 20th until April 13th of this year, and now have to determine which headlines are real and which are fake, in this era of batshit insanity. Brilliant, god dammit. Still, that prize money, not worth it. Series premiere. Fox Nation
