Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Ross Duffer has released the runtimes of the upcoming Stranger Things episodes, and with one 83-minute-long exception, most are about an hour long, nowhere near the 90-minute to 2-hour runtimes that Puck News had previously reported. Honestly, it makes the cost of each episode even more insane.

We have some details on the upcoming VisionQuest series at Disney+, and yes, this will be the conclusion of the trilogy that began with WandaVision.

Shonda Rhimes has no idea how to end Grey’s Anatomy. 

Rockmond Dunbar, former 9-1-1 actor, will get his day in court, suing Disney after they fired him for refusing to get the COVID vaccine. He claims he was discriminated for his religious beliefs, having joined a “church” founded by a New Jersey chiropractor, whose four tenets are about not taking medicine. Disney claims that Dunbar, despite being a member of this church, received multiple steroid, testosterone, and chemo drugs. So.

Media outlets, including The New York Times, The Atlantic, CNN, and ~checks notes~ NewsMax (!) are refusing to sign the Pentagon’s press policy that would restrict journalists’ abilities to do their jobs. In fact, the only outlet that has signed the policy is OANN, lol.

There have reportedly been three new developments in the Amy Bradley case which was explored on the Netflix documentary, Amy Bradley Is Missing, if you’re curious.

New reality series, Guts & Glory (see below in Watch This) was filmed on The Walking Dead sets, not that the contestants knew that. 

Former Golden Bachelor Gerry Turner is not doing himself any favors here.

Feel better soon, Kristen Storm, and take care of yourself!

#MeToo

Matlock actor David Del Rio has been fired from the series after his co-star Leah Lewis accused him of sexual assault last month.

Lewis posted on Instagram a photo of herself with her mother with the caption, “Mom is here. We’re moving forward in love and strength. I’m in good hands. Thank you to everybody for any kind of support and care. Truly, we’re moving forward in strength. Key word, strength. Let that be the takeaway.”

Soon after, Del Rio’s wife, Katherine Del Rio, posted a zoomed-in photo of Lewis’ face with the caption “This is the most disturbing human being I have ever met.” She deleted the post soon after and posted a photo of herself with her mother with the caption, “Mom is here. We’re moving forward in love and strength after what Leah did to our family. Thank you all for the love and support!” MA’AM. I suspect your husband’s lawyers might have something to say about all of this.

Author Michael Wolff claims Jeffrey Epstein showed him pictures of President Sex Pest with topless young women sitting on his lap.

Former BBC DJ Tim Westwood was charged with four counts of rape.

NFL player and Cardi B’s boyfriend, Stefon Diggs, has been sued for assault by his ex-girlfriend, Mulan Hernandez, here in Houston.

Actor Malcolm Barrett will not be facing sexual assault charges. 

Arianne Zucker has settled her sexual harassment lawsuit against Days of Our Lives‘ Ken Corday and Albert Alarr.

If you or someone you know has experienced sexual assault, you can call the National Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673), which routes the caller to their nearest sexual assault service provider. You can also search for your local center here.
