Pamela Anderson is still pissed at Seth Rogen for Pam & Tommy and would like an apology, please.
We’ve all joined The Pitt bandwagon.
Shaq is out here flirting with our Houston reporters.
After 14 years of helming Star Wars and bringing it into the modern era of streaming and film, Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down as the president of Lucasfilm. Stay tuned: it will be interesting to see what happens next.

CBS News being a mouthpiece for the administration and ICE? Shocking. I’m shocked.

- Amadeus, a Sky series, has been acquired by Starz.
- An untitled thriller starring and produced by Dakota Fanning has been ordered at Apple TV.

- Netflix and Sony have reached a deal, making Netflix the first streaming home of Sony’s movies.
Casting News

Mark Your Calendar
- The Super Bowl Halftime Show will take place on February 8 on NBC, and for some reason (can’t imagine why) this trailer made me emotional:

- Hidden Assets returns on Acorn TV on January 19.
