Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Savannah Guthrie returned to The Today Show this morning: “Well, here we go, ready or not. Let’s do the news.”

Looks like we have our The Late Show with Stephen Colbert replacement, and it’s … Byron Allen’s Comics Unleashed series that already airs after The Late Show. Great. I guess it was super cheap.

The Studio will address Catherine O’Hara’s death in the upcoming season.

“It has been an unbelievable challenge,” Goldberg said of continuing the show without O’Hara. “Obviously emotionally, dealing with the loss, but also when it comes to the show itself. We wrote it for her to be there. We had it all set and the shock waves permeate throughout the entire new season. It’s been difficult. You worded it better than we could — she was the anchor and now the anchor is gone.”

Rogen added, “If anything, we’re acknowledging the idea that we are a little anchorless. But, honestly, that is a part of life and what we all experience. And so while we try to not dwell too much on heavy themes in this show, they will be there in this second season. We are not ignoring it.”

Theater owners are not thrilled about the Paramount/Warner Bros. merger, and who can blame them?

Wait, so if she is no longer a Mormon, and she’s not a wife, can she still be on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?

Vanderpump Villa will edit out Dakota Mortensen from the upcoming season following the domestic violence incident between himself and Taylor Frankie Paul which led to her season of The Bachelorette being canceled.

This story about how the young actors of The Summer I Turned Pretty were bullied by Amazon into shitty contracts is infuriating, not because pretty actors deserve to make more money than other people, but because this is a genuine labor issue. Additionally, it shines a light on how famous actors like James Van Der Beek and Eric Dane can die in debt despite being household names.

The fourth season finale of The Boys was thisclose to being yanked by Prime Video … and understandably, as the episode involved a presidential assassination plot and premiered one week after President False Flag was “shot” in Pennsylvania.

Sounds like this upcoming season of The Boys is going to be prophetic AGAIN. 

The Prime Video series creator and showrunner revealed that the supervillain has “the craziest line” the writers could imagine in episode 7, which has “already happened” in real life, despite Season 5 being written before the 2024 presidential election.

“I’m totally bummed out to say we wrote it before the election,” he told TV Guide. “It sounds super naive now, but I swear the plan was, ‘Let’s write a 1984 version of what creeping authoritarianism looks like in America,’ and maybe everyone will be like, ‘Whew, we really dodged a bullet.’ But instead, we got hit with the bullet.”

Part 37 in “The Cast of The Boys Continue to Warn Us.”

Bryan Cranston gets it: “Comedy is essential right now. It’s not even important. It’s essential,” says Cranston. “Because it’s a break from the bombardment of non-stop information. People who have the news on 24 hours a day in their homes, I don’t think they realise the damage they’re doing. You might as well make a house full of asbestos or just have radiation constantly emitting through your house.”

(Note: I have the news on in my house practically 24 hours a day, whaddya gonna do.)

Sterling K. Brown explains the economics of streaming TV versus broadcast/cable, and why streamers usually only have 8-10 episodes per season. (And it makes perfect sense.)

Bill Lawrence is promising that season four of Shrinking will feature the EXACT same cast (I suppose to address concerns that Harrison Ford isn’t returning) while saying that they are ending the three-season story that they set out to tell, so season four will be a “new one.” I’m reading this as season four will be a time jump, but we’ll see.

Michael Patrick King, And Just Like That’s … showrunner, thinks the series will “age well.” LOL, OK.

Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette has been an enormous hit for Hulu, with some 65 million hours having been streamed.

And now I know where the Johnny Carson Tonight Show desk I had the privilege to sit behind is now residing, and you can go sit behind it, too!

Steve Kroft has some feelings about working on 60 Minutes, and thinks he wouldn’t have done it again if he were given the chance. OK.

OK FINE MAYBE I’LL RECAP THIS SEASON.

If you like a good ghost story, you should check out the Uncanny podcast. 

Hoping Tori Spelling and her brood are OK. 

Happy Easter from your perfectly sane, not demented, and very Christian President:
