“Tokyo Vice” — the crime drama that has run on Max for two seasons — has come to an end, at least for now.
The cancelation was confirmed Saturday at the PGA’s Produced By conference in Los Angeles during a panel discussion about the Ansel Elgort series and the Emmy-winning Max comedy “Hacks.” Max original programming chief Sarah Aubrey, along with “Tokyo Vice” creator and executive producer J.T. Rogers and director and executive producer Alan Poul, detailed the development of the series that was an elaborate production, much of it on the streets of Tokyo.

Christina Ricci is opening up on that scene in Showtime’s Yellowjackets finale and offering fans a small glimpse at what they can expect from season three.
Ricci’s character, Misty — spoiler alert! — accidentally killed Juliette Lewis‘ Natalie at the end of season two as the Yellowjackets continue to do what it takes to survive post-plane crash. Ricci confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that a few episodes for next season – expected to land in early 2025 – have already been shot in Canada.
“This season is going to be even more shocking and surprising than the previous seasons,” Ricci tells The Hollywood Reporter. “It’s definitely going to be brutal. But they also put a lot of comedy into it. So I think it’s just going to be… extremely Yellowjackets-y.”
The team are already missing Lewis, she confirms, describing the cast as “like sisters.” Ricci says, “We bonded and spent so much time together,...

Meghan McCain has taken aim at Jennifer Lopez on the latest episode of her Citizen McCain podcast, referring to the pop superstar as a “deeply unpleasant person.” McCain was discussing Lopez’s career with her co-host Miranda Wilkins and media personality and television producer Carlos King on the podcast, where the former The View host opened up about her negative experiences with the “Jenny From The Block” singer. “I, too, share similar negative stories that the entire world does,” McCain said of Lopez, per Entertainment Weekly. “I feel bad because we’re turning a point where there’s bullying happening to J.Lo. She just is a deeply unpleasant person.” McCain recalled meeting Lopez when she was a guest on The View back during the former’s tenure as a co-host. “She had the biggest entourage I’ve ever seen,” McCain stated. “More than Kim Kardashian and the president.

The walls are closing in for Captain Jake Anderson at the start of Season 20 of Deadliest Catch. After investing everything including his kids’ college fund, he found a lock and repossession note on the F/V Saga. The boat he helmed for a decade and served as part-owner, focusing mainly on the operation side. The timing for all this couldn’t be worse as the Red King Crab fishery was finally open again with an estimated $30 million and six-figure paydays out in the Bering Sea. With no boat at the start of the season, Anderson went to his mentor Captain Sig Hansen for guidance. This came with an opportunity to return to the F/V/ Northwestern. A humble pill to swallow for the once greenhorn who began his career aboard learning under Hansen almost 18 years ago. Here Anderson opens up about his struggles and time on the series. What does...

Bill Maher has weighed in on the viral clip of WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark being hip-checked by Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter, blasting Clark’s Indiana Fever teammates for not rushing to defend her. The Real Time host was joined by author and journalist Abigail Shrier and Reason Magazine editor-at-large Matt Welch when he aired the clip, pointing out how none of Clark’s teammates seemed bothered by the blatant foul. “See, if this was men, they’d defend each other on their same team,” Maher said on Friday’s (June 7) episode of Real Time. “I mean, men will fight from two teams, but when somebody checks you, who’s on your team, you defend that guy. I’m just saying men have their bad parts. We’re toxic. We’re dogs. Only women would do this.” “Women are catty,” the controversial host added. “Even the ones on your own team.

Spending by subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) platforms is set to hit €10 billion ($10.7 billion) in Europe’s major TV markets by the end of 2024, according to an Ampere Analysis forecast. This surpasses the investment by the region’s public and commercial broadcasters, who are grappling with fierce competition from well-funded streamers, tightened content budgets and declining viewer engagement.
Ampere’s Media Consumer behavior tracker reveals a 16% drop in viewer engagement for commercial broadcasters across Europe’s top five markets since 2016. This slump has contributed to a nearly €1 billion decrease in the linear TV advertising market over the past decade. In response, broadcasters are pivoting towards streaming,...

Jeff Kober has thrived on playing the baddie for much of his long career. The prolific actor has almost 150 credits to his name with stops on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The X Files, Walker, Texas Ranger, The Walking Dead, New Girl, and NCIS: Los Angeles to name a few. Then there are more regular roles like Jacob Hale Jr. on Sons of Anarchy, Sgt. Dodger Winslow on China Beach, and most recently, on General Hospital where he won an Emmy for his portrayal of shady Cyrus Renault. Next up is the pool shark thriller Break, where he takes on the role of pool hall hustler “The Hand” Jimmy. In the film, he looks to stand in the way of Eli (Daniel Weiss), the hotshot son of a former rival, from honoring his legendary dad and former rival’s legacy. Here the veteran actor talks about the project and reminisces about some of his favorite parts.

John Goodman is an Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor with a legendary track record across film and television, but he still struggles with self-doubt about his career. Appearing on the latest episode of the SmartLess podcast, Goodman opened up to hosts Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes about his life and career, revealing he “practically had a nervous breakdown” over the past year and is now coming out the other side of it. “It’s much different now. I feel like I’m still learning,” Goodman said (per the New York Post), noting how he lacks the same motivation in acting as he did when he was younger. “The last couple of years have been goofy for me because I’ve been trying to be good — and it doesn’t work that way.” “You know, like planning things way too much,” he added.

Kelly Clarkson has a long history with American Idol, being the show’s first-ever winner back in 2002, so could she return to the series as part of the judging panel? After former Idol judge Katy Perry said her farewell to the show at the end of Season 22 on May 19, 2024, there is now an empty seat next to Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie. While it was announced that ABC was in talks with “high-profile stars” to replace the outgoing Perry, no official announcement has been made as of yet. Speaking at the Daytime Emmy Awards on Friday night (June 7), Entertainment Tonight asked Clarkson if she would consider stepping in as Perry’s replacement. “I can’t do that, only because I promised my kids. I was like, ‘I wanna be there as much as I possibly can,'” the “Since U Been Gone” hitmaker said. “And it would put me in L.

Jeopardy! super-champ Adriana Harmeyer won her eighth consecutive game on Friday night (June 7), marking the longest and highest-earning streak in over a year. Talking to host Ken Jennings early in Friday’s episode, the archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana, revealed her secret weapon for success. After Jennings pointed out how Harmeyer has worn the same necklace for every game, the champ explained, “It’s a cameo necklace that was given to me by my grandmother.” “She loved and collected cameos in all forms and was also a big game show fan,” Harmeyer continued, noting how her late grandmother inspired her to come on the show. “I spent a lot of time watching Jeopardy! and other programs at her side,” she shared, adding that “it’s very possible” that without her grandmother, she wouldn’t be on Jeopardy! “That’s great that you’ve got that memento,” Jennings replied. However, Harmeyer...

[Warning: The following contains Major spoilers for Interview With the Vampire Season 2 Episode 5, “Don’t Be Afraid, Just Start the Tape.” It also contains discussion of suicide and domestic violence.] Interview With the Vampire has revealed its version of the San Francisco interview. Louis and Daniel’s 1973 meeting serves as the setting for Anne Rice‘s original novel, but the AMC series changed the premise by setting its main interview in Dubai in 2022, 49 years after the first try went awry. Eric Bogosian‘s Daniel Molloy has been experiencing memory flashes to that fateful encounter throughout Season 2, ones that have made him distrust Armand (Assad Zaman) more and more. But it’s what he and Louis (Jacob Anderson) didn’t remember that are the most revealing and tragic developments. TV Insider connected with the stars and creator of the episode, the first episode filmed for Season 2, to discuss how it was made and how it changes the course of the season.

On paper, Presumed Innocent might sound like your standard courtroom thriller… but there’s no one you’d rather have writing one of those than David E. Kelley. The man has been cranking out quality TV legal dramas since the days of L.A. Law, and the mind behind Ally McBeal and The Practice delivers once again as writer and showrunner of this new Apple TV+ series, premiering this Wednesday. (I’ve seen seven of the eight episodes.) Kelley takes a familiar premise — one that’s quite similar to Paramount+’s far inferior Fatal Attraction remake, in fact — and spins it into a sturdy,...

Having Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn as your parents might sound like a dream to some, and Wyatt Russell certainly loves his folks, but acting with them has always been something he’s been hesitant to do — especially once his dad’s return to the screen coincided with his own rise. Sure, he played a younger version of his Kurt’s character in the 1998 sci-fi thriller “Soldier,” but doing the same for the Apple TV+ television adventure series “Monarch: Legacy of Monsters” involved an entirely different level of commitment. In the show, they play a rough, but reliable U.S. Army Colonel at two contrasting points in his life, yet in both time periods, he’s similarly tasked with facing down the Titans who threaten to destroy the world. In creating this dichotomy, Kurt and Wyatt didn’t really feel the need to prepare together, but in a recent interview with Variety,...

And while no two stories were the same, everyone seemed to agree that great art happens at the intersection of extensive preparation and serendipitous timing.

With millions of slurs potentially on the line, captains are in a battle against time and other fishermen in a competitive derby-style race. It’s an environment Captain Sig Hansen is all too familiar with as fans following him on the show since its inception. Bringing even more nostalgia to the start of the milestone year is having Jake Anderson aboard the F/V Northwestern again. Hansen extended the olive branch when Anderson found himself a man without a vessel days before the season was set to begin. His protege lost the F/V Saga, which he captained for a decade and held an ownership stake in after honing his skills on the Northwestern almost 18 years ago. We caught up with Hansen to reflect on the longevity of the show and the...

Brian Tee hasn’t entirely stayed away from the Windy City since he left Chicago Med in 2022. Following his departure from the NBC drama, where he played Dr. Ethan Choi for seven-and-a-half seasons, the actor has returned to Med twice to direct episodes. But what about reprising his role for a guest spot?
“There’s always conversation [about] returning on screen,” Tee told TVLine at the inaugural Gotham TV Awards on June 4. The actor was in attendance to help present the Spotlight Tribute to Lulu Wang, creator of Prime Video’s Expats, on which Tee starred opposite Nicole Kidman.

With a career that’s ranged 33 years — over three quarters of his life — Jake Gyllenhaal has covered nearly every type of character, genre, and form, but in a recent interview in The Hollywood Reporter, he said he’s now focused on taking on roles that “freak me out a bit.” Whether that means getting cut and learning to give and take a beating for Doug Liman’s “Road House” remake or wading through the moral and ethical murk of murder and infidelity in the upcoming Apple TV+ mini-series “Presumed Innocent,” Gyllenhaal is game for a challenge.
“The feeling I want to have is, can I do it?” said Gyllenhaal. “That it’s going to ask of me things that I don’t know about myself yet.”

In Lulu Wang’s “Expats,” Sarayu Blue’s Hilary is seemingly perfect, put together and polished.
On the surface, the American expat Hilary presents herself as a control freak. From her surroundings to her makeup and neutral wardrobe, it’s all pristine. That facade slowly unravels as her layers are peeled back in the Prime Video six-part limited series. Behind closed doors, her marriage is falling apart, and her husband is cheating on her.
Costume designer Malgosia Turzanska used “aggressive neutrals” when it came to building Hilary’s wardrobe. Her goal was to use costumes as camouflage and protective armor for the character.

A team of three contestants stand side by side, overlooking an enormous interactive bridge that can only be crossed by stepping on the correct answers within a category in Beat the Bridge, a brand new game show premiering June 10 on Game Show Network. Each correct response nets them more money, up to a total of $15,000, with a shot at bonus cash if they all make a successful crossing. But if they want to take their winnings home? One team member will have to return back across the board in a 90-second speed round. “It’s [the players] against the bridge,” says host Cameron Mathison of the game show based on the British series Bridge of Lies. “And I’m guiding them along.” Emceeing isn’t new for the Daytime Emmy-nominated Mathison, who, in addition to his roles on soaps General Hospital and All ...

Brie Larson’s Elizabeth Zott is a woman who doesn’t conform to society’s expectations. In AppleTV+’s “Lessons in Chemistry,” Larson plays a brilliant young woman who dreams of being a chemist in 1950s America, a time when society believed a woman’s place is in the home and not in a science lab. She eventually does make it into the Hastings Research Institute to realize her life’s ambition, despite her male colleagues dismissing her with comments about her need to smile more.

Michael Mosley, a prominent medical journalist and TV presenter, has died. The 67-year-old had been missing on the Greek isle Symi since Wednesday, June 5, prompting a large-scale search. Greek officials said on Sunday, June 9, that Mosley’s body was found on a beach in Agia Marina, according to The New York Times. Mosley arrived on Symi on Tuesday, June 4, for a weeklong stay on the island. The following day, Mosley told friends he’d walk the two miles from Agios Nikolaos beach back to his accommodations in the town of Symi. When he didn’t return, firefighters, police officers, and volunteers searched the area, and a spokeswoman for the Greek police said it was Symi mayor Eleftherios Papakalodoukas who spotted Mosley’s body, the Times reports. Trained as a doctor, Mosley produced the Emmy-nominated BBC series The Human Face, hosted the popular BBC health podcast Just One Thing, and contributed...

Whether it’s concern that AI will make some animation jobs obsolete or replace humans altogether, there’s discussion about what it will mean not only for artistry but also workflow.

U.S. Heartland fans wanting to watch Season 17 on Netflix will have to wait a while. The Canadian family drama’s 16th season started streaming on Netflix in the United States on June 1, but Season 17 won’t hit the streaming service any time this year. Up Faith & Family, a commercial-free subscription streaming service, said in a press release that it will be the exclusive U.S. home of Homeland Season 17 — and that Netflix won’t be able to add Season 17 to its U.S. streaming library — until early 2025. Season 17 debuted on Up Faith & Family on April 25, and the platform rolled out the season’s first five episodes weekly.

The military drama premiered in 2017 and aired four full seasons on CBS before moving, five episodes into the fifth, over to the streaming service.

[Warning: This post contains spoilers about the newest episode of Mayor of Kingstown, “Guts.] The title of the newest episode of Mayor of Kingstown couldn’t be more on the nose — or, to be precise, other parts of the body. Thanks to some poisoned drugs, several inmates connected to Bunny (Tobi Bamtefa) fall violently ill and die with their insides seeping to the outside. When Mike (Jeremy Renner) tries to investigate the source of the drug poisoning in “Guts”, Carney’s (Lane Garrison) decision to let him stroll on through the backdoor puts him at odds with the warden, Kareem (Michael Beach). Kareem has been struggling with the scars of his trauma during the prison riot, which led him to violently murder one inmate, but Carney has no patience for his pain. The two exchange words in the episode, and Carney makes it clear that he’s fully in the tank for Mike McLusky’s way of running things. About...

Prime Video’s “The Boys” isn’t a show that pulls its punches. The hit television series is in fact known to be gratuitous in every regard, from its depiction of sex and violence to its timely socio-economic and political commentary. But for all the fun showrunner Eric Kripke and his staff have putting “The Boys” together, there’s also a great importance put on using the superhero narrative to capture something bigger about who we are as people and where we are as a country. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Kripke said oftentimes, their writing parallels real life in eerie ways.
“Sometimes we feel like we’re Satan’s writers room,” said Kripke, addressing how the current season, revolving around a tense presidential election, may hit too close to home for some.
“When Seth [Rogen] and Evan [Goldberg] and I took it out to pitch, it was 2016,” Kripke said later,...

Love Is Blind is merely a TV show about TV relationships. Showtime’s Couples Therapy, however, is one big psychoanalysis session bursting with real vulnerability that’ll make you want to ditch your golden goblets forever.
Netflix’s social experiment sets up singles in adjoined rooms — called pods — in hopes that they might fall in love without the distraction of physical appearance, and ultimately forces couples to walk down the aisle where they’ll either say “I do,” or walk away from each other forever. But the series gets bogged down by pretend people and exchanges completely devoid of flirtation,...
