Heartbreak comes frequently for Friday the 13th fans. The franchise has had a rough ride over the last couple decades, getting bogged down in legal issues and creative false stars. We get a video game, then the rug is pulled out from under it when it’s just getting started. A movie almost happens, then gets scrapped just weeks before filming was scheduled to begin. The Crystal Lake TV show was just a couple months from filming, then the showrunner gets fired. But worse than all of that is the fact that we’re in a time when actors from our beloved films are passing away very often. Just last month, we lost Erich Anderson, who was in the cast of Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter. Now Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI director Tom McLoughlin has broken the news that Whitney Rydbeck, who played the ill-fated paintball player Roy in his film,...

Netflix is ready to tee off with Will Ferrell.
In his first scripted TV comedy series, Ferrell will star in a scripted comedy series titled Golf. The streamer has picked up 10 episodes of the series, which is co-created by Ferrell, Ramy Youssef — who will also have an onscreen role — and Josh Rabinowitz (Babes, Ramy, The Carmichael Show).
In Golf, Ferrell will play a fictional golf legend. Details on Youssef’s part are being kept under wraps though sources say the show isn’t a two-hander. (Netflix also stresses that Golf should be capitalized, though it’s unclear if it’s an acronym.)
Youssef and Rabinowitz, who previously teamed for Hulu’s critically praised comedy Ramy, will serve as showrunners and exec produce Golf alongside Ferrell, Jessica Elbaum and Alix Taylor for Gloria Sanchez Productions. Rian Johnson (Peacock’s Poker Face), Ram Bergman and Nena Rodrigue will exec produce for T-Street,...

Leanne Morgan’s current tour is called Just Getting Started, and the 58-year-old comedian is living up to that with a comedy series and two more specials at Netflix. The streamer has given a 16-episode order to an untitled multi-cam sitcom, headlined by Morgan in her TV acting debut and executive produced by top comedy showrunner Chuck Lorre. Additionally, Netflix has picked up two more stand-up specials from Morgan following the success of her first one, the 2023 Leanne Morgan: I’m Every Woman.
Co-created by Morgan, Lorre and Susan McMartin, the Untitled Leanne Morgan Project will follow Leanne whose life is upended when her husband of 33 years leaves her for another woman. Starting over when you’re a grandmother and in menopause isn’t exactly what she had in mind, but with the help of her family, she will navigate this new chapter with grace, dignity and jello salad.

As comedian Will Ferrell walked across the magnificent stage of The Kennedy Center to accept the greatest honor an America funny person can receive, The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, something happened that made us all remember why he is getting this prestigious honor. The award instantly slipped from Will’s hilarious fingers, shattering this legendary humorist’s bust all over the floor. An obvious gag, that was so damn fitting to what Will represents in the history of the art of doing silly stuff. Without breaking character for a second, Will hilariously tries to pick up the pieces as the world just sat back and laughed… but not laughing at him, we were laughing with him. The appeal of Will Ferrell comes from his innocent “I don’t give a f*ck” attitude that elevates simple stupid jokes to performance art. As Mr. Ferrell once said, “What I...

The last time Chuck Lorre and Charlie Sheen were co-workers was early in 2011, when the producer-actor duo were in the middle of making the eighth season of the CBS smash hit comedy Two and a Half Men. Sheen’s addiction problems flared up again, landing him in the hospital, then in rehab, and then giving a series of incendiary interviews — notably one with Alex Jones where Sheen derisively called his boss “Chaim Levine” (Lorre’s birth name is Charles Levine). Sheen was eventually fired from the show, and his character,...

Kim Kardashian is embracing developing her acting chops in the newest season of Ryan Murphy’s “American Horror Story.”
“Anytime you try something, you just have to have the intention of growing and challenging yourself,” the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star said in a behind-the-scenes teaser for the upcoming FX series’ latest season, subtitled “Delicate.” “Then you just kinda release and have fun.”
“American Horror Story: Delicate,” which premieres Wednesday, centers on actress Anna Victoria Alcott (Emma Roberts) who struggles with multiple failed attempts of IVF to achieve her dream of starting a family. “As the buzz around her recent film grows, she fears that something may be targeting her — and her pursuit of motherhood,” according to the official logline.

The first trailer for “American Horror Story: Delicate” has arrived, and Kim Kardashian is demanding to know which is more important: an Oscar or a baby?
“Do you want an Oscar? Do you want it as much as a baby?” Kardashian’s Siobhan Walsh asks Emma Roberts’ Anna Victoria Alcott.
Though “American Horror Story” Season 12 has already released several unsettling and stylized teasers, this clip is the first look into what this new season is about. Based on Danielle Valentine’s book “Delicate Condition” and showrun by playwright Halley Feiffer (“I’m Gonna Pray for You So Hard”), fans already knew this season would center around a Hollywood star who’s desperate to have a child. But as she gets further and further down the path of motherhood, she starts to believe several people are trying to stop her from having this baby, including her own husband.

“American Horror Story” fans finally have their first look at series newcomers Kim Kardashian and Cara Delevingne in Season 12 thanks to the first teaser for “AHS: Delicate.”
At less than 30 seconds long, the FX teaser doesn’t share much about the show, though it’s clear that this season will have something to do with children and motherhood. The video shows three stars donned in bright white wigs removing their glasses: series alum Emma Roberts, model Cara Delevingne and reality star, socialite and model Kim Kardashian. In between these glamorous revelations, groups of women with long white hair ritualistically dance and a cradle ominously moves as “Rock-a-bye Baby” plays.
At the moment, there is no release date for this new season. The teaser only reveals that it will be coming soon.
In addition to the three aforementioned actors, “AHS: Delicate” will star Matt Czuchry (“Gilmore Girls”), Annabelle Dexter-Jones (“Succession”), Michaela Jaé Rodriguez...

Sctv alum Dave Thomas has teamed with actor and son Harrison Thomas to develop the dark comedy The Orange for the CBC and BBC Studios.
The father-son sitcom, produced by Canada’s Project 10 Productions, follows a family that witnesses a gangland bombing and is placed by The Royal Canadian Mounted Police in a witness protection program in Rye, England. Only when they reach their new U.K. home does the family realize the Mounties have been dumping all their witnesses and informants in Rye, including Canada’s most hardened criminals who are now their next-door neighbors.
Canadian comic and actor Dave Thomas and Rick Moranis played Sctv‘s and Saturday Night Live’s beer-loving McKenzie brothers during the 1980s. Their act, which was launched to mock government mandated Canadian TV content rules, was spun off into the 1983 cult comedy Strange Brew, and that year also made the late-night transition stateside to SNL.

Herb Lazarus, the veteran TV distribution executive who spent nearly 70 years in the business, including the past 27 with Carsey-Werner, died Tuesday in Los Angeles, a spokesperson for the company announced. He was 88.
At Carsey-Werner Television Distribution, where he most recently served as international TV president, Lazarus put into place massive deals globally — many still in place today — for such hits as That ’70s Show, Roseanne, The Cosby Show, 3rd Rock From the Sun, A Different World, Cybill, Grace Under Fire and Grounded for Life.

Cole Sprouse began acting when he was 6 months old and has been in the public eye ever since. While his roles came with some hefty paychecks, Sprouse also gave up a lot. Now, Sprouse is saying that he “pretty much lost everything” he made from his early roles because of his mom.
Cole Sprouse’s early career
Cole Sprouse entered the world of acting alongside his identical twin brother, Dylan. The two shared almost all of their roles.
According to IMDb, the actor, with his brother, portrayed Patrick Kelly on the television series Grace Under Fire from 1993 to 1998. Soon after that, they appeared on the big screen with Adam Sandler in the hit movie Big Daddy.
Fans will definitely recognize Sprouse as Ben Geller, the son of Ross and his ex-wife Carol on Friends, another role that was shared with his twin. They also had a part in the movie The Astronaut’s Wife.

Cole Sprouse has claimed that Hollywood “encourages the worst qualities” in actors.
The Riverdale star made his screen debut in commercials as a baby, before starring in the sitcom Grace Under Fire alongside his twin brother Dylan when they were both toddlers.
Appearing on The Diary of a CEO podcast, Sprouse opened up about his youth spent as a child star and said that many young actors got into the industry to “put food on the table”.
“I think the pressure of my upbringing really compelled me to keep doing what I am today,” he told host Steven Bartlett.
“I cannot live without the arts… without performance or expression of some kind, because truly it’s all I know and have known since I was eight months old.”
Sprouse said that he “loved being on stage” growing up, but added that he “didn’t like the s*** that came with it”.

TV stars can’t always demand the kind of high-paying gigs entertainers receive for movies. This is even more true when it comes to child actors. However, in some cases, breakout stars are able to negotiate paydays that make their peers jealous. Cole and Dylan Sprouse, the titular stars of the Disney Channel sitcom The Suite Life of Zack & Cody, certainly qualify.
Cole and Dylan Sprouse starred on ‘The Suite Life of Zack and Cody’ from 2005 to 2008
On the show, the young actors — who broke through on TV’s Grace Under Fire and the 1999 film Big Daddy — play Zack and Cody Martin. The twin brothers live in a suite at Boston’s Tipton Hotel.

The ‘90s comedy Grace Under Fire followed a family much more hardscrabble than that of Home Improvement, the sitcom it was initially paired with on ABC. The show, created by Chuck Lorre, starred Brett Butler as Grace Kelly, a single mom raising three kids, while recovering from alcoholism and an abusive marriage, with the support of her colleagues and neighbors in the fictional town of Victory, Missouri. Unfortunately, Butler was struggling with addiction in real life, dealing with Vicodin abuse off-screen. And after a curtailed fifth season, a ratings downfall, and plenty of behind-the-scenes tumult, ABC pulled the plug in 1998. “At the bloody, bitter end, I really was difficult,” Butler told The Hollywood Reporter in 2021. “I was out of my mind. Drugs will do that to you. The show should have been pulled sooner than it was.” Nevertheless, the show started off a big hit with viewers, ranking as the...

That ’70s Show is back in the spotlight, with a reboot series that is introducing thousands of fans to the characters and situations that made the original such a success. That ’70s Show was one of the biggest TV hits of the early 2000s, making stars out of performers like Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, and introducing many popular characters into the pop culture lexicon. Over the years, many big names had cameo roles on the show, from Lindsay Lohan to Betty White. Even child stars Cole and Dylan Sprouse had guest roles in That ’70s Show — notably, playing different characters for the first time in their careers.

“The following is a true story. Except for cutting the boring shit and making up a bunch of stuff, this really happened.”
So opens Sex, Drugs and a Sitcom, a wild TV pilot script written by überproducer Chuck Lorre about the tumultuous time he spent steering the ship at Two and a Half Men. The series starred, of course, Charlie Sheen, then one of the highest-paid actors on TV, before he was fired in 2011 after publicly attacking Lorre, launching antisemitic insults and calling him a “turd” and a “clown.”
The script, obtained by THR, is dated June 15, 2022. According to a source, Lorre shopped it around town but didn’t set it up — though there’s little doubt it dropped a few jaws with its raucous, no-holds-barred account of what (possibly?) went on behind the scenes.

Paul Schreiber has been upped to president of North America at Carsey-Werner Television, taking over all day-to-day distribution operations for the company, which houses a library that includes “That ’70s Show” and “3rd Rock from the Sun.” The news was announced on Tuesday by COO Bob Dubelko.
Schreiber replaces domestic distribution president Jim Kraus, spent 20 years leading Carsey-Werner’s distribution operation and who will now take a senior consultant role with the company. Kraus, whose 45-year career in TV syndication included a lengthy stint at McA-tv (then Universal’s syndication unit), first joined Carsey-Werner in 1999 as exec VP/general sales manager.
As for Schreiber, he’s also a Carsey-Werner longtimer, having first joined the company 26 years ago, back when Carsey-Werner was still active in first-run production.

HBO Max has given an eight-episode straight-to-series order to How To Be a Bookie, the first comedy for the streamer from one of Warner Bros. Television’s top showrunners, Chuck Lorre, co-creator/exec producer of HBO Max’s most watched off-network series, The Big Bang Theory. Actor-comedian Sebastian Maniscalco (The Irishman) is set to star in the single-camera series, which Lorre is co-writing with one of his close associates over the past decade, Nick Bakay. It is comedy king Lorre’s first sale since the start of the pandemic.
In How To Be a Bookie, a veteran bookie (Maniscalco) struggles to survive the impending legalization of sports gambling, increasingly unstable clients, family, co-workers, and a lifestyle that bounces him around every corner of Los Angeles, high and low.

Tom Everett Scott had one of the most auspicious breaks early in his career when he landed the lead in The Thing You Do, a 1996 film written by and starring Tom Hanks.
Presently, he has a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries film, Rise and Shine, Benedict Stone, airing on Sunday, September 26, which gave us an opportunity to jump on the phone with him for a lovely discussion about his career.
Tom is so personable, and our conversation was filled with laughter, so please keep that frame of mind as you read about this charming actor.
It's so nice to talk with you.
Nice to talk to you too.
You have had such an interesting career.
Thank you.
Obviously launching off of That Thing You Do with Tom Hanks. How did that change your life?
Oh my goodness, in so many ways. I really can't even begin to tell you. But I will say,...

James Hampton, best known for his roles in “F Troop,” “Teen Wolf” and “The Longest Yard,” for which he earned a Golden Globe nomination, died Wednesday due to complications from Parkinson’s disease, his agent confirmed to Variety. He was 84.
An award-winning actor, director, writer and producer, Hampton enjoyed a career in entertainment that spanned half a century before retiring to his native Texas.
Born in Oklahoma City and raised in Dallas, he served in the Army after attending North Texas State College. Shortly after, he landed a role in the hit television series, “Gunsmoke.”
On “Gunsmoke,” he met and developed a close relationship with Burt Reynolds. The pair worked together on “The Man Who Loved Cat Dancing,” “The Longest Yard,” “W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings” and “Hustle.” Hampton also wrote and directed several episodes of Reynolds’ CBS sitcom, “Evening Shade.”

New York, Feb 2 (Ians) Antarctic ice is melting, contributing massive amounts of water to the world's seas and causing them to rise, but that melt is not as linear and consistent as scientists previously thought, a new study suggests.
The analysis, of 20 years' worth of satellite data, shows that Antarctica's ice melts at different rates each year, meaning the models scientists use to predict coming sea level rise might also need adjusting.
"The ice sheet is not changing with a constant rate -- it's more complicated than a linear change," said lead author Lei Wang, Assistant Professor at the Ohio State University in the US.
The study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, is built on data from NASA's Grace (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment), a two-satellite mission that measures changes in the world's oceans, ground water and ice sheets.

Netflix is closing the book on On My Block.
The streamer on Friday announced a 10-episode fourth season order for the hit comedy, which was named one of the streamer's most-binged series a few years back.
10 episodes mean that it will have two more episodes than On My Block Season 4, but this is perhaps to help close the series out.
News of the renewal was expected, but given that the third season dropped on Netflix almost a year ago, and the way that Netflix has been canceling previously renewed shows, its fate was very much up in the air.
Stars Sierra Capri, Jason Genao, Brett Gray, Diego Tinoco, Jessica Marie Garcia, and Julio Macias will all return for the last-ever season.
The cast of On My Block negotiated pay rises ahead of production on the third season, which included terms should the show be renewed for a fifth season.

Skydance Media has set a substantial refinancing, closing a four-year revolving credit facility worth up to $1 billion.
The facility, led by J.P. Morgan, is initially valued at $500 million but Skydance will have the ability to double it, according to president and COO Jesse Sisgold.
In announcing the arrangement, the film and TV company said the refinancing was oversubscribed based on its track record and prospects. Founded in 2010 by David Ellison, Skydance has backed a notable roster of feature and series titles, including Netflix films The Old Guard and 6 Underground, studio releases like installments in the Mission: Impossible franchise and shows like Grace & Frankie. Its debut feature animation project is the forthcoming Luck.
The credit facility will be used to sustain and expand the company’s operations, plus production and development activities in film, TV and animation. It will also support interactive-focused and venture endeavors, Skydance said.

The alphabet network is gearing up for spring. ABC has announced the premiere dates for three new TV series -- dog grooming competition Pooch Perfect, Topher Grace comedy Home Economics, and Rebel, a drama starring Katey Sagal.
The return dates for Station 19, Grey's Anatomy, and A Million Little Things have also been revealed. The dramas have been on hiatus since December but will be back in March. A Million Little Things will be moving to a new night in April so it won't have top-rated Grey's Anatomy as a lead-in any longer.

Rebekah Graf (S.W.A.T.) is set for a recurring role opposite Keegan Allen and Jared Padalecki in the CW’s Walker, a reimagining of CBS’ long-running 1990s action/crime series Walker, Texas Ranger, from Rideback and CBS Studios. Like the original series, created by Albert S. Ruddy & Leslie Greif, the reboot, in which Walker is getting a female partner, will explore morality, family and rediscovering our lost common ground. Graf will play Crystal, a bright eyed, wild and charming woman, the type who married an unhinged criminal because he promised her an exciting life. She is reckless and lies with ease, but there is a humanity beneath her. Graf recently guest-starred on S.W.A.T. She played Heather Locklear in Netflix’s Motley Crue movie The Dirt and can next be seen in the indie feature Grace and Grit. Graf is repped by Media Artists Group, Matt Sherman Management and attorney Derek Kroeger.

“Watchmen” and “The Leftovers” director Nicole Kassell has been tapped to helm the HBO-Sky co-production “The Baby,” created by Siân Robins-Grace and Lucy Gaymer. Kassell will serve as lead director and executive producer on the eight-episode first season of the darkly comic horror series from Sister and Proverbial Pictures.
The series is described as a “a funny, raw examination of motherhood as an institution: a set of unspoken and often horrifying rules that affect women differently depending on how they’re viewed by society.”
Several writers have been confirmed to join Robins-Grace in the all-women writers room, including Sophie Goodheart of “Sex Education” and “My Brother Blind,” Kara Smith of “Kaos” and “Apple Tree House,” Anchuli Felicia King of “White Pearl” and “Golden Shield,” and Susan Stanton, known for “Succession.” Bisha K. Ali will be a consultant on the series.

ABC has ordered the single-camera comedy “Home Economics” to series.
The series will air on the broadcast network in Spring 2021. The show was originally developed as part of the 2020 pilot season. Following the production shutdown caused by the pandemic, ABC announced in June that it planned to film a number of its pilots — including “Home Economics” — later in the year.
The series is inspired by the life of co-creator Michael Colton. It examines the relationship between three adult siblings: one in the 1 percent, one middle-class, and one barely holding on.
Along with Grace, the series stars Caitlin McGee, Jimmy Tatro, Karla Souza, and Sasheer Zamata. Shiloh Bearman, Jordyn Curet, Chloe Jo Rountree and JeCobi Swain also star.
“Home Economics” was written and executive produced by Colton and John Aboud. Grace executive produces in addition to starring, along with Eric and Kim Tannenbaum of The Tannenbaum Company. Jason Wang of The Tannenbaum Company will co-executive produce.
