Arnold Schwarzenegger thanked fans for their support Thursday following his pacemaker surgery earlier this month. The action star also assured audiences his recovery would not delay the upcoming second season of Fubar.
“Thank you! I’ve gotten so many kind messages from all over the world, but a lot of people have asked if my pacemaker will cause any problems with Fubar Season 2,” Schwarzenegger wrote on social media. “Absolutely not. I will be ready to film in April, and you can only see it if you’re really looking for it.”
Attached to the post was a picture of the actor, with his pacemaker depicted as a cartoon ticking bomb atop his chest.

Welcome to Wrexham season 3 will have to wait a bit longer. The third installment of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s soccer docuseries will delay its premiere to early May, FX announced Thursday.
The show was originally set to premiere its third season April 18, but the release has now been pushed to May 2. FX did not give a reason for the shift.
The fly-on-the-wall sports documentary series follows Reynolds and McElhenney as they navigate their ownership of the world’s third-oldest professional soccer club in the northern Welsh town of Wrexham.
The show won five Emmy Awards for its first season in January, after concluding its second installment last December. FX confirmed season three’s renewal in November 2023.
“In 2020, Rob and Ryan teamed up to purchase the 5th tier Red Dragons in the hopes of turning the Club into an underdog story the whole world could root for,” an FX release read Thursday.

It’s a heartbreaker for Heartstopper.
Emmy winner Olivia Colman will not return for the third season of Netflix’s British coming-out comedy.
“I couldn’t do number three. I couldn’t fit it in. I feel awful about that,” the actress who recurred as Sarah Nelson, mother to Nick Nelson (Kit Connor), told Forbes in a feature published Thursday. “I feel like I was part of one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever been part of.”
Series creator Alice Oseman responded to the news on her Instagram Story, explaining that the production “tried absolutely everything we could” to get Colman back for the role, but it “wasn’t meant to be, and that’s just the way the TV world works sometimes.”

Four years after Showtime’s award-winning Homeland ended its eight-season run, star Claire Danes and creator Howard Gordon are reuniting at Netflix.
The streaming giant has handed out a straight-to-series order for The Beast in Me, a limited series starring Danes and from showrunner Gordon.
Created by Gabe Rotter, Netflix says the mystery thriller revolves around “acclaimed author Aggie Wiggs, who since the death of her young son has receded from public life, unable to write, a ghost of her former self. But she finds an unlikely subject for a new book when the house next door is bought by Nile Sheldon, a famed and formidable real estate mogul who was once the prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance. At once horrified and fascinated by this man, Aggie finds herself compulsively hunting for the truth — chasing his demons while fleeing her own — in a game of cat and mouse that might turn deadly.

Following Bravo’s reboot of “The Real Housewives of New York City” last year, the network has announced that all six cast members are set to return for its upcoming Season 15. Yes, that includes even the ostensibly elusive, seemingly reluctant Jenna Lyons, who came into the show’s 14th season as the cast’s only famous person, and revealed herself over the course of the show to be a shy, charming oddball — and who, since the season premiered in July of last year, has been the subject of endless rumors speculating that she would not care to repeat the experience.

Louis Gossett Jr., who was the first Black man to win the Best Supporting Actor Oscar, has died. He was 87.
(Sidney Poitier was the first Black man to win an acting Oscar. His win, in 1964, was as the lead in “Lilies of the Field.”)
Gossett won the Academy Award for his role as Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Emil Foley, Richard Gere’s hardcore drill instructor in 1982 film “An Officer and a Gentleman.” He was just the third Black actor to receive a nomination in the category. Gossett won a Golden Globe for the role as well.
In 2023, Gossett appeared in the remake of “The Color Purple,” as well as in a pair of episodes of BET+ original series “Kingdom Business.” The same year, he lent his voice to an uncredited part of Michael Jai White’s “Outlaw Johnny Black.”

So, it was an offhand conversation about the character that tied in beautifully with what he’d already been writing.” Once Davidson became aware of the definitive plans for Ashley, she began researching Did. “When Ashley first had mental health issues in the ’80s, I went to Camarillo State Hospital,” she relays. “Now there’s Google.

Joey King is no stranger to a shaved head. The actress has (so far) done away with her hair three different times for roles — and assumes she’ll probably do so again at some point.
With current discussion in Hollywood about artificial intelligence kicking way up, including what it can and can’t do, and the ways it may change how actors work, IndieWire asked King how shaving her head helped her performances. Specifically, if potentially not having to do so in the future, thanks to technological advances, appealed to her or would it change something about how the actress preps.
“So I’ve done it three times, and I have to say, I think it was really important each time,” King told IndieWire. “Every woman has struggled over the years to define what beauty means to me. I do think [shaving my head] was so helpful in terms of not being attached...

When you think of the greatest teen drama romances, it’s easy to automatically gravitate towards the classics: Pacey and Joey, Willow and Tara, Rory and Jess, and whichever side you were on with the love triangle between Brooke, Lucas, and Peyton. While the ’90s and ’00s were certainly full of great ships, there are also plenty of incredible couples from more recent teen shows worth talking about. Today’s streaming-dominated landscape may mean fewer slow burns, but there have also been positive developments: more characters of color at the center, increased LGBTQ+ representation, and less reliance on problematic tropes. It’s highly unlikely we would have gotten a YA show like Netflix’s Young Royals — which centers on a queer, interracial relationship — back in the early 2000s.

When Christina Hager went to bed Wednesday night, she had no idea she was about to be name-checked on national TV.
But to hear her tell it, she woke up the next morning to text messages from “everyone I’ve ever met.”
Hager’s moment in the sun came when a story she reported for CBS affiliate Wbz was featured on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert as part of the show’s “Meanwhile” segment Wednesday night.
In Hager’s original reporting for Wbz, she tested the veracity of online Pet DNA services by swabbing her own cheek, only to be returned results from one company indicating that she was 40% Alaskan Malamute, 35% Shar-Pei and 25% Labrador.
“Which is shocking,” Colbert joked. ”Until you see Christina Hager,” at which point an image of a reporter with the face of a dog was shown holding a Wbz microphone.

Rogers buzzed in first and answered what many fans heard as “Everglade National Park,” missing the “S” off the end of Everglades. Despite this slight mispronunciation, Sajak quickly replied, “That is correct.” The long-time host even told Rogers, “Lovely annunciation and everything.” However, viewers at home weren’t so quick to let Rogers off the hook, taking to social media to share their reactions. “This lady on #wheeloffortune just said “Everglade National Park” and got credit for the puzzle.

Melissa Joan Hart is the latest Nickelodeon star to address Quiet On Set, the Investigation Discovery docuseries that revealed alleged experiences of abuse, sexism, and racism on children’s TV shows from the late 1990s and early 2000s. Hart, who starred in the Nickelodeon teen sitcom Clarissa Explains It All from 1991 to 1994, appeared on the Meghan McCain Has Entered The Chat podcast on Thursday, March 28, stating she “absolutely believes” the allegations even though she doesn’t have any personal horror stories. “I don’t know other people’s experiences, and I’m not negating anything anybody else says. I’ve never been told these people’s stories that are in the [docuseries],” Hart said, per Deadline. “And I have to say, I’ve never heard a story from a Nickelodeon star personally; nobody’s come to me and talked to me about any of these situations. She added, “I absolutely trust them,...

British actor Sheyi Cole has a prominent role in Thea Sharrock’s Netflix original film “The Beautiful Game.”
The film revolves around the Homeless World Cup, an annual soccer tournament bringing together displaced or dispossessed players from nearly 50 countries, playing not merely for a trophy but for a second shot at life. Cole plays Jason, a would-be ladies’ man given a sharp #MeToo education when he inappropriately comes onto sparky Mexican-American player Rosita (Cristina Rodio).

This past Monday night on The Daily Show Jon Stewart called Kevin O’Leary an asshole.
It was no big deal. It wasn’t even really a joke because Stewart seemed really to just be making a personal observation about the long-time Shark Tank business “shark,” saying he is “such an asshole even the other people on Shark Tank think he’s an asshole.”
No bleeping, of course, because Comedy Central is a cable network and so not vulnerable to complaints that could threaten the broadcast license bestowed on television stations by the Federal Communications Commission.
Those licenses still exist, though what sort of entity needs one is somewhat poorly understood, as Donald Trump demonstrates every time he rails at CNN or MSNBC for questioning his fitness to be president and demands that their licenses be revoked.
The A-word, as it might once have been decorously referred to, is now so...

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for 9-1-1 Season 7 Episode 3 “Capsized.”] 9-1-1 brings its three-part cruise ship disaster to an end with an episode full of exciting saves—by and of Bobby (Peter Krause)—and an off-the-books requisition of a helicopter, and what better way to cap it off than with the honeymooning couple home and enjoying being together? Athena (Angela Bassett) and Bobby have saved themselves and the others with them as much as they can by the time the 118—Hen (Aisha Hinds) finds Chimney (Kenneth Choi), Buck (Oliver Stark), and Eddie (Ryan Guzman) waiting, along with former 118-er Tommy (Lou Ferrigno Jr.) as the helicopter pilot—arrives on scene. (Even Athena and Bobby can’t help everyone climb out through the giant hole in the ship.) Below, Krause takes us inside some of the biggest moments of the cruise ship emergency, talks Bobby and Athena’s relationship, and teases what’s ahead. I’m not surprised ...

9-1-1 fans can breathe a massive sigh of relief after Thursday’s conclusion to the season’s three-part premiere, now that Bobby and Athena are finally back on land — and back in the saddle. (Bow-chicka-bow-wow!)
Of course, not everyone fared quite as well as the 118’s Mom and Dad this week. For starters, remember that guy who “just wanted to cash out” on the ship? Well, he cashed out all right… from life. He was the episode’s first official victim, leaving just a handful of survivors to make their way off the boat.

During its two-season run on HBO, “Euphoria” has launched its young cast into superstardom and won multiple Emmys, while also being a magnet for controversy — but whatever lies ahead for the Sam Levinson-created show is going to have to wait.
Earlier this week, HBO officially delayed the drama, which was set to begin production later this spring. “HBO and Sam Levinson remain committed to making an exceptional third season,” an HBO spokesperson told Variety. “In the interim, we are allowing our in-demand cast to pursue other opportunities.”

What happens when you plan an extravagant worldwide tour… and nobody shows up?
That, unfortunately, seems to be the case for Girls5eva, the sharp and sassy music-industry comedy that moved from Peacock to Netflix for its third season this month. The show — staring Sara Bareilles, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Busy Philipps and Paula Pell as the members of a forgotten Y2K-era girl group attempting a middle-age comeback — was never properly appreciated during its two Peacock seasons, and it felt like a lifeline when it got picked up by Netflix for Season 3, since the streaming giant routinely turns its acquired shows into monster hits.

Outside of having one of the greatest rom-com plots of all time (if not the greatest), When Harry Met Sally boasts some of the most gorgeous nature shots of New York City ever caught on film. Billy Crystal reveals to TV Insider that weather almost deprived us of one of its most picturesque scenes. Had they waited just one more day to film it, they would have lost the perfect shot. When Harry Met Sally shows the changing seasons so idyllically. Crystal tells TV Insider its cinematography is “underrated in that way.” One of the film’s most famous moments takes place in Central Park. In it, Harry (Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) stroll through the park talking about their odd sex dreams before going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. They’re surrounded by gorgeous autumn leaves in the scene. “It was timed that way,” Crystal says. And the timing was kismet.
