Following Sara Ramirez’s departure from And Just Like That… last month, Max’s Sex and the City spinoff has lost another cast member. Karen Pittman, who played Dr. Nya Wallace in the show’s first two seasons, will not be returning for Season 3. In a statement to Variety, a Max spokesperson said Pittman was departing Ajlt because of scheduling conflicts with two other streamer series, likely Apple TV+’s The Morning Show and Netflix’s upcoming Forever. Max “It has been a joy to have Karen Pittman play the smart and stunning Professor Nya Wallace on the first two seasons of And Just Like That…,” the spokesperson said. “As we have thoroughly enjoyed working with this dynamic actress, so too have others. Due to her commitments to two other streamer series, it has become apparent that filming three shows at once isn’t possible. Due to the production realities,...

Judy Blume is a national treasure. She's the award-winning author of 25 novels, including "Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret" (1970), "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing" (1972), "Deenie" (1973), "Blubber" (1974), "Forever... " (1975), and "Starring Sally J. Freedman as Herself" (1977). Blume was the first widely-read author (certainly the first one I encountered as a kid) who spoke frankly about things like changing bodies, menstruation, masturbation, sex, and birth control.
Today Prime Video has released a new trailer for "Judy Blume Forever," which interviews Blume about her history and speaks to people like Molly Ringwald, Lena Dunham, Anna Konkle, Samantha Bee, Jason Reynolds, and Justin Chanda about the influence this trailblazing author gifted us with. As a girl who grew up with these books as a sort of personal schoolhouse, I admit to tearing up as I watched even this brief look at the documentary. In a time when books are under attack in America and facing banning and censorship,...

There's a fitting symmetry to actor Michael B. Jordan's move into the director's chair for "Creed III," where he will also be starring as Adonis Creed, the ascending son of Apollo (Carl Weathers) from the original "Rocky" franchise. "Rocky" star and writer Sylvester Stallone also went on to direct several films in the series, helming the second, third, and fourth "Rocky" movies before returning 20 years later to star in and direct 2006's "Rocky Balboa." In a surprise continuation of the franchise, director Ryan Coogler re-imagined the property's underdog story for a new generation with 2015's "Creed." In the film, Michael B. Jordan and Tessa Thompson became the new Rocky and Adrian (Adonis and Bianca), and Stallone returned as the Mickey character (an older Rocky), the scruffy mentor role originally occupied by Burgess Meredith.

The animated series “Tuca & Bertie” has been canceled a second time, showrunner Lisa Hanawalt revealed on Twitter on Wednesday.
The animated show, which starred the voices of Ali Wong and Tiffany Haddish as anthropomorphic birds, was originally canceled after one season on Netflix before being picked up by Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim for Season 2. The network ordered a third season, which completed its run in August, but that’s the end of the road for the series for now.
“I still have a beautiful and weird ending to T&b in mind, hopefully someday we’ll get the chance to finish this story,” Hanawalt said on Twitter.
“To all our fans – we love you and can’t thank you enough for your support over the years,” Hanawalt said. “Please never stop making weird fan art (and dressing up as the characters for Halloween!), it brings me endless joy.

Jason Bateman has booked his holiday travel.
The multi-hyphenate is scheduled to star opposite Taron Egerton in the new Netflix thriller “Carry On,” TheWrap has confirmed. The film will be directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, a man who knows a thing about transportation-related terror thanks to “Non-Stop” and “The Commuter.”
Egerton plays a young Tsa agent who is blackmailed by a shadowy traveler (presumed to be the Bateman role) to let a dangerous package get through security (and onto a flight). And this happens, of course, during Christmas, which is already giving us “Die Hard 2” vibes. (The overall plot sounds like “Executive Decision” with a little “Red Eye” thrown in for good measure).
Tj Fixman wrote the first draft of the screenplay, with Michael Green doing the most recent polish. Dylan Clark will serve as producer. This is the first movie coming out of a recent Amblin/Netflix deal (which...

The theme of Code Orange’s new video for “Underneath” — the pummeling yet catchy title track off their upcoming LP — is total confusion.
Singer-guitarist Reba Meyers sings in a padded room. Keyboardist Eric “Shade” Balderose looks like a mad scientist. Bassist Joe Goldman is chained to a wall. The backdrop? Walls made of aluminum foil, cellophane-covered synchronized dancers and a burnt man crawling through tar.
This all unfolds as Meyers sings about how facing obstacles head on is the only way to overcome them and drummer-vocalist Jami Morgan screams about judging a generation.

A day after releasing his new track "Yummy," Justin Bieber has dropped the official music video! On Jan. 4, the 25-year-old singer shared the visual for the smooth tune, and it features a lot of food. Bieber is seen enjoying a full-course meal, surrounded by quirky characters, before taking off his sweatshirt and dancing on top of the dinner table. Considering the song is a loving tribute to Bieber's wife, Hailey Baldwin, something tells us she's going to be watching this on a loop.
"Yummy" marks the beginning of Bieber's new musical era, as he stated in a teaser for his upcoming LP. "I feel like this is different than the previous albums just because of where I'm at in my life," he says in the clip. "My past, my mistakes, all the things that I've been through - I believe that I'm right where I'm supposed to be, and God...

We've already run down our favorite action/adventure series, but now we're looking at a decade's worth of favorite procedural programming.
This is a reminder that we have almost two dozen favorites lists, and since we couldn't showcase every show on every list, we parsed them out a bit to make it more fun.
And these lists are not in any particular order. They're in the order the entries were received by TV Fanatic staff, so don't read into them!
To qualify, a show that began in another decade had to be airing during the decade, run a larger number of seasons from 2010 through 2019 if it started before 2010 or run the entire decade. Here we go!

The Fox contestant won Season 2 of the Fox network’s “Masked Singer” Wednesday night and was revealed to be comedian Wayne Brady. And Brady — who beat out fellow finalists Chris Daughtry (who was Rottweiler) and Adrienne Bailon (Flamingo), as well as the 13 other contestants from the singing competition’s second season — told TheWrap his ability to outfox everyone else for the Golden Mask trophy means more to him than scoring an Emmy.
The “Whose Line Is It Anyway” alum, who was nominated for a Grammy for a song off his debut album in 2008, says that the oddball competition is, “at its heart, it’s a singing competition.”

Paul Rudd is such a naturally ebullient actor that it can be startling to see him ground down. A gifted physical performer who, at 50, looks so youthful that his appearance tends to precede all other attributes when he’s discussed, Rudd also still has the verve and energy of a rising star — a quality that he seems to enjoy playing against. Directed by Judd Apatow, Rudd helped give the films “Knocked Up” and “This is 40” their heft by sapping himself of fun and light. We wanted to see Rudd light on his feet because we know he shouldn’t be subject to entropy like the rest of us.

Pearlena Igbokwe was an English major at Yale, so it’s no surprise that she loves the process of reading and analyzing a literary work, breaking down the text and identifying its major themes and conclusions. In grade school, she was the type of kid who didn’t groan when a book report was assigned.
These instincts have served Igbokwe well in her nearly 30 years as a creative executive in television. But the Showtime and NBC alum, who has headed Universal Television since 2016, didn’t know what work lay ahead in the spring of 1985, as her sophomore year at the Ivy League college was coming to an end.

Yes, folks, you read that header correctly, the original House of the Dead and its sequel are officially getting the remake treatment.
News of Sega’s classic arcade games being revived first made headlines last week via Polish website Graczpospolita, which stipulated that studio Forever Entertainment would be overseeing the series’ return to the limelight. The developer has since confirmed via social media that it has in fact signed an agreement “regarding remakes of the games,” though sadly, not the platforms on which the pair will appear.
“No platforms or release dates have been confirmed,” reads the statement, adding “unfortunately we can’t say anything more for now. Please keep fingers crossed for us and follow our official channels.” That final sentence is a strange one, for sure. From the wording, it’s clear that the remakes are either in the early stages of development or work is yet to commence,...

From Donatella Versace to Oprah Winfrey, Maya Rudolph is known for her wide array of impersonations on Saturday Night Live. She has since been in numerous films and TV series including Forever, which debuted on Amazon this week. In a recent interview with the New York Times Magazine, Rudolph opened up about how her mixed-race heritage has affected her career — specifically with her hair.
During the interview, Rudolph, the daughter of soul singer Minnie Riperton and producer-songwriter Richard Rudolph, talked about her “super, super, superthick and supercurly” hair made her feel like an outsider as a child. This would spill over into her life on camera when people didn’t know what to do with her hair and would say “the most awful, disgusting things.”
When she joined the cast of SNL in 2000, her hair struggle continued. She said: “My hair was natural when I started Saturday Night Live, but...

The creators of “Forever” would very much like it if you didn’t read this full review before watching the show — or any reviews, or anything that might reveal what the new Amazon comedy starring Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen is about. In fact, critics were sent a list of things not to mention in previews that essentially boiled down to “don’t talk about the characters, the plot, any of the other actors, or really even the fundamental premise.”
And honestly, having seen the series, Alan Yang and Matt Hubbard’s desire for secrecy makes sense. These eight episodes of “Forever” form a delicate soap bubble of a season, one that might easily be popped by coarse “it’s [blank] meets [blank]” comparisons. Like a bubble, it might be a little slight in some ways, but there’s something beautiful, peaceful — perhaps even transcendent — about watching it drift by.

Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Forever,” streaming now on Amazon Prime Video.
The word “forever” is often used flippantly, but as the title of Matt Hubbard and Alan Yang’s new Amazon series, it proves to be the actual amount of time its characters will spend together — because they’re both deceased and navigating a mysterious afterlife world.
Oscar (Fred Armisen) and June (Maya Rudolph) are first introduced to viewers as a married couple who easily slip into a routine. She started dating him, we’re told, because he was “nice” to her.
“Seeing their courtship is something that people can identify with because that’s how I think people imagine courtship looks like — that steady rhythm all the way through,” Armisen tells Variety.
As the show continues, though, both characters are “keeping a lot on the inside,” reveals Rudolph. “There’s so much...

The creators of Amazon's Forever, ostensibly a comedy starring Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph, have kept nearly every detail about their series a secret. But now that the eight episodes are available to stream on Amazon, it seems safe enough to discuss the dialogue-free montage that opens the season.

Spoiler alert: Do not read until you’ve watched the first season of “Forever,” which dropped in its entirety September 14 on Amazon.
Though its first episode tries hard to convince us otherwise, there’s really no way to talk about “Forever” without talking about its capital t Twist.
The premiere of Matt Hubbard and Alan Yang’s new comedy does its damndest to lure the audience into a false sense of security, following married couple June (Maya Rudolph) and Oscar (Fred Armisen) through both the biggest milestones of their relationship and the many banal moments in between. June and Oscar’s lives are perfectly pleasant, but as June realizes with growing discomfort, they could also be described as aggressively banal. Their mutual love and comfort with each other slides into a mind-numbing plateau where tradition calcifies into excuses to never grow or change. For a while — and for longer than...

Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen are likely the reasons why viewers will check out Amazon's new comedy Forever, but once in the door, they better buckle up. The eight-episode first season, which hails from Master of None's Alan Yang and 30 Rock's Matt Hubbard, is good. Like, really good. Forever, not to be confused with the short-lived ABC drama about an immortal medical examiner, follows married couple June (Rudolph) and Oscar (Armisen), they're comfortable in their predictable day-to-day lives, until one day things take a turn. The show starts out feeling like a more middle-aged version of Master of None. There are plenty of small moments, plus the trademark humor of Parks and Recreation and 30 Rock,...

Bobby Brown hits back against unnamed detractors on “Like Bobby,” his first new song since 2012.
“Like Bobby” starts out sounding like an early 2000s hit from the rapper Mystikal, full of growly energy that morphs to take into account modern pop trends. When Brown rap-sings over a brassy trap beat, he sounds defiant: “Everybody gonna talk about it, talk about it/ And I don’t really give a fuck about it, fuck about it/ ‘Cause in the end I gotta be real like Bobby B.”

Amazon’s new series Forever, which debuts Friday, has been as shrouded in mystery as anything in recent Peak TV memory. For a long time, it was simply referred to as “Untitled Fred Armisen/Maya Rudolph comedy series,” and the identities of those stars and co-creators Alan Yang (Master of None) and Matt Hubbard (30 Rock) were about all anyone knew. Even the final title and the trailer gave away little, and when screeners of the whole eight-episode season arrived, they were accompanied by one of the more thorough lists...

Even in the era of Peak TV, fall has largely remained broadcast television’s time to shine. Cable and streaming outfits typically save their best material for the dead of summer or early winter, when the traditional networks have hit the snooze bar, and their big awards plays for March and April, which is to Emmy season what December is to Oscar season. But if there’s one principle that defines the TV landscape these days, it may be “more is more.” Meaning that over the next few months, the...

You know the new fall TV season is upon you when you can't watch a single TV show on ABC, CBS, Fox, or NBC without being inundated by an onsalught of commercials for all their new comedies and dramas (the vast majority of which likely won't be around next season). What you may not realize — because they're usually much more subtle about these things — is that there are quite a number of original shows coming to the various streaming services as well. Whether you subscribe to Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, or any of the others — including the home of originals like HBO or Showtime — there's going to be lots to choose from. Julia Roberts in 'Homecoming.'

Last year Kenan Thompson officially became the longest-running Saturday Night Live cast member, with 15 seasons under his belt. And, when he started on the show in 2003, he was the show’s youngest performer—a situation that seems worthy of some sort of SNL careerist medal.
Instead, this year he got his first Emmy nom focused entirely on acting–last year’s was shared with Chance the Rapper for their co-written comedy song “Last Christmas”. Of being recognized in the supporting comedy actor category this year he says, “To get into the mainstream makes me feel like I have a real career”—a typically funny riposte from a man who’s been a roaring success since his teenage ’90s stint on Nickelodeon’s All That and Kenan & Kel.
Thompson will certainly go down in SNL history for some of the show’s best-loved sketches, like “What Up With That?” and “Black Jeopardy!

Everything starts off so well for Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph in the new “Forever” trailer until things take a turn.
The new Amazon comedy series, previously simply known as the “Untitled Fred Armisen/Maya Rudolph comedy series,” follows the comedians as Oscar and June, a married couple who are in a bit of a rut. They’ve been living the suburban dream in Riverside, California, for 12 years, but June feels like there’s more to life and convinces Oscar to take a ski trip — and that’s when things change.
In the trailer above, we get a glimpse into how the couple met and their day-to-day routine. But things quickly go south as we see Rudolph running on a beach, Armisen grabbing a knife, and some sort of crazy bonfire. Let’s just say Rudolph’s June is tired of talking about butterflies.

For about a half minute of the trailer for the latest Amazon series “Forever,” June (Maya Rudolph) and Oscar (Fred Armisen) seem really, truly happy. From their apparent meet-cute to what looks like one of their first dates, the two look like the kind of pair to build a TV show around.
Then, as this first look turns and the couple settles in their Riverside community, they really become the kind of pair to build a TV show around. Bring on the existential messiness of love, coming to an Amazon Prime Video account near you a lot quicker than you’d expect.
It might not be the gut punch of the “Married Life” sequence from “Up,” but with a little assistance from some melancholy piano and slide guitar, June and Oscar’s tidy marriage goes from magical to familiar in about a minute and a half. This is what trailers...

What if your average workaday existence suddenly was changed by a single decision? Here’s one idea. Amazon is out with the first trailer for Forever, its comedy series starring Saturday Night Live veterans Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen in which a little recreation turns in a life-changing event.
The logline: Married couple June (Rudolph) and Oscar (Armisen) live a comfortable but predictable life in suburban Riverside, CA. For 12 years they’ve had the same conversations, eaten the same meals and taken pleasant vacations at the same rented lake house. But after June talks Oscar into shaking things up with a ski trip, the pair find themselves in completely unfamiliar territory.

In the first trailer for the Amazon Prime series Forever released Thursday, Fred Armisen and Maya Rudolph are a married couple whose lives are about to be upended.
The Saturday Night Live alums take on the roles Oscar and June, who seem to live a repetitive suburban existence in Riverside, California. In the clip, Rudolph and Armisen take daily strolls throughout the neighborhood, eat the same meals and vacation at their rental lake house.
That monotonous life, however, is interrupted when they take a spontaneous ski trip on which, the trailer teases, they have a brush with danger.
