Jean-Claude Van Damme is famous for his impressive kicks and powerful performances, but he took a surprising turn when he guest-starred on the popular TV show Friends. While the 1996 appearance initially seemed like an amusing combination of action and comedy, Van Damme has since admitted he doesn’t enjoy remembering that episode.
With Season 3 now in production, actress Laura Bailey (Dever) will be the primary focus, exploring Abby’s experiences during the three days Ellie spent in Seattle before they met again, as shown at the end of Season 2.

This year, ABC didn’t stop covering politics, but it had to adjust how it did so due to new legal interpretations. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) stated that simply interviewing political candidates wouldn’t automatically qualify shows like talk shows for an exemption from rules requiring equal airtime for all candidates. The FCC then investigated an appearance on “The View” and reports surfaced that the FCC Chairman had previously faced criticism for pressuring broadcasters regarding Jimmy Kimmel. Essentially, ABC now faces greater legal risk when booking certain political guests.

While Apple never explicitly called it a series finale, the third season finale of Ted Lasso, titled “So Long, Farewell,” certainly felt like one. It included many references to past episodes, wrapped up the story that started at the beginning of the show, and showed Ted returning to Kansas, suggesting a final ending for the series.
The new PAW Patrol movie, directed by Cal Brunker and written with Bob Barlen, is the first sequel since 2023’s ‘PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie.’ That previous film gave the pups superpowers and featured them saving the day from Mayor Humdinger and the villainous Victoria Vance, who tried to steal those powers. Now, the team is gearing up for their next adventure, and we’re getting our first good look at the upcoming movie through promotional events.

I’m so excited this tour is coming to Canada! It’s awesome because big rock tours often skip over us here in the Great North. I’m really happy Deep Purple and Kansas are including seven Canadian dates, and they’re even hitting Nova Scotia, which is fantastic!
Jack Black recently told Screen Rant he was thrilled about Donald Glover being cast as Yoshi, exclaiming, “Who was the brilliant mind behind that decision?” He then jokingly added, “I volunteer as tribute to play Yoshi!” It turns out Glover actually reached out to Chris Pratt, who voices Mario, to advocate for himself.

Lionsgate has set a December 17, 2027 release date for The Housemaid’s Secret, two years after the original film came out. This puts the sequel up against Avengers: Secret Wars, the big finale to Marvel’s Multiverse Saga. Lionsgate is probably hoping to attract a different audience, as the first movie, an R-rated thriller, successfully competed with Avatar: Fire and Ash last December, earning over $397 million worldwide. Even if Secret Wars is a blockbuster, it’s likely many viewers will still be looking for a more mature and suspenseful moviegoing experience.
