TVLine can reveal that Philip Winchester (fka SVU ADA Peter Stone) will recur in NCIS: Origins Season 2 as Mike Franks' brother.

11 years ago, when #Gotham sent penguins to visit the office.

😈🤝😇 #MoT 7.9.27

At first blush, Sigourney Weaver looks as out of place in Star Wars as Laura Dern, but I'll keep an open mind. #TheMandalorianAndGrogu

Not sure how I feel about a hunky thirst-trap predator (rocking my hairstyle)....

Forcing reporters to agree to not publish things they learn seems not good.

Was also gonna screenshot the closing moment/closed caption, but would hate to spoil @jowrotethis.bsky.social and Mal. #TheMandalorianAndGrogu

Only thing more questionable than the intrinsic, clumsy AT-AT design: asking one to traverse a narrow cliffside path. #TheMandalorianAndGrogu

A really really really good breakdown of #RottenTomatoes methodology, updates and criticisms, ft. RT bigwig. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

How do you think they fake a piercing like this? Magnet? Or it’s simply plastic and they use spirit gum? #Task

JK: Just when you thought they’d run out of levels, Next Level Baker is like Next Level Chef, but with *bakers*. JL: I couldn’t explain it better to a third grader myself.

Lynch: “Welcome to our tour of Fox’s primetime lineup, that could’ve been an email.”

This Fox Fall Preview show ft Jane Krakowski and Jane Lynch is… adorable? JL “I’m Jane.” JK “Aren’t we all?”

Oh wow. Proof the hosts are actually on-set. #99ToBeat

Like, I’m fine with the idea of #99ToBeat - a G-rated Squid Game The Challenge - but man, the commentary team is just all wrong. And they sound scripted/post-produced.

Hasn’t this woman suffered enough?

In case you missed it: I’m launching a Substack on Sept. 30. I’m still at TVLine and not going anywhere. This will be something different — essays, reflections, and the TV that made me. Would mean a lot if you subscribed: ryanschwartz.substack.com

Dang, that's crazy. Anyway, we moved our annual refugee resettlement fundraiser to Bluesky this spring, after running it entirely on Twitter for over a decade, started with ZERO followers, took our "shrunken" audiences and beat last year's total by $200,000 in a time of massive economic upheaval

A memorial-service reminder that there are no feelings about Kirk you are required to "respect." He was an unregenerate bigot and misogynist who seized on a shrewd grift and used it to make our world worse. I fear that we can't yet measure his legacy, but that's all he deserves to be remembered for.

Fireworks for Trump at Charlie Kirk's memorial service.

This feels like a question for the White House Correspondents Association. A TCA member would have called him on it within 5 minutes of saying it during a panel.

The Fall TV season is heating up 🔥 What will YOU be watching this week?

TVLine's Performer of the Week is.... #Peacemaker 's John Cena

Does the AirPod 3 translate xenomorph?

Nearly injured myself at the gym LOLing at Andy’s suggestion for the final scene of #AlienEarth podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

What if one day your regrets became tangible objects and started crowding your apartment so badly you couldn't even move? For Cetera Magazine, I wrote a short story about an Oakland DJ dealing with that exact problem. Special thanks to Natalia Emmons for editing this piece! Artwork by me ☺️

Very milky episode. 🍼 🍼 #AlienEarth podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

If you want icon status, respond “frankly you’re a terrible president. You know it and so do I.” And then live off a paid speaking tour.

Finding good writing on the internet shouldn't be so damn hard, which is why we've put together this weekly roundup of must-read stories from across Paste Media

Amid Jimmy Kimmel's Suspension, the FCC Chair Crossed a Scary Line — One That He Himself Drew

Why Is #WandaVision In '9-1-1' Skyline? Who Will Be #AlienEarth Finale's Eyeball Host? Did Daily Show's Kimmel Reponse Disappoint? And More TV Qs! tvline.com/features/dai...

GnR’s “November Rain” was used this year on NCIS Origins… this week’s Peacemaker… any other show?

TCA condemns ABC and Disney’s capitulation to the government’s demands of censorship.

This was a good swag box.

@jamesgunn.bsky.social 's 'Superman' lands on HBO Max today, 73 years to the day that 'Adventures of Superman' starring George Reeves debuted on TV.

This is very good.

The mood in Hollywood is different now, a veteran Hollywood exec told me today: "Before, when you had a backlash, it felt like social justice. Now, it feels like the full power of the U.S. government coming for you.” www.vulture.com/article/jimm...

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Jon Stewart will host tonight's 'The Daily Show,' following ABC's suspension of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' — get the details.

"The FCC licenses individual stations only; it does not license radio or television networks, which are organizations composed of multiple stations. Examples of networks include ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox."

Thanks for a lovely chat, Ryan, this was a great way to mark 20 years!

… and all for Charlie Kirk?

FCC ass Brendan Carr is here RTing Trump's lie, and thus contradicting his own "must serve the public interest" argument made ad nauseam over friendly cable news outlets the past 16 hours. So... was Carr lying?

Anyway, now we know what the FCC thinks is in the public interest: Fox host advocating for executing homeless people? Yes ABC comic suggesting Trumpers are using a death cynically? No

I’m happy with that pick. Their entree and dessert both looked amazing. (Not a scallops fan.)

Nobody who works in comedy at ABC should come into work tomorrow. If your employment is contingent upon government approval and your job can be halted due to deliberate bad-faith misreadings by secondary companies fearful about their own government approval, you should find that worrisome.

I wish the #MasterChef judges made more yum-yum noises.

Hey FCC chief Brendan Carr, this is not factual - JKL is not “cancelled.” So now do Trump.
