‘Survivor’ Season 37 Castaways Announced for the David vs. Goliath-Themed New Season

Survivor Season 37 castaways

The 20 new castaways who will be taking part in the 37th season of Survivor will include a scientist, an MMA fighter, a wrestler, a filmmaker, and a S.W.A.T. officer. The 20 competitors will be divided into two tribes that will compete in challenges on the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.

According to CBS’s official announcement of season 37’s castaways, the theme will be “David vs. Goliath.” The David tribe is made up of castaways who’ve overcome adversity. The Goliath tribe members “tend to capitalize on their individual advantages and use it against their opponents.”

Survivor season 37 will premiere on Wednesday, September 26, 2018 at 8pm ET/PT. Jeff Probst is once again handling the hosting duties and guiding the castaways through tribal councils.


“‘Goliaths’ often have visible advantages, and they capitalize on them to ensure success, whereas ‘Davids’ are often forced to rely on their secret weapons and use these advantages to overcome adversity,” explained executive producer and host Jeff Probst. “It’s two very different approaches to life, but Survivor is the great equalizer, because you never know which skill set will be most useful in this cunning game of social politics.”

Season two of Cinemax’s Outcast will finish up its second season with four new episodes in September 2018. The series is airing on Fridays at 10pm ET/PT and is based on the Skybound/Image comic created by Robert Kirkman (The Walking Dead).

The Season 2 Plot: Plagued by demons since childhood, Kyle is on a journey to find answers – but what he uncovers could mean the end of life as we know it. Continuing to probe the mystery of what lies behind the town of Rome’s supernatural manifestations, and why they are drawn to Kyle, the show explores how people cope with extreme circumstances while protecting the ones they love.

Patrick Fugit stars as Kyle Barnes, a young man who has been plagued by demonic possession all his life. With the help of Reverend Anderson, played by Philip Glenister, a preacher who believes he is a soldier in God’s holy war against the forces of evil, Kyle tries to protect those he holds most dear, now that the otherworldly threats prove greater in scope and number than anticipated. His struggle will grow into a fight for all of his hometown, as he discovers the haunting secrets of his own past.

‘The Rookie’ TV Series Preview: What’s It About, Who’s In It and When Does It Air?

Nathan Fillion returns to a starring role in series television with ABC’s new one-hour drama, The Rookie. Fillion, who spent eight seasons starring in Castle, leads the cast of the new cop series which is set to premiere on October 16, 2018. The Rookie will air on Tuesdays at 10pm ET/PT as part of ABC’s fall primetime schedule.

The cast includes Nathan Fillion as John Nolan, Alyssa Diaz as Angela Lopez, and Richard T. Jones as Sergeant Wade Grey. Titus Makin plays Jackson West, Mercedes Mason is Captain Zoe Andersen, Melissa O’Neil is Lucy Chen, Afton Williamson plays Talia Bishop, and Eric Winter is Tim Bradford.

The series is written by Alexi Hawley (Castle, The Following) who also executive produces. Fillion, Mark Gordon, Michelle Chapman and Jon Steinberg also serve as executive producers on The Rookie. The show’s first episode was directed by Liz Friedlander.

The Plot: Starting over isn’t easy, especially for small-town guy John Nolan (Nathan Fillion) who, after a life-altering incident, is pursuing his dream of being a Los Angeles police officer. As the force’s oldest rookie, he’s met with skepticism from some higher-ups who see him as just a walking midlife crisis. If he can’t keep up with the young cops and the criminals, he’ll be risking lives including his own. But if he can use his life experience, determination and sense of humor to give him an edge, he may just become a success in this new chapter of his life.

Danny DeVito Interview: ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,’ Broadway, and ‘Triplets’

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia star Danny DeVito

Danny DeVito was part of a TCA table read for It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia season 13. The episode they read has Mac (Rob McElhenney) officially come out to his father through an interpretive dance. Frank (DeVito) tries to be supportive in his own way too.

DeVito stayed after the read to talk with reporters more. Other episodes this season see Frank and the gang try to solve an escape room and try to make Paddy’s pub great again. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia returns Wednesday, September 5, 2018 at 10pm ET/PT on FXX.

Is Frank Reynolds more your signature character now over Louie from Taxi?

Danny DeVito: “Yeah, I think it’s Frank unless you’re a kid. Then it’s Mr. Wormwood. Really, I get a lot of people who grew up with Matilda. So, I do get a lot of Mr. Wormwood and that’s really fun because it’s, ‘I’m going to Guam. Hurry up, the speedboat salesmen are coming.’


I’m from Jersey, a little bit outside from Philly. But wherever I go now, since the show’s been on and very popular all over the world basically, I mean, people will say to me things like, ‘Go Philly! Hey, Philly!’ something like that, you know. So, I think all the people that I’ve encountered so far, no matter how base we are, they just think of it as kind of a cool thing and a feather in their cap, Philly people. They like our show, I think. And we like Philly too.”

Have been asked to do anything so debased that you’ve taken a pause and said, “Maybe not for this one?”

Danny DeVito: “There have been very few things that I’ve said no to. There was one episode that I didn’t want to do, but it was they wrote it as a joke. I get thrown out of windows. I come out of couches naked. I puffed myself up like that makeup was really amazing to do, a lot of fun. I bled all over everything. I’ve done everything. I mean, not everything, because we have a…you still got to do another season of the show and there are probably going to be other things. If anybody thinks of anything that they want to see me do, you can write to them, and if it’s outrageous enough, they’ll put it in the show.”

Do you worry about political correctness and getting in trouble for things you thought everybody would laugh at?

Danny DeVito: “I think the main thing about that is abuse. The main thing about that is respect. There’s funny and then there’s abusive and then there’s jokes and everybody kids each other about stuff. But when there’s the violation of personal space, then I think you’re in a big mess. Since all of this has gone on, women need to be heard and listened to and that’s great, but I really don’t feel like the majority of the comedians in the world or people who poke fun at themselves and each other are abusive. I don’t think that’s the case. There are rare, rare cases of that, and they’ve come to the surface.”

Arnold said he saw the Triplets script. Have you?

Danny DeVito: “No, I haven’t seen it. I don’t know what’s going to happen with that but I’m looking forward to it.”

How’s Dumbo going?

Danny DeVito:Dumbo’s beautiful. Tim (Burton) is a genius. It’s really a movie that’s going to be for everybody. We love Dumbo. He’s our precious friend and I think in the hands of a visual artist like Tim, Disney’s got something really special on their hands because that was an experience. It was a really wild, great, fun, colorful experience with Dumbo.”

Was it interesting working with Tim again all these years later?

Danny DeVito: “Tim and I have worked together four times now. It’s always a pleasure. We stay in touch. I go to see his art shows. I’ve done things like that. Even though we weren’t making movies together for a while, we are good friends and we keep in touch.”

How was your experience on Broadway?

Danny DeVito: “That was my first time on Broadway. The amazing thing is doing Arthur Miller, it’s great words. I’ve done two plays now since we’ve been doing Sunny. One was Sunshine Boys which was Neil Simon, so great writing. Arthur Miller, you just can’t beat that gift of language.”

What’s the most important life lesson you’ve learned?

Danny DeVito: “Before you go on a long road trip, you should take a leak. Very, very important. As you get older, the bladder’s like, ‘What?'”

What is your favorite TV comedy of all time and why?

Danny DeVito: “I think it’s I Love Lucy because I grew up watching her and Ethel dig themselves into major, major holes and try to get out. I kind of look at It’s Always Sunny as like I Love Lucy on acid.”

Did Broadway change your Sunny work?

Danny DeVito: “No, I’m looking forward to finding some other play to do too. I really love the experience and I got t to work with terrific actors and wonderful Arthur Miller words. To be an actor, I relish the thought of doing it again.”

What are your thoughts on a Taxi reboot?

Danny DeVito: “I don’t think about that. I don’t think about the reboots and the remakes. I think about possibly doing new things. Although I guess you would say I did the Arthur Miller that’s been done before, but I enjoyed doing it. And Sunshine Boys was lots of fun.”

What is your love of theater about?

Danny DeVito: “Well, theater’s a great thing. I’m an actor so I like to entertain you. It’s great to have an audience. In the theater, you do the shows like live audience, it’s give and take, it’s really good. Taxi used to be in front of a live audience every Friday night. That was great. So movies totally different and television without audiences, but I really dig doing theater. I want to do more of it.”

What career achievement are you most proud of so far?

Danny DeVito: “I love all the things I’ve done. I’m really very lucky to have been in so many good – had so many good parts. It’s great to work with good writers. It’s nice to be with friends.”

What haven’t you done yet that you’re dying to do?

Danny DeVito: “Keep going. Tomorrow morning. You’ve gotta wake up in the morning. That’s the big thing so I haven’t done that yet. Gotta do that.”

Have you kept in touch with Mara Wilson since she became a writer herself?

Danny DeVito: “Yes, yes. As a matter of fact, Mara and I were together. We had a reunion with Matilda. If you buy the Blu-ray for Matilda, in the middle of the Blu-ray I put a garden party that we had with all the grown-up kids. You get to see Bruce Bogtrotter and Lavender and Matilda and Mrs. Trunchbull was there. Embeth, Miss Honey was there.”

Did it happen very quickly when you started acting?

Danny DeVito: “No, it didn’t. Every actor’s got a lot of things they have to – it’s not an easy task becoming an actor and getting work, so you have to keep in there and be positive about it and just keep being tenacious and going after it and look for that. It’s like hunting, look for the right thing so you keep working on it and don’t give up and don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t do it.”




‘Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Cast Heading to the New York Comic Con

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Nickelodeon’s ‘Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ voice cast: Kat Graham (April O’Neil), Josh Brener (Donatello), Omar Miller (Raphael), Brandon Mychal Smith (Michelangelo) and Ben Schwartz (Leonardo).

Nickelodeon announced their plans to being the voice cast of the Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series to the 2018 New York Comic Con. The series will present a panel that will include a Q&A with series stars Omar Miller, Josh Brener, Brandon Smith, and Kat Graham, as well as voice director Rob Paulsen and executive producers Andy Suriano and Ant Ward.

The panel will take place on Friday, October 5, 2018 at 4:15pm ET/PT on the Main Stage at the Javits Center. Nickelodeon plans to show off brand new clips from the series and will have giveaways for fans in attendance. They also teased there will be “special guests.”

Nickelodeon will also be hosting an autograph signing session with the show’s voice talent and executive producers. The signing will take place at the IDW booth.

Additional daily booth activities for Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fans in attendance include:

  • Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Experience: Attendees can step inside the Turtles’ secret lair under the streets of New York City for a gif opportunity.
  • The Loud House Photo Opp. Enter the Loud family’s living room, sit on the couch and take a group photo with Lincoln Loud and his 10 sisters.
  • Costumed-Character Appearances: The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will make appearances at Nick’s booth at select times during the convention.
  • Giveaways: Enter for a chance to win special prizes over the course of the convention.

The Plot: Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reimagines the characters in a fresh new way, featuring jagged-shelled Raphael as a snapping turtle, wielding twin tonfas as his weapons; Leonardo as a red-eared slider, using an ōdachi sword; Donatello as a soft-shell turtle, sporting a tech-bo staff; and Michelangelo as a box turtle, arming himself with a kusari-fundo. Along for the adventure is the Turtles’ most trusted ally, April O’Neil, a street savvy native New Yorker and Splinter, father figure and sensei to the Turtles.

The Turtles hold distinct personality traits and skills, including: Raphael, as the oldest and biggest brother, he is the leader full of enthusiasm and bravado; Leonardo, the self-professed ‘coolest’ brother possesses irreverent charm and a rebel heart; Donatello, a mechanical genius and tech wizard whose ninja skills are second only to his coding; and Michelangelo, the youngest brother, a skateboarder and artist who is wild and imaginative.

‘Law & Order: Hate Crimes’ Gets a 13 Episode Order from NBC

Dick Wolf's Law and Order: Hate Crimes Series

NBC has ordered a 13 episode season of Law & Order: Hate Crimes from executive producer Dick Wolf. The timely, just-announced series is a Universal Television production and is inspired by New York’s Hate Crimes Task Force.

Dick Wolf co-created Law & Order: Hate Crimes with Warren Leight (former showrunner of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit). Wolf, Leight, Peter Jankowski, Michael Chernuchin, Julie Martin, Mariska Hargitay, Alex Chapple, and Arthur Forney will serve as executive producers.

According to the network, the new Hate Crimes Unit will be introduced during the 20th season of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.


“As Law & Order: SVU enters its remarkable 20th season, it is exciting to get back into business with Dick Wolf on a new Law & Order incarnation that feels extremely timely,” stated Lisa Katz, Co-President of Scripted Programming, NBC Entertainment. “Considering that last year there was a double-digit rise in hate crimes in our 10 largest cities — the highest total in over a decade — it seemed like this topic is begging to be explored.”

NBC Entertainment Co-President of Scripted Programming Tracey Pakosta said, “We’re confident that Dick and Warren will examine these cases in all their complexity and deliver another riveting series for our country, currently grappling with an escalation of these crimes and the motivations behind them.”

“As with all of my crime shows, I want to depict what’s really going on in our cities and shine a light on the wide-ranging victims and show that justice can prevail,” explained Dick Wolf. “Twenty years ago when SVU began, very few people felt comfortable coming forward and reporting these crimes, but when you bring the stories into people’s living rooms – with characters as empathetic as Olivia Benson – a real dialogue can begin. That’s what I hope we can do with this new show in a world where hate crimes have reached an egregious level.”

“I’m extremely impressed by the actual men and women investigating these cases in a city as complicated and diverse as New York,” said co-creator Warren Leight. “The work they are doing puts them on the front lines in a battle for the soul of our city and nation. I’m thrilled about the chance to reunite with Dick and NBC to portray the reality of this crisis.”

The Plot: Law & Order: Hate Crimes is set in New York City, where crimes motivated by discrimination are vigorously investigated by an elite, specially trained team of investigators. Going behind the headlines and viral videos, these diverse, dedicated and passionate detectives will stop at nothing to bring these criminals to justice.




‘BoJack Horseman’ Season 5 Trailer: Netflix’s Popular Animated Series Returns September 14th

Two weeks out from the premiere of the fifth season of BoJack Horseman, Netflix has released the official season five trailer. Netflix has also unveiled the official poster for the adult animated series.

BoJack Horseman season five is set to launch globally on September 14, 2018.

The critically acclaimed animated series was created by Raphael Bob-Waksberg. Bob-Waksberg executive produces with Steven A. Cohen, Noel Bright, and voice cast members Will Arnett (Flaked, Arrested Development) and Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad).


The Plot: “All right, season five of BoJack Horseman, here we go. Has it really been five seasons? Where does the time go, huh? Anyway, this season finds BoJack (voiced by Will Arnett) starring in a new TV show called Philbert, playing a character with disturbing parallels to BoJack’s real life, echoes that force BoJack to confront himself and his past in ways large and small, but the main thing that happens this season is Diane gets a haircut. We spent a lot of time figuring out the haircut — the style, the volume, the bounce, the sheen — and we’re really proud of the way it came out. We really think people are going to like this new season, and Diane’s new haircut!”

A Look Back at Season 4, Courtesy of Raphael Bob-Waksberg: “Bam boom, BoJack Horseman season four synopsis, here we go. Okay, so this season is full of all the things people love about their favorite depressed talking horse. First of all, you’ve got BoJack himself, who is up to his old tricks. Then you have Princess Carolyn, who is one cool cat. While Princess Carolyn toys with the idea of starting a family, BoJack has family issues of his own. This season, on BoJack Horseman.

Meanwhile, Diane and Mr. Peanutbutter have family issues of their own. You might say their marriage is ‘in a pit,’ if you know what I mean (which you won’t, until you watch the season). Meanwhile Todd has issues of his own — as he explores his own evolving sexual identity and also in some episodes doesn’t do that. Oh! And Mr. Peanutbutter’s running for governor now; I forgot to mention that, that’s important. Also, in one episode BoJack wears a new hat! Bet you want to tune in to see that new hat, huh? Okay, I lied, there’s no new hat. I just really want you to watch the new season of BoJack Horseman!”
