Fox is bringing back both Animal Control and Going Dutch for the 2025-2026 primetime season. The network confirmed they’ve renewed Animal Control starring Joel McHale for season four, and Going Dutch with Denis Leary will return for season two.
“Animal Control and Going Dutch are proven winners thanks to signature FOX characters brought to life by Joel and Denis — two of the funniest comedic voices on TV today, giving us an ideal foundation for building our new comedy block,” stated Michael Thorn, President, FOX Television Network. “With a focus on creating irreverent, fun workplace humor that’s both outrageous and unpredictable, Joel, Denis, their castmates, and production teams deliver reliably laugh-out-loud moments week after week that will keep fans coming back season after season.”
Animal Control season three stars McHale, Michael Rowland, Vella Lovell, Ravi Patel, and Grace Palmer. The first season of Going Dutch featured Leary, Taylor Misiak, Danny Pudi, Laci Mosley, and Hal Cumpston.
“Animal Control follows a group of local Animal Control workers whose lives are complicated by the fact that animals are simple, but humans are not,” reads Fox’s synopsis. “McHale stars as Frank Shaw, an over-qualified, over-opinionated Animal Control officer who has an almost superhuman ability to understand animals. But humans… not so much.”
The comedy was created by Bob Fisher, Rob Greenberg, and Dan Sterling. Tad Quill is the showrunner and serves as an executive producer along with Fisher, Greenberg, Sterling, and Joel McHale.
“Going Dutch centers on the arrogant, loudmouth U.S. Army Colonel Patrick Quinn (Leary), who — after an epically unfiltered rant — is reassigned to the Netherlands, where he is punished with a command position at the least strategic army base in the world, notable for its Michelin Star commissary, top-notch bowling alley, lavender-infused laundry, and the best (and only) fromagerie in the U.S. Armed Forces,” per Fox. “Surrounded by a diverse group of military misfits, the colonel tries to reinstate discipline and professionalism with the help of the base’s previous interim leader, who just happens to be his estranged daughter, Captain Maggie Quinn (Misiak).”
Created by Joel Church-Cooper, the half-hour workplace comedy is executive produced by Church-Cooper, Denis Leary, and Jack Leary.
CBS’s 2025-2026 primetime lineup will look surprisingly different from the 2024-2025 version, considering that the network is bringing back l8 shows. The network’s primetime schedule will include one new comedy, four new dramas, and three unscripted series, along with its returning fare.
CBS’s schedule announcement revealed they’ve greenlit a Yellowstone spinoff starring Luke Grimes, reprising his role as Kayce Dutton.

New fall dramas include the Blue Bloods spinoff Boston Blue, the Fire Country spinoff Sheriff Country, and CIA, a universe expansion of FBI. DMV, the only new comedy, is described as a workplace comedy set at, obviously, the Department of Motor Vehicles. Taylor Sheridan, Blake Shelton, and Keith Urban’s The Road singing competition series also debuts this coming primetime season.
“Our 2025-2026 primetime schedule boasts a star-studded lineup of returning hit shows and new, exciting series from top creators and producers,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “Coming off another winning season enabled us to make bold scheduling moves and fortify our strong lineup with thematically compatible programs every night of the week for strong viewer flow and to serve as a powerful launchpad for the new shows. Additionally, we’re appreciative of our loyal audiences who regularly watch on CBS and Paramount+ and to our creative partners who continue to deliver outstanding content.”

Parks and Recreation‘s Amy Poehler and Mike Schur are reuniting for the first time since 2015 on Dig, a new comedy just picked up for series by Peacock. Poehler is on board to star and will write and executive produce along with Schur.
Peacock released this description of the series: “Four women working at an archeological dig in Greece are at wildly different crossroads in their lives. When the team uncovers a long-buried secret with the potential to rewrite history, they find themselves at the center of a high-stakes international conspiracy.”
The new comedy is based on Kate Myers’ bestselling novel Excavations. Myers will be involved as a co-executive producer. Only Murders in the Building‘s J.J. Philbin will serve as a writer and executive producer. Additional executive producers include Morgan Sackett, Dave Becky, David Miner, Sharon Jackson, Kate Arend, and Jordan Grief. Fremulon, Paper Kite, 3 Arts, and Ocean Avenue are producing.
NBC’s Dateline is taking a deep dive into the murders of University of Idaho students Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin during the “The Terrible Night on King Road” two-hour special airing on Friday, May 9, 2025 at 9pm ET/PT. The special will include new details on the investigation, including an interview with former college students who had encounters with accused murderer Bryan Kohberger.
Per NBC: “The special features never-before-reported evidence, including video, photographic, and digital materials that investigators say track accused killer Bryan Kohberger’s movements. During the two-hour broadcast, former students also open up to correspondent Keith Morrison for the first time about their interactions with Kohberger. Former graduate student Holly tells Dateline that after meeting Kohberger at a pool party and telling him about a hiking group she was a part of, they exchanged phone numbers. The next day, she received a text from him about hiking with ‘peculiar’ wording, explaining: ‘It was almost overly formal.'”
Kohberger has pleaded not guilty to the November 13, 2022 murders. Jury selection is scheduled to begin on July 30. The trial is set for August 11.
Dateline provided the following transcript of their interview with former graduate student Holly which will be included in the upcoming special:
Holly: “I was kind of mingling and socializing and started chatting with this guy, and he had told me that he had just moved and he was starting his PhD.”
KEITH MORRISON VOICE OVER: HOLLY HAD THAT IN COMMON WITH BRYAN KOHBERGER. SHE’D ALSO MOVED AWAY FROM HOME TO WORK ON A GRADUATE DEGREE. HERS IN PLANT SCIENCE.
Holly: “I definitely felt a little obligated to chat with him, because to me, he seemed a little awkward. Kind of like you might expect for a PhD student who didn’t know anyone at the party and was maybe trying his best to kind of get out there and be social and make friends.”
KEITH MORRISON VOICE OVER: HOLLY TOLD BRYAN ABOUT A HIKING GROUP SHE WAS PART OF AND THEN SHE DID SOMETHING THAT STILL MAKES HER SHIVER A LITTLE.
Holly: “He had put his number into my phone, and then I had texted him my name.”
KEITH MORRISON VOICE OVER: IT WAS THE VERY NEXT DAY, THE DAY AFTER THE POOL PARTY, WHEN HOLLY’S CELL PHONE BUZZED. A MESSAGE. FROM BRYAN KOHBERGER.
Holly: “The wording of the text, as I look back on it, is kind of peculiar.”
KEITH MORRISON VOICE OVER: HERE IT IS, THE ACTUAL TEXT, SENT JULY 10TH, 2022 AT 1:19 P.M. “HEY I AM PRETTY SURE WE SPOKE ABOUT HIKING TRIPS YESTERDAY. I REALLY ENJOY THAT ACTIVITY SO PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANKS!”
Holly: “It was almost overly formal. ‘I really enjoy that activity. So, you know, can you follow up with me about that?'”
Apple Original Films unveiled the official trailer for Echo Valley, and just a heads-up, it seems a little spoilery. The trailer teases a murder and subsequent cover-up, with Euphoria‘s Sydney Sweeney starring as the possible killer and Oscar winner Julianne Moore as her protective mom.
Domhnall Gleeson, Fiona Shaw, Edmund Donovan, Albert Jones, and Kyle MacLachlan also star. BAFTA winner Michael Pearce (Beast) directs, and two-time Emmy nominee Brad Ingelsby (Mare of Easttown) wrote the screenplay.
“In the edge-of-your-seat thriller Echo Valley, Kate (Moore) is a mother struggling to make peace with her troubled daughter Claire (Sweeney)—a situation that becomes even more perilous when Claire shows up on Kate’s doorstep, hysterical and covered in someone else’s blood,” reads Apple Original Films’ synopsis. “As Kate pieces together the shocking truth of what happened, she learns just how far a mother will go to try to save her child in this gripping tale of love, sacrifice, and survival.”
Scott Free Films’ Ridley Scott and Michael Pruss serve as producers along with Kevin J. Walsh and Brad Ingelsby. Executive producers include Ted Deiker, Scott Greenberg, Erika Olde, Sam Roseme, Nicole Jordan-Webber, and Rebecca Feuer.
Echo Valley premieres on Apple TV+ on June 13, 2025.

You’ve heard of Snakes on a Plane. You’ve heard of Flowers in the Attic. You’ve even heard of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Now, get ready for Clown in a Cornfield.
And, surprisingly, it’s not just a mashup of IT and Children of the Corn.
Clown in a Cornfield is about a teenage girl named Quinn (Katie Douglas from Pretty Hard Cases) who, along with her father (Hannibal’s Aaron Abrams), moves to a small town called Kettle Springs for a fresh start after her mother passes away. She meets a new group of friends, and despite being warned about them being “the wrong crowd,” she enjoys hanging out with them, doing teenage things like partying and making viral videos. Unfortunately, Kettle Springs has a dark secret built around the torched Baypen Corn Syrup factory that fed the town’s whole economy, and soon enough, Quinn and her friends find themselves being stalked by the brand’s creepy clown mascot, Frendo.
Directed by Eli Craig (Tucker and Dale vs. Evil) from a script written by Carter Blanchard (Independence Day: Resurgence) and Adam Cesare (Ghost Game), Clown in a Cornfield is both exactly what it seems and not at all what it seems. Of course, it’s about a clown in a cornfield. But there is also more to it than that. It’s about a town’s decay and decline, and about how the symbol of its past comes back to haunt them. But that symbol is a killer clown, so things get bloody very fast.
At its root, Clown in a Cornfield is a slasher movie, with all the effective and inventive kills that come with it. And although Eli Craig didn’t put as much inherent humor into it as he put into Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, there’s still plenty of gory fun. The practical visual effects are decent, and the splatter flows freely. With the exception of Quinn, most of the characters are faceless and exist purely as cannon fodder for the killer. And all clowns are scary, Frendo being no exception.
But Clown in a Cornfield also attempts to be a mystery of sorts, and in the beginning, it works. The audience can’t help but engage with the story and wonder what the deal with the Killer Clowns from Outer Space-meets-Terrifier murderer is. And there are plenty of surprises and twists along the way, red herrings and false flags and all that good stuff. However, ultimately, the mystery doesn’t have a satisfying solution. It’s a conclusion that the setup telegraphs from a mile away, so at that point, Clown in a Cornfield becomes just another slasher movie.
And then, there’s the social theme. Kettle Springs is a town that is in disarray after the big fire that destroyed the main employer of its residents, so the adults try to make ends meet while the kids alternate between pulling pranks and dreaming about getting out. And there’s the big rift—the old people wanting to toe the line and the young people wanting to break free from it. Both are angry and resentful, but for very different reasons. Experience vs. Youth. It’s a tale as old as time. Ain’t that America?
So, Clown in a Cornfield isn’t as corny of a movie as it sounds. But it’s still not exactly good. It kind of has that Asylum Films feel to it, low-budget fun without any real substance. Except it does have a bit of substance. Just not enough to make people think too hard about it. It’s an admirable try, but it isn’t completely successful. It doesn’t completely fail, either. It’s just…there. In the cornfield. Clowning.

CBS’s SWAT season eight episode 20 welcomes back former series star Alex Russell, but not as Jim Street. Russell returns to direct episode 20, “Devil Dog,” airing on Friday, May 9, 2025 at 9pm ET/PT.
“Devil Dog” Plot: When Hondo’s ne’er-do-well cousin, Andre, goes AWOL from his Marine base during basic training, Hondo, Deacon, and Daniel Sr. take a road trip to get the kid in line. But when they learn that Andre witnessed an illegal arms deal involving stolen military weapons, Hondo realizes there’s a darker explanation for Andre’s disappearance. And Alfaro plots to work outside the law when he discovers that his mother’s long-ago abusive ex is back in her life, repeating the violent ways of the past.
Season eight stars Shemar Moore as Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson, Jay Harrington as David “Deacon” Kay, David Lim as Victor Tan, Patrick St. Esprit as Commander Robert Hicks, and Anna Enger Ritch as Zoe Powell. Annie Ilonzeh is Devin Gamble and Niko Pepaj plays Miguel “Miko” Alfaro.
S.W.A.T. stars Shemar Moore as a former Marine and locally born and raised SWAT sergeant tasked to run a specialized tactical unit that is the last stop in law enforcement in Los Angeles. Torn between loyalty to where he was raised and allegiance to his brothers in blue, Daniel “Hondo” Harrelson strives to bridge the divide between his two worlds.
Committed to the job, Hondo is equally devoted to his marriage and fatherhood. The other members of Hondo’s elite S.W.A.T. unit include David “Deacon” Kay, an experienced S.W.A.T. officer and dedicated family man who always puts the team first; Victor Tan, who started in the LAPD Hollywood Division and uses his confidential informants in the community to help the team; Zoe Powell, a tough and loyal team member trying to reconnect with the son she gave up for adoption as a teen; and Miguel “Miko” Alfaro, a headstrong officer who overcame a troubled childhood, and is now a trusted 20-Squad addition following a rocky transfer to Los Angeles S.W.A.T.
Responsible for the management of all Metro Division S.W.A.T. units is Commander Robert Hicks, a senior LAPD official with the Special Operations Bureau. With Hondo leading the charge, these dedicated men and women bravely put themselves at risk to protect their community and save lives.
Apple TV+ is keeping The Studio open for a second season. The renewal announcement came just ahead of season one’s eighth episode debuting on May 7, 2025 and featuring guest star Zoë Kravitz.
“We’re thrilled to be making a second season of The Studio. We’re looking forward to taking the lived experience of making season one and immediately putting it into season two, then repeating that loop for ten more seasons,” stated co-creators, writers, directors, and executive producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg. “And we’re excited to keep all our industry friends and colleagues guessing as to when one of their personal stories will stream on Apple TV+.”
Rogen also stars in the comedy along with Catherine O’Hara, Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz, and Chase Sui Wonders. Season one’s guest stars include Ron Howard, Zac Efron, Dave Franco, Anthony Mackie, Olivia Wilde, Bryan Cranston, Josh Hutcherson, Rebecca Hall, and Paul Dano.

“Seth, Evan, the entire creative team, and cast of The Studio have knocked it out of the park with this brilliant show, and it has been incredible to watch the conversation grow with each new episode,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. “We can’t wait to see where Matt Remick takes Continental Studios in season two and hope for his sake that the ‘Kool-Aid’ movie crushes at the box office.”
Peter Huyck, Alex Gregory, and Frida Perez also co-created the series and serve as executive producers along with Rogen, Goldberg, James Weaver, Alex McAtee, and Josh Fagen.
“In The Studio, Rogen stars as Matt Remick, the newly appointed head of embattled Continental Studios. As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films,” reads Apple TV+’s synopsis. “With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes movies, it’s the job Matt’s been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.”
The How to Train Your Dragon IMAX trailer shows more of Hiccup and Toothless in the air and engulfed in flames. Dialogue is mostly unnecessary, and the trailer focuses on the Viking and dragon getting to know each other.
The live-action adaptation of the blockbuster animated film stars Mason Thames (The Black Phone) as Hiccup, Gerard Butler from the animated films as Chief Stoick the Vast, Nico Parker (Suncoast) as Astrid, and Nick Frost (Skeleton Crew) as Gobber. Julian Dennison (Deadpool 2), Gabriel Howell (Bodies), Bronwyn James (Wicked), Harry Trevaldwyn (Smothered), Ruth Codd (The Midnight Club), Peter Serafinowicz (Guardians of the Galaxy), and Murray McArthur (Game of Thrones) also star.
“On the rugged isle of Berk, where Vikings and dragons have been bitter enemies for generations, Hiccup (Thames) stands apart. The inventive yet overlooked son of Chief Stoick the Vast (Butler), Hiccup defies centuries of tradition when he befriends Toothless, a feared Night Fury dragon. Their unlikely bond reveals the true nature of dragons, challenging the very foundations of Viking society,” reads Universal Pictures’ synopsis. “With the fierce and ambitious Astrid (Parker) and the village’s quirky blacksmith Gobber (Frost) by his side, Hiccup confronts a world torn by fear and misunderstanding.
As an ancient threat emerges, endangering both Vikings and dragons, Hiccup’s friendship with Toothless becomes the key to forging a new future. Together, they must navigate the delicate path toward peace, soaring beyond the boundaries of their worlds and redefining what it means to be a hero and a leader.”
The original film’s writer and director Dean DeBlois returns for the live-action adaptation. Producers include DeBlois, Marc Platt, and Adam Siegel.
How to Train Your Dragon opens in theaters on June 13, 2025.
