Discovery Channel offers this synopsis: “For the first time ever, 12 battle-tested survivalists take on a scorched, apocalyptic wasteland where they must scavenge ruins to survive in the all-new series Naked and Afraid: Apocalypse. In locations long abandoned by humans, the survivalists face the franchise’s toughest challenge yet as they endure extreme heat and drought as well as unpredictable lions, elephants, black mambas, and more without food, water, and clothing.

Four teams are dropped into forgotten corners of South Africa—spanning a ghost town, a vehicle junkyard, a cemetery, and even a mine shaft—where they must scavenge the wreckage for resources. In a franchise first, survivalists will not be extracted but must escape this wasteland and find their way back to civilization at the end of the challenge. All the while, they must also battle relentless threats from apex predators, endure punishing heat and navigate constant dangers from rusted metal and broken glass.

In the premiere episode, camps turn old tires into shoes and use barbed wire as protection from aggressive lions. A rogue elephant forces one camp to make shelter from junked cars.”

‘Alone’ Season 12 Episode 6 Recap: “Purpose”

Alone Season 12 Dug North

The History Channel’s Alone season 12 episode five ended with Dug passing out. Episode six doesn’t make viewers wait to find out what happened, picking up Dug’s story moments after episode five ended.

Episode six, “Purpose,” begins with five participants surviving (but not thriving) in South Africa’s Great Karoo Desert. By the end of the hour, only four remain in the quest for the grand prize of $500,000. The following is a detailed recap of what went down, and there are spoilers. You’ve been warned.

Dug North: Age 53, Nashua, NH
Day 14, 12:08pm – Dug comes to after fainting, describing his fall over the camera case and into a non-spiny bush. He’s well-fed and well-rested but hasn’t been drinking enough water. This is a wake-up call, reminding him to drink and take more breaks. Dug admits he was really lucky that he fell near camp and not out where he could have fallen down a cliff. He’s also lucky he fell into a bush instead of onto a boulder.

He returns to his shelter and lies down, ready to rest and drink more water.

4:11pm – Dug looked at the footage and realized that if he had fallen anywhere else, it would have been a disaster. He needs to think hard about his safety, and although his ego wants more than 14 days, Dug says he needs to consider his future. Dug believes it wasn’t just lack of water that caused him to pass out, and he decides to tap.

“It’s been a hell of an adventure, for sure,” says Dug. Passing out crossed his safety line, and he’s surprised it wasn’t a dangerous animal or reptile that ended up being the cause. He promised his wife he’d only stay as long as it felt safe. Fainting was a warning signal that he needs to leave the competition.

Alone Season 12 Kelsey Loper

Kelsey Loper: Age 35, Winnett, Montana
Day 14, 1:13pm – Kelsey’s hanging out in her shelter thinking about the food she could be eating. A personal favorite? Cookie dough. Break over, she heads out hunting while admitting she’s tired. The rain’s moved on, but she’s exhausted from the storm.

She’s still rationing her warthog but needs a fresh kill.

Kelsey is stunned to spot two giraffes nearby. They run off, but she hears grunting, indicating something else is close. She spots two warthogs, but they run up the hill before she gets a shot off. They have bad eyesight but have great hearing.

Day 16, 11:26am – Kelsey does some pushups outside her shelter and then tests to make sure she can still pull her bow back. She can, but it’s getting harder. Every day she walks in a loop, hunting while she still has energy. She doesn’t know where the warthogs have gone and must keep her potential targets to what a 50-pound bow can take down.

There’s a wildebeest nearby, but it requires a 60+ pound recurve bow. Kelsey thinks her competitors might have taken down bigger game than a warthog and believes she came in as the underdog. She heads back on her loop to camp, telling herself she’ll try again tomorrow.

12:42pm – Kelsey returns to camp and admits she probably went too far. She heads to the river and learns her bobber has been snagged in the weeds. Carefully, she attempts to work it free and realizes there’s a fish on it. She reminds herself to take it easy as she pulls in a small catfish. It’s 15 inches and worth about 480 calories.

1:26pm – Kelsey builds a small stove to cook her fish, which she thinks will be enough for one full meal.

2:19pm – The makeshift stovetop explodes due to heat trapped within it while it cooks. Fortunately, Kelsey’s far enough away that she isn’t injured. She gathers the fish, which she was just about to take off, while asking THC to show it in slow motion. THC obliges, and it looks pretty cool as it explodes in slo-mo.

2:53pm – Kelsey’s ready to eat her fish, dirt and all. She cooked it with rice and salt and uses a utensil she made earlier in the season to eat. This catfish took very little energy, and she does a happy catfish dance as she eats. She wonders if her competitors have full bellies while admitting that in order to be mentally and physically strong, she needs to do daily walks.

Nathan Olsen: Age 52, Buhl, Idaho
Day 15, 9:43am – Nathan’s loving the sunshine after the unexpected rainstorm. He needs to start working on his long-term shelter and begins to construct a permanent rock house out of shale stone. He’s targeting a 5’x10’ building and believes he has the calories right now to actually complete the job.

Nathan thinks stone makes sense using the dry stack method, with sand in the middle. It’s an old technique, and The History Channel notes he’s burning 300 calories an hour working on it. Hours later, he’s got the walls about a foot high and calls it a day.

Day 16, 9:41am – Nathan has a mouse out on a hook and finds a False Karoo Burrower scorpion to use as more bait. Fishing stopped for him when the rain hit, and he hasn’t caught anything since day nine. He’s trying to figure out whether to concentrate on fishing or hunting, and for now he thinks he’ll stick with fishing.

He returns to his shelter project and admits that people watching are probably saying building something that requires so many calories and so much energy is what contestants do right before they tap out. But Nathan thinks building this fort like he’s 12 is fun, and working on the shelter brings up childhood memories.

He stops to check on his fish lines, but nothing’s hooked yet.

Nathan stops work on his shelter when it’s about hip high.

Alone Season 12 Baha Mahmutov

Baha Mahmutov: Age 50, Wharncliff, Ontario, Canada
Day 15, 2:12pm – Baha says the sun feels good as he explores a new area for hunting. He spots a greater kudu but isn’t within bow shot range. (He’d like to be within 30 yards.) Baha decides to try and intercept him by climbing up the hill. He stops on his climb and realizes he’s lost the kudu. It’s blended in with the hill.

Baha’s disappointed and knows he needs food fast.

4:16pm – He opts to have buffalo thorn leaves for dinner and heads out to collect them. As he picks them up, the needles sting him. He brings back two handfuls of buffalo thorn leaves and cooks them in his pot. Baha says he’ll do anything for his family and describes the leaves as tasting like strange spice-flavored potato chips.

Day 16, 3:26pm – Baha’s in his shelter thinking about a weird dream from the night before. He knows it’s going to be a cold night and decides he needs to build a stove. The clay in the area is good for making bricks, and he started work on some on day four. Fire inside his shelter will make him much more comfortable.

To make the fireplace, he needs bricks and wet clay as a mortar. He didn’t bring a blanket but did bring a warm jacket and overalls. Baha thinks that with the fireplace, he should have enough heat. It’s not long before he’s exhausted and finishes up three layers before stopping.

9:27pm – Baha stands by his fire, happy to see stars again. He hopes his wife and kids are okay without him. If he wins, it will help his entire family. His sister passed away at 40, and he’s raising her two children. “I feel like I have to provide; I have to support my family as much as I can,” says Baha. “I cannot quit that responsibility. It’s just in me.”

He wants a better, brighter future for his family. Baha misses his sister a lot, but she’s always with him in his heart.

Apple TV+’s Stick won’t be one and done, with the streamer officially renewing the sports comedy for a second season. The renewal announcement was made on the day of the first season finale’s release.

“I think we all had a great time making it,” stated series star and executive producer Owen Wilson. “It’s really nice to see the show connecting with people and to know that we get a chance to continue the story!”

Apple TV+ reports first season stars, including Wilson, Peter Dager, Marc Maron, Mariana Treviño, and Lilli Kay, will return for season two. Season one premiered on June 4, 2025 and consisted of 10 episodes. The streamer didn’t confirm the episode count for season two, or when fans can expect it to premiere.

Professional golfers Collin Morikawa, Keegan Bradley, Max Homa, and Wyndham Clark popped in as guest stars on season one. Broadcasters Jim Nantz and Trevor Immelman appeared in cameos, along with Good Good’s Matt Scharff, Brad Dalke, and Garrett Clark.

“I am inspired and humbled by the audience reaction to Stick, and I’m thrilled to be making a second season with this magical cast, led by the incomparable Owen Wilson, and the wonderful creative team at Apple TV+,” said creator Jason Keller. “It’s a joy to be able to continue this story. Most importantly, however, this season two order will provide me with an undeniable excuse to play even more golf. Thank you, Apple TV+.”

Showrunner Jason Keller executive produces along with Wilson, Ben Silverman, Guymon Casady, Howard T. Owens, Rodney Ferrell, and Drew Buckley. Additional executive producers include Lee Eisenberg, Natalie Sandy, Christopher Moynihan, Bill Callahan, Valerie Faris, Jonathan Dayton, and Jaffar Mahmood.

“In Stick season one, Wilson stars as Pryce Cahill, an over-the-hill, ex-pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely 20 years ago,” reads Apple TV+’s synopsis. “After the collapse of his marriage and while working at an Indiana sporting goods store, Pryce hedges his bets and future entirely on a troubled 17-year-old golf phenom named Santi (Dager). Stick is a heartfelt, feel-good sports comedy about a found family and their relationships set within the world of golf as it has never been shown before.”

‘Wednesday’ Starring Jenna Ortega is Renewed for Season 3

Netflix’s Wednesday had a three-year break between season one, which debuted in November 2022, and season two, set for an August 6, 2025 premiere. To be fair, the world was dealing with Covid-19, and Hollywood was hit with writers and actors strikes during the gap years. Today, the streamer confirmed the series has been renewed for season three but didn’t announce a target premiere date.

Netflix’s renewal announcement also didn’t provide any casting or plot details.

“It’s been a dark delight to watch Wednesday cast her spell over audiences across the globe—one deadpan quip at a time. We’re beyond thrilled she’ll be returning to stalk the halls of Nevermore in Season 3. This time, she’ll unearth more of the school’s sinister secrets—and descend even deeper into the Addams family crypt. Or, as Wednesday would say: ‘Nothing brings a family together like a good exhumation,'” stated series creators, writers, and showrunners Alfred Gough and Miles Millar.

The first season holds Netflix’s record for its most popular English-language series. According to the streamer, it amassed 1 billion hours viewed after just three weeks.

“The undeniable impact of Wednesday resonated immediately with fans worldwide, driving it to the top of our charts as our most popular English language TV show, and sparking cultural trends. We are so proud of Al Gough, Miles Millar, Tim Burton, Jenna Ortega, and the entire Wednesday cast and crew for everything they’ve accomplished,” said Bela Bajaria, Netflix Chief Content Officer. “On the heels of its highly anticipated season two return, we are thrilled to renew the iconic series for a third and to deliver more of what the fans love.”

Season two is divided into two parts, with part one dropping on August 6, followed by part two on September 3. Netflix offers this description of what’s in store: “Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. This season, Wednesday must navigate family, friends, and old adversaries, propelling her into another year of delightfully dark and kooky mayhem. Armed with her signature razor-sharp wit and deadpan charm, Wednesday is also plunged into a new bone-chilling supernatural mystery.”
