- ... Isabella Gomez has a new role lined up, effectively filling the role that Howard Hesseman played in the original series in a HBO Max reboot of Head of the Class. (Deadline)

- Saturday Night Live hosts for December have been set, and Jason Bateman is among them. (Deadline)
- Jeopardy! has a plan to replace Alex Trebek as host, at least temporarily, with a series of rotating hosts. (Yahoo! News)
