SitcomsOnline Digest: A Look at Season 3 of The Bear; The Munsters Headed Toward a Reboot, Again

Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! It's Memorial Day weekend and one of the most unusual (and sort of disappointing, due to the lack of new content) TV seasons ever is coming to an end. Nonetheless, we're hear with news about a new season of an FX favorite, a reboot of a Showtime series, and a reboot of The Munsters... again? Let's get going!

HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB

We are getting our first look at season 3 of The Bear. (Variety)
It looks like the sequel to Nurse Jackie is moving ahead, but it is now being developed for Amazon rather than Showtime. (Variety)
If it seems like we already went through this, we did... but they're trying to reboot The Munsters again. (Deadline)
Young Sheldon and Suits are big hits for Netflix. (Deadline)
Unlike what happened with Disney, Spectrum was able to resolve their contract renewal with Paramount without any blackouts or permanent removal of fringe cable networks, and they're even going a step further by giving subscribers access to Paramount+ and BET+. (Variety)
There is an unusual cameo appearance that you may have missed in the penultimate episode of Young Sheldon. (Deadline)
HBO has ordered a Steve Carell comedy series. (SitcomsOnline)
