SitcomsOnline Digest: The Upshaws Renewed for 12 Final Episodes; Beavis and Butt-Head Moving to Comedy Central
Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! This week, we are hearing of the renewal of a Netflix series, new Beavis and Butt-Head episodes (including a third season that will debut on Comedy Central), and more. Let's get going!
HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB
- The whole idea of "seasons" and "parts" honestly has us a bit confused, but it seems that The Upshaws has gotten a final renewal on Netflix. (Deadline)
- It may just be a last ditch effort to save cable, but when the third season of Beavis and Butt-Head debuts next year, it'll first debut on Comedy Central instead of Paramount+ (and also, the second season will debut on Comedy Central next month as well). (Variety)
- Christina Applegate is opening up on what life is like living with multiple sclerosis, and not surprisingly, it isn't pleasant. (Hollywood Reporter)
- Dick Van Dyke has become the oldest person to win a Daytime Emmy, for his work on Days of Our Lives. (Variety)
- It seems that Kathie Lee Gifford wanted to be part of the cast of Charlie's Angels, but an agent told her she wasn't pretty enough. (Deadline)
- A reboot of the USA series White Collar is in the works, it seems. (Entertainment Weekly)
