Lifetime adds to its successful Girl In franchise with the new Ripped from the Headlines movie Girl in the Attic, starring Jean Louisa Kelly (Yes, Dear, Top Gun: Maverick), Sophia Carriere (Girls Like Girls, Fame: A Temptations Story), and Keenan Tracey (Bates Motel, Polaroid). Inspired by real stories, the gripping drama sheds light on the perils of online exposure and the strength it takes to overcome the darkest of circumstances. Premiering Saturday, June 14 at 8/7c the harrowing and suspenseful film delves into the resilience of the human spirit and the power of unlikely alliances in the face of unimaginable terror.

Girl in the Attic follows Kelsey (Sophia Carriere), a determined young woman grieving the loss of her mother. To honor her mother's memory Kelsey decides to run a marathon and shares her journey online to raise money. However, her public posts catch the attention of Billy (Keenan Tracey), a seemingly unassuming grocery store worker who has put his own dreams on hold to care for his mother Debbie (Jean Louisa Kelly), a former dancer now confined to a wheelchair after a spinal cord injury. Billy quickly becomes obsessed with Kelsey and devises a sinister plan to abduct her after she posts where she'll be on her next run. Intent on making Kelsey his wife, Billy hides her away in the attic of the home he shares with Debbie. Bound and isolated, Kelsey is forced to endure years of torment as Billy controls her every move and exploits her through online videos for financial gain. In a shocking turn of events, Debbie discovers Kelsey's imprisonment and now the two women must band together before it's too late...

Will Hutchins

Actor Will Hutchins, who starred as Woody Banner in Hey, Landlord and as Dagwood Bumstead in Blondie (1968-1969), has died. He died of respiratory failure at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, New York, on April 21. Mr. Hutchins was 94.

Hey, Landlord - Will Hutchins and Sandy Baron

Hutchins starred as Woody Banner in the short-lived 1966-1967 CBS sitcom Hey, Landlord. Woody Banner learns that his uncle has died and that he has inherited from him a New York City brownstone apartment building in Manhattan's East 30s as its landlord. It served as the first TV show as co-creator/producer for Garry Marshall. The series also starred Sandy Baron, Pamela Rodgers, Miko Mayama, Michael Constantine, Ann Morgan Guilbert, and Kathryn Minner.

Blondie

He starred as Dagwood Bumstead in the short-lived 1968-1969 CBS sitcom Blondie. The series is an updated version of the 1957 TV series based on the comic strip of the same name. The series stars Patricia Harty as the title character and Will Hutchins as her husband, Dagwood Bumstead. Other cast members included Jim Backus, Peter Robbins, Pamelyn Ferdin, Henny Backus, Bobbi Jordan, and Bryan O'Byrne.

Hutchins was best known for his role as Tom "Sugarfoot" Brewster in the 1957-1961 ABC western Sugarfoot. Tom Brewster was an Easterner who comes to the Oklahoma Territory to become a lawyer. Brewster was a correspondence-school student whose apparent lack of cowboy skills earned him the nickname "Sugarfoot", a designation even below that of a tenderfoot. Hutchins was the only regular on the show.

He guest starred in a 1972 episode of Love, American Style. Some of his other television guest appearances included Conflict (3 episodes), Matinee Theatre (4 episodes), 77 Sunset Strip (2 episodes), Maverick, Cheyenne, The Roaring 20's, Bronco, Surfside 6, Gunsmoke, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, Perry Mason, The New Perry Mason, Emergency!, Chase, Movin' On, and The Streets of San Francisco.

Hutchins co-starred with Elvis Presley as Lt. Tracy Richards in Spinout (1966) and as Tom Wilson/"Scott Hayward" in Clambake (1967). He played real-life American scout Frederick Russell Burnham in Shanghai Patrol (1970).

Mr. Hutchins was a talented and versatile actor. He later became a ringmaster and a clown for various circuses. We thank him for his work on television and in films. He will be greatly missed.


Wink Martindale

Disc jockey, radio personality, game show host and television producer Wink Martindale, who hosted Gambit and Tic-Tac-Dough, has died. He died from lymphoma at a hospital in Rancho Mirage, California, on April 15. Mr. Martindale was 91.

He hosted the 1987-1988 syndicated version of High Rollers. He hosted the 1996-1998 Lifetime game show Debt for two seasons.

Dave's World - Wink Martindale and Bea Arthur

He guest starred as himself in an episode of the 1983 ABC sitcom Just Our Luck. He does a burlesque quiz show in which he couldn't seem to give away anything. In 1997, he appeared as himself with Bea Arthur in an episode of the CBS sitcom Dave's World. Some of his other television guest appearances included Equal Justice and The Bold and the Beautiful (4 episodes as Reverend Brown). He provided the voice of Wink Martiandale in a 1987 episode of The Jetsons and Sphinx Martindale in a 1998 episode of Hercules.

Martindale started his career as a disc jockey. His rendition of the spoken-word song "Deck of Cards" went to No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and sold over a million copies in 1959.

He was interviewed for The Interviews: An Oral History of Television on April 11, 2017.

Mr. Martindale was a game show host legend. He hosted or was involved in the production of over 20 game shows. On October 13, 2007, he was one of the first inductees into the American TV Game Show Hall of Fame in Las Vegas. We thank him for the entertainment during his career. He will be sorely missed.


Patrick Adiarte

We also remember Filipino-American actor Patrick Adiarte. He had a recurring role as Ho-Jon in the first and second seasons of M*A*S*H. He died of pneumonia on April 15 in a Los Angeles-area hospital. Mr. Adiarte was 82.

The Brady Bunch - Mike Lookinland, Patrick Adiarte and Christopher Knight

He guest starred as David in two episodes of the ABC sitcom The Brady Bunch in 1972. In "Hawaii Bound" and "Pass the Tabu", he is the construction gofer who gives the kids a tour before things get chaotic when Bobby discovers a small tiki idol that could be cursed.

Adiarte guest starred in a 1973 episode of The New Temperatues Rising. Some of his other television credits included CBS Playhouse, It Takes a Thief, Ironside, Bonanza, Hawaii Five-O (1972), and Kojak (2 episodes). He was a regular dancer on the 1965-1966 NBC musical variety series Hullabaloo.

Dean Jones, who had appeared in two of the films (The Love Bug and Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo), reprises his role of Jim Douglas, Herbie's original owner, now a retired race car driver who works as an instructor at the Famous Driving School with his partner Bo Phillips (Richard Paul). The series also starred Patricia Harty, Claudia Wells, Douglas Emerson, Bryan Utman, Larry Linville, and Natalie Core.

Mr. Katt began his career as a child actor, and as an adult, frequently played unsympathetic characters or villains. We thank him for his work on television and in films. He will be sorely missed.

Apple TV+ Announces Comedy Series Prodigies; ABC Renews Unscripted Series Slate

Will Sharpe and Ayo Edebiri

Apple TV+ announced the new seven-episode comedy Prodigies, starring BAFTA and SAG Award winner Will Sharpe (The White Lotus, A Real Pain) and Emmy and SAG Award winner Ayo Edebiri (The Bear, After the Hunt). The series is created, written and directed by Sharpe and produced by the Emmy Award and BAFTA Award-winning SISTER. Edebiri will also serve as an executive producer on the series.

This unusual take on a classic romantic comedy explores the universal complexities of long-term relationships through the lens of a very unique couple. Didi (Edebiri) and Ren (Sharpe) are two ex-child prodigies who have been together since they were children. Now in their early 30s, they are starting to question whether their very ordinary existence is living up to the extraordinary promise of their childhood. Inevitably, they find themselves asking the same questions of their relationship. As individual hopes and needs feed into and conflict with their shared lives, the series challenges the fallacy at the heart of romantic storytelling - that the tale is over when the heroes get together. In life, surely, that is just the beginning?


Robert Irwin and Mel Owens

Hulu's inaugural Get Real house brought the biggest names in unscripted television to Beverly Hills for a day of memorable onstage moments, major announcements and high-impact activations from Hulu, ABC and Freeform's robust unscripted TV portfolio.

Twisted Metal S2 Premieres July 31 Only On Peacock. The stakes couldn't be higher as John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) risk their lives to compete in a dangerous demolition derby tournament. The prize? A single wish, their greatest heart's desire, granted. The only problem is sixteen other drivers have wishes of their own. Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz lead a stellar cast, including Will Arnett & Joe Seanoa (aka Samoa Joe) as fan favorite Sweet Tooth, and Anthony Carrigan as the iconic tournament host Calypso, in a fast-paced, hysterical, thrilling season with unforgettable characters. It's too bad not all of them will survive.

Following the revelations in the season one finale, John and Quiet find themselves entering the deadly Twisted Metal tournament, a sinister demolition derby hosted by a mysterious man known as Calypso. As they try to survive an onslaught of dangerous new foes and familiar faces alike, including the murderous clown Sweet Tooth, things get complicated for John when he reunites with his long-lost sister, the vigilante Dollface.




Poker Face

She's back on her bull****. Poker Face Season 2 arrives May 8 on Peacock. Charlie Cale is back on the run, and in Season 2 has taken her journey to the next level one murder mystery at a time. From minor league baseball to big box retail, from funeral homes to alligator farms and even a grade school talent show, Charlie navigates her crime solving existential road-trip with deadpan wit, human empathy, and her signature uncanny lie-detecting ability.

To bring Season 2 to life, they pulled visual inspiration from American '70s cinema, all the stuff you love like Robert Altman, Bob Rafelson, Peter Bogdanovich. But the backbone of this show is TV - the kind of TV we grew up watching, episodic case of the week gems like Columbo and The Rockford Files and Quantum Leap. Each episode is a mini movie, existing in its own world with a unique tone and vibe, featuring an eccentric lot of characters played by a truly gonzo parade of guest stars like Cynthia Erivo, Katie Holmes, John Mulaney, Jason Ritter, and Awkwafina (and many many more, the list is kinda dizzying) who all dove into the game with joy and came ready to play.

Twelve killer new episodes are coming your way. Buckle up and see you on the road!

Atsuko Okatsuka

Atsuko Okatsuka: Father will premiere on Friday, June 13 on Hulu, and is the eighth Original special in Hulu's new stand-up comedy slate, Hularious. Fans call her 'Mother,' but Atsuko is 'Father'—thriving professionally yet clueless about basics. A 7-year laundry hiatus and learning that marriage licenses precede weddings are just some hilariously relatable discoveries she shares in her special.

Atsuko Okatsuka is a comedian and actress making waves across the globe with her one-of-a-kind humor, boundless energy, and infectious charm. The Hulu special follows the massive success of Atsuko's debut special The Intruder (HBO), which The New York Times called the "Best Debut Special of 2022" and Vulture and Variety named one of the "Best Specials of 2022." Atsuko's unique style of comedy — blending joy with vulnerability and unforgettable storytelling — is captivating audiences worldwide.

BET+ Orders Martin Spinoff Varnell Hill; It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Returns in July

Tommy Davidson

BET+ has greenlit Varnell Hill, a workplace comedy series based on the beloved character made famous by actor and comedian Tommy Davidson from the original series Martin, which starred Martin Lawrence, Tisha Campbell, Tichina Arnold, Thomas Mikal Ford, and Carl Anthony Payne. Davidson is set to star, reprising his namesake guest role. The straight-to-series order will showcase a mixture of exciting new characters and celebrity guest cameos.

Set behind the scenes of a long-running late-night talk show, The Varnell Hill Show is a workplace comedy that delves into the chaotic world of television production. The series explores Varnell's journey to remain relevant in an ever-evolving industry and the corporate dynamics of network executives, business stakeholders, and creative teams involved in the making of the show. With its blend of satire, humor, cutaways, and fourth-wall breaks, the show promises to engage audiences in a fresh and innovative way. Martin Lawrence, co-creator, will serve as an executive producer. Co-creator, writer, and director Bentley Kyle Evans will serve as showrunner and executive producer. Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon, Andy Horne, Stacy Lyles, Robert Lawrence, and Rae Proctor will also serve as executive producers. Rose Catherine Pinkney and Jason Harvey will executive produce for BET+. The series will be produced by Bentley Evans and his production team. Production for the new season and a premiere will be announced at a later date.


It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

FX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the longest-running live-action comedy series in television history, will premiere its 17th season on Wednesday, July 9. The premiere will include the first two episodes beginning at 9 p.m. ET/PT on FXX, with episodes streaming next day on Hulu. The new season is also coming to Disney+ internationally. The first promo for season 17 was also released - see below. The fan-favorite, ever-inventive series marks the 20th anniversary of its series premiere this year. The new season will include The Gang's take on meeting ABC's Abbott Elementary in the conclusion to the highly-anticipated crossover.

In the latest season, "The Gang Embraces The Corporate Era:" The story of how greed and the New American Dream have consumed Paddy's Pub. Seventeen seasons on, Ronald "Mac" MacDonald (Rob McElhenney), Charlie Kelly (Charlie Day), Dennis Reynolds (Glenn Howerton), Dee Reynolds (Kaitlin Olson), and Frank Reynolds (Danny DeVito) return to shamelessly shed their "niche" label for grander aspirations. They'll exploit cross-network promotion to increase market share; they'll scapegoat one of their own to avoid a PR backlash; they'll risk everything for a handshake with the Saudis; they'll bend the laws with side hustles to pad their pockets; and they'll change everything about themselves to appeal to a broader audience. And sure, like any corporate goon, the Gang craves money and parasitic social privileges. That's been plain since 2005. But they're also human beings. They crave love.. respect... conditional freedom... constant adulation... histrionic amounts of attention... non-stop gratification... and unfiltered, slaphappy eroticism.

Laura Linney

Premium linear channel and streaming service MGM+ announced that four-time Emmy Award winner Laura Linney (Ozark) will star alongside Kevin Kline (Disclaimer) and Jon Tenney (The Closer, Scandal) in American Classic, the upcoming half-hour comedy series from co-creators Michael Hoffman (Soapdish, Restoration, The Last Station) and Bob Martin (The Prom, Slings and Arrows). The series from FIFTH SEASON, with Mar-Key Pictures, Likely Story and Anonymous Content producing, begins production in New Jersey this summer.

American Classic centers on Broadway star and notorious narcissist Richard Bean (Kline), who suffers a spectacular public meltdown and returns to his hometown and the family-run theater where he first became aware of his own brilliance. When he arrives, he is shocked to discover that his father, the former artistic director, has lost a step and that the once-respected theater, now run by his brother Jon (Tenney) and his wife (Linney) has become, by necessity, a low-rent dinner theater serving roast beef and murder mysteries. He decides to save the town, the theater, and the world by presenting a great American classic on the dinner theater stage, directed by and starring, of course, Richard Bean.

Linney will play Kristen Forrest Bean, who grew up acting in the Millersburg Festival Theater founded and run by the Bean family. Kristen fell in love with Richard Bean at age 19 and ran off with him to try to make it in NY. Once there, Richard's egotism served him better than Kristen's quiet intensity and it was his career that took off. Kristen became increasingly frustrated and finally packed up and went home to Millersburg - Where she eventually married Richard's younger brother, Jon, and had their daughter Miranda. As the recently appointed Mayor of Millersburg, Kristen directs her passion as well as her strong practical side toward helping to keep the family theater alive.

Classic TV Come to Life: Television Treasures from the Dr. Stewart Berkowitz Collection

Classic TV Comes to Life: Television Treasures from the Dr. Stewart Berkowitz Collection from Wednesday, April 16, 2025 – Sunday, May 25, 2025 at The Paley Museum, 25 West 52 Street, NYC. Long before the internet, smartphones, and personal computers, nothing captured our collective imagination and wonder like classic television series. Beloved shows like I Love Lucy, The Honeymooners, and Happy Days were touchstones for several generations of Americans. From Lucy Ricardo to Ralph Kramden to Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli, these characters helped shape our childhoods—and our lives. Now The Paley Museum invites you to experience your favorite classic TV shows with life-size figures in authentic costumes. PLUS the set from The Tonight Starring Johnny Carson.

This exclusive exhibit features rare treasures from the collection of the late Dr. Stewart Berkowitz, who turned his love for the TV shows from his youth into a passion for collecting. Dr. Berkowitz spent decades combing the country and lovingly assembling the costumes, props, and artifacts from his most-adored programs, including The Honeymooners (his favorite show of all time), The Andy Griffith Show, I Love Lucy, The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The Love Boat, The Flying Nun, and Happy Days. As Dr. Berkowitz collected these rare and essential costumes of TV history, he helped bring them to life by commissioning stunning life-like mannequins from designer Greg Maraio.
