The series, produced by Amazon MGM Studios in association with Hello Sunshine, premieres all 8-episodes on July 1, exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. Ahead of the series' debut, Prime Video has also ordered a second season of Elle.
Season One of Elle follows Elle Woods before she was a fish-out-of-water at Harvard. We meet her in 1995 as a fish in the tumultuous waters of high school where she encounters tricky friendships, forbidden romance, and questionable fashion choices. Through it all, Elle uses her family as a touchstone, and forms an even tighter bond to her mother, proving that they can get through anything life throws their way as long as they have each other. With each challenge she faces, Elle grows closer to the Elle Woods we know and love today.
The Season One cast includes Lexi Minetree as Elle Woods, June Diane Raphael as Elle's mother Eva, and Tom Everett Scott as her father Wyatt, alongside Jacob Moskovitz, Gabrielle Policano, Chandler Kinney, Zac Looker, and Amy Pietz. Recurring cast members include Brad Harder, Chloe Wepper, Danielle Chand, David Burtka, James Van Der Beek, Jessica Belkin, Kayla Maisonet, Lisa Yamada, Logan Shroyer, Matt Oberg, and Sharon Taylor.
A summer of suspense, seduction and obsession begins with the premiere of FX's The Shards, the new drama series from executive producer Ryan Murphy based on the acclaimed bestselling novel by Bret Easton Ellis. The series will premiere Wednesday, August 5 on FX and Hulu beginning at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT, as well as on Disney+ internationally.
Set against the vivid backdrop of 1980s Los Angeles, the series follows a group of privileged high school seniors at an elite prep school as they navigate identity, sex, jealousy, obsession and the dangers lurking beneath the surface of American adolescence.
At its center is Bret (Igby Rigney), an aspiring writer and keenly observant teenager whose reality begins to unravel with the arrival of a mysterious and magnetic new student, Robert Mallory (Homer Gere). Transferring in just before his senior year, Robert's appearance coincides with the growing terror of The Trawler, a serial killer targeting teenagers across the city.
Alongside Bret is his elite social circle, which consists of Susan Reynolds (Kaia Gerber), Debbie Schaffer (Hayes Warner) and Thom Wright (Graham Campbell), a glamorous and deeply entangled group drawn into a life of wealth, beauty, parties and excess. The promise of their youth is contrasted with the dark and cynical world of the adults surrounding them: Terry Schaffer (Wes Bentley), Liz Schaffer (Evan Rachel Wood) and Steven Reinhardt (Jordan Roth).

BET announced the premiere date and debuted the official trailer for the new original single-camera comedy series Lot Patrol, from creators Manny Halley (True to the Game, Dutch) and Ernest L. Dancy. The series will premiere on BET on June 30, 2026 at 10 pm ET / 9 pm CT.
Lot Patrol follows a mismatched squad of eccentric security guards as they patrol the chaotic backlot of a major Hollywood studio, wrangling unhinged actors, rogue crew members, and their own wildly dysfunctional personal lives. Shot in a sharp-witted mockumentary style, the series blends absurd encounters, razor-sharp humor, and unexpectedly heartfelt moments, as it pulls back the curtain on the entertainment industry through the eyes of the people barely holding it together.
The ensemble comedy cast features DeRay Davis (21 Jump Street, Semi-Pro), Carl Payne (Martin, House Party), Tamera Kissen (White Men Can't Jump, House Party), Darius McCrary (Family Matters, Transformers), and comedians Skeet Carter, TK Kirkland, Alex Thomas, and Tanjareen Thomas.

Kids Make Me Angry Sneak Peek; Shrinking Adds Karen Gillan for Season 4
Kids Make Me Angry, a new Audible Original from the global entertainment superstar, entrepreneur, and author Kevin Hart, releases June 4, 2026, exclusively from Audible and sneak peek clips are now out. Part memoir, part parenting survival guide, and full of Kevin's signature comedic storytelling, this deeply personal audiobook follows Hart's 20+ year journey through fatherhood, from growing up with an absent father to becoming a deeply engaged parent of four children. Releasing two weeks ahead of Father's Day, Kids Make Me Angry delivers a timely message: being a great father is about showing up consistently, not perfectly.
Kids Make Me Angry chronicles Hart's evolution through eight transformative phases of parenthood—from early "Cluelessness," where panic and preparation collide, to "The Runaway," when learning to let go becomes the hardest lesson. With his signature blend of self-deprecating humor and raw vulnerability, Hart shares the moments that defined him as a father: teaching his 4-year-old about consequences after finding stolen toys in her backpack, jumping fully clothed into a pool to rescue his son from a Power Wheels accident, navigating "the talk" with his teenagers, and watching his daughter become class valedictorian before sending her off to college
Growing up with an absent father, Hart saw parenthood as "the opportunity of a lifetime" to redefine what fatherhood meant. His mission: to break new ground so his kids could start their families on a stronger foundation, transforming the Hart name from one associated with absence into one defined by presence, love, and mentorship. Kids Make Me Angry is Kevin’s third project with Audible, following the success of The Decision: Overcoming Today's BS for Tomorrow's Success, and Monsters & How to Tame Them.
Shrinking's circle is expanding. Karen Gillan officially joins the cast of Shrinking Season 4 on Apple TV.
Shrinking follows a grieving therapist (Jason Segel) who starts to break the rules and tell his clients exactly what he thinks. Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge, tumultuous changes to people's lives ... including his own.

Netflix's A Different World Premieres September 24; Ted Danson Joins Elizabeth Banks Apple TV Comedy
Official date and teaser are now announced for Netflix's A Different World! The new class just enrolled 🎓. A Different World premieres on Netflix September 24 with 10 episodes of the single-camera comedy.
A Different World returns to Hillman College with a new class stepping onto campus - and beloved faces coming home. At the center is Deborah Wayne (Maleah Joi Moon), Whitley and Dwayne's lovingly sheltered youngest daughter, a free spirit with a flair for the spotlight and a big heart who's still figuring out her own path at Hillman.
Along the way, she's joined by a new generation that reflects the breadth of Black life on campus: Rashida Duvall (Alijah Kai), a first gen criminal justice major; Shaquille Johnson (Cornell Young IV), a five star athlete choosing legacy; Amir Rodale (Jordan Aaron Hall), a sharp psych major better at fixing everyone else's problems than facing his own; Hazel Henry (Kennedi Reece), a church raised small town girl defining her own values; and Kojo Achebe (Chibuikem Uche), a Ghanaian Nigerian fashion entrepreneur finding the courage to follow his vision. Legacy favorites also return, including Whitley Gilbert (Jasmine Guy), Dwayne Wayne (Kadeem Hardison), Freddie Brooks (Cree Summer), and Ron Johnson (Darryl M. Bell).
Set against the rituals, humor, and nuances of an HBCU, A Different World is a hopeful dramedy, full of heart and unapologetically centered on the richness and complexity of the Black experience. Starring Maleah Joi Moon, Alijah Kai, Cornell Young IV, Jordan Aaron Hall, Kennedi Reece, and Chibuikem Uche.
He's back in the dating pool. Ted Danson joins Elizabeth Banks' new comedy series about a recent divorcée managing her father's retirement home hookups. Apple TV announced it will expand its Emmy Award-winning comedy slate with a new half-hour series led by four-time Emmy Award nominee Elizabeth Banks (The Miniature Wife, The Better Sister, 30 Rock), and hailing from creators Liz Heldens (Will Trent, Friday Night Lights) and Matt Ward (The Big Leap, Best Medicine).
The series is set to begin production in Los Angeles this year. Fresh off a messy divorce, Heidi sets out to secure a lively second act for herself and her kids. But when she stumbles into coordinating her father's retirement community sex dates, Heidi is forced into an unlikely alliance with his girlfriend's perpetually single son.
