Nobody Wants This Season 3 Returns October 22; Sam Morril Is Incorrect for Netflix
Season 3 of Nobody Wants This returns to Netflix on Thursday, October 22, 2026. In addition to the date announcement, the first look photos and teaser art were released.
Last season... first comes love, then comes life. The last time we saw agnostic podcast host Joanne (Kristen Bell) and unconventional (hot) rabbi Noah (Adam Brody), their unmatched chemistry surprised everyone in their lives, including her sister Morgan (Justine Lupe), his brother Sasha (Timothy Simons) and sister-in-law Esther (Jackie Tohn), and even themselves. Their spark proved stronger than all of the obstacles trying to keep them apart. Now, they're back and fully committed to merging their lives - and loved ones - together. But their differences still exist and can't be ignored. The challenge now is not just falling in love against all odds, but staying together in spite of them.
The series stars Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, Jackie Tohn, Andrew Rannells, Sarah Silverman, Shiloh Bearman, Sherry Cola, Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitchcock, Paul Ben-Victor, and Tovah Feldshuh.
Sam Morril is returning to Netflix with a new one-hour special, Incorrect. The special premieres globally on September 29, 2026.
In addition to writing and performing, Sam Morril also directed and executive- produced the special. Molly Mandel, Daniel Powell, and Alex Bach are also Executive Producers. Sam Morril brings his razor-sharp wit to the stage, taking aim at his worst one-night stand gone wrong, the dark humor of infamous assassinations, and his bizarrely unorthodox war against rats.

Fox Orders Mammoth, Comedy from Modern Family Producers; Peacock's Fan Level Midnight: Devoted to The Office Docuseries
Fox has greenlit Mammoth, a new comedy series from Modern Family's twelve-time Emmy Award-winning co-creator/executive producer Christopher Lloyd and five-time Emmy-winning executive producer/writer Danny Zuker. Produced by Fox Entertainment Studios with BBC Studios Los Angeles executive producing, the series is distributed worldwide by Fox Entertainment Global.
Mammoth follows Coach Tony Mammoth, a larger-than-life high school gym teacher whose life is put on ice in 1983, when he's buried in a freak ski avalanche. Forty years later, he thaws out to a world that has completely changed...but he's convinced it really didn't need to. Still clinging to life in the '80s - complete with his Burt Reynolds moustache and treasured Trans-AM -- Mammoth returns to the job he loves, only to discover that today's rules, relationships, and realities bear little resemblance to the world he once knew.
Based on the original BBC Studios U.K. production of the same name and created by Welsh comedian and writer Mike Bubbins, Mammoth is produced by Fox Entertainment Studios. Lloyd and Zuker serve as writers, showrunners, and executive producers, alongside executive producers Mark Linsey and Angie Stephenson of BBC Studios Los Angeles, and Bubbins. Mammoth is slated to debut on Fox during the 2027-28 season.
The Office may have ended, but for fans around the world, Dunder Mifflin is still very much in business. On Sunday, September 7, Fan Level Midnight: Devoted to The Office makes its exclusive streaming premiere on Peacock. The six-part docuseries explores the enduring legacy, cultural impact and devoted fanbase behind the beloved series through never-before-heard stories, original interviews with cast and creatives including Kathy Bates, Seth Rogen and Andy Buckley, archival interviews and more.
Going beyond the rewatch, Fan Level Midnight takes a closer look at the people whose lives have been changed by The Office - from fans who found community and connection through the series to those who have carried lessons from the show into their own lives. Twenty years later, the fandom is bigger than ever (that’s what she said), proving The Office isn’t just a show people love to watch - it’s a world fans continue to live in, celebrate and pass on.
Fans can stream all nine seasons of The Office, plus all nine seasons of Peacock-exclusive The Office: Superfan Episodes, featuring longer cuts of beloved episodes packed with never-before-seen footage, re-cut scenes and rare bonus moments. Then, keep the binge going with the documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch and their new subjects: the staff of The Toledo Truth Teller when Season 2 of The Paper, on September 9.

BET's Lot Patrol Bonus Episodes; Netflix Renews Tires for Season 4
Following the highly successful debut of Manny Halley Productions' hit original comedy series Lot Patrol on BET, it was revealed that five bonus episodes will premiere Tuesday, November 3, at 9:30 PM ET/CT, rounding out season one with 10 full episodes. The five bonus episodes will be shot at IMANI Studio, Manny Halley's newly rebranded production facility in Pacoima, formerly operated as Quixote North Valley Studios.
Debuted this summer on BET with record ratings, Lot Patrol presents a laugh-out-loud look at Hollywood from a perspective the industry rarely shows and features a who's who of comedy talent, including DeRay Davis (21 Jump Street, Semi-Pro), Carl Anthony Payne II (Martin, House Party), Tamera Kissen (White Men Can't Jump, House Party), and comedians Skeet Carter, TK Kirkland, Alex Thomas, Tanjareen Thomas, Lionell Dalton,Nick Nervies, Dawn Raven, Iyana Halley, and G Thang.
In Lot Patrol, a mismatched squad of eccentric security guards patrols 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, Lot Patrol blends absurd encounters, razor-sharp urban humor, and unexpectedly heartfelt moments, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the industry through the eyes of those barely holding it together.
Together, they bring to life a comedy series rooted in BET's pillars of community, culture, and connection, finding all three in the most unlikely crew: underpaid dreamers, washed-up has-beens, and borderline con artists just trying to hold it together on the world's most chaotic lot.
Netflix announced that the comedy series, Tires, has been renewed for a fourth season. The news arrives as Tires season three earned its highest-ever ranking on the Global Top 10 English TV list, reaching #5 the week of August 17, 2026.
Will (Steve Gerben), the nervous and unqualified heir to an auto repair chain, attempts to turn his father's business around despite constant torture from his cousin and now employee, Shane (Gillis). While settling in as part owners, Will and Shane struggle to keep Valley Forge afloat. Just as their business and friendship hit a breaking point, Will and Shane look to their past to figure out the future.
Tires, starring, co-created and co-written by Shane Gillis, alongside co-creator, director and EP John McKeever and star, co-creator and EP Steve Gerben, has filmed all three seasons in the Pennsylvania region, working with more than 250 local vendors and businesses across six towns - including West Chester, Philadelphia, Phoenixville, Oaks, Frazer, and Glenside.
