As Lizz Winstead, a brave comic and activist, navigates the tricky landscape of reproductive rights, No One Asked You takes us into a world where laughter and dissent clash. In a society trying to figure out what is right and wrong, this documentary follows a political struggle and an existential quest.

As Winstead and her friends set out on the Magical Mystery Tour, a moving trip through states where access to abortion is masked in darkness, comedy becomes a weapon against systemic oppression in this case.

After the shock of Roe v. Wade, the film changes from what was originally planned as a series to a serious narrative. Winstead, co-founder of Abortion Access Front, uses her comedic skills as a call to action for justice to break down the shame around abortion.

Her goal goes beyond simple advocacy; it explores the essence of human autonomy, forcing us to confront what...

In the last seven years, there has been a positive glut of "Star Trek" introduced into the world. Just as the Upn launched with the debut of "Star Trek: Voyager in 1995," so did the new streaming service CBS All Access launch with the debut of "Star Trek: Discovery" in 2017. This was the first "Star Trek" TV series on the airwaves since the cancelation of "Star Trek: Enterprise" in 2005, and many Trekkies were eager to see if the franchise could be restarted. An entirely new creative team had taken over "Star Trek," and they sought to update the decades-old series for a streaming audience.

"Discovery," we would later learn, was only one of many "Star Trek" projects that would debut on CBS All Access — later renamed Paramount+ — over the next few years. To keep people subscribed, Paramount produced "Short Treks." As a hook for fans of "Star Trek: The Next Generation,...

In a recent Tvo interview on ‘The Agenda,’ actor Robert Picardo shared some exciting updates about the upcoming ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.’

While filming in Toronto, Picardo, who will return as the holographic Doctor from ‘Star Trek: Voyager,’ mentioned that the show is expected to premiere in early 2026.

During the interview, Picardo couldn’t share many details about the new series due to a strict NDA.

However, he did express his joy in reprising his iconic role, a character he originally portrayed starting in 1995.

He also shared a fun tidbit about his initial audition for a different role on ‘Voyager,’ which led to his casting as the Doctor.

‘Starfleet Academy’ is set in the 32nd century and follows the reopening of the academy after a catastrophic event known as The Burn.

The series will feature new faces like Kerrice Brooks, Bella Shepard, George Hawkins, Karim Diané, Zoë Steiner, and Sandro Rosta as students.

“Star Trek: Starfleet Academy” has been renewed for Season 2 at Paramount+ before Season 1 even has a premiere date.

The announcement was made as part of the “Star Trek” Universe panel at New York Comic-Con on Saturday. It was also announced at the panel that “Orphan Black” alum Tatiana Maslany is set to appear in Season 1 of the Paramount+ series in a guest star role. The exact details of the character she will be playing are being kept under wraps.

“Star Trek” mainstay Robert Picardo made a surprise appearance at the panel to introduce a livestream from the set of Season 1 of “Starfleet Academy.” In the livestream, co-showrunner Alex Kurtzman announced to the cast that the show had been renewed.

The official logline for the series states that it “will follow the adventures of a new class of Starfleet cadets as they come of age in one of the most legendary places in the galaxy.

Bob Hearts Abishola season 6 is not confirmed, as season 5 was announced as the series finale. 11 main Bob Hearts Abishola main cast members were downgraded to recurring in season 5, which didn't bode well for the sitcom's future. Co-creator Gina Yashere believes the cancelation speaks to TV studios' lack of commitment to diverse productions.

Bob Hearts Abishola season 6 is the hoped-for continuation of the CBS sitcom that finished its fifth season on May 6, 2024. Starring Billy Gardell, famous for leading the cast of Mike and Molly, and Folake Olowofoyeku of Transparent, Bob Hearts Abishola is about divorced sock company owner Bob Wheeler (Gardell) who falls head over heels in love with his nurse, Nigerian-born Abishola Bolatito Doyinsola Oluwatoyin (Olowofoyeku), after he suffers a stress-induced heart attack.

Hulu has to be pretty pleased with its list of new releases for June 2024. That’s because it’s about to be the summer of The Bear once again.

The Bear season 3 premieres all of its episodes on June 27 on Hulu. This FX dramedy has proven to be one of the most successful shows of its era. Jeremy Allen White stars as Carmy Berzatto, a world-famous chef who returns home to Chicago to help his floundering family restaurant after the death of his brother. Season 2 saw The Original Beef of Chicagoland crew transform the spot into fine dining establishment The Bear. It ruled. So will season 3 probably.

FX is responsible for the other major TV release on Hulu this month. Clipped premieres on June 4 and is about the scandalous real life story of Donald Sterling, the awful owner of the basketball team the Los Angeles Clippers. Another intriguing TV option...

Spoiler Alert! This story contains details from the series finale of Bob ❤️ Abishola on CBS.

The multi-camera comedy about an American businessman who falls in love with a Nigerian nurse wrapped May 6 in much the same way it kicked off in 2019 — with lots of charm and affection served up by its affable stars Billy Gardell and Folake Olowofoyeku.

Here, co-creator/EP/co-star Gina Yashere and EP Matt Ross talk about what went into crafting their sentimental Bob ❤️ Abishola finale, the show’s legacy and whether they regret using a heart emoji in the title.

Deadline: Talk about the decision to employ a time jump in the finale. Why did you do it?

Gina Yashere: There were certain stories that we started in previous seasons, like in Season 4 we’d ended on a cliffhanger. Is Abishola going to go to Johns Hopkins? And then throughout Season 4, we never really touched on the subject again.
