Wbd Ramps Up TNT Investment With ‘The Librarians: The Next Chapter,’ CIA Miniseries
Image
After taking a $9.1 billion write-down on its linear networks business, in part due to the company’s loss of NBA rights, Warner Bros. Discovery is ramping up its investment in programming for TNT.

The cable network has greenlit “Debriefing the President” (working title), a four-hour miniseries about CIA analyst John Nixon’s 2003 interrogation of Saddam Hussein, in which he learned about the potential consequences of the invasion, the humanitarian horrors and geopolitical turbulences that would follow Saddam’s deposing.

The series is produced by Ar Content and Big Dreams Entertainment for TNT. Alexander Rodnyansky, Joel Kinnaman, Stuart Manashil, Michael Kupisk, Peter Gerwe, Shelley Browning, and Leslie Greif serve as EPs, while Cristi Bostanescu and Eric Tomosunas serve as producers and Krzysztof Skonieczny directs.

TNT has also acquired “The Librarians: The Next Chapter,” a sequel to supernatural adventure series “The Librarians.” The project was initially set to lead The CW’s 2024-25 fall season.

Almost Paradise Season 2 Washes Up on Freevee This Summer, and Big Changes Are on the Horizon
Christian Kane
At one point, we didn't think Almost Paradise Season 2 would see the light of day.

The series premiered in 2020 on WGN America and picked up many passionate fans along the way.

The team-up of Christian Kane and Dean Devlin always leads to magic, so we were left in shock when the series was let go by the cable network.

Thankfully, Amazon Freevee stepped in and picked up Almost Paradise Season 2, and it premieres this summer.

As revealed Monday by TV Line, all ten episodes of Almost Paradise Season 2 will wash up on the free streaming service on Friday, July 21.

It will be available in the U.S. and the UK on that date, with other territories likely following shortly after.

Kane returns to star along with returning executive producers and co-showrunners Devlin and Gary Rosen.

Kane plays Alex Walker, a former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent forced into early retirement.

Vanna White and Ryan Seacrest in Wheel of Fortune (1983)
With almost no sports left to watch on TV, “Wheel of Fortune” is starting to feel like an extreme sport.

Fans were beside themselves over one mind-bogglingly quick puzzle solve by a contestant on Thursday’s show, who guessed an entire phrase with only one letter on the board.

Contestant Mark Franco, an avid outdoorsman from Brentwood, Calif., correctly guessed the answer “I’M Having A Ball.”

“What in the hell is this sorcery,” was one fan’s response on Twitter.

“Quarantine day… whatever… no sports, and I just got way too hyped when a dude just guessed an entire puzzle with One Letter On The Board” wrote another.
