Netflix is dipping into the world of Dutch reality with a series following Yolanthe Cabau’s journey to LA, while the streamer is adapting Saskia Noort’s The Dinner Club.
The Spanish-Dutch An Egypt Affair star will be the focus of a show that was unveiled at a Next on Netflix event in Amsterdam this afternoon.
In the untitled reality series, cameras will follow Cabau as she leaves the Dutch capital for Tinseltown with son Xess Xava. As she faces her past, the audience discovers why Cabau, who used to be married to Dutch soccer star Wesley Sneijder, left the limelight, and which childhood secrets continue to haunt her.
“I made a conscious decision to step out of the spotlight for a while to focus on myself and Xess,” she said. “The past few years have been challenging, but I can confidently say that I am more empowered than ever.

In her entertaining Mipcom fresh content presentation on Tuesday, Virginia Mouseler, CEO and co-founder of the Geneva-based TV think tank The Wit, put the focus on hit new shows powered by a cast of angry women.
“‘The Squid Game’ inspired our theme for today, which is fiction against domination,” she said. “In our selection, it will be mostly women against the domination of men. The domination of the system.”
Mouseler’s selection of fresh TV began with the BBC’s crime thriller “Vigil,” which revolves around a lesbian cop sent to investigate a murder on a submarine. “The deeper you go, the darker it gets,” runs the tag line.
“What I thought was interesting was the evolution of the female cop character,” she said. “She’s a lesbian and she’s sent to a men’s world and has to deal with her own vulnerability.”

Washington, Nov 9: 7 women are planning to jump from an airplane near Lake Elsinore, California, wearing nothing but parachutes and their lingerie, so that they can face their fears.
Jennifer Hoffman and Marisa Gallegos, founders of Esme and Eve Photography in Los Angeles, will be jumping with 5 other women, who have faced something traumatic in their lives like death in the family, coping with being a rape victim, or overcoming an eating disorder.
The jump is part of Esme and Eve's "Be Bold. Take the Leap" initiative, in which Hoffman and Gallegos urge women "to face their fears, take a risk and push against whatever is holding them back from carrying out their dreams."

Director/writer: Allen Kellogg.
Cast: Thomas Cassell, Jessica A. Fleming and Jennifer Hoffman.
Remember MTV’s "Fear?" That is basically what writer/director Allen Kellogg is going for in his product, 7 Nights of Darkness. Unlike the television show, instead of five contestants, there are seven, and the terrors they face is more made up than based on actual facts. Had that been the case, since the real life property of Madison Seminary is allegedly haunted, then maybe the spirits within and the living participants would not look like rejects from a Japanese game show.
To those readers who are not familiar with the decade old show, game contestants are led into a location blindfolded and they are left alone. With hidden cameras to follow them, and equipment left for them to use, they are required to complete a...
