The conspiracies run deep in the first season of the Professionals TV show on The CW. As we all know, Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Professionals is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustrated when their viewing habits and opinions aren't considered, we invite you to rate all of the first season episodes of Professionals here. *Status Update Below.

The Professionals series is an international production that was filmed overseas back in 2020 and was released in various countries over a year ago. Since the drama was produced that long ago, a second season doesn't seem very likely. But, could positive ratings on The CW improve Professionals' chances of being renewed? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.

Professionals, like many a onetime show on The CW, isn’t part of the new ownership’s game plan. But the action-drama might still have “one in the chamber,” as they say.

“The CW hasn’t renewed us for a second season,” Professionals co-creator Jeff Most, of Jeff Most Productions, informs TVLine. “However, we are shopping the second season of Professionals to other networks and streaming platforms.”

Rejoice, Tremors fans as today we have word that Universal has just given the green light to the seventh entry in the creature feature series, Tremors 7! But that's not all. Oh, no. Today we also learned that franchise mainstay and all-around badass Michael Gross aka Burt Gummer aka the maniac with All the guns, will be returning to his classic role once again. Gross himself took to Facebook to announce his involvement with the seventh film in the series, writing this.

"Tremors fans will be delighted to know I have just agreed to the terms of a contract for a Seventh film. My best estimate is that Burt Gummer will begin his hunt for Graboids and other nefarious forms of wildlife in the fall of 2019.

Gross has played Gummer more than a few times by this point so his involvement shouldn't be a shock to anyone. It's still an utter joy,...

Stars: Michael Gross, Jaime Kennedy, Tanya van Graan, Greg Kriek, Jay Anstey | Written by John Whelpley | Directed by Don Michael Paul

In this, the sixth film in the long-running Tremors franchise, Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and his son Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) are called to a research facility in the frozen tundra of the Canadian Arctic. They find themselves up to their ears in Graboids and Ass-Blasters investigating a series of deadly giant-worm attacks. Burt begins to suspect that Graboids are secretly being weaponized, but before he can prove his theory, he is side-lined by Graboid venom. With just 48 hours to live, the only hope is to create an antidote from fresh venom – but to do that, someone will have to figure out how to milk a Graboid.

Ok, so we’re on the sixth film in the series and the second to feature Jaime Kennedy… Which is not a...

Hold onto your butts, for the Graboids are back with a vengeance.

Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, the sixth installment in the cult horror-comedy series, has been pegged for a direct-to-video release on May 1st. And Universal and Entertainment Weekly have unearthed the first trailer to prove it.

Embedded above, this first-look promo is heavy on action and light on sound, as there appears to be no dialogue to speak of. EW’s post has since been pulled offline, so chances are the outlet will release a corrected version later in the day. We will, as always, update this post the moment a new trailer is available, but for now, let’s take a look at those cast members about to experience a cold day in Hell.

Front and center are Michael Gross and Jamie Kennedy, who reprise their roles as Burt Gummer and Travis Welker, respectively, while there...

While these pictures may not include any monsters – nor anyone that looks particularly chilly – the first images from Tremors 6: A Cold Day In Hell are entirely on-brand for the iconic horror-comedy franchise, which is now in its 28th year.

Featuring Michael Gross as Burt Gummer – the only character to have appeared in every Tremors project released so far – they reveal plenty of guns being aimed out of buildings, pneumatic drills and some tense ‘don’t walk on the ground!’ shots. Mostly, though, we can see that Gross and his cast are having a great time, and that’s really what this franchise is all about.

The premise for the series is gloriously simple. Back in 1990, we saw the tiny, desert town of Perfection ravaged by monsters called Graboids that live under the sand. With the action then led by Kevin Bacon’s Val McKee and Fred Ward’s Earl Bass,...

Tremors fans must be wallowing in the warm light of riches, as the franchise continues to have big plans of the future. Not only are we getting the return of Kevin Bacon in a new Tremors TV show, the movie franchise is continuing on as strong as ever with the sixth installment Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell. Today we have a first look at this exciting sequel, starring Michael Gross and Jamie Kennedy.

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment division announced the sequel in 2017, when production kicked off almost exactly one year ago today. Now, the movie is finished, and a trailer should be on the way soon. Universal offered this official synopsis.

"Intrepid creature hunter Burt Gummer and his son Travis find themselves in a remote hotbed of giant man-eating worms in the newest action-packed entry in the wildly popular Tremors franchise."

The movie was shot in Cape Town, South Africa,...

Did you know they're still making Tremors movies? Because they are and a sixth movie in the long-running franchise is on the way in 2018. The movie has been in the works for a while now and will see star Michael Gross return once again as Burt Gummer, doing what he does best; hunting Graboids. Now, the movie has been given an official PG-13 rating by the MPAA. In addition, Tremors 6 has been given an official title.

The new Tremors flick is officially titled Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell. The title refers to the setting in the Canadian tundra. As for the PG-13 rating? That shouldn't come as a big surprise, as every movie in the franchise to date has been given the same rating. Tremors 6 has earned the rating for, "creature violence, gore, crude humor, and language." That sounds like a Tremors movie alright.

In Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell,...

Earlier this year, it was officially announced that Burt Gummer (Michael Gross) and Travis Welker (Jamie Kennedy) will go up against more Graboids in Tremors 6, and now Gross has revealed the release date for the sequel.

According to Gross' recent Facebook post, Universal Studios is planning to release Tremors 6 on January 30th, 2018 (on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD, as per the previous press release below).

No other updates are known at this time, but we'll keep Daily Dead readers posted on further details as they are revealed. In the meantime, we have the previous press release with the official synopsis and casting info:

Luke Goss talks about returning as Carl "Luke" Lucas in Death Race 3: Inferno, arriving on Blu-ray and DVD January 22

10 years ago, the thought of a straight-to-dvd franchise would have probably gotten you laughed out of any meeting in Hollywood. Today, modest theatrical hits such as Wrong Turn, The Scorpion King, and even The Lost Boys have been given new life. The 2008 action-thriller Death Race is another one of these success stories, spawning Death Race 2 in 2011 and the upcoming Death Race 3: Inferno, debuting on Blu-ray and DVD January 22. I recently had the chance to speak with Luke Goss, who returns as Carl "Luke" Lucas (aka Frankenstein), reprising his role from Death Race 2. Take a look at what he had to say about taking another deadly ride as Luke.

This is your second time around as Carl Lucas. Are you continually exploring new aspects of the character each time around?...
