Exclusive: CBS is looking to expand its firefighter drama footprint beyond the California-based Fire Country with the New York-set Ten House. The firehouse project, now in development, comes from Two Shakes Entertainment, Damon Wayans Jr.’s production company with Kameron Tarlow, and CBS Studios where the company has been based since its 2018 launch, recently renewing its first-look deal through May 2026.

Written by Pilar Golden, creator/executive producer of the upcoming Amazon Freevee series Beyond Black Beauty, Ten House takes place at the iconic Fdny Ten House. It follows two rookies as they grapple with their legacies as children of 9/11 first responders while navigating burgeoning feelings toward one another, the firehouse’s well-trained yet formidable veterans, and the demands of emergency response in the ever-changing yet always challenging city of New York.

Golden executive produces alongside Two Shakes’ Wayans Jr. and Tarlow.

Exclusive: Ayesha Harris has signed with Innovative Artists for representation.

Harris broke out in 2023 as one of the industry’s prominent rising LGBTQ+ voices. She recurred in the nine-time Emmy-nominated Amazon Prime miniseries Daisy Jones and the Six, opposite Riley Keough, Sam Claflin, and Suki Waterhouse. In the series, Harris plays Bernie, a disc jockey in New York’s underground gay disco scene, and the love interest of Simone Jackson (Nabiyah Be). Also in 2023, Harris starred alongside Kim Cattrall and Miss Benny in Netflix’s queer drama-comedy Glamorous. Other television credits include This Is Us, L Word: Generation Q, Abbott Elementary and Good Girls.

Harris made her feature film debut in the Samuel Goldwyn Films anthology Tell It Like a Woman, which landed Diane Warren her 14th Academy Award nom for Best Original Song. She co-stars in the film’s seventh segment, “Pepcy and Kim”, opposite Jennifer Hudson, directed by Taraji P. Henson.

Glamorous was a potential hit for Sex and the City fans, but got canceled after one season due to low ratings and critical reception. Kim Cattrall's return as Samantha Jones in the Sex and the City reboot is still uncertain, despite having a more open schedule now. Cattrall has kept herself busy with various TV roles, but her stance on returning to Sex and the City projects remains rocky.

Even after 20 years, Kim Cattrall is still best known for Sex and the City, though she had the perfect replacement show on Netflix in 2023. The 67-year-old actress portrayed Samantha Jones on the classic HBO series and its subsequent films for over a decade, yet she's been one of the few stars not to return to the cast for And Just Like That, the Sex and the City reboot show. Still, Cattrall has kept busy with various TV roles over the past decade.

The Shadow and Bone cast is remembering their time on the fantasy series following Netflix’s cancellation after two seasons.

On Friday, Freddy Carter, who played Crows leader Kaz Brekker, wrote on Instagram that “maybe at some point I’ll have the right words to express the immense gratitude I feel to everyone who put their whole hearts into making, watching and supporting Shadow and Bone. Until then, I’ll just say, thank you.”

Netflix has recently canceled five original TV shows, including two live-action and three animated shows, sparking complaints from subscribers. Most of the canceled shows only made it to one season, which has been a consistent trend with Netflix's cancellations. The streaming service may be risking the potential growth of its shows by canceling them too soon, as many successful TV series took time to find their footing in later seasons.

Netflix has canceled a grand total of five original TV shows in one fell swoop, and it doubles down on one of the biggest complaints from the streaming service’s subscriber base. The streamer has canceled two live-action shows, Glamorous and Shadow and Bone, as well as three animated shows: Agent Elvis, Farzar, and Captain Fall. Shadow and Bone is a fantasy series based on the Y.A. books by Leigh Bardugo; it made it to two seasons before being canceled ahead of a third.

In sharing her disappointment about Shadow and Bone‘s recent cancellation at Netflix, book author Leigh Bardugo has revealed that the planned Six of Crows spinoff has also been scrapped.

“Friends, by now you’ve probably heard that there will be no Season 3 for Shadow and Bone and no Six of Crows spinoff,” Bardugo wrote in an Instagram post on Wednesday. “The news hit me hard. I’m heartbroken and deeply disappointed, but I’m also trying to hold onto my very real gratitude.

When the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes got underway earlier this year, many Netflix shows were left with fates up in the air.

Now that the strikes are over and Hollywood is getting back to normal, the series won't be making the cut for additional seasons are being revealed.

Deadline revealed Wednesday that Shadow & Bone, Glamorous, Agent Elvis, Farzar, and Captain Fall will not be returning.

Shadow & Bone is the highest profile of the five shows, having made it to a second season.

Despite the freshman season garnering considerable buzz, Shadow & Bone Season 2 launched earlier this year to little fanfare.

Based on the Grishaverse books by Leigh Bardugo, Shadow and Bone Season 2 follows Alina Starkov, who is now on the run.

The series stars Jessie Mei Li (Alina Starkov), Archie Renaux (Malyen Oretsev), Freddy Carter (Kaz Brekker), Amita Suman (Inej Ghafa), Kit Young (Jesper Fahey), Danielle Galligan (Nina Zenik...

Jodie Sweetin was surprised to learn that one of her upcoming movies, which wrapped filming over a year ago, has landed at Great American Family. The network came under fire last year after Candace Cameron Bure, their Chief Creative Officer and Sweetin's Fuller House co-star, told the Wall Street Journal that the network would keep "traditional marriage at the core." She faced immediate backlash from celebrities like Jojo Siwa, Hilarie Burton, and Holly Robinson Peete. Sweetin, who began working with Cameron Bure on...

For queer pop culture fanatics, Netflix’s “Glamorous” is the gift that keeps on giving.

Beyond the homages to everything from “9 to 5” and “Clue” (including a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it reference to Jade’s infamous Cover Girl commercial on “America’s Next Top Model”) and an early aughts party so dead-on it will induce vertigo in viewers of a certain age, there’s also Miss Benny’s wardrobe as assistant Marco, newly hired at Glamorous by Madolyn as Madolyn Addison’s assistant. (Even the name of Kim Cattrall’s character feels like a reference to Meryl Streep’s Madeline Ashton in gay cult classic “Death Becomes Her.”)

A gender-nonconforming queer man, Marco begins as a struggling makeup vlogger and ends in full glam, complete with a twinkling pantsuit straight from the Nicole Kidman for AMC collection. For a show that lives up to its name and for a non-binary character, the fits...

Glamorous star Miss Benny took to TikTok this week to open up about her time working on Netflix's Fuller House, and it sounds like it wasn't the best experience.

Miss Benny played Casey in two episodes of the Full House revival as Casey, a friend of Kimmy's daughter, Ramona.

"One of the Tanner sisters is, like, very publicly not for the girls, if that makes sense," Miss Benny shared on the social media platform, recalling that the cast member tried to get her character removed. 

While Miss Benny never mentions Candace Cameron Bure by name, the actress' name was hashtagged in the video.

"I remember I got sat down by the writers and the studio to basically warn me how this person allegedly was trying to get the character removed and not have a queer character on the show."

Miss Benny said that there were conversations to nix the...

A claim that Candace Cameron Bure had a queer character written out of Fuller House has prompted a response from the actress herself. After appearing in the original Full House show as a former child star, Bure returned as one of the leads in Netflix's sequel series Fuller House. Debuting in 2016, the show was a success, spanning five seasons before wrapping up in 2020.

In the show's fourth season, Miss Benny (Glamorous) played the role of Casey. This was the first openly queer character that's appeared in either Full House or Fuller House, though the role was limited to two episodes. Per People, Miss Benny insinuates in a new TikTok video that Bure had been "homophobic" on the set of Fuller House, allegedly going so far as to have the writers remove Casey from the series. Miss Benny, who has since come out as transgender, didn't mention Bure by name,...

Miss Benny claims someone from the Fuller House main cast tried getting her character removed, but Candace Cameron-Bure denies the accusation. Playing performer Casey, Miss Benny's role was Kimmy's first high school intern. The character had a lot of potential, but after a couple of Fuller House episodes, Casey was never seen again in the Full House spinoff. In addition, Casey was the first openly-gay player in the Fuller House.

Taking it to her official TikTok, Miss Benny recalls her time in Fuller House and reveals that one of the main cast members tried having her role axed. Despite not dropping names in her video, Cameron-Bure releases a statement to Entertainment Tonight denying the claims. Read both of their quotes below:

Miss Benny: "I was on Fuller House, I played Casey, the first gay character on the Full House franchise. One of the Tanner sisters is very publicly 'not for...

In a TikTok video posted on Thursday, Glamorous star Miss Benny alleged that Fuller House co-star Candace Cameron Bure tried to have their character Casey — who was gay and served as Ramona’s (Soni Bringas) platonic prom date in Season 4 Episode 12 — written out of the Netflix sitcom.

Bure, who starred in all five seasons of Fuller House as DJ Tanner, however has denied Miss Benny’s accusation.

Glamorous star Miss Benny is opening up about her experience filming on Netflix‘s other comedy series, Fuller House, heavily hinting that one cast member wasn’t thrilled about her presence. Appearing in two episodes during the show’s fourth season, Miss Benny played Casey, a friend of Kimmy’s (Andrea Barber) daughter, Ramona (Soni Nicole Bringas). In a new TikTok posted by the performer, Miss Benny is reacting to allegations that she experienced homophobic behavior behind the scenes of the spinoff, seemingly pointing towards Candace Cameron Bure. @ihatemissbenny Replying to @Teddy Bear queue some nervous fidgeting. #fullerhouse #greenscreen #candacebure ♬ original sound – Miss Benny The series, which saw the characters of Full House return to TV screens decades after the original show’s network run, introduced its first gay character to the franchise, but Miss Benny is reporting on the reception of this news behind cameras. A comment from one...

Netflix’s Glamorous is an engaging dramatic comedy series that may feel inspired by films like The Devil Wears Prada but ultimately stands on its own. The 10-episode series stars Miss Benny as Marco Mejia, a young gender-nonconforming queer man who lands a job at a prestigious makeup company run by Kim Cattrall’s Madolyn Addison. Although a Glamorous season 2 has not yet been confirmed, the first season implied there is much story left to tell.

Music for Glamorous was written by Malaysian composer Joy Ngiaw, who is known in part for her work on the Skydance Animation short film Blush and the Netflix movie Rescued by Ruby. Ngiaw also scored the first-ever Skydance Animation studio logo, and was the youngest composer ever to define the sound of a film studio in such a way.

The cast of Netflix's Glamorous includes a couple of fabulous familiar faces, along with some relatively fresh faces who undoubtedly make their mark in the show. The comedy-drama series centers around Marco, a makeup enthusiast who stumbles upon the opportunity of a lifetime to work with Madolyn Addison, a beauty mogul. Glamorous mainly revolves around the two characters and their burgeoning relationship, but it also features plenty of other individuals who work at the makeup company. From rivals to potential love interests, Glamorous has it all.

Netflix released all ten episodes of the first season on June 22, 2023, and the show quickly generated the attention of plenty of subscribers worldwide. Glamorous charted on the Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. list within the first week of its premiere. While the series' story is a draw for many viewers, the talented cast also helped attract attention to the show.

Kim Cattrall...

Kim Cattrall continues to bestow her icon status wherever she goes.

In her latest series, “Glamorous”, Cattrall leads a makeup company that hires a queer, non-binary makeup artist and online influencer, Marco, as her assistant.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the actor behind Marco, Miss Benny, shared how undeniably difficult it was to not freak out around Cattrall after being such a massive “Sex in the City” fan.

“I’ve always looked up to leading women of TV shows and movies that I’ve watched. I always had fantasies about Carrie Bradshaw, a fabulous figure balancing love life and friendships,” said Benny, 24, of their admiration for “Sex...

Every generation gets the aspirational workplace it deserves. In 2006, “The Devil Wears Prada” helped establish the archetype of an imperious, intimidating woman who rules her chic urban office with an iron fist; with its obvious Anna Wintour analog, the book-turned-film also doubled as a bookend to the era of the print magazine editor’s omnipotence. Eight years later, Sophia Amoruso coined the term “Girlboss,” a cutesy moniker that soon got a Netflix adaptation to match. Latter-day examples have updated the template to keep pace with the times: “Younger” took place in the wake of the Great Recession, when securing a dream job requires some deceit, while “The Bold Type” was proudly progressive — think 2010s Cosmo, not mid-aughts Vogue. In these stories, actual employment is less secure, but the employer acts less like a dictator than a stern, if nurturing, mentor.

Now, there’s “Glamorous,” the new Netflix show that casts...

Glamorous is a Netflix series produced by CBS and created by Jordon Nardino. Starring Kim Cattrall (Sex and the City) and featuring breakthrough actor Miss Benny in a hilarious role, the series draws inspiration from The Devil Wears Prada, but with a more benevolent character. Although the show meets expectations, they are not particularly high.

The plot follows Marco, an aspiring influencer who lands a dream job with a makeup mogul. He embarks on a dazzling journey of self-discovery amidst the chaos of his work and romantic challenges.

While the show is an entertaining, glamorous comedy, it is more intriguing for its concept than its execution. As the series progresses, the comedy overshadows the plot, leaving it somewhat superficial. The acting is more convincing than the characters themselves, and the actors’ performances are more impactful than their dialogue. The series is too focused on being “glamorous” and not enough on delivering a compelling story.

As if Pride Month couldn’t get any gayer, “And Just Like That” Season 2 and Kim Cattrall’s new Netflix series, “Glamorous,” are premiering on the same day, June 22. “Isn’t that incredible?” says Cattrall’s co-star, actor and musician Miss Benny. “That is the gay stuff that I love. I’m excited for our show. I’m excited for that show. I’m excited for the spectacle of it all.”

In “Glamorous,” Miss Benny plays Marco, a gender-nonconforming wannabe influencer who lands a job working for a beauty mogul (Cattrall). Miss Benny says Cattrall signed on to “Glamorous” after watching a clip of them playing a “sexual, raunchy and queer” character on “American Horror Stories.” “That blows my mind because I did that whole part saying, ‘What if I do it with a little bit of Samantha?’” they say. “I mimic her portrayal of Samantha a lot in my campier work.

In early development, Marco Mejia, the gender-nonconforming queer character at the heart of the new series Glamorous — set inside the world of the makeup business — was conceived as a much younger character.

“Literally, Marco was in high school,” recalls Miss Benny, who plays him on the show, which debuts June 22. But over the four years that the actor (and former YouTube star) was attached to the project, “It got retooled and written so many times and is at a different network [Netflix] — and now Marco’s just like, an out-and-proud-living homosexual,” says the L.A.-based actor, 24, who grew up in Denton, Texas, and has had roles on Fuller House; Love, Victor; and American Horror Story. “When we shot the pilot, I had to shave like three times a day to somehow look like I was 17. And this time, they were like, ‘No, you can just be you.'”

The Gabrielle Union-starring rom-com The Perfect Find and new seasons of deceptive baking sensation Is It Cake? and The Witcher, marking the beginning of the end of Henry Cavill’s starring run, are some of the much-anticipated titles still set to come to Netflix this month.

In The Perfect Find, Union plays a fashion editor who, after a public breakup and career implosion, starts working for her former rival Darcy Hill (Gina Torres) and catches the eye of a younger videographer (Keith Powers), who happens to be the boss’ son. As a romance blossoms, Union’s character begins to question what she really wants from the next phase of her life. The film, directed by Numa Perrier, is based on Tia Williams’ award-winning novel of the same name and also stars Janet Hubert, D.B. Woodside, Aisha Hinds, La La Anthony and others.

More deceptive desserts are on the menu...

The first official trailer for Netflix's upcoming series Glamorous features Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall as she attempts to build a cosmetics empire. The series stars Cattrall as Madolyn Addison, a legendary model whose cosmetics business is on the downturn, and Miss Benny as Marco Mejia, a young gender non-conforming queer man whose life is in need of a jump start when Addison takes a chance on him.

Netflix has revealed the first look at Miss Benny and Cattrall (who recently made headlines for her bombshell And Just Like That season 2 return) as Marco and Madolyn through the first official Glamorous trailer, with the show set to premiere on the streaming platform on June 22. Check it out below:

The Glamorous trailer efficiently sets up its premise, which sees Marco score their dream job within Addison's company, only to swiftly realize it might be a bit harder than initially assumed.

Netflix’s upcoming series “Glamorous” is like “The Devil Wears Prada” if Meryl Streep were replaced by “Sex and the City’s” Kim Cattrall and instead of Anne Hathaway, she hired drag queens and non-binary actor Miss Benny to work for her. The 10-episode LGBTQ comedy series premieres June 22 on the streamer.

“Glamorous” follows baby-faced new hire Marco Mejia (Miss Benny), a young, queer man who lands a job for the legendary CEO Madolyn Addison (Cattrall). Madolyn’s makeup line, Glamorous Cosmetics, is plummeting. Suspecting her business is being sabotaged by someone on the inside, she hires Marco to sleuth around.

“She wants him to be her eyes and ears, to make friends — and find out what’s going on behind her back, to discover what they’re hiding and what they’re stealing. In exchange, she’ll teach Marco everything she knows – but she warns him, ‘This business isn’t all glitter and glamour,...

Glamorous has a premiere date. Netflix has announced the arrival of the drama series with the release of first-look photos. The streaming service has ordered 10 episodes.

Starring Miss Benny, Kim Cattrall, Zane Phillips, Jade Payton, Michael Hsu Rosen, Ayesha Harris, and Graham Parkhurst, the Netflix series follows Marco Mejia (Miss Benny), a gender non-conforming queer man who lands a job with makeup mogul Madolyn Addison (Cattrall) and has their life changed forever.

The upcoming Netflix comedy tells the story of Marco Mejia (Miss Benny), a young gender non-conforming queer man whose life seems to be stuck in place until he lands a job working for legendary makeup mogul Madolyn Addison (Kim Cattrall).

The job provides Marco with his first real chance to figure out what he wants out of life, who he actually is, and what it really means for him to be queer — while also helping Madolyn rejuvenate her iconic but now-stale beauty brand.

Glamorous is created and executive produced by Nardino, with executive producers Damon Wayans Jr. and Kameron Tarlow of Two Shakes Entertainment. The series is produced by CBS Television Studios for Netflix.

Damon Wayans Jr. and Kameron Tarlow’s Two Shakes Entertainment is developing “Shuga: Baltimore” at CBS Studios for Paramount+, it was revealed at the ongoing Content London conference on Thursday.

“Shuga: Baltimore” is an offshoot of “MTV: Shuga,” the MTV Staying Alive Foundation’s long-running drama series and multimedia campaign that launched on Dec. 1 (World AIDS Day), 2009, in Kenya and followed the lives of young people on the African continent. Since then, the drama has had iterations in Nigeria, South Africa, Cote d’Ivoire and India and has touched on numerous plot lines relating to HIV testing and prevention, Covid-19, family planning and contraception, transactional sex, gender-based violence, and condom use. Stars include Lupita Nyong’o (“Black Panther”) and Thuso Mbedu (“The Woman King”).

CBS Studios has teamed with Damon Wayans Jr to create a Baltimore-set version of its African drama MTV Shuga for streaming sister company Paramount+ and is co-producing shows in Australia and on the France-Spain border.

Shuga: Baltimore will follow the lives of six people seeking to find beauty in their futures while surviving in the rapidly tech-gentrifying Maryland city. Billed as a “hyper-surrealist tale,” the show is now in development, with Greg ‘Mellow’ Brown’ writing.

Wayans Jr. and Kameron Tarlow are co-producing through their Two Shakes Entertainment banner, with Paramount Global and MTV Staying Alive Foundation’s Georgia Arnold, Sara Piot and Richard Warburton sitting alongside them as executive producers. Mellow is a co-executive producer.

CBS Studios acquired rights to Shuga from the MTV Staying Alive Foundation, which is a Paramount initiative aimed at using the power of entertainment to change the attitudes and behavior of young people.
