Paul Rudd has been tapped to narrate “Secrets of the Octopus,” the third installment of National Geographic’s “Secrets Of…” franchise. “Secrets of the Octopus” premieres on Earth Day, April 21, on Nat Geo, and then stream the next day on Hulu and Disney+. National Geographic explorer-at-large James Cameron is behind the three-part docu-series.

“It’s been an incredible journey learning about these mysterious creatures and their interconnected lives. I can’t imagine audiences won’t be as blown away with the secret lives of octopuses as I was working on this series,” Rudd said in a statement. “If you’re going to dive deep into natural history, you have to do it with National Geographic. I’m thrilled to be working with James Cameron and the Nat Geo team to deepen our connection with the ocean and all of its creatures and curiosities.”

Thomas Rabe was born in tiny Luxembourg, the mini-nation squeezed in between France, Germany and Belgium. But when it comes to business, as CEO of pan-European broadcast giant Rtl Group and chairman and CEO of Rtl’s parent, global media conglomerate Bertelsmann, Rabe likes to think big.

At an Rtl shareholders’ meeting back in August 2021, Rabe dropped a bombshell: Fremantle, Rtl’s production division, making of entertainment formats like X Factor and American Idol and already one of the biggest independent TV producers in the world, was about to get a lot bigger. In four years, Rabe said, Fremantle would boost revenue by a cool $1.1 billion (€1 billion) to hit a new revenue target of $3.3 billion (€3 billion) by 2025.

Rtl gave Fremantle the cash to pump into M&a expansion, fueling a buying spree that has seen the company spend more than a quarter of a billion dollars in the past three years snatching up independent companies,...

We might be entering the dog days of summer but Hulu isn’t slowing down. The streamer’s list of new releases for August 2023 is a pretty impressive collection of content.

The biggest Hulu original this month is season 3 of true crime comedy Only Murders in the Building on Aug. 8. This time around Meryl Streep and Paul Rudd are joining the already-stacked cast that features Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. This season’s central murder appears to take place at a theater (outside the building) but I think we’ll let it slide.

That’s far from the only worthwhile original in August as Aug. 2 sees the premiere of the third and final season of superb comedy Reservation Dogs. That will be followed by South Korean sci-fi series Moving on Aug. 9, Solar Opposites season 4 on Aug. 14, and A Murder at the End of the World on Aug. 29. Of course,...

Even in the age of streaming, there’s no denying broadcast TV has remarkable staying power. Free broadcast channels refused to die when cable was the primary method of TV for American consumers, and they have not been intimidated by the proliferation of streaming either.

The major broadcast networks ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC may not be ready to go completely digital just yet, but each has developed an app where users can go to watch their content. Some of these networks have robust channel offerings on their respective apps, while others have mostly channels that can be accessed with TV Everywhere credentials, keeping the free ad-supported TV (Fast) channels they own on separate apps.

Which broadcast network offers the best selection of channels on its apps? Check below for a full list of channels available on the ABC, CBS, FoxNow, and NBC apps.

America’s National Parks season 2 is here with lengthy looks into a new selection of the country's most beautiful protected parks. Season 1 of the National Geographic series was released last year and transported viewers to the Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Big Bend, Badlands, and Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Parks. America’s National Parks season 2 explores locations that may be lesser known but just as beautiful, including California’s Channel Islands and Florida’s Biscayne.

In addition to exploring the beautiful landscapes of America’s natural wonders, America’s National Parks shines a light on the flora and fauna that thrive within park bounds. Season 2 presents the unique animals of the Channel Islands and the brown bears of Lake Clark, as well as species that migrate to and from national parks during the year. Screen Rant is excited to exclusively premiere a clip from the first episode of the season about one such...

Even though the Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to churn away in theaters, it’s been a minute since Disney+ has had a proper Marvel blockbuster TV show join its servers. That all changes with Disney+’s list of new releases for June 2023.

The big release this month is undoubtedly Marvel’s Secret Invasion on June 21. Samuel L. Jackson will reprise his hallowed MCU role of Nick Fury to investigate a (secret) Skull invasion in this six-episode series that’s been described as a paranoid thriller. With Emilia Clarke, Cobie Smulders, Ben Mendelsohn, Don Cheadle, and Olivia Colman also involved this could be Marvel’s biggest TV swing since Loki.

Another major Marvel property coming to Disney+ in June will be Stan Lee on June 16, the definitive documentary of the legendary scribe’s life and work. That will be preceded by Assembled: The Making of Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania on...
