Dennis Quaid, who starred in the 1998 film in which he played one of two twins brought together to love each other, has expressed his excitement for a revival of The Parent Trap, the new generation’s answer to the 1961 Disney classic.
He was concerned, though, about how a makeover could and ought to be carried out without his late co-star, the 45-year-old English actress Natasha Richardson, who passed away in 2009 after a skiing accident.
Quaid’s answer to Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet at the premiere of his new film Reagan showed just how large her loss still loomed in his heart. “That would be fantastic,” Quaid said of a Parent Trap revival, “But Natasha—how do we do it without Natasha?”

The ABC show “Abbott Elementary” is coming back for its fourth season on October 9th. This show about teachers trying to educate students in an underfunded school is really popular. The creator of the show, Quinta Brunson, got fans excited at a big comic convention by hinting at something big happening this season.
Brunson teased that the new season will have an “interesting crossover.” A crossover is when characters from one TV show meet characters from another show. She said this could “change TV forever” but then joked we should “lower our expectations.” Naturally, people on the internet started freaking out with their theories about what show it could crossover with!
Most people think the teachers may meet up with the gang from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” This show is also set in Philadelphia and airs on a Disney channel, just like “Abbott Elementary.” Earlier this year, the creator...

Jeopardy! fans are about to hit a break in action as the popular game show is about to hit its summer hiatus. This means that the new episodes will end for a time, and only reruns will be available. While this means reliving things like Adriana Harmeyer, Isaac Hirsch, and Drew Basile’s winning streaks, most fans want new games.
Here is when Jeopardy! is going on hiatus and how long it will last.
Jeopardy! Going On Summer Hiatus In August
The new season of Jeopardy! officially started in April when new players showed up for the first time since the WGA strike of 2023. That season got off to a huge start when Adriana Harmeyer went on a winning streak that put her among the best of all time. Now, with July coming to a close, the show is about to take a midseason hiatus.
Adriana Harmeyer sneaks by with her final wager.

Isaac Hirsch didn’t make it to 10 wins on Jeopardy! but there is one former champ who has a big complaint about Isaac after his run. This champ feels he has set the bar too high. Here is what the former champ had to say about Isaac and what will happen when he hits the Tournament of Champions.
Jeopardy! Champ Alison Betts Talks Isaac Hirsch
Isaac Hirsch went into the final show on Jeopardy! with a nine-game winning streak. He had a great chance to win too, as long as he wagered the right total. He and Jay Fisher both missed the Final Jeopardy! question and if Isaac had done the math right, he would have won. Isaac did the math wrong and lost.
Jeopardy: Isaac Hirsch
However, his win totals were impressive. He went home with $215,390 in his nine wins. Both numbers were good enough for second place...

However, a celebrity contestant guessed the correct answer, seemingly with ease.

One celeb pair received a $250,000 question, and their ability to arrive at the answer impressed Kimmel and fans.

Once again, the Emmy Awards nominations don’t include a slew of TV favorites. Among the most notable snubs: Emma Stone for Best Drama Actress and a complete shutout of her Showtime series “The Curse.” Equally surprising was “Shogun” supporting actresses Moeka Hoshi and Fumi Nikaido missing the ballot. On the comedy side, Netflix’s “The Gentlemen” missed for Comedy Series and a forecasted bid for its star Theo James. And although “The Bear” had a solid morning overall, Abby Elliott wasn’t able to ride the wave of fortune in Best Comedy Supporting Actress. Oliver Platt and Matty Matheson were also snubbed on the Supporting Actor side.

Recently, Jeopardy! fans made the comparison of the new champ, Isaac Hirsch, with one of the show’s most beloved champs. While some have wondered if Isaac is slowing down, he seems to be gaining fan favor through his winning streak.
Isaac Hirsch Is Gaining A Following
While some believe Jeopardy! is weighing down on the new champ, Isaac Hirsch. While he has played well during his seven-day winning streak, some see signs he might be running out of steam. However, fans were more upset by Thursday night’s episode cutting Ken Jennings off before the show was over. But when the results were revealed, Isaac made it through another round with victory. Although some people have criticized Isaac, he clapped back at social media trolls and has since gained a following by showing his on-screen charm.

Jimmy Kimmel is finally hosting “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” the way it’s supposed to be done — in front of a studio audience. The landmark game show returns with an all-celeb edition for its 25th anniversary on Wednesday night, and although this is the third season he’s been in the chair that Regis Philbin made famous, this is the first time fans have finally been allowed back in the studio.
“I really wanted to do it the proper way in front of people because you like to hear people laugh at your jokes,” Kimmel says. “Also, the drama that goes along with a couple of hundred people watching the action happen is an important part of the show. I mean, doing the show in front of nobody is no fun.”
But that’s what Kimmel had to do in March 2020 when he first came on to host the primetime series’ revival.

Emulating what many are expecting at next week’s Emmy Awards nominations, FX’s “The Bear” topped the field with 15 bids followed by Max’s “Hacks” and Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” with 13 apiece for the Astra TV Awards. The above comedies were followed in the overall nominations tally by ABC’s “Abbott Elementary,” CBS’s “Ghosts” and Apple TV+’s “The Morning Show” with 11 honors each, while the Prime Video freshman drama “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” also came in at double-digits with 10. Leading the way for limited series were a pair of Netflix offerings, “Baby Reindeer” and “The Fall of the House of Usher,” along with Apple TV+’s “Lessons in Chemistry” and HBO’s “True Detective: Night Country” – all with seven bids apiece.

Jeopardy! fans can often be sticklers for the rules and often like to complain online when something happens that they think is a bending of those rules. That happened this week on Jeopardy! when one player got a right answer that many fans felt should have been counted wrong. However, that player has fired back at his critics.
Here is what happened and what the player said in response.
Jeopardy! Player Bashed For Mispronunciation
This week on Jeopardy!, there was a contestant named Karan Menon. He is a data scientist originally from Edison, New Jersey. Isaac Hirsch won again for his fourth win in a row (and one day before his fifth win and an invitation to the Tournament of Champions. However, fans were still not happy about one of Karan’s answers.

With his wins, there are some fans who just realized why Isaac looks so familiar. This wasn’t the first game show that Isaac appeared in.
Here is where fans recognize Isaac Hirsch from before his Jeopardy! winning streak.
Isaac Hirsch Has A Game Show Past Before Jeopardy!
Isaac Hirsch has not only been a great winner on Jeopardy!, but he has also been winning fans over. He has a good sense of humor and always has funny stories. He is the opposite of the last big champion, Drew Basile, who remains polarizing as the former champion.

Drew Basile has watched his time on Jeopardy! come to a close. After winning seven straight days, Drew lost on Friday when he missed the Final Jeopardy! question. However, the good news is that Drew will be back on the game show for the Tournament of Champions.
That said, Drew doesn’t think he will be back on the reality TV series that made him popular to begin with: Survivor.
Why Does Frew Basile Not Think He Will Return To Survivor 50?
Drew Basile was eliminated from Jeopardy!, but not until after he won over $100,000 and qualified for the Tournament of Champions. Despite his time on the game show ending, people are already asking him about Survivor. He was part of the Survivor 45 cast before his Jeopardy! run.

There have been rumors that Jimmy Kimmel is considering leaving his late-night talk show. The reasons for leaving have to do with his sick young son, but Jimmy has now taken on a new gig that makes it seem like he is preparing to move into a new role in his career.

Emmy voting is over and now we wait. Gold Derby editors and Experts Christopher Rosen and Joyce Eng are here to share some anonymous ballots and look back at Phase 1 campaigns.
Nominations aren’t announced until July 17, but we have ballots from three voters, all of whom were eligible to vote in the program categories. Who did they vote for? Did they all fill out the max number of slots per category? What, if anything, can we glean from these?
See Experts slugfest: Our updated 2024 Emmy nominations predictions
Meanwhile, Chris rates his favorite thing: campaigns! Who ran the best Phase 1 campaign? Who had the most consistent talking points? (Hint: Rhymes with snacks.) How quickly did Netflix pivot to “Baby Reindeer” once it blew up? Who was he most impressed by?
Elsewhere, we discuss the possibility of a Janelle James snub in favor of Lisa Ann Walter for “Abbott Elementary” and more.

"Abbott Elementary” has finalized its plans for the 2024 Emmys, and all of your favorite teachers are hoping to get an A+ from awards voters. (See the complete list of Emmy submissions below.) Season 3 of ABC’s comedy series focused on Quinta Brunson‘s Janine Teagues leaving her second-graders behind as she began working for the school district. Also of note: 12-time Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper visited the elementary school as himself for a two-minute cameo, and he now contends as a guest star. In total, the program is vying for 25 Emmy Awards on the 2024 ballot.
All 14 episodes of “Abbott Elementary’s” third season aired this spring on the alphabet network. Other storylines included Janine and Gregory Eddie (Tyler James Williams) deciding to pause their romantic relationship, Jacob Hill (Chris Perfetti) breaking up with his boyfriend and moving in with Melissa Schemmenti (Lisa Ann Walter), and Janine believing her father could...

Lisa Ann Walter has brought a lot of herself to her portrayal of tough-as-nails Melissa Schemmenti on Abbott Elementary, particularly her Sicilian upbringing and the experiences of her teacher mother. This latest season also saw her character get closer to fellow instructor Jacob Hill, played by Chris Perfetti, whom Walter has invited over for holidays.
The most recent batch of episodes packed in a lot of plot given the reduced order as a result of the strikes, and for Schemmenti that means a deeper exploration of romantic entanglements, including rejecting a proposal from vending machine guy Gary (Bruno Amato) and getting it on with a fire captain (Mike O’Malley). Walter, in the middle of making banana cake, hopped on a Zoom with The Hollywood Reporter to discuss accents, Bradley Cooper, and being embraced by Philly.

The Bentonville Film Foundation celebrated the conclusion of their 10th anniversary year on Sunday with the announcement of their narrative, documentary, short film and episodic winners.
The annual fest amplifies female, non-binary, Lgbtqia+, Bipoc and people with disabilities’ voices in entertainment. This year’s event ran from June 10 to 16 in Bentonville, Arkansas.
Suze from Linsey Stewart and Dane Clark won the festival’s best narrative feature award. In their statement, the jury — which included Abbott Elementary star Lisa Ann Walter — noted that the film “captivated us with its tender, funny and charming portrayal of a modern-day odd couple. We were blown away by Michaela Watkins and Charlie Gillespie, who turn in wonderfully heartfelt and delightful performances. This is a film that showcases the power of compassion and the beauty of unlikely friendships.”
In the same category, Tokyo Cowboy received an honorable mention and Boca Chica took home a special jury recognition.

Abbott Elementary always spreads its wealth among the seven principal castmembers, but this has been a particularly robust year for Chris Perfetti, who portrays the lovably awkward, overeager history teacher Jacob Hill. In season three, Jacob broke up with his long-term boyfriend, Zach (Larry Owens), watched his best friend, Janine (Quinta Brunson), leave Abbott for a new job, became accidental roommates with his fiery co-worker Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter), hosted an Ira Glassian podcast called This Abbott Life, and got to witness an unexpected concert by Questlove (who also DJ’d the cast’s wrap party in West Hollywood) at the school’s second annual Ava Fest.
The recent Hollywood strikes lowered Abbott‘s episode count from 22 to 14, but the four-time Emmy-winning ABC mockumentary remained network TV’s sharpest comedy. Like his colleagues, Perfetti speaks with awe of the enterprise that executive producer Brunson has created. The scripts, he says,...

In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible educators may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don’t love the school district’s less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.

For the last three decades, the multi-hyphenate Lisa Ann Walter, who began her career in stand-up comedy, made her mark as a character actor in films such as Bruce Almighty, Eddie and Shall We Dance? However, for most millennials, Walter is best known for playing Chessy, the beloved nanny in Nancy Meyer’s The Parent Trap. These days, nearly a quarter of a century later, Walter has emerged in the spotlight on ABC’s award-winning mockumentary Abbott Elementary, where she plays the Italian-American spitfire Melissa Schemmenti, a second and third-grade teacher at an underfunded Philadelphia public school.

Forty-four years after “9 to 5” became a cinematic sensation and rally cry for women’s rights, stars Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin reunited to celebrate the Hollywood premiere of the documentary “Still Working 9 to 5.”
The original comedy followed a trio of office workers conspiring to put a check on their “sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot” of a boss, played by the late Dabney Coleman. In April, it was announced that Jennifer Aniston’s Echo Films was set to produce a “reimagining” of the movie for 20th Century Studios.
“We hope she has great success,” Tomlin told Variety. “It’s a hard nut to crack because the issues are somewhat different.”
“I hope she does it,” Fonda interjected.
“There’s still the undercurrent of the same kind of negativity towards females … [they’re] not easy-to-solve issues. So we’re very eager to see what they do,” Tomlin added.

The cast of Abbott Elementary has been working hard at Willard R. Abbott Elementary, but no one more than second-grade teacher Janine Teagues.
The main cast has remained mostly the same since the comedy's inception.
Quinta Brunson stepped in a different light as we saw her work in her new role as a temporary fellowship in the school district.
This gave Season 3 a little twist, following her trying to adjust to bureaucracy and her co-workers' happenings.

In the week since our 2024 Emmy predictions center expanded to include the guest acting categories, a strong consensus has formed around four potential winners from three different series. The one show that is expected to achieve double victories in this area is FX’s “The Bear,” which won’t have much trouble doing so if our users are correct about it taking up seven of the possible 12 comedy guest nomination slots.
The widely predicted guest winners from “The Bear” are Jon Bernthal and Jamie Lee Curtis, the former of whom was just nominated last year for the show’s inaugural season. The likeliest drama guest victors are potential Emmy first-timer Nestor Carbonell (“Shōgun”) and 2021 champ Claire Foy (“The Crown”). Foy would be only the third actress to win twice in her category for one role, after Patricia Clarkson (“Six Feet Under”) and Margo Martindale (“The Americans”).

[This story contains spoilers from the Abbott Elementary season three finale, “Party.”]
If there’s one issue viewers have had with the beloved ABC sitcom Abbott Elementary over its three seasons, it’s that Janine (Quinta Brunson) and Gregory (Tyler James Williams) have yet to take their working relationship to the next level, as fans have been shipping the pair since its season one debut.
After a painstaking episode 13, “Smith Playground,” in which Janine and Gregory’s plans to tell each other how they feel are thwarted by fellow teacher, Mr. Morton’s bitter warning to “never date someone you work with,” audiences began to lose hope. But in the final minutes of the season three finale episode, “Party,” which aired Wednesday night, the two share a passionate kiss at Janine’s end of the school year bash, putting an end to the tortuous will-they-won’t they dynamic between the teachers.

The Mouse House is bringing its Emmy-themed “Disney FYC Fest” back for the third consecutive year, kicking things off May 29 with an preview event for FX’s “Feud: Capote vs. the Swans” and ending with “Shōgun” on June 11. And like last year, it’s back at the DGA Theatre in Hollywood.

Welcome to Emmy Experts Typing, a weekly column in which Gold Derby editors and Experts Joyce Eng and Christopher Rosen discuss the Emmy race — via Slack, of course. This week, we wonder if some old faves can over-perform in comedy.
Christopher Rosen: Hello, Joyce! We’re back to laugh again about this year’s Emmys comedy race. This has remained a pretty stable race, so much so that not even FX seems concerned about “The Bear” and its status as the obvious frontrunner. The third season of the show comes back on June 27, after Emmy nominations voting has closed and well before final voting begins. It seems like Season 2 of “The Bear” is so far out in front that it might not even need Season 3 to goose its win potential. That’s maybe bad news for our beloved “Hacks,” which always faced an uphill battle in Best Comedy Series but...

Sheryl Lee Ralph and Lisa Ann Walter from Abbott Elementary got to call roll at the start of the Disney Upfront Tuesday, which allowed many of the stars from the studio’s movies and networks to sound off (in a video) before the presentation kicked off at the North Javits Center.
And what’s an ABC upfront without the voice of Walt Disney? Yup, he was (heard) there, too. Here’s what else happened at the afternoon shindig:
Emma Stone, whose Oscar acceptance speech for Poor Things was replayed during the opening montage, kicked off the event to remind everyone that the studio was founded more than 100 years ago. Her primary job, though? She was there to introduce Disney CEO Bob Iger.

Within the past week, Jennifer Jason Leigh (“Fargo”) lost and then regained her first place position on our Best TV Movie/Limited Series Supporting Actress Emmy odds chart. She is being given a run for her money by small screen newcomer Kali Reis (“True Detective: Night Country”), who maintained general frontrunner status from May 9-12 and is still our experts’ pick to win, as has been the case since May 3.
A week ago, Reis was also our editors’ predicted winner, but they have since gravitated back toward Leigh. Based on the forecasts of 2,400+ Gold Derby users, both women currently have 6/1 odds in their race, with their closest competitor being Aja Naomi King (“Lessons in Chemistry”) at 15/2.
The temporary toppling of Leigh occurred three weeks after “Shōgun” overtook “Fargo” in the Best Limited Series race. Since then, the consensus among our readers has been that the latter show’s best shot...

Bradley Cooper, who has 12 Oscar nominations, might soon add his first Primetime Emmy nod to his resume for playing himself on ABC‘s “Abbott Elementary.” ABC and awards strategists confirm to Variety that the studio has submitted the actor for guest comedy actor consideration for this year’s awards.
Earlier this year, the Television Academy changed the rules for submitting in the guest acting categories, stating, “A brief cameo appearance is not eligible for entry.” However, the vague description doesn’t explicitly state whether an actor like Cooper or even Kevin Hart, who appeared in last week’s episode playing himself over a Facetime call with Jeanine Teagues (Quinta Brunson), would constitute a cameo.
The rules further clarify the definition of a guest performer: “The minimum stand-alone and contiguous screen time for eligibility is 5% of the total running time of the submitted episode.”

Summer is just around the corner, which means school is almost out — including Abbott Elementary. Although Season 3 is on the shorter side following last year’s dual Hollywood strikes, with14 episodes in total, the hit ABC sitcom has still managed to pack in plenty of fun, drama, and laughs.
This season has seen major developments for many characters, from Janine’s (Quinta Brunson) district storyline to Gregory’s (Tyler James Williams) Garden Goofballs club to Melissa (Lisa Ann Walter) and Jacob (Chris Perfetti) unexpectedly becoming roommates and good friends. However, there’s one Abbott character who hasn’t gotten much time to shine lately: Ava (Janelle James).
