FOX today announced a second-season order for summer breakout Nation's Dumbest, the hit celebrity competition series that flips the traditional format on its head - because it's the only show where winning is the last thing anyone wants. Hosted by acclaimed comedian Jack Whitehall, the series will return to FOX for a new season of pop quizzes, physical challenges and classroom chaos, as a fresh group of celebrities compete to avoid earning the distinction no one wants: the title of The Nation's Dumbest. Nation's Dumbest is FOX's most watched summer debut in four years and highest-rated debut in three years. In addition, Nation's Dumbest is broadcast's highest-rated freshman summer series since 2022. "The smartest thing about Nation's Dumbest is that it never forgot the assignment: to have universally relatable fun," said Michael Thorn, President of FOX Entertainment Network. "Blending Jack Whitehall's wit with a class of celebrities fully committed to the joke made for a standout summer hit. Our partners at BBC have constructed an original format that's entertaining, accessible and distinctively FOX, so a sophomore season was a no-brainer." "I'm so thrilled at the incredible response to the show and am very excited at the opportunity to get a whole new class of celebrities to torment in season 2!" said Whitehall. "FOX has a long, distinguished history of broadcasting cultural milestones. I'm so proud to say that Nation's Dumbest is not one of them. We're thrilled by America's response to the first season and so happy with what Jack and our entire team brought to life. We couldn't be more excited to partner with FOX on a new season that's even dumber, even bigger, and even dumber," said Ryan O'Dowd, President, BBC Studios Global Productions Los Angeles. Based on a format from Montreux Films, Nation's Dumbest is executive produced by Ryan O'Dowd, Krystal Whitney and Jenny Groom for BBC Studios. Pip Wells and Pete Cooksley also serve as executive producers in season two, with Wells serving as showrunner. |

Carrie Ann Inaba is finally addressing the Dancing with the Stars drama after Val Chmerkovskiy was suspended and is calling for a “new lift rule.” The DWTS judge made controversial comments on the October 13 episode and called out pro dancer Jenna Johnson for a lift, which ballroom-dancing competitions strongly frown upon. “I have not spoken about what happened because of professional courtesy for those who are still competing, and we actually have standards and practices that keep us separated,” Inaba said in a recent Instagram post. During the episode, Inaba and Johnson had a tense exchange about the definition of a lift. Chmerkovskiy, who is married to Johnson, posted a shady comment on social media saying, “You almost saw Fresh Prince enter the ballroom last night.” The comment referenced Will Smith taking the Oscar stage and slapping Chris Rock to defend his wife. After the comment, Chmerkovskiy earned a one-week suspension, with BBC Studios calling the pro-dancer’s social media post “inappropriate” and not reflecting “the values or standards expected of anyone connected with the show.” Inaba shared in her new social media post that she had squashed the beef with Johnson. “I think a part of this ‘headline’ has missed a few important parts of what happened,” Inaba said. “I think it’s important for everyone to know that Jenna and I hugged it out after the Super Bowl show. Jenna was an absolute professional about it, and two women worked through the moment. It came to my attention later that Jenna was deeply hurt. So I also offered to speak with her at anytime. I have also offered to discuss the lift rule and how I enforce it. @sharnaburgess made a great video explaining lifts, assists and which dances allow and don’t allow them.” In the comments, Inaba continued, “I think in the future, a new lift rule should be created for next season. I think a session of with all the dancers and the judges in a room together to discuss the history of how and why Len Goodman, our original producers and I defined the lift rule and the what the purpose is which is safety and fairness. The show has evolved tremendously, the way the show is cast has also changed, and so has our audience and the way they consume the show. So, working together to create a better understanding between the dancers and the judges and our audience is important to me, as we move forward and is something I have asked for.” |

Susan Saint James, the husky-voiced, Emmy-winning actress who starred in such popular TV series as McMillan & Wife, Kate & Allie and The Name of the Game, died October 26 of pancreatic cancer. She was 80. Among her survivors are husband Dick Ebersol, the former President of NBC Sports and executive producer of NBC’s Saturday Night Live. In a statement, Saint James’ family described her as “generous with her time and energy, which she valued more than money, and instinctively drawn to whoever needed lifting up. She taught her children to pause, be kind and look out for other people. Born Susan Jane Miller on August 14, 1946, in Los Angeles, Saint James was raised in Rockford, Illinois, where she began modeling as a teen. She launched her acting career in a 1966 TV movie called Fame Is the Name of the Game, then booked guest roles in the series Ironside and, when the TV movie became a series titled The Name of the Game, Saint James landed a series-regular role. She won an Emmy for the role in 1969 and was nominated each of the two following years. In 1968, she had a co-starring role in Where Angels Go, Trouble Follows, the sequel to popular comedy The Trouble with Angels. Other TV episodic work from the era included roles in It Takes a Thief and Alias Smith and Jones, but her early signature role arrived in 1971 when she was cast opposite Rock Hudson in NBC’s light crime drama series McMillan & Wife, a highly popular program that had Saint James portraying the younger wife and partner in crime-solving. The show lasted for six seasons, with its finale on April 24, 1977, but Saint James had departed early over a contract dispute. Her character was killed off in a plane crash and the “& Wife” part of the title was erased. The show didn’t survive another season; by the end of her run, Saint James had received four Emmy nominations for her performance. Saint James remained a prolific actor following her departure from the successful series, co-starring with Peter Fonda in the film Outlaw Blues (1977), George Hamilton in Love at First Bite (1979) and Jessica Lange and Jane Curtin in How to Beat the High Cost of Living (1980). Saint James and Curtin would reunite four years later in what would become career high points for both stars. Their CBS sitcom Kate & Allie premiered on March 19, 1984, with the two stars portraying divorced mothers (and childhood friends) with children who decide to share a home in New York’s Greenwich Village. Saint James portrayed Kate McArdle, the more free-spirited of the two, with Curtin as the higher-strung conservative Allie Lowell. The combination proved a winner — and would be echoed decades later in the Jane Fonda-Lily Tomlin comedy Grace and Frankie — and the series, created by Sherry Coben, was a hit with critics and audiences, appreciated for its intelligent humor and warm, groundbreaking, chosen-family approach. Saint James was nominated for two Emmys for her performance as Kate, with Curtin nominated for three and winning two. In all, Saint James had eight Emmy noms — scoring one in five consecutive years from 1969-74 — including the win for her first. In game shows, Saint James was featured on episodes of Name Droppers, The Game Game, Celebrity Bowling & The Hollywood Squares. Following Kate & Allie, Saint James largely retired from show business — she’d appear in guest roles periodically — devoting her time to raising a family that included two children from her second marriage, to make-up artist Thomas Lucas, and the three sons she had with third husband, the Saturday Night Live executive producer Ebersol. The couple met when she guest-hosted the NBC sketch comedy in 1981. Tragedy struck on November 28, 2004, when a private plane carrying Ebersol and sons Charles and Teddy crashed at the Montrose Regional Airport in Colorado. Dick and Charles Ebersol survived, but 14-year-old Teddy was killed, along with a pilot and flight attendant. After her son’s death, Saint James often devoted her time working with parents who had lost children. Saint James is survived by Ebersol, four children, seven grandchildren and sister Mary Mercedes Dewey.

New Zealand Faces "Tipping Point" |
|
Celebrity Tipping Point NZ premieres on TVNZ 1 on Monday evening. The local adaptation of the well-known British format takes a celebrity angle: each episode of the series features New Zealand celebrities competing not for personal gain but for charities of their choice. The producers promise a broad sweep of local celebrities — so broad, in fact, that they’ll be scraping the bottom of the celebrity barrel. It is the charitable element that, as became clear during the first week of filming, sets the emotional tone of the programme, transforming a standard daytime quiz show into something far more personal for each participant. |

Walter Koenig, who played the spirited Russian crewman Pavel Chekov in the original Star Trek TV series, has died aged 90. The actor was a mainstay on the show as the eager and earnest navigator of the Starship Enterprise, from season two in 1967 until it ended in 1969, later reprising his role in the six original cast movies from 1979 through to 1991. In the mid-late 1990s, Koenig portrayed a very different character, the ruthless Psi Corps telepath Alfred Bester, in another sci-fi space opera, Babylon 5. His Star Trek co-star George Takei led the tributes on social media on Monday, writing: "Walter was more than Chekov. He was a writer, a teacher, a thoughtful man, and a loyal friend." Representatives for Koenig said in a statement given to the BBC: "Today we mourn the passing of Walter Koenig, whose talent, warmth, and unforgettable performances left a lasting mark on generations of fans around the world." They confirmed he had died "of old age at home in North Hollywood" on Sunday night, "surrounded by his daughter and niece". Koenig's Chekov added heart and humour to the adventures of the crew, led by William Shatner as Captain James T. Kirk. Takei, who played Hikaru Sulu, added: "Rest well, my dear friend. Keep navigating a steady course." Born in Chicago and raised in Manhattan, Koenig was the son of Soviet Jewish immigrants whose family had lived in Lithuania. He studied at the famous Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre in New York, alongside the likes of James Caan, Christopher Lloyd and Dabney Coleman. His big break came as the capable young Chekov, who would often joke that everything was invented in Russia. The character was introduced to appeal to younger audiences, with his Beatles/Monkees-style mop-top haircut. But Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry's studio also publicised the role as a response to criticism in Pravda, the main newspaper of the Soviet Communist Party, about the lack of a Russian character. This was a claim Koenig later denied. The show, which aired during the Cold War and Space Race between the US and Soviet Union, imagined a future in which nations worked together to explore the galaxy, and Chekov's Russian heritage fitted that ideal. Koenig once said that the character's purpose on the NBC show was to "set out the bones of the plot and let McCoy, Spock and Kirk fill it in", according to the Hollywood Reporter. He was arguably more integral to the movies, being nominated by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror for his work on The Wrath of Khan (1982) and The Voyage Home (1986). Koenig's seventh Star Trek film appearance was a brief one in Generations (1994) - mainly a next generation film - and he later voiced President Anton Chekov in the modern series Star Trek: Picard in 2023. He also wrote an episode of the original show's animated series spin-off, in 1973, titled The Infinite Vulcan. A published author, Koenig's other on-screen credits included Columbo and Futurama. Earlier this year, his performance in the short film Mr Fleischmann saw him collect the Platinum Award for best actor at the 2026 Independent Shorts Awards, in recognition of his craft and career. He married Judy Levitt, who appeared with him in three Star Trek movies and Michael Straczynski's futuristic space opera Babylon 5, in 1965. And they were together until her death in 2022. The family suffered a personal tragedy in 2010, when their son Andrew, who played Richard "Boner" Stabone on the ABC sitcom Growing Pains, died by suicide aged 41. Koenig is survived by their daughter, the actress and screenwriter Danielle Koenig, who worked on the animated series Star vs. the Forces of Evil. She was married to Jimmy Pardo, who appeared with his father-in-law during a Star Trek-themed episode of the short-lived GSN series "National Lampoon's Funny Money". .

Peggy King, a television star and singer who rose to prominence in the 1950s, has died. She was 96. King died Sunday after a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease, her publicist Alan Eicher announced. She had been residing at the Saun ders House assisted living facility in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania. King was best known for her appearances on The George Gobel Show from 1954-57, where Gobel nicknamed her “Pretty Perky Peggy King.” She won an Emmy in 1955 for best female singer for her television work. She also co-hosted the 1958 Emmys. Throughout the 1950s, King appeared on numerous variety programs, including The Bob Hope Show, American Bandstand, The Steve Allen Show, The Jack Benny Program and The Perry Como Show. She also guest-starred on classic television series including Maverick and Dragnet. King signed a contract with MGM in 1952, leading to a singing cameo in Vincente Minnelli’s film The Bad and the Beautiful in which she performed “Don’t Blame Me.” She then appeared in the 1955 horror-comedy Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy. As for as her music career, King performed “Count Your Blessings (Instead of Sheep)” at the 1955 Academy Awards. After Columbia Records executive Mitch Miller signed her to a long-term contract, she released two best-selling albums, Wish Upon a Star and Girl Meets Boy. DownBeat and Billboard named her best new singer for 1955-56. Composer Arthur Hamilton wrote “Cry Me a River” for King, but Miller refused to let her record it. King later performed the song throughout her career. Born on Feb. 16, 1930, in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, King graduated from Ravenna High School in Ohio. She began singing on the radio in Cleveland before joining bands led by Charlie Spivak, Ray Anthony and Ralph Flanagan. In 2010, King was inducted into the Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia Hall of Fame. She also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Feb. 8, 1960, among the first group of honorees.

She is survived by her daughter, Suzy Rudofker, and her son-in-law, Dwain Goforth. |

After Warner Bros. hit The Vow with a cease-and-desist earlier this month, Chris Harrison has addressed the legal drama. The former Bachelor Nation host, whose new dating show premieres Nov. 11 on Fox Nation, said it felt “personal” after Warner Bros’ recent letter accusing the reality show of copyright and trademark infringement in a teaser released last month. “I don’t see them going after the 50, 60, 70 other relationship dating shows that have come on in the time that I was there or since I left,” Harrison told USA Today. “There’s been one show that they’ve gone after. Is that a coincidence? You be the judge.” In the letter, Ahassim Rashid, VP and intellectual property counsel for Warner Bros Entertainment, called out the alleged unauthorized use of the studio’s IP in the teaser, citing images of red rose petals “falling in the background with text in the foreground,” noting that WB had licensed that motif to third parties for separate advertisements and promotion. Rashid also objected to the use of the words “The Bachelor” in the teaser, followed by the image of a man in a tux holding a rose. Also cited was the image of a “mansion in the background meant to evoke the iconic ‘Bachelor Mansion.'” The letter added that the teaser “represents a plain attempt to capitalize on and ‘ride on the coattails'” of The Bachelor. In response, Fox News Media’s executive VP and general counsel Katherine Moran Meeks contended that Warner Bros’ attorneys “wrongly assume that Warner Bros. holds any intellectual property rights whatsoever in a falling roses motif or in the words ‘The Bachelor’ when used colloquially to describe a single man.” Harrison’s upcoming dating show comes after he parted ways with the Bachelor franchise in June 2021, following his support for a contestant amid controversy over a racist photo she previously posted. |

Anika Rashaun, the Reality TV star who appeared and competed on MTV’s The Real World and The Challenge and later became a professional matchmaker, advice columnist and dating coach, died October 1 of breast cancer. She was 34. Rashaun’s death was announced by friends on social media. Cyndi Rich wrote on Facebook, “Anika shined so bright. Being close to that light as one of her closest friends was a true blessing. She is a vibrant soul. I’ll love her and treasure the 16 years of memories forever.” Rashaun’s friend Tiara Ramos wrote that Rashaun was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer last summer. “My world already feels dulled and blurred without her,” Ramos writes. “The urge to pick up the phone and FaceTime her is a reflex I can’t shake. Knowing the pain her husband, her parents, her loved ones, and her community are feeling right now makes me sick. I am angry. I am heartbroken. I am devastated.” Rashaun first appeared at age 24 on MTV’s The Real World Seattle: Bad Blood in 2016 and, the following year, returned to take part in The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions. For The Real World 2016-2017 “bad blood” season, in which Real World housemates were eventually joined by people they considered nemeses, Rashaun was paired with her ex-boyfriend Will. The synopsis for that season notes, “Ex-lovers Anika and Will go together like oil and water: The yin yang pair dated for three years, and during that time Anika was constantly annoyed that Will couldn’t match her dominance.” After the season ended, Rashaun, a New York City native, moved to Los Angeles and, building on the social media following she attained through the series, built a lifestyle brand that would eventually include matchmaking and dating advice. She remained cordial with Will, though lost touch after the show. In 2017, Rashaun returned to the MTV universe for The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions. She was eliminated in the third episode. Theo King-Bradley, who appeared in both of Rashaun’s seasons on Real World and The Challenge, posted a tribute on Instagram. “I’ve been doing everything else to keep my mind off the fact that you’re not here. I’ve genuinely been sad as hell since hearing you passed. I’m sad I didn’t get to see you one last time. But the last time and conversation we had with each other I can cherish and play it back in my mind to smile.” After her stint on The Challenge, Rashaun returned to her career as dating coach and lifestyle podcast host. According to her Instagram, she attended school to become a licensed marriage and family therapist. Rashaun married her boyfriend Kyle Rehn on Valentine’s Day this year. Complete information on survivors was not immediately available. |

Skydance is giving some employees the option of a voluntary buyout in a “one-time offer” as the company brings together Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery following the closing of their $110 billion merger. “As we bring our teams together, we recognize that not everyone will see their future here, and we respect that. To give eligible employees the option to move on in a way that works for them, we are introducing a Voluntary Buyout (VBO) Program,” co-CEOs David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz told staff in a memo. “Those who qualify will receive an individual communication with their personalized details and terms, and a window to decide whether to accept this one-time offer.” In addition to the voluntary buyouts, Skydance is also adopting a mandatory, in-office policy of five days per week. “We truly believe this is in the best interest of our company and our people. We’ve seen the benefits firsthand at Paramount, and we want every part of Skydance to share in them,” the pair added. “While many of you are already in the office five days a week, we understand this may be a significant change to the daily routines of others. To give you time to plan and adjust, we will take a phased approach by location. You will receive ample notice before changes take effect, and we will work closely with managers to support you through the transition.” The moves come as the company is targeting more than $6 billion in cost savings, which will include an unspecified number of layoffs. Skydance executives have said the majority of those savings will come from “non-labor” sources, such as rationalizing its real estate footprint and merging streaming tech stacks. “Please know we don’t take any of this lightly. We are clear about what we’re building: a company that tells the stories people around the world love, embraces new ways to connect with audiences, and leads the next era of media and entertainment,” Ellison and Kreiz said. “We have the talent, the creative firepower and the ambition to do it, and we will get there together. Thank you for your commitment, and for the creativity and passion you bring to your work every day.” Skydance Corp. (NYSE:SKYD) named six executives to lead its unified advertising business on Friday, following the $110 billion Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger completed this month. Jay Askinasi, Skydance’s chief revenue officer for advertising, outlined the structure in a memo, Business Insider reported on Friday. The company’s combined portfolio includes Paramount+, CBS, Warner Bros., HBO, HBO Max and CNN. Danielle Carney will lead U.S. sales, while Jill Steinhauser will oversee ad partnerships. Christine Hong will head revenue operations, and Chris Brady will lead Skydance Media Labs, the report added. Ed Romaine will oversee ad marketing, while Evan Giamanco will lead product strategy and measurement. Steve Ellis will remain as chief operating officer for advertising, a post he has held at Paramount since 2022, and as integration lead. Lee Sears will continue to lead Paramount’s international advertising business while executives evaluate Warner Bros. Discovery’s international operations. Ryan Gould and Bobby Voltaggio, ad sales presidents at Warner Bros. Discovery, will "continue to partner" with Askinasi through the fourth quarter, the report noted. Advertisement "This team reflects how we intend to work: with clear ownership, fewer layers, and leaders who are close to the work," Askinasi told staffers, according to the report. He said the company will organize around how clients plan and buy, and use shared data to make faster decisions.
