We’re starting to a see a bizarre revival trend in which shows like Will & Grace completely ignore their finales in favor of a comeback. So too is Roseanne confirmed to ignore its meta-twist ending, because what’s Roseanne without John Goodman’s Dan?
Every revival brings with it the inevitable question of additional seasons, and NBC is addressing its Will & Grace future early. Ahead of the long-awaited revival in September, NBC is already committing to a second (technically tenth) season.
The best Sylvester Stallone performances can already make you cry, so This Is Us might deliver a one-two punch in Season 2. The breakout NBC drama has tapped the Rocky icon for a paternal Season 2 role – yes, as himself.
Hacking scandals are everywhere these days, and a recent HBO attack that allegedly leaked Game of Thrones scripts and several comedy episodes may be bigger than feared. Sources say the data extends to many more times what Sony suffered in 2014, and is now being investigated by the FBI.
Once upon a time, Stranger Things seemed like it could easily say goodbye after one season, regardless of a few loose ends.

Just as Westworld got Season 2 hype rolling early with a first trailer, so too is HBO proving surprisingly forthright with its breakout hit. We’ve long known Season 2 would premiere at some point in 2018, while a new HBO announcement seemingly narrows to a spring return.
Reese Witherspoon is no stranger to TV these days, and it seems she’s brought a Friend. Jennifer Aniston will join the Big Little Lies Emmy nominee with a new scripted drama about the New York morning show scene, which is sure to draw network competition.
It’s increasingly difficult to remember any weeknight as a TV destination, let alone Friday. Nonetheless, Hulu will let you relive your TGIF nostalgia, adding full seasons of everything from Full House to Hangin’ With Mr. Cooper.
